ELI5: why is the skin on a bald/shaved head so shiny compared to the skin on the rest of your body?

bald guy here. your hair normally soaks up most of the oils your head produces, thus giving your hair a shiny luster. its especially noticeable if you haven't washed your hair in a few days. if you have no hair the oils tend to just sit there and shine.
