Looks Good David....those scars....just battle wounds.....gives you the tough image...  Just read up on the post...you will find answers to the bumps....they will go away....with the proper head shaving techniques.  Welcome to the site bro....and you are never too young to be sly.....well somewhat...I wouldnt shave my 10 year olds head.....but anyone 16 and on up...Go for it.

Welcome bro, is there a story behind the scars?

[GATMOG]

Definitely works for you man!  Keep it!

Hey David,

Looks good.

I get irritation from electric razors, too. And don't get a good shave with a Mach III.

My personal preference is the HeadBlade Sport with HeadBlade Triple blades. But if you read the routines, you'll see that that doesn't work for everybody.

David, welcome to SBG!  Don't worry about the scars - they do add to the BADASS look    Happy Birthday also!  Hoping to see you around the forum!  Feel free to ask any questions you might have.

Welcome David, you wear the SLY well

Welcome David,
I hope you have tried some different routines by now. This first time you get the whole dome slick you will become addicted to it. I would definately stay away from the electric until your scalp gets use to the whole thing, I am sure thats where alot of the irritation comes from.
Looks good man!

David-

                Great look for you.... you wear it well. Kudos to you for going SLY so young and when, like many of us, nature hadn't yet taken the better part of your hair.

Welcome to SBG's David, the sly looks suits you well and looks great with the shades!
It's good to hear you've gotten more confidence too; that's usually one of the first things that happens when one finally scrapes the dome free!.
You've now entered the "sly" dimension.   
Keep it smooth , bro.

Welcome, David! Way to go.

I'd echo the advice not to use the electric for a while. I've only been sly a few days. Day one went great, and the second day I decided to try my electric razor...big mistake. That's how I ended up with some bumps and irritation.

I use a Gillette Fusion, which seems to be easy on the head and pretty forgiving in terms of nics. Until you get the hang of it there's a tendency to slide the blade kind of at an angle across your head (at least there has been for me, anyway). Despite that, I haven't cut myself with the Fusion (at least not yet).

I read up on skin care at the library today...one piece of useful advice was "Don't do anything to your face you wouldn't do to a baby's." I'm not suggesting that shaving a baby's head is a good thing, but in terms of your routine, find products that are easy on your skin.

Enjoy your prime-of-life slyness!
