First post, looking to join the community!
« on: June 19, 2008, 03:33:02 AM »
Well, a bit about myself. I just turned eighteen, and to celebrate I decided to go bald.
I really botched the whole thing up on my first few attempts, lots of burn, shadow, and bumps.

I've got some pretty thick hair, but I'm going to invest in some products tomorrow.

Anyways, besides the hair situation - I just graduated high school and probably will either go into the military or do something more local like the Fire Department or Police.

I was directed to these forums when looking for advice on keeping my head slick and shiny, saw that you guys seemed like a wonderful group, and decided to join!

I'm excited about this new chapter in life that I'm about to hit head-on (excuse the pun).

Congratulations Scott. My biggest regret is that I waited until I was 23 for my first complete lather and razor headshave and not doing it when I was youngr.

Hey Scotsman,

Welcome to the group.  The shaving routine will get easier as you go.  I've only been at it 19 days and it's getting smoother and easier every day.

I am wondering how your folks feel about your new look?  Especially if you are not yet losing hair. Personally, I think it looks good on you.  But when I started shaving my head at age 36, my hair was starting to leave.  My dad was balding.  But I was told it looked like hell.  In the past my stepmom even said that if I loose more hair, maybe I could get a toupee! Yuck!  Anyway, welcome to the group!

Welcome to the group Scotsman! Looking good. O:O
Tis better to have a bald head than no head at all.
