Title: 1 Day in
Post by: jbrit25 on August 13, 2015, 08:50:16 AM
And I'm pretty sure I'm never going back to hair. I should have done this years ago. I need to perfect the technique because it took me forever to get it shaved and I still didn't get it as slick as I wanted.

Welcome to the board, sir, and congratulations.

I think it is safe to say that most of us also wondered why we waited so long to finally pick up the razor.

Glad to have you here.

Now, that looks good! Welcome to the shaved head brotherhood. Your best shaving technique will come with time. Now you get to buy all kinds of shaving stuff to try out. Glad your wife likes it.

head shaving takes a short while to perfect for a smooth head.  Don't rush it. You don't want to scalp yourself.

Looks good on you.  Sounds like you like it and thats a big plus.

Welcome to SBG.

Just an update for lurkers who are thinking...
3 weeks in and still liking it. I actually made the weirdest statement to my wife last week... i said i wish more of my hair would fall out so I had less work when shaving. 6 mos ago I would not have thought that.

Yeah, that's what happens.  Just be patient.  More hair will fall out in due time.  ;)

damn straight, I'd loose more hair to reduce the shaving work too

Congrats!  It really does suit you.  I'm mildly jealous of how much it suits you, hehe!

Well done. As the rest said it does suit you sir. Do you shave daily now and what do you use? I use a Mach 3 and shave every other day at the moment. Been shaving head over 2 years

I use a Hydro 5. Every other day usually but I will shave two days in a row occasionally.

Looks very sharp! I knew first time I razor shaved that I was a permanently completely bald man. That was decades ago.

I'm late getting in on this thread, but will echo the others on the fine look.  I also asked myself the same question of why I waited so long.

Good on you!
