Title: To be.....SLY!
Post by: Kajun on February 24, 2007, 01:46:09 AM
well its done..i was stressin pretty hard tonight while at work but i was still determined to go Sly..got off work and went to my buddys house and picked up his clippers and stopped by target/walgreens and got some liquid bandages, king of shaves gel and some nevia aftershave replenishing balm..came home and started clippin..once i started with the clippers it was like a big burden was lifted....got in the shower and used the aveeno therapy gel and shaved my face with the fusion...was kinda scary since its the first time i used the fusion..so i went slow...no nicks on the face, so it was on to the dome!

went with the grain all over with the fusion...but i chickened out and broke out my ole faithful sensor 2 blade and shaved against the grain all over....once i thought it was pretty slick i went back over it against the grain with the fusion.....no nicks..no blood!! whew!

i definetly need some exfoliating scrub or something...gonna get that tommorow....i did a cold water rinse..that felt good on the skin and tightened it up....then i put the nevia lotion on...that felt even better ...smooooth!

i definetly need some sun though...what ya think about a tannin salon for now? the shape of my head is alil more egg shaped than i hoped for but its livable... i'm diggin the slyness alil more than i thought i would and i know it will look alot better with a tan...so i got to work on that, once i get to Florida i shouldnt have a prob keepin tan.....next thing is to get this beer belly and lazy body in shape...with those things i'll think i'll dig it even more.

well here it is folks......bask in the slyness of the chrome dome!! 8)

Way to go Kajun!!!   That looks good!  O0  From the pic it doesn't look like you have much of a shadow.  Now, you'll be ready for a head rub!

It's funny you say that you need to get in shape because so many of us have said that once we shaved our heads.

(by the way, the answer is that I never sleep)

 O0  Great new look, Kajun! If you realize only half of your physical program, it still means that your life is on the move again. Resolved to give up beer for Lent; resolution lasted two days.... Reading your post may strengthen my resolve. Enjoy the shine and FL, Professor Melon

Great job!!

As everyone else has said, don't worry about the color... it takes time!  Hopefully, if you're on a ship, you'll take a quick trip to El Carib soon... good sun down there!

Kajun,

I gotta echo the other posts,  WAY TO GO!  If you are already quite bald, to me it's a no brainer.  Also, it's a very professional look now in and out of the military!  You won't regret your decision!

Way To Go Kajun : It looks awsome, you mentioned needing an exfoliating scrub, try the Head Shed from HeadBlade, that stuff works great. Also if you find that you need a bump stopper (for ingrowm hairs) try the Clear Head. But as I said,,, it looks great keep it Sly man!!

You'll feel that after shave numbness for awhile.  I've been shaving close to three years, so I don't even remember what that feels like anymore... :(

Way to go Grasshoppa maybe the day went well because a).  it doesn't look bad, it looks great, b). they're envious because they haven't done it and c).  it is a big deal when a guy has the courage to step outside most people's comfort zone and be Sly.  Congratulations, hope it continues to go well.
