Well first off welcome and being that this is Slybaldguys well.....whatever numbers gets the shortest, I'd say go for a skullcut a.k.a. 00 and see how you like that.

hey thanks guys. Well im pretty sure Im going to buzz it tonight probably going to go with 3mm and if I can Ill go shorter. the problem is Im not too sure on exactly how to buzz it. Is there a specific way to actually do it? Thanks again guys.

Seriously I would use at least a #2 to buzz it off first..the longer blades wont give you the result you are looking for...and will keep getting caught in the clipper attachment...

Personally I would go for the #1 blade...a true buzzed look...and i bet you'll even want to take off the blade dude..have fun..and remember it's only hair..... it does grow back..go for it!

Take it down to the wood! You'll have to experience it once to see if you like it or not, why not try it now?

What about it , my man....did you do it yet? I'm telling you, you will never go back to hair again!!!! As I mentioned in a previous post, I let mine grow back to a #2 buzz after the first time I shaved. I thought even that much hair looked like sh&t!!! Go for it, love it, and never look back !!!!
