Today's the Day
« on: April 18, 2011, 08:21:00 AM »
In 7 hours, I'll be sly.

As I mentioned on the Intro forum, I'll be playing Oliver Warbucks in a local production of "Annie." This evening I'll finally shave the last of my fuzz away. The rest of the cast got haircuts and colors at last Saturday's rehearsal, but I kept my (very shortly buzzed) top fuzz and goatee because I was away at a speaking engagement. Now it's time to catch up and look the part.

I'm actually really excited. Really. I'm looking forward to seeing the difference. And pardon me if this sounds creepy, but I'm looking forward to running my hand across my smooth scalp. Just curious what it'll be like.

:D

Not creepy at all ... it's been nearly two years for me, and I still love the feel of running my hand across my bare scalp  O:O

Creepy??? He)) NO !! that's one of the BEST parts.  It just feels so good.  And, most likely, you'll have this weird sort of numb feeling on hte back of your head.  My guess is within a few days you'll be like most of the rest of us and start looking for a razor once you get just a bit of stubble poking through.

One word of caution - BE VERY AWARE OF THE SUN.  Even just a short buzz has done alot to keep the scalp shaded and it can burn quickly.  Keep a sunscreen on it when outside and let the color build up naturally over time.  The Jergens Natural Glow will speed up evening out your coloring but it will not protect you from the sun.

Enjoy the experience, I bet you're going to love it.  And, oh yeah, let's see some before and after shots..

All done. And I like it! My wife has been VERY nice -- if she hates it, she hasn't given any clue.
 
It went fairly well. Took a little longer than I thought to get it really, really smooth for the first time. But no major cuts or burns (well, a little one on my chin when I took off the goatee, but that's because I started going more quickly and carelessly).

Sly looks great on you.  Great job for your first shave!

You'll get the process down once you learn the landscape.  Shaving the scalp takes a but longer to learn than your face did - much more variation in the direction of growth.
