Discussions About Being Bald > To be or not be...Bald
Tonight is the night
wfleming:
So I've been reading the forums here for a few months trying to get the courage up to shave it. Tonight I finally decided to shave it, well, for the most part. I brought my hair down to a #2 and I'm going to keep it here til i get a little color on my scalp, I'll be outside a lot this weekend so I'm going to shave it on monday. I'm amazed by how much more confident i feel with just the shorter hair......my thinner spots are much less apparent. Oh, by the way, I'm only 18 and my hair has been thinning for 3 or 4 years now, but i was lucky and had extremely thick hair so it has taken awhile.

Welcome wfleming ;
I'm glad you joined the group, don't be depressed about thinning hair, some of us in the group are bald by choice, and some of us are blad by nature. But we all have one thing in common, and that is being proud to be bald. And this forum is a great place to meet new freinds, ask questions and get advise and support. Welcome,Welcome!!

Welcome...WF....Glad to have you with us.
I totally understand wanting to stay at #2 for a while...
But I wouldn't necessarily do it in an effort to get sun on yer scalp...
I tried just that....and it didn't do A THING....
It's difficult to get sun up there even when totally slick. I've found that that area which has been protected by hair for SO L-O-N-G is a long time coming along now that I've shaved slick for a month.
The only way I know that I've gotten a little sun burned up there is because it itches a bit...but the color is barely changed...only slightly pinkish.
Anyway...my two cents.
I believe if you just shave it...you'll love the freedom and whole SLICK thang....like the rest of us.
Peace, brutha! O0
