Finally shaved it!!!! My honest reactions
« on: July 09, 2007, 08:53:41 AM »
I finally shaved my head on the 4th of July, as I had mentioned I was going to do.  Well to be 100% honest, I shaved all the way down with the clippers without the guard.

I gotta say it looks good.  Haven't had one bad comment yet... but I got to be honest.  Sometimes I look in the mirror and feel like I look weird...other times I look in the mirror and feel I look great.

Is this only in the beginning?  Will I ever really get 100% used to it?  I gotta be real, sometimes my confidence feels kinda low with the cut.  But I think I'm just being obsessive about it, I tend to do that.  If you wanna see pics, go on www.myspace.com/locombia1   

scroll down the page to see the comments, some girl posted a bunch of pictures from this weekend.

On a side note, I burnt the hell out of my head.  But its weird, its like only in patches.  It's been like that for about three days and hasn't cleared up much.  Any advice on this?  Thnaks guys, I'm positive I'm gonna stay like this, I just wanna be able to accept it 100 % and enjoy it.

Scrape it, Dawg!

You'll rock the look, man.

Yes...the mirror is a trip when ya first shave....believe me we ALL went through the same thing.  It won't be long (especially when you Bic it) that you'll pass from insecurity to full blown Boldness and wanting to strut yer bad bald self everywhere, man.

Looks awesome Chico! Like Paulie said, give it at least a month and be consistent about shaving it.

I guess I am one of the fortunate few that didn't have that second thought after looking in the mirror for the first time. In fact, it put a smile on my face.  :)

Lookin' good man!  O0

Chico, it's lookin' great bro!   You'll get used to it, just give it a couple of weeks.

People are not limited by the circumstance that they are born in. They are limited by the size of their dreams. Show them that their dreams can have no limits and in turn their accomplishments can be limitless.

Looking sly brother

I gotta say that the 'stache and goatee sports that sly look very well. I saw your before pic on your site and it is a big difference. Like you were born to be sly.  O0

Wow man, thanks a lot...I just need some positive female reinforcement.  So far I've just had girls say "it looks good" like in a somewhat fake tone.  I was also shot down numerous times at the club this weekend...and the chicks many times had a scared look....its not like that didn't used to happen, lol...but this happened a few times...left a damn impression on me.  This might all be in my head, and I may have gone up to them somewhat unconfidently/unsmooth, which caused my to get shot down...don't know, but I just need like one chick to genuinly say it looks good...and to give me some ass for pete's sake...
