Show us your beard!

You are fortunate @Semi-Sly to have very good facial hair growth, so any beard style works for you.

@Semi-Sly I really like the cowboy stache with the flattop. it's a great look. I'm going back to a mustache over Christmas break. Why did the barber suggest the mustache? Did he figure it was time for a change for you?

I was getting the "itch" for a change and my regular Illinois Barber  suggested shaving the beard instead of the head.  He really thinks that it is my "duty" to be the "flattop fashion icon" (haHa)

My Florida Flattop Barber has now retired,  I am now up in Illinois  for a month for the holidays and my regular barber who does the world's best flattops hooked me up on Wednesday.  He gives the world's best High, tight and brutal horseshoe flattops!!!!  When I go back to Florida for the four winter month's I won't have anyone available to do the flattop for me.  I am not sure what to do.  I thought about going back to the sly look but my Illinois barber doesn't want me to do that - he says that then I will have to go through a long growing out period in order to restart the flattop.

@Semi-Sly , I've found that I only need about 6 weeks of growth to do a decent h&t flattop. So you could go baldie in Florida for a while, and start growing before going back north.

I'm tring a h&t recon right now. Keeping the sides and back shaved and a #2 on top.

I find that it takes me at least two months to go back enough to start a flat top, but I could still wear a beautiful bald head for two months and then spend the next two months. Let me grow back that would work. I just need a lot of encouragement I guess I?ll have to let you guys keep on my case to do it.

Do it for us @Semi-Sly !  Show of the smooth sly head for a couple of months (and post us some photos), then grow back your amazing flat-top for those of us that can't grow back, and those like me that could never have a flat-top because of my hair texture.

@Semi-Sly , I've found that no matter many times I grew my hair back, when I start thinking about shaving my head I can't get it out of my head until I finally shave it. It takes up way too much of my thoughts. And it feels so amazing when my head is smooth again!

I know what you mean.  It is on my mind every day now, but I certainly do not want to do it until New Years.  The only reason that I do not want to do it at all is because it takes me 8 full weeks to grow enough hair to get the flattop back and that 8 weeks drive me right round the bend!!!

But I just came home from a funeral and found myself envying a couple of beautifully shaven domes.
