Hello everyone!
found this site long time ago, joined, and checking it out. Great site perfekt info and support!
After lurking for a long time, I finaly took the plunge. Yeah! I`m bald.
I shaved my head last year on holydays for the first time, but let it grow when I returned to work and had a normal buzz cut.
Yesterday I went to a turkish barbershop. The guy was bald and asked me, bald? I said yes. And he did his job and shaved my dome. I can say I dig the look. Should have done it sooner.
Next step will be the 30 days. I hope when I return to work in 2 weeks I keep up the bald look.
Thank you guys for your postings and the support. O0 O0

Glad to hear you took the plunge.
How was the barber shave?

Welcome aboard! Check out all the topics....while a barbershop shave is a nice luxury/treat, keep reading the various stories...doing it yourself gets you the results that you desire (usually) Good Luck!

WelcomeBud, great to have you with us.

Welcome bud.
So you've already experienced the joy of being bald and like the look.
I encourage you to make the "30 day commitment" which reinforces your comfort with the look and the routine of maintaining it - which I find to be a highlight of my morning routine.
What are the reasons you wouldn't continue being Sly when you go back to work?

Hey guys!
Thanks so much for the warm welcome and encourage. Glad to be here
I'll be posting a pic soon.
Lynchy -the barbershave was great. It was very relaxing. Next two weeks I will be on holydays and I want to repeat it.
Today I shaved again. Day 2- It went very well. I use mach 3. I realy like the look. For the next shave I'll try the hb.
FrontierGuy- thanks for your encourage. You're right I need the routine. I think I'll shave my head every day. I like to shave my head and the bald feeling , but the reasons not to be bald during labor last time, was the fear of the comments. Like you said: I don't wish to be the center of conversation.
I hope I'll do it this time. I want to… O0 O0 O0

I don't know you or your workplace, so I'm just guessing here. But from my experience and reading the many experiences of others here, you are likely imagining the comments from others to be strong and negative. While you are much more likely to experience neutral and positive responses.
And ... I didn't believe this until it happened to me ... girls will want to touch your head. You could have knocked me over with a feather!
You'll also feel more in control if you have some witty replies in mind. Find some lines that suit your personality ... "went to a new barber and wanted to get my money's worth" ... (with a look of surprise) "oh, my new look - I thought you'd seen this shirt before" ... "I got an extra good haircut because my barber's going on holiday for three months" ... you get the idea.
Other Sly Guys ... any suggestions?
You've got nothing to worry about.
