Reactions after beeing "sly" since Monday
« on: May 29, 2008, 11:45:28 AM »
hey folks,
i had so much worries about the reaction at work. but i was like a lot of you guys told here.
it's kinda unevenfull and the reactions were positiv. most said it's looking good. just 2 questions
about the why.

a corwoker said, she likes it, cause she thinks that bald/badling man looks more manly. ;D

surprisingly, 4 of my coworkers said, they thought about to do it too. i'm in doubt they will do it,
but i guess there are much more men out there who wish to expirience the "sly" look and have to much doubts to go for it.

PS: i got more used to it after 4 days,  seeing myself completly bald
in the mirror. it loved the feeling just right from the beginning. great feeling.

Ben, it sounds like it's the same in Germany as other places...shaving your head is a non-event for most people but yourself.
People are not limited by the circumstance that they are born in. They are limited by the size of their dreams. Show them that their dreams can have no limits and in turn their accomplishments can be limitless.

That was my experience too!

Ben, great to hear that you received such positive reactions to going sly and that YOU are really positive about the change.

Newly bald brother Ben32, I'm glad you like the new and improved sly version of you. Now you can enjoy a hair-free life without worrying about bad hair days.  Headshaving is very liberating and you'll probably never want hair on your head ever again.

I bet the remark from your female co-worker made your day. A bald head = a confident, self-assured man. Most females feel that way about Sly guys. As for those four guys you work with that say they have thought about doing it, seeing your sly head everyday will be an incentive to take the plunge. Maybe one of them will try sly.

Ben you look like a new man with your shaved head. It will take some time, but your confidence will build itself up with each successive headshave.

I'm glad it's going good for you.

You look good bald. Start gaining confidence again, my man. You'll be getting looks from ladies no time.
