Guys who are half bald

Walking by the family hair salon in Walmart, I noticed a guy getting a haircut who had nothing on top, just a bit of a fringe remaining. I thought to myself, why would anyone pay for a haircut and be half bald? I never undrstand what stops guys like that from just shaving their heads.

I mean, they're really getting screwed, paying a barber to cut so little hair!

I have buddy who has the ring of hair. He has been complimentary since I shaved my head and told me about these straggling hairs on the top of his head that he shaves off between visits to the barber. I asked if he ever considered just buzzing it all off. He just responded with a no he was already bald. Well sort of bald I thought and dropped the topic. He goes to a barber that will not do head shaves. I told him about my barber and that he shaved my head back in early December. It will be interesting to see if I influenced him or not over the next couple of months. His head I guess if he likes the donut.

It takes awhile for some men to get the courage to shave it all off. But you see more and more men taking the plunge. Remember back it may have taken some time for you to give it a try. But it really is becoming a new fad.

I'll grant you, it did take me a little while. But if I was half or mostly bald already, I never would have questioned it for a second.

I think some guys just like the barbershop experience and atmosphere. I have a good friend that gets a number 2 buzzcut every couple of weeks, and he is getting pretty thin on top. He always points out that he just got a haircut, so I always say so did I!
Pretty soon I'm going to ask him if he's thought about shaving it all off. Mother nature is already working on it.

Just as we expect others to respect our decision to shave off our thinning hair, or a full head of hair, we also need to respect those who make other choices.
If anything, someone who chooses to deal with their baldness by just going out into the world with whatever he has left, and with his head held high should demand our respect, no? Isn't this the ultimate form saying FTW, I am bald, live with it?
It would be great if the choice that we make of what to do with our hair was ours, and ours alone without society dictating what we need to "do" with our balding scalps?

This X1000. Remember the name of the website is Sly Bald Guys, not Sly shaved guys. The idea of the website here is to let people know that going bald is not the end of the world and to wear a bald head whether partial or complete with confidence
@DoberDaddy My apologies, I meant to quote your post and accidentally hit modify. My mistake.

I know several guys with the fringe. I respect that is their choice, but truth be told, I think they would rather have a shaved head. But for whatever reason will not do it.
One told me once that the barber shop has a bald man's special - half price, to buzz his fringe. He has absolutely nothing growing on top, and just gets a #3 or #4 buzz. Another told me shaving was not worth the time it would take, even though he shaves his face daily.
