It’s anniversary week

[Razor X]

This week marks two important milestones:

1.  Twelve years ago this week I became a member of this forum

2.  Fifteen years ago this week I shaved my head and finally made the commitment to stick with it, after a few abortive attempts.  I always ended up feeling self conscious after a week or two and let the hair grow back.  This time I committed to 30 days, then 90 and then another 90. After that I made an attempt to grow it out only to find that it was no longer possible to grow anything but peach fuzz on top.  So I took the razor to my scalp once again and never looked back.  I can honestly say that I’ve liked being bald far more than I ever liked having hair.  My only regret was not having done it sooner.

Congrats!  I know what you mean. 

I can still grow hair and I still "think"
 that I look better with hair - but the honest truth is that it is only "peach fuzz" compared to the magnificent flattopped carpet it once was.

I have never been able to keep it shaved for more than a year at a crack.

But a very few of my acquaintances have told me that I look better shaven; and I feel better not having to obsess about my hair anymore.

With great guys like you as my role models I am coming to a new "image" of myself and more accepting of my age and appearance.

So congratulations - and Thank You!

Congratulations Razor, time sure goes fast . The full beard very impressive, thinking of letting mine go longer. Your time as a moderator, and inspiration much appreciated here.

Thanks, Magoo and nuts.

Congratulations!  I am never good with remembering dates, so I cannot say exactly when I started shaving.  But I know I still had enough hair at the time to be considered BBC.  Like you, I like being sly more than I ever liked the hair I had on my head, and I wish I had done it sooner.
