Hi and welcome!

You are looking great with your buzzed hair. Try a clipper shave first if you are worried. If you like it you might go all the way because there is not much difference between razor shaved and clipper shaved (just a weekend of growth).

It's normal to need time to adjust. After all your appearanced changed significantly. And you might feel a little nervous seeing people and wondering about their reactions. Best thing is just to go about life as you would have. You'll keep looking at your reflection and soon it will be normal.

You look great with the buzz cut.  If you like hair, I'd keep it that way.  I loved the buzz cut too but couldn't really do it because my hair was so thin on top.  I'm 2 days into being sly and love it because I don't have to worry about the thining.  And I used to leave the top longer to help the coverage but wind was my enemy.

I don't know how your hair grows but I knew once I did this it was permanent.  The hair on the top of my head basically stopped growing a couple months ago.  Even though I wasn't cutting it, it was barely growing and was very slowly thinning more.  I was losing my bangs even without cutting.  So once I did the deed, it wasn't coming back.

So far, my mother had a really bad reation to my new style but no one else has.  So I told my mother it was her fault I had to do it.  Then she said it wasn't her fault, it was my fathers fault.  Then I reminded her it takes two and she married him ;)  She said I need hair.  I can't believe she would like me better with the bozo look.

You definitely suit the short buzz cut, but I think you will also suit having a shaved head. Just go for it, mate.
If you don't like it, it will grow back quite quickly.

It looks cool like that.

It's up to you if you want to go sly or not but I don't think you need to. I think it looks great the way it is, but if you are curious about sly even just the fun of putting a razor over your head - you could do it on a Sunday and if you didn't like it by the Friday or so your hair would be already starting to have that action man/velcro type feel to it.

You look great with the buzzed head.It actually really suits you.You went from a pasty faced looking kid to a badass with a few strokes of the clipper! I'd keep the look if I were you. O0
Be who you are and say what you feel because those who mind don't matter, and those who matter don't mind.

I was going to reply to your original post and suggest that Jason66 had some pretty sound advice, However scrolling down further revealed you'd already done the deed! It looks good man, You rock the look!
Bearing in mind winter is on it's way it's probably best to stick with the buzz cut for now (as opposed to going sly) See how you feel come spring next year.. ; )
