1st Post. Not SLY yet....
« on: April 05, 2009, 06:07:26 PM »
Nature is making the decision for me as every day goes by. My wife freaks every time I mention shaving the rest off.

I sort of like the idea.

I have a feeling this site might help me decide.  Whatta think?

I know that's a dumb question on this site.  :-\

Welcome sellitman, there are no dumb questions on this site.   Sometimes we are asked the same question
(except in different words) over and over, but no problem.   For many men losing hair it's not so easy at the
beginning to grab a razor and shave it off.  I was there!!!  But hey, there is some good news, "there's
light at the end of the tunnel".   So once you do shave, let's just say the feeling is priceless and you will never
want to go back.     
Welcome once again, and feel free to ask any question you have in mind.

Let the wife look at some of the photos of the stunning guys on here (myself excluded) and she'll beg you to shave that mitten off. :*))

Sellitman, welcome!  And I can tell you're a natural for SLY.  Hope you can/will give it a try.  If your wife is worried about not being able to run her fingers through your hair, tell her the hair just gets in the way!   ;)

Welcome.  Two thoughts: 1) Once you've got the itch to go Sly, nothing else is going to stop the itch!; 2) Never ask permission, ask forgiveness--then stick it out.   >:D  30 days, and if YOU  don't like it, what's left will grow back, but you're avatar doesn't show a whole lot left anyway.  She might not notice it's gone ;D ;D ;D

Welcome Sellitman.   I think you should just go for it and shave it all off.  Your wife will probably like it more than she thinks and I''m pretty sure you'll love it.   Give it 30 days ...

Welcome!

The #1 opponent to a man shaving always seems to be either his wife or mother.  It may be tough at first (for her) but it gets easier over time.
People are not limited by the circumstance that they are born in. They are limited by the size of their dreams. Show them that their dreams can have no limits and in turn their accomplishments can be limitless.

Can't give you anything different from the other guys.  You knew what we would say: SHAVE IT!

Seriously, bro, you look like a SLY guy in the making: just try it for 30 days. 8)

Dude, I can tell right away that you will rock the look. Seriously.

And, just because you know what the answer will be doesn't make it a stupid question! ;)
