Day 3 of my 30 Day Rule
« on: October 12, 2016, 12:39:07 PM »
Today marks my 3rd day on the 30 Day Rule.  I have been getting thinner on top since I was 25.  I kept getting closer and closer with a clipper cut for a few year and then in 2011 I decided to clipper cut it myself without any guard.  Everyone seemed to be OK with it but a few made remarks.  I really wanted to shave my head smooth years ago but didn't have enough nerve to do so.  Sunday night I decided that I would go totally smooth.  So far no one as made any comments to me but everyone does look like they are trying to figure out what's different.  I love reading the posts on this site and look forward to being a long time Sly Bald Guy!!

Looks great! I'm sure you will stay sly well beyond the 30 days.
Bald by choice, and loving it!

Yeah, I can see by that smile that you don't need 30 days to get it.  You have already "broke the code"!

Today is my 1 week of being totally sly.  I love it and have no plans of ever letting it grow back out.  I am now thinking about my goatee.  I have had one since I was like 20 but have never let it get very long.  Have kept it trimmed fairly close.  I really like the way you guys look with fuller beards and goatees.  I think I will try letting mine get fuller.  I have to say I feel much more confident in my appearance since last Monday morning.

Great news, sir. I am glad this is working out well for you.

I wore a closely cropped beard for over thirty years, then cut it down to just a goat for another five or so. I decided to let it all grow out just over a year ago. I don't intend to go back.

I haven't trimmed my goatee since last Monday which I would normally do at least 2 or 3 times a week.  I think your beard looks great on you.  I haven't ever tried growing a full beard.

Looking good and your smile shows you are pleased and comfortable  with the shaved head.  Agree growing outthe goatee/beard would add another dimension.
