So I was downtown on business today, and my business partner's wife, whom I haven't seen since going sly, took a minute to realize I'd done away with the doo. She stops out of nowhere, looks at me, and says, "Wow! That looks great! If you asked me before doing it, I would have told you not to do it, but seeing it now, it looks really good on you!" Great feeling catching someone off guard and still walking away with compliments. I was also greeted by strangers in passing who all seemed.. respectful.. even going as far as to call me "sir", when, in the past, nobody even looked at me twice!
I understand what you mean...It seems like most men have commanded more respect after they go sly. Glad it's working out for you.
I was always amazed by so many positive comments after my first shave. I still get several positive comments whenever I change my Facebook photo. It sounds like you are enjoying your new style and confidence. Good on you! You look great.
Great story, sir.
Glad your experience is so positive.
That's awesome...glad it happened to you.

Well I got just the opposite at dinner tonight when a family member brought up how awful I looked when I was fully sly!
There always seems to be 1 or 2 that can't get used to you bald.

Glad you got positive reinforcement! With regard to others seeming more "respectful", I noticed the same thing when I went sly. It felt kind of strange.
Brilliant story. It's always good to get positive comments from people to reinforce our decisions!
