Hello
« on: December 07, 2013, 10:47:45 PM »
Hello everyone...I found this site looking for solutions to my blotchy dome. I've never really cared to use any type of moisturizers for my face or hair products even when I had hair, but it seems like its time to do such things.
I've been going bald for awhile now...lets say the past 5 years and I've kept it clipped close since I heard this..."hey that comb-over is looking offical" That was my wake up call!
Anyhoo I enjoy being close clipped and I'm just too lazy to do the entire shave thing, but I'll see what happens next.

I've read quite a few of the posts and I'm really surprised by the useful information given in responses to posts...I'm looking forward to reading more and starting a few of my own posts.

Welcome, Mike (another Mike!).  You look good in your photo.  Keep it buzzed down.  When you're ready, the razor and the shaving cream will do its work.  Enjoy the forum.

Welcome to the Forum, Mike!!

I was never much of a face and head product guy but in the last year or so I've found that high quality products really make a difference for me.

Hey Mike, welcome to SBG!

Welcome Mike, good to have you join us. The clipper buzz looks good but I'm sure once you do the full blade shave you're gonna love it.  O0

Welcome Mike- the full on razor shave is like nothing else but you still look great with the clipper. When I get resistance or am too busy I ease into the clipper look with no guard and then it gives the illusion of some stubble for those who think I am too shiny.

Welcome Mike!  I too did the buzz look for a year before shaving completely bald a month and a half ago.  You'll find lots of useful information here and a great support system.
