I like the matte look also and I'm not embarrassed about it... when you're as hot as I am, the extra glare will also lure in the "undesirables"!   :D

I love the shine man.... a guy at work told me to put a hat on my head, the shine was hurting his eyes.  So being humorous as I am, I got him a pair of sunglasses to he wouldn't be so blinded.  :*))

I love the shine! Heck, I wish there was some kind of way, that my head could shine, at night time, with no lights. Now wouldn't that be great? 8)

Shiny for me.  My wife says it looks better.

Definately shine for me. I love watching the airplanes flying to the airport head my way thinking it's a runway beacon.  :D

But seriously, shine on for me.  O0

This skinhead wants maximum high gloss and high glare.  Im a policeman and work days so I hit my bald head hard with sun block.  It makes my head shine with a glare that is blinding.Citizens ask if I actually wax and buff my head!

Bad boyz Bad boyz.. What you gonna do?
What you're gonna do?
What you're gonna do when they come for you?  :popo

A police officer that is sly is much more intimidating in the eyes of a fresh "defendant"  then someone sporting hair (or a bad comb over).  My landlord (and fellow tenant) is a cop for the Providence, RI police, totally sly, and I see him every day leaving for work. I can tell you this, if I didn't know him as a friend, I would NEVER want to be pulled over by him.  :x!

I'm thankful that I'm on the good side of the K9 he has living here.  O0

Watching a 100 pound German Shepard who could rip an arm off of a suspect in an instant and my dog, a 39 pound Beagle, romp and play together in the back yard is fun to watch.

But once they start sniffing each others butts..... game over.

Guess it's one of those perks you get for obaying the law.  :popo

I drive by a Sly CHP officer on my way to work everyday.  He's always got someone pulled over.  I've thought about pulling over to give him my card, but I don't think he'd appreciate the sled rolling up on him while he's handing out tix.

I don't know what is about the sunblocks, regardless of brand, and it must obviously be the active ingredients, but they make make my head head shine like a light bulb.  Much better than Headlube.

I'm still on the fence re:  shiny or matte.   it seems to have a natural medium shine as it is .   i think I like it .    but I'm kind of still 'floating' in my "newly sly high," so I'm currently loving everything about it.  Aloe gel seems to keep it at a fairly matte state.  Any 'natural ingredients (oils, etc.) that promote shine without having to by specific products ??

Shinier the better. I like to have my head shining like a chrome plated glass jar.

Headlube Glossy works well as does Almond Oil

Since I did my last post here, I think I've fully gone over to the shiny side.  I like the look and it really seems to say "I'm bald and PROUD !"  I'm now looking for ways to enhance the natural medium shine i seem to have.   Cold aloe gel?  Almond oil?  any other ideas?  I'll try them!

Just had to pass along something funny that happened today.  I picked up my 2 sons from their summer day camp and as soon as I walked in the door of their school my son ran up to me to tell me about the poem that he wrote.  It seems that they were studying poetry as part of the summer program that keeps them up on their school work.  Well along with reading poetry, they were all supposed to write an original poem of their own.  Well, my 11-year-old (who is really not into the poetry thing) waited till the last minute before they were supposed to read their poem for the class.  He did some quick thinking and came up with:  "I am not blue... My Mom is not red... But my Dad has a really shiny head".  Well the whole class of elementary kids just loved it.  There are several that always call me "Baldy" when I pick up the boys.  Even the teacher thought it was very creative.  "That's My Boy"..
