Sal, from another bald and beaded guy to another, welcome! It is a great look on you! You will find that you will come to love the look on you! It is better than watching the hair on your head fall out!
Beard? Fine. But I'd keep it firmly in control. Hair below the ears should not distract from the splendor of no hair above them. Moderation in all things is the way to go (except, of course, failing to keep the dome slick),
Dude, you look like a f*kin boss.
I'd pay to have your beard.
So I did my 30 days and now I'm in it for the long haul.
Thanks for all the kind words. I don't think I realized how insecure I was about my hair until I realized how good your compliments made me feel.
I really like the look, and the maintenance, while more than I'm used to, isn't that bad; I've got a pretty simple technique and routine down.
You guys have been great; this forum is really helpful for guys who are sitting on the fence, trying to figure out on which side the grass is balder. Terrible mixing of metaphors, I know... But from confidence-building to tips and tricks, this is the place. Thanks again.
Yeah man, it looks good on you. That's a powerful beard you've got too. My hair wasn't thinning quite as much as yours but it was still enough to make me self conscious. I'd say you did the right thing. Good work!
