newbie and not shaved yet.
« on: May 12, 2008, 02:23:33 PM »
hi people! just joined that forum here today. i'm from germany and found nothing similar in german. it's a good forum so far i can say that.

me? i'm 34, a balding man and had never shaved my head, just keeping it short. the more hair are gone, the more i think about to shave it off. but i still have doubts about the reactions around me and how it will look like. i guess it's feeling like beeing naked at the first couple of days. or so.

greets to all the baldies here!

Ben, welcome to Sly Bald Guys!  We have a couple German guys here.  From your picture, I would say that you're not too far off from shaving it.  Keep buzzing it down closer and closer to see how it will look.

Welcome Ben!

Look at it this way, if you think other guys look good completely shaved smooth...why wouldn't you look great too? If you also think about it,how come they can run around totally hairfree and shiny without getting flack from those around them...why would you be so different from any of us...and be looked down on by the world around YOU?

Go shave your head bro if that's what YOU want (and like)...and everyone else will just have to get used to the new "slyer" you! ;)

Let us know how you do! O0

Welcome to the forum.  Its great here, as i'm sure you'll soon discover.  Keep taking the hair down closer and closer and in a week or so you'll be ready to shave it, believe me.  that's what happened to most of us here.  When you do there'll be no going back to hair again! 8)
