New guy here, looking for advice
« on: August 03, 2015, 08:41:53 AM »
Hi guys,

I am 23 years old, noticed that I'm balding 2 years ago. So yesterday I buzzed my head for the first time, here are some pics from "bad" angles
. Thinking about shaving it with a razor, what do you guys think? Since I'm off the job for 2 weeks (on vacation), I am trying to adopt a new look.

I think you will look great shaved! And you're so close already. If you really hate the shaved look it won't take long to grow back to where you are now.

Thanks for support! I think I will do it after a week, because I'm afraid it would be too pale right now and I would get sunburned quickly.

Go for it.  You are close enough already, and it you don't like it, it'll grow back.

You look good now and you are almost there anyway.  I would suggest shaving it.  It will look equally good or better.  You don't need to worry about the sun if you use sunscreen or wear a hat if you're outside for long periods of time.

I vote shave it. You'll love it. Sunscreen is cheap, so no reason to delay.

Similar hairline and facial structure to mine.  You'll have no problem with a shaved head.  There are a lot of guys in their early twenties with shaved heads.  It's a good look!

like others have said here shave it - it will look good.  Or at least buzz it close.

If you are thinking about it, the thought is not going to go away until you do it.

If you want to shave, I say grab the razor.
