I am back

[Frontier Guy]

Personally, I think it looks very natural. You will be much more at ease if you listen to your inner voices than those around you (regardless of how well-meaning they may be).

@Mr Jules: I have the intention to stick to the 30 days rule. I shaved daily for over a week now. So anybody who sees me sees me bald. And the beard grows too

Good. The bald look suits you well. 

If you really want to grow a beard then do not shave it for at least 30 days. Then you can decide what you want to do.

You looked good with the shaved head before, but BETTER with the combination of the shaved head and beard...

I haven't seen many of your posts before, so forgive me if I ask: are you balding, or is this BBC?

[beardedbaldgerman]

@Mr Jules: Another 30 days rule? ;-)
@benlen: Most people would consider me BBC. My hair is a bit receding at the temples and a bit thin on top. But this is more a problem for me than for others. Most people would say I have a full head of hair. But I could only see the big forehead and the thin hair on top.

Yes, another 30 day rule. 

The 30 day beard rule is easy. Do not shave your beard for 30 days !

Similar boat to me––but if we notice it, that's what matters. If shaving makes you feel better about yourself, do it.

Also, I find it odd that your boyfriend is so anti-shaving––does he love your hair, or YOU?

Your BF is just used to seeing you with hair... perhaps its a big change for him... he will come to accept it fully in time...as for your mother..... well mothers will be mothers.... they worry.... she will come around as well. good luck dude and I think the beard really compliments your sly head....

You look wonderful  - -shaved BALD - - -You are a grown up  - -do what makes you happy - - -All the others will get use to the BALD HEAD

[leighmundo40]

I think that you really suit your new look, the beard looks great at that length.

Your boyfriend will get used to it eventually, it's not like you got a lip plate fitted or a HUGE tattoo of Lady Gaga or anything!

0mm,

You look great sly. I like the beard too. I agree witht he others. It is your head. DO what you want to do. They will get used to it.

[gutsygirl]

The sly style does look excellent on you IMO. I notice the longer I'm sly, the more folks around me accept it which is good because being a slyette comes with more weight than being a sly guy I think.

Anyways hope it gets more comfortable for ya as you continue to keep it sly.

I'm proud of myself because I just updated my fb pics with my sly self so its the first time fb has seen me really sly except in avatars. The reactions were both positive and hilarious - some of my friends just about fell out! Haha.

[beardedbaldgerman]

Thank you for all your support. This really means a lot to me! Just to let you know: I have no plans to grow my hair back.

@benlen: You are right: It only matters what it means for us.

[boston501]

that's the spirit! fantastic news

[beardedbaldgerman]

I am still sly. Shaved again this morning. It is now over two weeks (17 days) since I went sly. On Sunday I visit my parents who have seen me with three days of growth but not sly (and even that did not please my mother). I think I will shave on Saturday but not on Sunday so that the shock is a bit smaller
