Title: It finally happened...
Post by: jbrit25 on February 09, 2016, 06:29:39 AM
I've been sly for 5 months. I was looking through some old pictures yesterday and I couldn't believe how weird that I look with hair. So went and asked my wife to look at the pictures and she agreed that I look weird with hair. I leave you with a quote from a bald wise man "Anyone can be confident with a full head of hair. But a confident bald man - there's your diamond in the rough."

I'm with you on that! However, I have the funny case of having to wear my Teacher ID around my neck at all times at school, on which is a picture of me from the beginning of the year with a full, thick head of hair and a bald face. It's become a funny little joke that my current look is the exact reverse of my picture!

Quiet Dan, I see the thinning in the first picture (didn't look that disastrous), but your after with the full beard and glasses looks much better! (but of course we all would say that :))

Concerning name badge .... my office made a new badge for me after I shaved my head. I walked in and said, this badge photo does not look like me anymore.  Will you fix that?  And the guy at the desk got out the camera immediately and made a new badge.

OOh Dan;  that before photo is scary compared to the new you!

My vote is that you look the best in your avatar photo - clean shaven and without glasses.  It is definitely your younger and healthier look!

and gagged with duct tape!

with the before I was trying to show both how much both the back and sides were going up top in the one photo, directly from the front it looked like there was a tuft in the middle of the bald, and from the back just looked bald. It was certainly time. (i was also trying to avoid putting a cute couple photo with the ex-gf up)

So your hair loss was even worse than in the photo above? If so, you must have gone through some tough times!

Seeing myself pre buzz days makes me wonder what I was thinking. Wish I had found the confidence sooner.
