Jdog...just like with the whole headshaving thing getting in your thoughts...this has for you and sounds like you really want the shadow gone....
you may end up doing it....Fransisco did, and it looks friggin' awesome, did you see the close up? Yea, the Thomas dude did have thinnin hair, but he did MAKE himself that clean....
You know, i have thought about it too...will i ever do it, who knows, but is sounds like something i could live with doing to myself...i want to be bald for the rest of my life...i've been this way for 13 years now...what I'm going to one day say...I want hair...
never!
Have some shots and go for it bro...i say START on the worst part...the sides...that way if you can't finish it, it'll just look like a killer bald fade...like our friend Rob6!
Later dog and good luck.....I know you're gonna try it!
