First post. I found this board by researching Headblade's products, so I ended up here.

I've embraced losing my hair, even though it's just starting to thin. About a month ago, I caught a look at the back/top of my head in a security monitor... Immediately I wondered who that fat balding guy was. I haven't started to lose it, but I was starting to get thin in that monk spot. Thinner than I'm comfortable with anyway.
So a couple weeks later, I went to the barber and trimmed down to a No. 2 guard all over (1/4-inch) to see if my noggin shape would support shaving it. About a week later, I shaved it all off.
It's been just over a week now, and so far I love it. Wife loves it. Coworkers have all been complimentary (except one who jokingly asked if I lost a bet - said she really supported the decision once I explained the reason why).
Used some of the Headblade stuff for the first time today, and I can easily see the widespread love. Good stuff.
