• it sounds really cheesy and desperate but its really works and noone will know the difference! ill post pics of me with on later.
  
  movie stars use makeup on their head to get rid of the shadow. well if your like me and have a balding shadow or receding shadow and you want the "shadowless" bald spots to blend in with the rest of your head as well as look natural, go to an art store and ask for a thing called a "black conte crayon". it infact isn't like a crayon but more like a thicker black chalk. you just scrape a little off the stick, put it on your finger and gently rub it onto your shadowless spot, or receding hairline and it blends in EXACTLY with the rest of your shadow to make it look fuller. and the good thing is its a thicker chalk so it doesn't rub off easily. it will last at least 2 days without having to reapply it. it looks natural because when you rub it in its the exact shame shade as your shadow. (its a very faint grayish black color thats almost unnoticeable)
  
  i found this use of the conte crayon the other day while at school. i take a college drawing class where we use conte crayons and i had it on my fingers and accidentally touched my head and it left a very faint smudge on my forehead, so i thought to myself hmmmm....i wonder if this would work on my shadow. so i tried it out and was very shocked by the results.
  
  it sounds kinda corny like that spray paint hair coloring stuff to cover baldness but its not. its cheap, looks natural, and only takes a second. ill post some before and after pics tommorow.
  
  this is the picture of the product.

• Glad you found that bro...sounds like a cool thing to try if a dude is bugged by his sparse shadow left after shaving...
  
  the only other alternative would be tweezing for a fully shadow free head!
  
  There was a young dude like yourself that went that route but by lazer treatments..his name was Jason Farber , check out his bio here..
  
  he said he loved the results of getting rid of his hair completely..!
  
  BTW I wouldn't mind that either!

• Whatever works for you, man.  But i'd stay away from it.  You may end up relying on the crayon as most guys rely on toupee's or hats.  The last thing you want is another band-aid to deal with, when you're already trying to get used to the sly look.
  Do what you need to, but people may just get used to the crayon look, and you might feel like you need to 'chalk-it-up' everyday.

• Dude, you rock the sly look, I know its hard to accept, if this crayon stuff helps you accept it then fair enough, but once you realise that losing your hair is a natural thing and you really do suit the bald look........remember it happens to the best of us!!
