I'd say money and time wise it's a toss up, but I'll take the convenience factor any day instead of driving to the barbershop, waiting my turn, having the hair cut and driving home. I can lather up and shave anytime I want at home.

DUDE! I spend a hell-of-a-lot less money being sly. Check out what I looked like with hair. Circa 2000-2001. I spent a lot of money keeping that hair quaffed. _paulie

I agree with Nomad here.  When I stop and think about it I was really spending a lot less money.  For me personally anyway because I didn't have much hair to begin with.  I always kept mine clipped down to about 1/8 or 1/4 inch with clippers.  I would use some moisturizing bar soap on my face and dome since I only had a little hair anyway.  Then I kept a "chin strap" kind of beard.  So I would shave my face about once every two days or so.  So when I look at it for my personal past upkeep it was actually cheaper.  Because I only had the one time cost of the clippers, a bar of Dove face soap that would last about a month or more.  Plus I was using the Dove bar soap to shave my face.  Now I constantly buy razor refills, some kind of scrub, some kind of wash, some kind of shave gel/cream.  Damn!  Makes me really wonder???   :-\ :-\ :-\

Spending more right now on supplies but this will taper off. I'm reading the shaving techniques of the bros here and applying some of what I read to my own routine. As I streamline my program the cost will go down. I also spend more time taking care of the dome and shaving now. When I had hair (not much) it was just wash and dry, now I pre-shave, shave, after shave, but it's cool because I'm actually taking care of my head.
Plus, it just looks a whole lot better than the toilet seat.

I have figured that with razors and headlube,etc,i'm spending $15 a month to be sly. No haircuts once every 2 months.They were $15.So yes,a little more expensive.But no grey or white hairs,no stubble,no remarks about hair colour,and nothing to get whisped during a slight breese or windy day!!!And when it is over 80 degrees???
Nuff said!
