Hey guys...

couldn't hang any longer, Ghost called me out a couple days ago and now I'm feelin' a little guilt here.....

I'm a bit hairier these days...

a long snowy winter, boredom, pure wonder, the old what is truly BBC issue and curiosity got the best of me. Having been around the ska scene I've always had the love for retro 50's inspired flattop... then having the attitude to do all the things in life you told yourself you would, I had to try the speed racer "Race Bannon"/ GI Joe flattop beard combo look...

well I did it...so am I still able to contribute here?

...I love the look and everything a slick bald head represents, 15 years slick should tell ya somethin...the attitude that comes with a shaved head is awesome..I WILL be bald again, probably sooner than later..

just wanted to "check" another thing I'd said I'd do off my list!

Stay as slick and sly as your are bro's...

I'm not going any where...just changing it up for the moment!

You're still sly in my books. I wish I could mix it up like that, but there is just nothing much going on in the middle of my head. We know you'll be back sly soon, and besides 15 years experience makes you a member of the sly hall of fame.

Thanks Stu...we've both been around for a while now!

You're still da man!
Honestly, I do the same thing occasionally. Grow it, after 2 or 3 weeks I shave it back off.

It's all about the 'tude!

Hey, Andre, I'd probably do the same thing (if I could)...lol

By all means, don't leave. It wouldn't be the same without you here.

B.A.
Guess we're on similar paths here. I gotta admit, you look totally different with some coverage on top (maybe it's the "I'm gonna kick your azz" growl you got going there).

Yeah, totally stick around. Your contributions and words of advice to guys on the fence are invaluable.

Your bro down south,
Schro

You gotta be kidding B.A. Sly or not, this place would not be the same without you.

Yeah, BA, it wouldn't be the same here without you. When I joined the forum, you were one of the first to welcome me and encourage me. So, thanks for that! Wish I could do what you're doing, but the MPB is getting worse and I could never do the flattop. Have always wanted to do that. Every once in a while, I let my hair grow for a few weeks, but then shave it off again. The landing strip on the front of my head is getting smaller and smaller and it just doesn't look good.

Yes, you are once a bro, always a bro!

Thank you, that you are here.

This post made me feel a bit better. I also am allowing some growth. I am applying to join the police force and will feel better going for interviews etc with a bit of hair. Not much. Just a light covering.

Is it April 1st already?

Slybaldguys w/o the Enforcer? Never--as w/ others here might try it if I could but what's left is thin and asymmetrical so I'd look more like an A__ than I do now.

Do you roll up a pack of Lucky Strikes in your Brando T-Shirt?

BALDANDRE · « **Reply #12 on:** February 28, 2009, 09:46:55 AM »

Ha!

Thanks guys!!!!! Means a lot...it does.

One thing I WILL never do is say I'm leaving SLY...like I'm done with it and have no reason to dig it ...or heck respect the power of it...I fully believe it is just that... EMPOWERING...

but it's the same with this look I'm playing around with...just knowing I could pull off a different look ( I was actually scared NOT to be shaved smooth!)...and go through with it..

So don't worry Razor and guys..I'm still way pro-bald and will be shaved slick again, once this phase gets tired...you all look too d@mn good for me NOT to come back!

Heck, for the record I have to maintain this thing every 5-6 days...since I have it so tight

it's as much up keep as a shaved dome!

Razor X · « **Reply #13 on:** February 28, 2009, 09:50:31 AM »

You really do look different ... I've been sitting here studying the photo trying to figure out if that is really you or someone else's head photoshopped onto your body. $:-\$

Not a bad look Andre but it must be high maintenance.
