Acronyms
« on: July 13, 2012, 09:40:57 PM »
Ok, new member here.
Question, is there a glossary here for all the acronyms used on this site?
I'm not dense and can figure most of them out, but there are some that elude me.
Thanks,
Keith

I don't know if there is... post the ones you are struggling with and someone will be able to help you. It is a good idea to make one though if we don't have one.

The ones I see commonly, which are mostly obvious, are:

MPB - Male Pattern Baldness
BBC - Bald by Choice
DE - Double Edge (as in razor)

The term "Norwood" was new to me until I Googled it and learned it defined various patterns and degrees of balding.

Thanks FrontierGuy.
I got the MPB and DE but BBC, lol the one that pertains to me, is one of the ones I couldn't
figure out. There were more I saw, and forgot while I was frantically searching for answers to fix my
screwed up scalp.
 "vast knowledge base of a brilliant membership"
I concur wholeheartedly!!

YMMV....your mileage may vary

BBS...baby but smooth

HB...headblade

DFS....damn fine shave....  Very close shave but not BBS shave

Thanks for sharing the meaning of BBS Warhawk. I always like my head to be baby butt smooth.  :)

No problem...Kalbo.  There is nothing like a BBS shave.
