Happy Holidays, all!
I don't post much...it's just the way it is...but, I check in fairly regularly and my moral support is always there.
Today, 12/29/15 marks the 4th anniversary of my "joining the sly club".
Hardly seems that long ago....
I wasn't balding...was just looking for something different.
For those not sure yet....
After I had finished shaving for the first time.....I looked and thought, "Wow man, you look weird" as I had had long hair for years.
I got some reaction (truth be known, I still get it from time to time....but it's rare)...
And for quite a while....not sure how long, exactly, every time I looked in the mirror I wondered what the hell I must have been thinking...
But that slowly gave way to the fact that I liked how it looked, and I liked the new freedom, and convenience it gave me with regard of not having to worry about bad hair days. (I mean...like it or not....I'm now consistent!
)
I was recently looking at some pictures from before 12/29/11 and suddenly realized the thought going through my head was, "Wow...I looked weird like that"!!
Yup...I can now say, I like my appearance more now, than I did then!
I do occasionally let it grow back to about a 1 length....but normally I'm either a 6x0 or shaved clean with a blade.
Go ahead....do it....it doesn't take long to grow back if you don't like it....but...give it a little time....you will...
And for all those "But my head looks funny" people...Everyone's head is different....EVERYONE's......got a little bump? Got a little unevenness? So what?
Just think...no more hats, no more sprays, gels, blowdryers, etc......you can sleep a little later in the morning....
And if you get in a fight.....the other guy won't have anything to grab on to (Long haired guys have a bit of a problem in that area! ...of course...don't get in fights...we're a peace loving bunch)
Anyway....I'm rambling...I don't post often, but when I do, it's a novella!
I close with...
Happy Holidays...and grab your clippers/razor!
Ozz
