Right now my husband uses an electric razor and has to shave his head EVERY morning. He has tried the Nair for men (even though it's not intended for use on the scalp) and it broke him out. We've thought about waxing, but even then he'd have to let his hair grow out long enough to wax first. Isn't there an easier way?!??

There is a depilatory specifically designed for facial shaving called Woltra.
You may also want to apply Kalo hair minimiser after shaving to try and slow down the hair growth. After a few weeks of use you should find that the regrowth is finer and thinner, making it much easier to remove. Over time, the growth cycle of the hair should slow down, but it does take a long time to achieve this.
Anotheg good product is the HeadBlade, which should give a much closer shave than an electric razor.
Check out the sources below for info on each product.

What is the best way to shave your head?
Most use Gillette Mach 3 blades because they shave closer with few if any nicks. (We have also received glowing comments about the new Head Blade. You can read more about them at "headblade.com).
If you have sensitive skin and are subject to rashes, avoid shaving against the grain and shave in the direction that your hair grows (or used to grow).
Aftershave should be used to avoid rashes.
I've heard of some people waxing their head but they have had mixed results. (One man stated that they didn't have to shave again for six months. I find that hard to believe. If you have tried this, please let us know about your experience.)
The absolute best way to shave your head is to ask your wife or girlfriend to do it. They love to do it and it feels good.
Use Aloe Vera lotion to keep that young healthy look and don't forget your sun block if your going to be in sun. (See our Medical Alert page)
If you want to try Nair or Magic, you must be careful not leave it on any longer than recommended, otherwise it burns. The only other alternatives are painful or expensive.
Electrolyses eventually gets rid of your hair permanently but it is painful.
Laser treatments will permanently remove your hair, but it is expensive.
Waxing is painful and it only gives you a 1 to 3 weeks of the stubble free look.
You may want to try Hair Away, which is featured on our site, however, we have had no testimonies as to its effectiveness.

An individuals hair will grow at the rate it grows, regardless of how you remove it. The chemicals & waxes pull it off below the scalp level, which is why some people get ingrown hairs. Daily shave is the best option usless you really want it permantly removed.

yeah ask him to see a dermatologist who will ask him to consult a surgeon who will help him remove the unwanted hair from his head by laser surgery or laser techniques.it is a pretty simple technique and less or no pain is expereinced.
