Btw, scars are cool. I have them all over my head. 8 stitches here, 10 there, 4 there... Buzz the "hair" you have down to at least a 2 or shave it. You will love it. The hair cut you have now isn't doing you any favors.

Much better--you can, if you want, stop by a Wal-Mart or the like and pick up a clipper w/ guards, usually #1, 2,3 & 4, for about $10-14, and take it to a #1 yourself.  And, when the day comes for you to go sly, take off all guards, clean the rest off, shower, lather and "do the deed!"  [Loads of instructions in "Shaving Your Head" board.]  It hasn't been said so far, but when you finally do put the blade to it yourself, it is such a rush, words just can't express.  You can have the barber do it, but part of this is gaining authority over your own appearance and nothing, I mean nothing, compares to the first shave--taking your time, and cleaning it off.  Wonderful, a moment you will always remember.

You are really going to like this, we promise.  And #1 feels better than #2, and Sly, well that's just the tops.  It only gets better O0.

 O0 Get rid of it all. After looking at your pictures, I am convinced you will not only look better but powerful/sly without the remaining fuzz. Just try it. If, after 30 days, you're not a happy, you can always regrow what's left. Best, Prof Melon

Wow, you were serious!

Isn't it a huge relief to have taken that first step?

Multiply that times 100 and you have an idea how liberating, empowering (and just plain cool) going 100% slick sly is.

Congratulations!

Huge! I didn't think I would have any problems doing it myself but I stood in front of the mirror this morning and just couldn't. So that is when I decided to go let someone else do it. Now I don't know why it was a big deal. I think doing the #1 next will be no problem. I guess I was thinking about it to much.

Exactly, but not a big thing, almost all of us have been there in front of that mirror, doing everything we could think of to see what we'd look like.  You're really doing great.

Good job.  Now that you're down to a #2 and are already comfortable with it, the next step is easy.  Take it to a #1 next.  It may seem really, really short at first, but it only takes a week to grow back to where you are now.  But you'll most likely adjust to the shorter look before it does.

Congratulations! It is already a big improvement if you ask me. Like the rest say, why don't you try it a little shorter next time. You will probably like that even more  :)

AWESOME !  We all knew you can do it!  Keep buzzing it tighter.  Then no guard.  Then razor.  Sly awaits you just down the hall in the bathroom !  You will find your way !  Then surprise your wife and take her to dinner + a movie (or whatever) and proudly show off the new look next to your beautiful lady !   ---Stasiu

We seem to be on a SLY roll here...who's next to step up and off the fence?

Part of the deal is once you go for it, you become an ambassador for others!

A definite improvement, but take it down to a .5 or zero, and you'll really like it.  Then it's one more step to totally smooth.  Come on, you know this is where your headed, so hurry up.  And also, welcome to the site.
How is that Hopey / Changey thing working for you?
