Title: Are most Sly bald Guys over 50?
Post by: jimbo48 on June 10, 2011, 06:07:28 PM
I have been sly for 6 months now.  For 2 years prior to going sly, my hair was gradually clipped from #3 to #2 to #1 to no guard.  I love the feel and shine of my BBC head.   Like so many of you have said, "I wish I had shaved my head years ago".

This morning, my wife and I went to a small diner for breakfast.  While we were eating, there were 4 men besides me with shaved heads.  All 5 of us were over 50.  Are most men with shaved heads over 50 years old?

Im 39 and have a full head of hair but I prefer being BBC (bald by choice). There are probably more men with MPB over 50 which is why you see it more than younger men.

  Are most men with shaved heads over 50 years old?


I first shaved my head when I was in late 40's - back in 1980 when quite uncommon. there are many here who are under 50 and a good number under 30.

While there are plenty of sly guys of many ages, I do think that bald men over 50 are way more likely to sport the "fuzzy toilet seat" than men under 50.  It seems that naturally bald men under 50 are more likely to shave their head or keep the hair a short buzz.

Most of the sly guys I'm spotting are under 50 I think. Older men prefer the buzzed look as it seems to me.

AT least a year ago I did an informal survey of ages of SBGs.  Although very inaccurate most were defintely under 50 and those around my age, 69, definitely in the minority.  What surprised me were the number that looked under 30.

No, definitely not. Most combover guys are over fifty, though.

Shaved off and on for the past few years and am 50 in september,
One thing that i find funny is the number of men who are going bald then decide the Hair Transplant route is the way for me. Oh we need to give these guys a serious talking too.

I'm over 50, but don't feel like it.  One of the best things about being sly is that unlike other hairstyles, it fits any age! 

Regarding age, my wife's grandmother lived to be 102 with her full faculties in place.  When she was in her late 90's, she began a sentence with the phrase, "now that I'm getting older..."  At that moment, I realized that age truly is all a state of mind!

I'm with Kenny, just a young buck at 20 YOA. I can grow more than a full head of hair but I think it looks messy and it my hair always felt greasy.  Besides... being bald is fun! fR!d@y
