Yup, I can't grow a nice looking goatee.  When it comes out I look like that Larry the Cable Guy.  Wait, his comes in even better than mine.

So should I keep it trim and neat or go with my proud bare chin?

Try growing one and if after a week or two you're not happy with it, just shave it.

My only issue with the goatee is that everyone does it...  Honestly, next time you're walking around, look at the bald guys and more than half will have goatees.

Between goatess and total clean shaven, they make up most of the facial hair for bald guys.  That's why I'm running the soul patch... just something a little different!

Rob likes to be "different". At least that's what he calls it.

My wife had a bunch of her friends over last night for a scrapbooking gig and her old college roommate kept on rubbing my dome. She liked the feel but (like a lot of others) wasn't sure of the look. There were several other gals that gave my nugget the rub. I liked it. I am guessing the dramatic change in appearance takes some getting used to.

The greatest thing about shaving the dome is the fact that my scalp is completely itch & flake free!!!! If nothing else, that is reason enough to maintain the SLY look. As I've said before, this time of the year has been historically brutal on my scalp condition, but the shaving has made my dome pain free.

Have a great Tuesday,
Schro

 :D  Chad, you've got  a really good, strong chin, so, if the goatee doesn't shape up in a couple of weeks, shave it off. Guys with weaker chins [myself and RozorX] need the camouflage. Schro, you make a good point about the cleanliness of the bald, regularly shaved dome. I'd add that, since shaving to the skin, there is no dandruff or spray net gunk on my pillow-cases, collars, or under my nails. Wife loves that, as well as the look and feel. Professor Melon

Not all of us are, myself I am growing a beard.    And coloring it brown because the yellowish blonde didn't show up well and i'm not fond of that color.

I would wear a soul patch if I could pull it off.  The problem is that mine would be a soul dot...LOL  It's too small to be left on  it's own.
