Just go for it! It sounds like you are close anyway, so people won't really notice the difference and you will like not having to mess with hair.

welcome: come down of that fence and try shaving it: you might just like it, and then you'll have the answer

Welcome fencer! It appears that you're almost there. Go ahead and do it. Like others have said, if you don't like it, you'll be back to a #1 in several days.

Welcome, you're at the right place. I can relate to the #1 buzz, but for me the temptation to try the fully monty was just too much so after 3 days I went to the bone
. I have a couple of imperfections--memorials of two basal cell skin cancer removals and although they are slightly elevated (you can see one on my current avatar), the Fusion blade hasn't ever nicked either of them. As you've already heard, a #1 is about a week's worth of hair from sly, so obviously going the next step isn't too hard to recover from if after thirty days sly you have any desire to do so--the overwhelming majority of guys don't. While buzzed the mpb progresses and you can see it. It still goes on sly, it just can't be seen. It's the ultimate haircut--fresh every day! Try it, you'll like it.

I truly appreciate the warm wecome! I believe (due to the aforementioned birthmark), I am going to stay with the #1 buzz (for now!!). My wife has already started looking in to options for "taking care" of the birthmark area. Due to skin cancer history, this is the precaution we are taking. My wife wants me to shave it because she really likes the look! (We both do!) I told you she was supportive!

Well, I'm not a fencer anymore! I did it! Last night with a Mach III and Crown Royal, I scraped it off! I know what you guys mean about the numb feeling. That is awesome. I'm still not quite sure if I like it or if I will leave it, but I have NO regrets! I always wanted to try it, and now I have!

Fantastic, isn't it. You've beaten MPB. Post up a picture so everyone can see that shiny new dome in the neighborhood.

Congratulations, Fencer!
You're going to have to do something about that name, by the way, considering you're no longer on the fence! And yeah that numb scalp feeling (I called it Numb Skull) is pretty strange but doesn't last too long.
Post up any questions or fire off a PM if you need tips or technique help. -
