I have a friend of mine who seems to be able to just buzz or shave his hair without a care in the world. We both have full heads of hair but Im envious of his ability to just shave his own head, because as he says, it's just fun. I've wanted to shave mine for awhile but just can't seem to do it for whatever reason. I don't know, what do you guys think. Am I just over thinking it? Should I just do what he does?
-
You should try it. That's the benefit of being a guy. You can just shave or buzz your hair without a care and it's no big deal.
-
Im really tempted to try it because it's something I've just wanted to do BUT I just can't seem to get over the hurdle. I have a feeling I'll take a swipe with the clippers across my head and regret it.
-
I did. I shaved my head. And I like the results. You can always grow it back.
Have your barber do it for you. Once your head is bald, you'll experience the thrill that so many guys on this site talk about.
A shaved head is a very liberating feeling.
-
Sure you can do it! It'll be one of many challenges that you conquered in your life...get a barber to do it, or "friend of mine", but the big kick will be if you cut it off. If you don't like it grow it back in a couple weeks. Good luck.
O:O
-
damn it. headshave, one of the easiest things to do.
go ahead and do it!
-
Do it. If you don't you will always wonder. I had the same obsession until I finally told my barber to shave it all off and I haven't looked back.
-
Just try it. You know you might like it!
-
I have to agree that there is only one way to find out if you'll like it and that is to shave it off.
If you don't like it grow it back..... 8)
-
Post a picture so we can see!
-
Stop feeling envy and just do it. You know you will like it.
-
Feeling as you do, you got to shave the noggin. You won't rest easy until you do. Just do it.

I don't know many people who are BBC and don't LOVE IT

What caused you to decide to go bald by choice?
-
Well I loved the look. I have really thick indian hair aswell. Its wavy and curly and one day my friend dared me to shave it slick so I did and fell in love. Now I have receding hairline just barely, I guess its called widow peak. But I love the smooth feel and its just been more convienent over the last year.
-
ok so Im seriously thinking of doing this. Here's what I look like now, how short should I go to start with? Im a beginner so take it easy.
-
haha we don't take it easy on anyone here. I would say go straight to bald but you should do what your comfortable with. Get your clippers and just pick a guard length or be really cool and go for it. Trust me, you'll feel great once you do it.
-
come on dude, do it. You know that you want to, and you'll be fine. Bro, trust me, once you take those first few swipes you'll feel like such a man.
-
Im going to do it. I'll post a pic in a few. Im still not sure about this but I can't keep putting this off.
-
ok guys, I did it MYSELF. My head feels so strange. What do you guys think, can I pull it off?
-
Your off to a good start but that's not NEARLY short enough. Come on, man up and go shorter!
-

OH GOSH, you joking right, this is so short.
-
I agree bro, you need to go shorter. Come on, what's holding you back? I'll tell you what, I haven't cut my hair in a while and I've been itching to do it again. If you go all the way, I'll shave my head bald. There, you'll get something outta this and we'll both be in this together. Is that a deal?

Dude are you serious? If I go shorter you'll shave your head? If your serious then thats a deal man.
-
ok you gotta go for it, and go for it now.
-
;D you'll love it. I did
-
Off! Off!
I'd write more, but it's time to shave the dome for the day. Ah, bliss!
-
ok dude. I really went further then I thought I EVER would. Gah, my head feels so strange, there's nothing there anymore. Now it's your turn bwhahah owned.
-

'owned' oh no. I STILL see hair! I said you've gotta go all that way, that means bald. Come on man, just grab your shaving cream and razor and go for it. That's the deal, unless your going to chicken out O:O

Dude, this is so short, you really want me to bic my entire head?
-
That was the deal. It's up to you, what you want to do but if you don't go all the way and reveal a bald head, then NO HAIRCUT for me O:O come on, be a man, dont cry about it. Im offering to shave my own head to get you to try and be bald at least once in your life.
-
HOLY FUCKING COW. I NEVER thought I would ever have shaved my head entirely bald. Dude if I could shave your head myself I would, just to know %100 that your as bald as I am right now. My head feels like nothing I've ever felt before., work will be interesting today.
-
Congratulations, Gypsy. I can feel your excitement about the first day sly.
Good start for the 30 day challenge. Today is my day 21. My head is slicker than day 1. (takes a few times to get the super smooth shave). You carry the sly head very well. Just watch it, you'll be rubbing your head all day, soaking in the new feeling.
Welcome to being sly. If you were in town, I'd take you out to lunch to show off the bald heads. Wear it proudly. You look much better bald than with hair.
-
Enjoy the new feeling and look - it looks good on you! I'll warn you: a smoothly shaved head is very addictive!
-
Dang ! You got that badd-ass sly look now ! Congrats ! That's a KEEPER ! Just pose a smile and stay sly a long while !
-
INDEED! It is a keeper...lookin' good!
-
Shave it ! 😄
-
You look great - - -now enjoy it - - -it is fun to be SLY BALD
-
Nice job you look great.
-
Total transformation! Looks AWESOME!!
-
Let us know how Day 1 at work went. Bet you'll shave again tomorrow.
-
HOLY f**kING COW. I NEVER thought I would ever have shaved my head entirely bald. Dude if I could shave your head myself I would, just to know %100 that your as bald as I am right now. My head feels like nothing I've ever felt before., work will be interesting today.
Dude, you rock. As a man, I'll shave my head in honor of our deal. Here's my before picture ....

I can't believe this is actually going to happen ;D I should have gotten in on the deal
-
Come on Quin, its not to late to join. Im sure gypsy wouldn't mind having two bald buddies. Have you not shaved your head in awhile?
-
Congrats for going all the way....now enjoy. It looks great and I agree with others, it is a KEEPER
-
No, I haven't in a long time. ok, I'll do it with you. Here's my before picture. hahah Im laughing at myself for doing this again.
-
I'm loving these "shaving challenges"! Anyone else think it's a good idea to have a "bald challenge" section of the forum where people have kind of a buddy system where they agree to shave their heads at the same time? Could be really beneficial to fencers and lurkers that need a push in the right direction.
-
ok Quin, are you ready to revel the shiny dome of yours? Because here's mine and it feels awesome to be back to bald. Men rule for being able to do this
-
blam Im bald . I went straight to my clippers and just went for it without hesitation. I agree, a shaving challenge/bald buddies section would rock.
-
excellent well done guys

You are meant to be sly!

totally!
-
Good look, gypsy! Keep it!
-
Wow, three new sly guys in one day. Way to go, guys. You all rock the sly look. Now keep it up for 30 days.
-
welcome and good work to the three of you above!
-
WTG guys. Looking good. 8)
-
great look on you!
-
Good job guys! BTW, I was having a @*$&@ day until reading through these posts! LMAO but in a good way! Thanks for the laughs! Maybe I could challenge a couple of MPB buddies to shave their heads too!
-
I showed this thread to my wife (who's still not crazy about my BBC). She started laughing as I scrolled up and down the list and all of the profile pictures you would bald guys. Not a one with any hair on top.!!! The whole crowd. All shaved bald. She got a kick out of that. I did too.
-
Good deal fellas! O0 O0 O0 O0
-
Gypsy and Cesar,
You both look great. Congradulations on taking the plunge.
-
Looks good.
-
Let's hear some follow up. Are you three keeping your heads shaved? Or was it just for one day?
-
Looks great Gypsy. You have to keep shaving and enjoyinh for 30 days now. You know you want to ... O:O
-
Welcome Arthur. I think you will agree both the baldbuzz and baldfinish are an improvement. I think it looks great for you.
-
Looks great
-
Looks good! Keep it up!
-
Arthur, looks good. Well done. Now give it the 30 day challenge. Looks like you could sport a nice beard with the bald head, too.
-
Looks great Arthur. Keep it up!! 8)
-
Well done Arthur. Being sly really suits you. As Mrzed said, try the 30-day sly challenge. I doubt you'll want to go back to having hair once you've given the sly look a chance to sink in.
-
Congrats! Looks great. On to 30 days.
-
Im new here and have been tempted to shave my head for the longest time. Seeing this bald challenge really spurred my willingness to just jump right in and join the guys. So here we go, my bald adventure begins.
Once you get the itch to experience being bald, it doesn't go away until you try it. But once you try it and stick with it for 30 days, you won't want to go back to having hair. Being bald is a great feeling - enjoy it!
-
Hey Arthur!
The bald dome works well for you. Keep it shaved!
-
Arthur, I like the four transition photos. Both buzz and bald suit you well.
Like others say here, go for the 30 sly trial. A month later, you may very well want to keep it. I did.
-
wow, good job arthur. Way to go for it.
-

Shaved head looks great bro! How was going from clipper shaved to bic'ed? Just at that point right now and I would same I am about your age, but having a hard time making the plunge. Any suggestions? Thanks man!
-
are you a New Yorker, MR Rod?
-
What can I say Arthur looks amazing , keep it going
-
Wow Arthur, what a transformation. The bald look is just so good on you. O0 Hope you'll decide to keep it - looks really great.

Actually I think that's a great idea. How would we go about setting something like that up Mods?
-
Great job guys. This is a great thread. I love the shaving challenges, so cool O:O
-
Let's do one better....how about a straight razor/DE challenge? I have not shaved since Tuesday, so tomorrow, (if I'm friggin' off) I will use my DE on my face AND head! Who's with me?
