Oh Yeah!  No one will be staring at your thinning hair anymore.  They will be looking at your eyes - and that chin!  Man that chin says; "Go ahead, mess with me; make my day!"

Badass indeed!

Welcome to the board, Balderenz.

I think you made the right decision. Looks good.

I fully agree here! From someone who is losing his long hair soon, its good to see an example from someone who trades this for a shaven head, it looks great!

Thanks guys! I'm really happy with it.. still getting some mixed reviews from friends but i think its because some never even noticed the thinning. Also, The only issue i had buzzing was the back of my head, i had the clippers on an angle every time trying to get back there so it was pretty uneven. Luckily i had a friend who was coming over and i just made her finish the rest of it to even it up. Any tips to do it yourself and keep the clippers even with your head?

Usually, when shaving your head with a no-guard clipper or with a razor, it may take a few times, but most of the time, you just have to go by feel. It's a little hard doing it holding a mirror in one hand, and clippers in the other, but some people have a three-door (mirror) medicine cabinet and they just fold the two end doors in at an angle which allows them to see the back of the head real good...Or you can just get the help of a friend/buddy. Of course you can always shell out a few bucks at a barbershop.

It's takes some practice but you will learn about your head shape, in time.  So, practice makes perfect.  By the end of 30 days it will be easy

Great improvement!
