Looks good in my opinion. I could take a while to get used, but you should not be worried about it, you look good.

I think Bella hit the nail on the head. In your after picture, the first thing we see is your eyebrows and eyes, which are very handsome. In the before picture, we first see your high forehead.

Being sly focuses attention on your best features.

When I first joinedhe site I thought we would get a free gift or bonus points for recruiting people into slydom. When I found out we didn't and this greatly disappointed me and I felt cheated, I wrote to Tyler several times to raise my dissatisfactionabout not receiving an incentive but then the penny dropped. I don't actually need to tell people they look great if they shave their head if they don't look good. So honesty is the best policy!


On seeing your previous pics it was obvious your hair was going, you still had enough to get by but it was going and the was starting to look a bit ragged. The fact that you have shaved it is a brave decision but a decision I think has made an improvement in how you look. The sad fact is you're actually a bloody good looking bloke and therfore quite sickeningly can not only pull of the look but really do have the looks to pull it off (note Chris Daughtry, Chip Wade as examples of this).
You have a great shaped head, it enhances your features and you look younger than that guy that was holding onto his hair for grim death.
 
You will take time to get used to it. Others may time to get used to it but as an observer that has absolutely nothing to gain, I think you have greatly improved how you were looking.

Just wondering, Markus.....what did you use to do the deed?

I am 9 days in and feel just the same way!  So many kind words here, so much encouragement.   I was SO scared and insecure about my new look when I joined.  Now I'm more confident than ever!

Hang around, keep posting and you'll end up paying it forward, I'll bet!   O0

Markus, you look great! Glad you finally made the plunge. A shaved head looks very natural on you. As I commented in one of your first threads here, you have a great head shape for a shaved head, and I'm glad I was right.

Looks tremendously better than holding onto the hair you were losing. You're obviously an attractive man and the ladies will dig the confidence inherent in choosing to shave your head. And it looks good too, don't forget that!

Makes you look older?

Why is looking older a problem?

Ming, for example, is only seventeen, and is glad that the SBG look has given him the apparent maturity he needs for effective despotism.

Nobody cards Ming.

Just wondering, Markus.....what did you use to do the deed?

just saw how rapidly my hair was thinning in the front and I didn't want to wait and not know how it would be being bald - so I thought I take over control and go already bald (by choice)

Your bonus is on it's way!  


In all kidding aside, Marcus it looks great!  Stick with the 30 day rule and I'm pretty sure you'll be saying, "man, why didn't I do this sooner?"

Markus that is exactly why I shaved my head except I wasn't thinning  O0
