New Guy - Second Week of Smoothness
« on: July 16, 2013, 10:12:00 PM »
I would like to first say thank you to everyone that is here on the site. There is a ton of helpful information here and a lot of helpful people (Very - Very Nice).

I woke up a couple weeks ago and just did it.

Other than the 2 tone color on my dome (the part that has never seen the light of day was overly pale).  I am however happy with it.

My first task was to get a little sun... Problem... I got burnt very quickly and easily and it did not take long at all  ::)     - - - - I live in Florida.

A little peeling and tender dome for a couple of days OK now.

So far everyone I have seen wife, kids, coworkers all is good. Working on a good routine to shave, each time I shave I get better and better.

Welcome to SBG!  Congrats on shaving your head.  Being in FL you should have an even tone in no time.  Just make sure you wear sunscreen!

I like the double meaning of that phrase, Ophiuchus.

Very glad you are here. Congratulations on going Sly, sir.

One post, thousands more to come! Welcome. Please continue to share your story to encourage others.

The two tone won't last long.   The shaving routine will come right along.

Post a picture when you can.  It's always nice to demonstrate how nice a bald head looks.

Welcome the sly side of life!
Life has three aspects: Paradox, Humor, and Change.

Paradox: Life is a mystery; don't waste time figuring it out.
Humor: Keep a sense of humor, especially about yourself. It is a strength beyond all measure
Change: Know that nothing stays the same.

Great job going Sly!   As a fellow Floridian, I have burnt my head a couple times too.

Thanks for the warm welcome.

I really like the site.

Funny thing... Yesterday I looked a some pictures my wife took of me about a week before I went smooth (Sly).

WOW!!! huge difference.

My wife mentioned she never wants me to go back to hair  8)

Good going! Yes, after 3 weeks my s/o said she can barely remember me with hair.
Bald by choice, and loving it!
