We are Bald&

We are a new kid on the block, but consisting of a team with over 20+ years experience in established Fast Moving Goods Companies. My name is Joost Dijkstra, founder of Bald&. 

How it started

The story of Bald& looking back, in reality already started  in my twenties , dare I say more that twenty years ago!, when male pattern baldness started to show. As with many young men, coming to terms with the fact that balding was inevitable, wasn't easy for me. Yet around my thirties I decided to shave my head and discovered that I should have done it much earlier.

Finding good products  that are a great fit for your bald head however proved to be difficult. Most skincare products were not a good fit; most of them too greasy or to 'harsh' causing an even shinier head. And most hair products, like shampoo were, well, uhm unsurprisingly made for people with hair, even the ones claiming to be beneficial for the scalp. 

That's why I decided to develop a full range of natural skincare routine products, specifically tailored to the needs of your bald head. After all, many of us have a good skincare regime for our face, so why neglect your scalp?

Bald& your scalp

At Bald& we believe that being bald is about being carefree, not about being free from good care. 

The skin on your head is unique and has differences vs the skin on the rest of your body

• The biggest difference between scalp and facial skin is that the scalp  has more sebaceous glands (ie. lipid and sweat) than any other part of the body. 
• In addition, the scalp has a Lower Barrier Function, meaning it’s not very proficient at maintaining and replenishing hydration compared to skin found in other places. And even more harmful, not very well protected from UV-radiation coming from the sun.  If you’ve got  hair that will protect you from the harsh effects of external elements, why would you need a high barrier function, right?. 

All of our products focus on the specific needs of the scalp which may differ from the occasion and the routine. Adapted to the needs of your daily skincare routine, the first 2 products are now available for pre-registration. Meet our Bald& No Hair. Dailies:

1. Bald Head Shampoo: Bald& Headwash: degreases & moisturizes your scalp. Ideal for use on a daily basis under the shower or after shaving your head.
2. Bald Head Moisturizer: Bald& Day Cream: a natural day cream that absorbes quickly, providing a matt-skinbarrier protection every day.
