I think the article hit the nail on the head.  I was just thinking the other day how my comb over had affected my life.  No swimming, most outdoor activities, no self confidence.  It has been almost a year since I shaved my head and love it.  I went skydiving, going scuba diving in Cozumel in 2 weeks and I have been on several dates and just not worried about how my hair looks.  If more guys read this forum they would be so much happier.

 I don't know a single person who hasn't agonized over their looks in some way. Even though my choice of a no hair-cut is not out of lack of hair, I can only imagine what it would feel like if I spent years having who I was defined in part by my looks, and then to have those literally fall off.


So Aggasi had some less than stellar moments in his past. We all do. He was a amazing tennis player and has become an even more amazing humanitarian. Look at the work he's doing with his school in Las Vegas. He's changing the world for those kids and for that alone he deserves a standing ovation.

Andre, hair-free was the right hair choice for you, and for all your SLY brothers here at this forum. Life is so much more enjoyable when you don't have to deal with hair on a daily basis.

Keep on, keeping on Andre. O0

He looks great SLY and if his "confessions" can steer some folks off the broken road and onto a smoother ride in life.... good for him.

I think it was pretty brave of him to 'fess up about the wig, and about agonizing over his hair loss.  The story about the disintegrating hairpiece is funny and really sad at the same time.  I can't see a lot of world class athletes copping to that, either. 

He'll probably help some other guys out there feeling trapped under their hair systems.  Good for him.
