So, a question on the beard, are you keeping it when you return to the Land of Sly?--from my recent experience it's so expertly developed and trimmed-you must have some extensive experience and tools for that matter.  Did you just do it, or did someone help you out on the hows and whys of maintaining such a polished look :/O :/O :/O?
Not so sure if I'd keep it..kinda like the Mr. Clean look...plus it might be too bottom heavy.

trimming the beard...good eye and same philosophy as a good "faded" haircut...the guards get smaller as you move up the sideburns...

oh big thing...shape the top of YOUR stach area ( a bit)...I've learned giving your nose "some breathing room" gives a cleaner better look!

I'll photoshop ya what I mean on your avy..if you want ;)!

Thanks too Wpruitt!

That would be fine, can you do it from the picture you have on the screen?

Hey BA - the flat-top really suits you for a change, and I love the toghtness of it at the sides: its a good look for you O0

Wish I could have tried it but I've always had the wrong shaped hairline up front!

Love the beard combo too: very sharp 8)

FlattopAndre ~  What's the world coming to?  Schro is back with a slick head, and now you're sportin' a flattop!  Just kidding, man.  The FT looks great...SLY, even.  You're SLY in my book, even with a "do."

Please don't take offense, but considering the "whole show" I just couldn't keep the lines from Tennessee Williams' poem, the Gold Tooth Blues out of my head, the refrain that keeps repeating in my mind when I look at them is

"I'm a gold tooth woman, with the gold tooth blues,
'Cause a gold tooth makes a woman look old."

The grey, the look in toto does put some years on you, they won't card you anymore at least.  But like I said, please don't take offense.

BA-

You KNOW better than to think that little bit of hair makes you "Not-SLY".

It's a great look on you, no doubt....... but I know you'll be SLY again.

You look great Andre. I'm all for changing it up, and it seems you've done a good job. I think Mr. Clean is your best look, but not because of some ridiculous Sly over everything view, just because you rock the look really well. As everyone else said of course stay, you've given alot to this board hair or no hair.

Keep well bro!
