MPB with a Hairpiece-Would like to shave my head.

do it and get it over with. for a few days you'll be a topic and after that, it dies down rather quickly. it's for you; not anyone else!

So true.  Being newly sly myself, this seems to be the exact pattern.  Once everyone gets over the shock, it is no big deal.  I noticed my wife is even starting to warm up to it. 

However, beware of the power that the sly gives you.  Use it wisely.  Good Luck.

Throw the rug away, get a pair of barber clippers and peel it down to sandpaper.  Get yourself my weapon of choice, the Schick Extreme with Headslick and go permanently bald, and dont look back. That means at the minimum a daily headshave. Welcome to the frat!

you'll feel uplifted and relieved once over with. trust me.

This is excellent advice.  In my experience, once you know you're going to do it, it's best to get it over with as soon as possible.  Otherwise, you'll just be obsessed with it and torture yourself thinking about it until it's done.

I may not have a hairpiece, but I definetly feel some of the same feelings.

I am going to take your guys' advice and just do it. I'm not going to wait.
It's noticeable, i'm not fooling anyone. My hair is falling out fast and soon it will be even more noticeable.

I think i'm going to do it next week.

The only thing really holding me back is, I have my eye on a girl and she knows me with hair. But if she doesn't accept me, or like me the same without hair, who cares.
She wouldn't have been right either way.

So yeah, it's happening soon.

Hi Gentlemen!
Well, as you can see from my avatar, I finally did it! I am down in Gulf Shores, AL. I arrived yesterday. I got up this morning and while my wife, and daugters were at the grocery store, I shaved it clean!! Everyone has been so supportive since I told them yesterday. Even my two nieces, 17 and 11, they love my new look. My 11 year old niece really didn't know that I wore a hairpiece (atleast she says!), and she gave me a thumbs up  . My 13 year old daughter was a little quiet about it at first, but it is now 2:00 PM on Sunday, 6/22 and it is really a non-event for her.
I feel so much better! Do you know what it is like to go in the ocean and the pool without having to worry about what is on my head?? I feel like a million bucks!! My wife actually thinks I look better. She was the one more worried about it than me.

Looks fantastic!   

Congratulations on your new-found freedom.  Be careful of the sun on your dome.

Way to go Scott,

Glad that you're wife approves of the new SLY you. You're 13 year old will warm up to it. Give her some time.

Enjoy the summer and all the new found freedom you have.
