barber gave me a concerned look, put his hand on my shoulder and asked, "are you doing anything about your hairloss?"
I bought my HeadBlade the next day.
What a good barber, there needs to be more people like this who will help people to make the leap, mine were very encouraging, but most will just keep taking your money to try and 'cover it up'. I'm glad you made the choice to go sly Doc, that's one shiny smooth dome you've got right there!

Found these pictures of me with some hair....makes me feel better about going sly! (I guess on the Norwood scale I would be about a 4 now...)Most of these were taken when I had to grow hair out after two scalp surgeries.

Head was mostly grey and thin so I went BACK to the bald dome.

To get rid of the gray.
I may be 107 years old (running joke among me and the young 20-somethings I work with [I'm actually 57]) but I don't have to look like I'm 107.

However I did it because I always wanted to! Now here I am and loving it!

I have receding for 20 years, recently a friend of mine at work some how were talking about haircuts and said that I had a good head to shave it, I told him I had thought about it before but never did. By chance my wife mentioned it a couple of days later also.... so I did.

Wilky, it was a good decision and recommendation from your friend and wife. Bald looks good on you.

What made me go bald? A razor blade and some encouragement from friends who were bald. I like the look. I've been sporting very short hair for several years. I think it looks distinguished. Started noticing how many guys 'out there' are also shaving their heads bald. Started reading SBG. Y'all've (can you do a double contraction), been an encouragement and set a good example for how positive a bald head can be.
I hope to be an encouragement to those who are balding by showing that whether you have hair on top or not, it can look good and be a positive thing.
OK, guys on the fence. Get our the razor and shave your head.

I have Folliculitus Decalvans, which is an autoimmune disorder that makes the body attack the protiens in the hair follicules, causing the hair to fall out and scarring at the root/follicule. I was a (nearly) sly- 1/16th Wahl cut for about a year and a half until I made the mistake of asking my wife what she wanted for Christmas "To grow your hair back" Well, I did, and I hate it. My hairline in the front is very uneven, with one side significantly higher than the other.
I'm going to go sly...

I think it's a good idea.

I'd been thinking about it for a long time but never really had the courage despite encouragement from friends every time I cut my hair. (Taking it down to an eighth of inch for the past 12 years.) I finally just decided that I was tired of having hair and I convinced myself to shave it off with a reminder that if I didn't like being bald I'll have hair again in 3 or 4 days.

I went bald because I always liked the look and I have (I think) a nicely shaped head for it. As an added bonus, now that I'm older, it got rid of the grey.
