I currently just shave my head so it's basically a stubble...
« on: December 07, 2014, 03:22:15 AM »
I use a #0000 on a Wahl which is basically very light struggle. Like a day and a half growth or something like that..

I do that because I still have a decent amount of hair, and my balding crown still has hair, it's just thinner compared to the rest so it blends in..

but I noticed bald men often have hair in the back of their head while having none in the front..is it because they don't shave it every day or every other day? like a completely shadow free bald head like a stone cold steve austin.

Most balding guys, even when shaved, will show some form of shadow on the sides and back. This is because the hair is stronger there...The only way to get a true shadow-free head is with tweezing, laser treatments, or hope to go gray early.
Even when the d is removed, the devil is still evil.

Stone Cold Steve Austin has always had a shadow-free bald head ever since he first shaved his head. That is because when he did have hair it was blonde.

A little bit of time in the sun and some color on the head should minimize the shadow some. 

The color of my head has blended in to the color of my face so it's pretty even.  But I do still have a slight shadow, having had black hair.

Dlab, I looked at some of your post regarding SMP, and sorry bro, I just don't get it.  Why would I want the illusion of a shadow?  I shave my head smooth and like that there is no shadow up front.  the slight shadow I do have is in the back.

In my opinion, those two dudes that had it done in the two YouTube videos were better off leaving their head alone.
