how many sly guys do you see?
« on: February 27, 2009, 05:10:52 PM »
on my campus of over 30,000 students (it is a young crowd of course) i've only seen one other guy in his 20's like me, in that he's always either sly or at a no guard buzz. i've seen some young guys here with combovers and other horrible mpb haircuts. makes me very sure that i've done the right thing. and i used to think you guys were joking about all the head rubs you get, but now i get it!

how many sly folk do you see on a daily basis?

Boston has quite a few sly guys walking around.  If the weather is half-way decent as it was today, I can easily see 10 or 15 guys who are sly or close to it in a walk of 15 minutes or so.  Also, quite a few of the guys on staff or working out at my gym (frequented by a wide range of ages, but mainly young business people in their 20s and 30s) are bald.

BTW bro...nice to see you buzzed bald...you look young again...nice move! O0

Here in Vancouver and Portland area, quite a few...especially in Portland ( I guess the hip dudes dig full sly better)...

now in So Cal...bro...every dude is buzzed sly or shaved sly...well not every dude..but maybe literally 7 out of 10 dudes are sportin' a short buzz of some kind or shaved slick....btw majority are early 20's-30's

the hip, warmer area's  know a good cut...

bald!

Looks good on you.  I see lots in Boston & NYC area. Only 2 out of 30,000?  More credit to you for leading the charge.

I see quite a few out and about.  I saw one at the grocery store this afternoon.  We nodded at each other.
I see more and more seems like.  We're trendy all of a sudden!

Lots, in my building, on the street--in suits, or business casual.  Mardi Gras had a lot of guys in the streets.  By percentage I see most when I'm in airports and on planes.  I can't remember a flight where I was the only sly guy.  It's really more or less just another "hair" style these days, except SLYS get a haircut almost everyday ;D ;D ;D.

i dont see many my age, except tonight i was at another party (yes ANOTHER party lol) and there was 1 guy my age out of maybe 20 people that had a severely receding hairline. i wanted to walk up to him and give him five for being EXACTLY like me haha but that would be kinda weird. plus...i had a hat on tonight cuz i havent shaved in a few days due to being sick so had no idea.

he had a really kool g/f though. she was funny and not too bad lookin.

as far as shaved goes......i dont personally know anyone my age that shaves there head. i wish i had at least one friend that shaved there head so i could have someone to talk to about it and relate to and stuff but i dont.

It is surprising that for winter in Northern Illinois I see quite a few.  There are three of us at work, two at church and even bumped into two guys last night at dinner.  I can't seem to really go anyplace that I don't see at least one or two sly guys out there.

I don't usually see very many people my age (24) with a shaved head, but since I have shaved I am noticing more and more sly guys around town...

Get some of your friends to try it for the summer.  It was a trendy look among college students a few years ago.  It's about due for a comeback.  Maybe you can lead the way.    ^-^

If I'm at school I just see a few.  One or two.  If I'm at the courthouse(and usually not the defendants!) or at a big office building I see more. 

Once you get outside of the college bracket you'll see alot more.

actually a few days ago a guy knocked on the door.  It was a guy doing some plumbing work in my building so he had to check something in my washroom.  He was bald and the guy had no shadow.  It fit him so well!!
In my washroom there's my bald guyz collection (the shave gel, shampoo, moisturizer, pre-shave scrub).

I wonder what he thought when he saw those.  :)

lol trust me ive tried haha. NONE of them like the look enough to do it. my best friends starting to thin on his crown and he said he will only shave his head as a last resort if it gets any worse. but until then hes not even considering it lol. i told him im gonna sneak into his room sometime when hes passed out from drinking too much and pour nair all over his head so hell have no choice haha. that may have been a lil harsh though lol.

his reasoning for keeping his hair is "once chiks stop throwing their numbers at me ill consider shaving my head" lol. douche.
