Wow..it sure is smooth now...:)
« on: April 01, 2008, 06:27:08 PM »
New guy here and I took the plunge today. 2nd time actually. Tried it a year ago, and didn't show a single person other than my wife. I wore a hat the whole time. I have had short hair for about 10 years courtesy of my 6 years in the Marines. Once I slowly got away from the high and tight, I really realized how much it was creeping in the front. Here I am 30 now, and totally shaved. Trying to get the courage to roll with it, having alot of looks in the mirror thinking...WTF did I do.

Thats me.

Hey, Josh, Congrats brother.  We have all been there.  You just need to march out there and show the world.  It really is easier than we make it in our heads.

Best of luck.

Live with it shaved smooth for at least 1 month before deciding if it's YOU!

Having the high and tight I'd say shavin' it to the skin is in your blood dude....

Welcome aboard...you will end up lovin' it bro!

josh... 1st of all welcome 2 the sly fraternity.  glad that ya found us.  i say wear the slick, smooooth dome proud and show the world.  that's exactly what i did when i finally "did the deed".  like baldandre mentioned give it the "30 day trial".  it is the unwritten rule in the SBG forum.  after the 30 days... one will decide 2 keep it slick or grow it out.  usually one keeps it smooooth.  anyways... jump in & join the fun by being an active member of the best site on the internet.  post up your headshaving routine in the HEADSHAVING section of the forum.

At least rock it for about a month to get use to it.  It's always like that at the beginning.  Welcome.

You'll get the "You look like a bad *** now".
Think of it this way..., being SLY provides a small intimidation factor that keeps people from messing with you.  :popo
