@Semi-Sly , I ran into a guy at a carshow yesterday with the most perfectly cut grey flattop I've ever seen! He was talking to me about my car, so I just had to ask him who his barber is. Turns out it's a gal at my neighborhood barber.

So, I hadn't shaved for 3 days, and I think I will try to grow out my hair so I can try her. I figure by December I will be able to get a nice short flattop. Hope I can make it that long without shaving!

I made a mistake of growing out. I have 1cm hair right now and my parents insist that I grow out because I still 'have hair' when it is diffused as hell lmao, they wanted to see how it grows out and they are happy with the result, whereas I am not. The worst thing is, they react with anger for everytime I mention shaving head, telling me that I am obsessed about it and thought that when I buzz it I will shut up and never mention my hair again. (they thought that I will buzz only once and then grow out lmao).

Now tbh I might be closer to going sly than ever. People seeing I buzz from that 1cm hair to 5mm, now to 3mm, encourage me to shave it all off. On photos I look like a sly guy and I like that look. I have been compared to Lex Luthor and I think it's the best compliment you can get as a bald guy. I just need to find that rebellious soul that made me buzz to 3mm and just shave with no guard. WISH ME LUCK

Also, related to topic, people tell me I look older not only because of my head but also because of my fashion style which seems to be outdated lmao. I like that style but I am not sure whether I should try to wear clothes that fit my age

It seems like just about everyone complains about something these days.  If you do something to please one group, you'll piss off another group of people so there's no winning.  I just wear my kakies, a colored T-shirt and sunglasses and that's it.  If anyone don't like my look then don't look.  It's not possible to please everyone so there's no point in trying.  It's all about what you're happy with so don't worry about what others think.  It just doesn't matter as long as you're happy with yourself.

Good advice @clint902 , I think most will find that the older you get, the less you care what other people think.

Well I am living temporarily in Fort Lauderdale Florida for two months went to get my Flattop tuneup on Saturday and the guy really screwed up one side of it and totally mode off one of the corners. 

I don’t know why nobody book couple of guys and Chicago seem to know how to do a really good Flattop anymore!!!!

It is a  good thing I’m planning on going back to ball for the winter
