Greetings from South Africa
« on: May 09, 2012, 02:56:51 AM »
Hi all. Been lurking for a few days and decided to join. I'm Mike, 34 year old dude from sunny SA.
I've been noticing my progressive hairloss for about three years and finally took the plunge and went sly a month ago. Weapons of choice: HeadBlade and Gillette Fusion.  I was a bit concerned as to how my colleagues would respond, but so far only positive comments and I think it looks way better shiny and smooth. No reason to look 34 from the front and 54 from the back...
This is a great forum with huge amounts of excellent advice. Really glad I found it.

@Blitzed: Dankie my ou. Dit was inderdaad 'n moerse besluit! Maar ek is tog bly ek het dit gedoen. Bly jy nou in die VSA?
To the rest of the guys: apologies for the Afrikaans private discussion. I assume Blitzed doesn't get to speak his home language too often.

Welcome Balddoc.   Great to have you on board and great country.  Lived in Joburg in the 1980's.    Still hoping to get back some day and visit friends in Kloof and Ermilo.     Sure you will like the group here, great people with great advice.
