Finally did it...
« on: June 24, 2008, 01:46:45 PM »
So I finally forced myself to buzz my hair to #0 on clippers, so I'm practically bald now. My headshape actually looks better when there's 0 hair, it looks more round. I thought, what the f**k, it will grow back to my usual 3 mm in a fucking week, so why not try it? I've done this only once before and I didn't like it... I still not like it too much but it's growing on me a bit. I'm gonna post some pics tomorrow.

Since you're this close, you need to go climb in the shower, get out the Schick and shave gell or Headslick and finish it off totally bald.  Come into the brotherhood of the permanently bald!

Good job!   Don't worry about liking it just yet -- it takes time to adjust to a new look.  Now would be the perfect time to shave it smooth, BTW.  It will only take 2 or 3 days to grow back to where it is now.  You're so close -- it would be a shame not to see things through completely.   :)

Congratulations yep_yep.  O0

You were so concerned about your head shape. See, it turns out that it's round. Don't be so hard on yourself. We are all our worst critics.

Glad to here that this look is "growing" on you. Give it a few more days.

Way to go Yep Yep.  Welcome to the brotherhood ... and see, it wasn't such a big deal!

I have seen my headshape before, I buzzed to #0 1.5 years ago... it's rounder than I remembered alright, especially from the side view. I hate the coneheadnedness from the front view though. It ain't over yet, my family and friends have yet to see it.

Right On Yep-Yep!!!! I've been waiting to hear that you finally took the plunge. Now go in there, get your head all lathered up and step on over to the Sly side of life, Brother. O:O
Tis better to have a bald head than no head at all.

congrats, yep_yep.  I'm not just saying this, bro, but I think you have a great head shape, and you certainly suit the shaved look.  You've nothing to be worried about if and when you finally take the plunge and shave it all off.  looks good to me O0

Seriously, yep_yep, I think the buzz looks great. Get that head tanned and it'll look killer.

You've got nothing to worry about, my man.

It looks fine.  I don't know what you're seeing but there's nothing wrong with your head shape -- really!!  Just enjoy it.  There's plenty of guys that would love to be in your position.  Don't be so hard on yourself.
