Can't be sly because of huge forehead

[Sly Red]

Shave the hair off smooth and there's no more forehead, just head! 

That last tuft of dark hair is drawing attention to that area of your head.

Your forehead is in proportion with everyone else's.

The problem is in your head -- not on your head. Stop obsessing about a problem that's not really there.

Hi Anton, you are a good looking guy. You are just over obsessing with your forehead. I took a good look at your picture, if you shave your head smooth, the problem with your forehead will disappear, you have a nicely shaped head.

Yup.  Everyone else is right.  Shave it so the dark area on top isn't calling attention to that area and you will be good to go.  Sorry but there's nothing unusual about the size of your forehead.  You're gonna have to find something else to obsess about

So I have shaved it with a razor as suggested. I think it does look a bit better without the dark patch on the top although you can still see it a bit.

This is the first time I have shaved and the back of my head is really stinging. Any suggestions on how to avoid this? I have a brand new razor (Gillette) and wet my hair with hot water then used shaving cream.

Thanks

Looks a lot better. Your skin will eventually toughen up and get used to the blade.

Thanks for the new pic, you look great. As for the stinging, I suspect you applied too much pressure on the razor when you shaved, be gentle the next time, light short strokes.

Ok once again I'm going to sound like a total dick, but I dont see a difference between his profile picture and his new picture (a few posts above this one). The hair patch on the top of his head is slightly less pronounced, but apart from that, its the same.

Have I missed something?

It does look similar but I think even slightly less pronounced looks better.  I suspect he didn't to as good of a job as he could since this is his first time shaving.  I think if he gets better, it will look even better.

I use very slight pressure with longer strokes.  If I do a lot of shorter strokes, I'm more likely to get some irritation.
