Not many reactions so far

Have been about a month or so what may be considered bald. No guard buzz. Reactions so far: many people don't seem to recognize me! Bald head and a full beard vs. thin hair and a soul patch. I went to an annual meeting recently and that was the reaction. Many guys didn't recognize me at first. But strangely enough women didn't have that problem. I got one positive note. One.

More importantly than the lack of reaction....how do YOU feel about it after the first month?

Remember, it's a big change for you, but not for the rest of the world. Your feeling is all that counts.

What was it I wrote! Time doesn't fly after all, it's only two weeks now not a month.
But you're right. More important is my feeling. Love the look, love the velcro feel. Not too keen on wearing hat now even though it's getting cold.

Your avatar tells me that you are in a euphoric state over your recent change in looks!

Guarantee the guys who "didn't recognize you" were probably just jealous. You pull off the Sly look really well, Iconic.
Been a month for me now. Only one comment. Yep. One! Fortunately it came from "she who matters" and it was VERY positive.

Update on this.
I paid a visit to a larger city last week. Well, non verbalised positive reations are well appreciated here
I love it. Also, while not getting head rubbed, someone touched my head out of curiosity but without asking my permission.

I just buzzed my hair without clipper gaurd this morning. Down from a 2 gaurd. I too am really liking the velcro feel. My wife was really supportive as was most of my chidren. Only one freaked out.
I think you look good.
