Why are you going to wait 2 months to do the deed.  Do it now you will look and feel great.  You have a great shaped head and really nice eye brows.  Don't wait shave it now, you look very handsome sly.

Everybody, I just buzzed my hair with 2.5 clipper length all over my head. This is the shortest my hair has ever been since I was born. It looks great!! Thanks for everyone's advice, you guys really gave me the courage to do this, even though I am now wondering why i was so scared. I am much, MUCH less apprehensive about shaving my head now, and realize that when the times comes it won't be a big deal. Thanks again for everyone's positive comments.

Glad you like it and that buzzing down helped relieve some of your apprehension.  You might want to move in stages: next try a tighter buzz like a 1, then go with no guard, and finally shave smooth.  It'll give you a chance to adjust to having less and less hair.

Thats the plan npsbg. Some of the guys suggested shaving right away so I can have a natural color on my vacation. The truth is I'd rather be pasty white on my vacation than be pasty white at my job! I plan to be fully shaved by the first day of summer.

Looks good, AJB.  Will look even better when you shave in bald in June. 

Fair enough on your comments about tan color on top for vacation, vs. now.

And I like your comment supporting the buzz as a good choice. The apprehension was not necessary. Same is true of shaving bald.

shave it man, shave it... You will be thankful that you did it earlier... you look great in your virtual version. But man, who knows you might look better in real bald look of yours rather than your virtual version O0 O0 O0

I could listen to Motown all day, too.  Sometimes do. They don't make that kind of music any more.  Catchy tunes, simple little ballads, and rich harmonies/accompaniments.  Very singable.

Tomorrow I go one step closer to sly... a #1 buzz all over! This time I'm not as scared because the 2.5 definitely boosted my confidence. Although I still find my head shape to be somewhat odd, I'm moving past it. I've gotten nothing but compliments about the buzz! From both women AND men. I have to say I think it was an improvement and makes my hair loss less noticeable. I seem to be getting more attention from the ladies as well 8), including one woman who seemed  uninterested until after i got the buzz! It was like night and day. The idea popped into my head that less hair = more chicks... It seems true for me so far! After that comes no guard then on 6/1/12 I shave bald. I've been worrying about mpb so much less recently, and I owe it to this site for giving me courage. Can't wait to stop worrying completely!! I really do thank you guys and this forum for all the wisdom and positive reinforcement. I really don't think I would be as optimistic and confident if it weren't for SBG's. I'll be sure to post pics after the fact. Wish me luck!
