It took a week  for my dome to get a natural color  or get under the sun 15-20 minutes a day and it will happen   - -just be careful with the sun  -use  sun screen 30 or better

Good luck and welcome  - -enjoy the freedom  - - with no wig  - - - -

Let us see your handsome dome when you get a chance - -get a photo posted

Good to hear of your decision. Bald is Bold, Bald is Bodacious, Bald is Beautiful!

Nice call Ruttman! It's only my second day today, so I know how your feeling! I bet your spending a lot more time looking at yourself in the mirror then you were before!
Congrats on summoning the courage to do the deed, I had to summon a third ball to do it myself yesterday, and now I couldn't be happier. Good going, and lets see some pictures!

Well, it's been a week and the reaction has been 100% positive! Got kudo's from everyone at work. One guy at work told me that I had the "personality" to pull this off. I don't know what that means, but I'll take it as a compliment.

My wife, son and daughter love it. My daughter say's she likes me much better this way.

I will post another picture when I get some more color. I am using a headblade (gift from the wife) and it's shaves real close.

I'm thinking I am going to like being sly!

Good look, and best of all--you're free of the rug merchants.  Seems to be a lot of guys ditching those dead animals lately O0.  A couple of weeks ago I was surfing the net and found one site that said that the rug industry as a whole has had a decline in sales, 30% I think the number was. 
Guys are coming to their senses, younger guys aren't as easy to get hooked on paying for a fake patch.  The natural way seems to be "growing" too--just look around.

Nice to meet you, Ruttman!  I'm new here as well and I've found mega support from the community here.  Being unable to tan all my life has actually paid off by my head matching all of my other skin right off! And my sunscreen habit will extend on up to my head now.

Welcome Ruttman, good to have you with at SBG's. Sounds to me like you made the right decision and you're loving it. Enjoy the new found freedom!
Keep at it with the HeadBlade, you will get better and better.

Big thumbs up on ditching the fake "hair hat".     O0

Welcome to Sly Bald Guys, Ruttman . . .

Hey, I've been away too long, there's lots of new baldies I don't even know yet!

I need to review the Introductions thread.

Welcome Ruttman!  As a former customer of the Hair Club I can tell you that it will only get better over time!   No more appointments for cut ins, no more having to remove and clean your system,  just freedom!   

I live in Portland and had the same problem with a lack of tan on the top of my head.   Jergens Natural Glow did it for me.
