hello fellow chrome domes... just wondering... has anyone else shaved your dome besides U? your barber? wifey? gf? bf? significant other? brother? sister? if not, do U plan on asking your wifey or significant other 2 "do the deed"? or do U plan on going 2 the barber?
i'll start: my wifey shaves my dome 50-75% of the time. the other times... i shave myself. on a few occasions, my barber has shaved my noggin'. so... how 'bout U? what's your story?

Probably not a chance of that happening. I am up, shaved, and out the door before anyone else in my house gets out of bed. Also, I have never let it grow out enough to warrant a barber shave.

Before I went Sly, my barber would take it down to 0 at times..That's when I said "Hell with that, I will do it myself"
Besides that, I have done it all myself.....I save my wifes shaving skills for other areas...

Being so new to it, it's been all me. I don't know if I trust someone else with a blade up there.

It feels weird having someone else shave your dome, because they use a different amount of pressure than I normally would.
I had cuts all over the last time, so it's just me from now on.... they can rub it after!

Have had about 5 different barbers do the deed one time or another....
most times it's been a great, perfect shave...
and cool experience!

Funny you ask, WARHAWK.
Just had my first barbershop headshave on Friday. I hadn't shaved/cut the dome for over a week (busy with work and travel). Went to the barber with my 8 days of growth and he had no one in the shop at the time, so he asked if I wanted a head shave instead of the normal #00000 blade. Never had one before, but took BALDANDRE's advice from awhile back and decided to go for it. One word: awesome! And only $18 (plus a good tip)...kind of a nice splurge treat if you ask me. There was some serious shine going on, too.
Very relaxing...I recommend it. Midway through it (following hot towels, etc.) one guy with some fringey MPB who came in the shop commented on how he'd love to get his head shaved but his wife would kill him. Said his head wouldn't look as good as mine, and that his would look like a bag of walnuts. I told him I started out going shorter and shorter and you get used to it. My barber reiterated it, too. After I left, told him to just go for it. So maybe I helped my first recruit to the SLY side!
Next time I go, I want to get a picture of it so it can be my new avatar. -
