do u see and like the difference?

yes I'm very happy with the result - no sign of MPB shadow no matter what lighting etc..but only worth all the pain if I can get a manageable way of maintaining it..let's c how it goes. will keep u posted over the next few weeks.

Dude....... WHOA! you've got big ones.........that's all I've got to say...................

Update as it's been 3 days since I tweezed my head..the scalp's still a bit sore and hair regrowth is sparse of very fine, thin hair...not visible at all except from 1inch away & I don't let anyone come that close, he he!! Can't even see them in mirror, the only way I know is from touch, overall look's still completely bald.

Did my first maintenance tweez this evening & surprisingly didn't hurt AT ALL  I could feel hair been pulled out but without pain & took only 20 mins, coulda finished in 15, wanted to be absolutely thorough  then scrubbed a bit of medical alcohol to disinfect.

So far it seems this is very manageable - even easier than shaving each day!

Guys, u only need to take the pain of the first tweez - that's all..after that seems like the ride's easy & I feel such a big difference personally... I'm ecstatic!!

Like I have said about waxing and lasering , you can keep it.

actually it's neither, if u read the topic it's tweezing

btw I'm not an idiot either, if I like tweezing, then deal with it..not twisting ur arm or anything.. this post is to help anyone who wants to tweez or considering tweezing.

First off, I can read. I was referring to my other posts regarding subjects other than shaving.
I put them all in the same category, because I think it's a waste of time and money.

Shave your damn head and deal with it! Nobody said you were an idiot, obsessive I would definitely say, but now that you mention it, maybe you are.

Well, that's your opinion mate & ur entitled to it.. at least I'm not so damn sad with my life that I've to go around in forums looking to put people down & impose my own narrow way of thinking - u know what, I'm actually happy!! & I'm done with arguing with u...

That's right mate, that is my opinion, and when you have to come in and brag about tweezing your darn scalp, that's a sad life my friend. But as long as you're happily obsessed, good for you.

Ok guys, let's not ruin this thread.   I think it's great that someone is sharing his experience
with tweezing.   If after a month or so it no longer hurts who knows I might try it.  I would love
to but of course if it will look good (all parts growing at the same time, not having hairs growing in one
part and another nothing growing yet), and has little pain.

But I do want to point out where things went wrong in this thread.   NewYawka may not have
intended to say "idiot" but unfortunately that emotion figure or whatever you call it ...... .....stands
for "idiot".   That's where kdog got the impression from.   

Anyway, nobody is sad and has no life.    Sharing experiences is really great, especially when it deals
with removing hairs on one's scalp.  After all, this is what SBG is about.

I'm only 4 days in so will keep updating over the next few weeks. The head's no longer sore even though I did a maintenance tweez last night (didn't hurt at all). It does still look good even after 3 days growth - regrowth is barely visible and something no one notices. Before my next tweez (maybe this w/end), i'll post some pics of the state of affairs on top!

2nd maint tweez yesterday night...had more growth than Wed and a bit painful, also took longer about 40 mins (just cos I was being over picky and going after each follicle!)...even though I promised not to tweez at the back below the ears, I did it anyway!

Took longer this time, but still worth it..

Didn't get time to take before pics though, flat out at work - had to work through the weekend closing 3rd quarter!!! 8 days doing 12 hours a day is exhausting!

  means idiot???  Crap, I've been using it wrong.  I thought it meant crazy. 

Kdog, keep posting.  I don't plan on tweezing, but I like reading about other's experiences on things like this.  It keeps the options open.

Thanks for the detailed report K.  I'm not considering doing that but it's nice to see all different approaches.
