Used to have hair down to my waist, now I'm sly
« on: June 27, 2013, 04:42:44 PM »
Hi y'all,

I'm 26 years old & I'm a graduate student at the University of Alabama. For the last 13 years of my life I had really long hair. Mid-back or longer. I was a total metalhead (still am). I eventually realized that I was letting the length of my hair define me. I thought it was time for a change. So a week ago I donated it all and kept a short buzzcut. The new cut looked good on me, but as I'm sure you can guess, my mind started to wander towards going sly.

So here's me, after shaving my head for the first time. I used a Headblade ATX and had zero problems.

I browsed the forums here for the last week, working up the courage to take it all off, so I want to thank y'all for being so welcoming to new posters and new people who haven't made up their minds yet about shaving.

Pics!

I'm about to put on some sunscreen and head out. Just wanted to say Hi and introduce myself. Thanks again.

Looks good, do you like it? Have you got any long hair pics for the contrast?

Welcome to SBG !

WOAH !  That slyness looks great on you !  Just get some sun (don't forget SPF lotion) and you are set with that facial hair.

Watch out ladies ! ;D

Great story, sir.

You are the guy I envied all through college. You look great with the long hair I wanted then, and you look just as great Sly.

Consider yourself very blessed, sir.

Whichever charity it was that received your gift was very fortunate indeed.

And welcome to the Sly fraternity/brotherhood!

Looks like a nice choice.  After all that hair, your scalp was in the shade and looks a bit pale, but you know, it won't be long before you get some color in there and you're all set. Good thing it's summer and the color will take quickly.  As others have said, don't forget the sunscreen to prevent a burn.  You just want a tan, not a burn.

You'll like the convenience of a bald head.  Much quicker to prep for the day than with the long hair.  You still stand out in a crowd.

Welcome. Thanks for posting your story.
