Greeting from Austin, TX
« on: May 18, 2009, 02:50:13 PM »
I'm 58 and ready to shave the dome.  Never realized how much was available until I started searching this site.  Great bunch of folks here with a lot of great info.

Been cutting my hair shorter and shorter over the years and shaving my head has been on the bucket list for a long while.  Didn't give it any serious attention since I thought it would be too much effort to maintain.  After lurking this forum my mind has changed.   Just ordered some goodies from HB to get started.

Though I think I'll keep the beard ...  ;)

You guys definitely know how to make a noob fit in!

Going to visit the hair stylist Wednesday and clip it as short as possible.  Even though I only visited every 5 weeks or so, I'm going to miss seeing her, she's a great friend.  Besides, I don't think my beard trimmer could handle the job.

Should have the HB gear by the weekend and officially join the SLY group!

Welcome Waypoint.   By all means keep the beard.   Sly and a beard work very well.
