Greets Sly Guys
ShineyLid:
Ok. Well, I've been reading up on the forums for roughly two weeks now and still reading I suppose.
I'm the type of guy that enjoys both instant gratification and will gladly do things on a whim. This is precisely what I had planned, though, I have every intention to use the HeadBlade. The problem... of all the "dealers" listed on their website, only the Target had the HeadSlick, though no one had the Blade (in stock). It would appear head shaving is a trend, though in my case, it's thinning. I wear hats ALL the time and even after I noticed the thinning (and semi-normal hairline at the forehead) I still wore hats.
However, as you know, there are times when a hat isn't necessarily "appropriate" such as nice dinners, etc. And since I am thinning (have really thinned a great deal over the past 8 months oddly) so much, I've decided just to shave.
Unfortunately, since no one seems to have a HeadBlade, I sit here with my 8oz bottle of HeadSlick beginning to have some doubts about doing it. Though, NOT because of the reasons you would think (initially). Assuming my crown is not entirely distorted/lumpy (lol), I have no problems shaving it.
BUT. My mustache grows nothing on the middle upper lip, the little valley portion, nadda.. no hair, ever. I'm 32, so I believe any hair I'm going to grow (aside from the back, backside and ears which fortunately hasn't begun yet), I would have grown it... or is there something which can be done about this? I've not really payed any attention to other guys, though the way my wife has made comments about it, it seems I'm a rarity. Perhaps that is giving me a slight complex or maybe not. But, no 'stache grows in the middle. The rest of the goatee is fine thankfully.
I'll put a picture of myself in my profile before too long.
PBurke:
there is aways the soul patch. welcome to sbg. mine was thinning a little when i shaved, and i have a spot on the corner of my mouth that doesn't grow. you may have to play with some different looks until you find what works for you. everyone here will be glad to offer help/advice/answers. just ask. hope you enjoy.

Seriously...welcome, ShineyLid
I concur with Paul....experiment with "the look" and pay attention to other dudes (with hair or not) and see how they approach the facial hair. Some have just a patch on their chin and that's it....some just do the area right under their lower lip and that's all they grow.....some have no 'stache but everything else is a full goatee. Shoot, you might try that if yer 'stache doesn't grow in the middle of the upper lip, start it at the sides of yer mouth and exploit the other goatee areas....might be a cool look.
