I'd say shave it  O0
In theory, there is no difference between theory and practice. But in practice, there is.

Thank you for all the input. I am pretty sure, that i am going to buzz it after the holidays. I am a bit on the fence, because many people like the long hair. On the one hand my hair is very thick and unmanageable, on the other hand it is (at least) a bit receding (what you might not see in the picture with hair).

Anyway: Happy Holidays to you and your loved ones!!!

Buzzed definitely gives you an edge that hair doesn't.  As the fellas have said, slick would be even better.  Add a goattee, and it's a whole new you.  Do what makes you happy; everyone else can adjust.
How is that Hopey / Changey thing working for you?

I'd go with shaved/buzzed.  It looks good on you.

Try it.  Apparently it grows back fairly quickly.

I know that shaving your head for the first time can be scary, but I really don't know how anyone can buzz as short as what you've shown in the first photo and resist the temptation to shave.   The first time I gave myself a zero-guard buzz, it was much shorter than I thought it would be.  After I took the first swipe of the clippers, I realized it was going to leave me practically bald but at that point I had no choice but to continue.  When I was done, I didn't have any intention of going any further.  But then I started thinking that if I shaved it, it would only mean about one extra day to grow out.  And the next thing I knew, I was lathering up my scalp and taking that first swipe with the Mach III.

Good for you MM.  I agree with the guys, you do look better with the buzz. Shaving is your option.  I say go for it.  It does grow back.
I am no better that anyone else, but by God, no one is better than I am
