actually it wasn't difficult at all, I think it's because I knew it sorta had to be done for the sake of peace of mind and again thank you you dudes are awesome, doubt there's anywhere else around that makes people feel so welcome and chilled out

Can totally relate to what you are saying.

I wanted to shave clean. Fed up of thinning grey hair. Went bald for a few days - just to see.

But the guys on this forum encouraged me to keep the sly look. Well, nearly two months later ...

haha I had the grey too even at 27 I hit the trifactor, Grey,Thinning and Receeding think my gene pool coulda used a little more chlorine!

But I get you with the two months thing, like I know they say about the 30 day trial but i've pretty much got my mindset that this is my look from now on. Even if I wanted to grow it back it'd still be just as patchy in the same places and i'd end up at square 1. But that's just my personal take on it obviously everyone is different some guys won't take to it quite as easily, think it helps that i've lived a life of extremes so it's sorta become the status quo to adapt to massive changes very quickly

Going grey at 27 ? Thought I was bad going grey in my mid 30s. You beat me to it ! But not grey anymore !!

Sounds like you have the right mind set for your new look.

Keep the forum posted with your shaving routine. As you enjoy your new look, it's the routine which become the thing. Choice of razor and all the stuff which you can buy and use to keep your bald appearance looking in great shape.

You've earned those grey hairs, but you've shaved them away.

I recommend the HeadBlade razor. http://www.headblade.com/ Been using this everyday for the last 6 weeks. It's a razor with wheels, and you drive it over your head. If you're in the UK, you can order online via Amazon or elsewhere. For best result, use it with the HeadBlade slick.

If you live in London, like me, you can pick all this stuff at Carter & Bond. http://www.carterandbond.com/. Their shop is near Paddington. And on my way home. You give 'em a call, say what you want, then go over and collect. They'll appreciate new bald custom.  :)
