Hey guys just wanna say a massive thank you to every one of you. Ive been a long time lurker . And i finally built up enough courage to shave my head at the age of 26 it was a bit depressing at first but it helped reading this forum big time as i saw i was not the only young guy with thinning hair and now im happier than ever!

Hello and welcome Bobster.
Congratulations on your decision. It is indeed rewarding to know that we have helped someone come to terms with hairloss, and to de stigmatise shaving bald as a solution.
-
Hey waine thanks man! Have a great day!
-
Welcome to the Forum at long last Bobster! We knew you were out there! ;) Not really......

Welcome to SBG, Bobster.
See you are from as Scotland. So how about Chris Hoy's six golds victory now ? Terrific !!!
-
Hey mr jules. i think that he now has the most golds for a British athlete at the olympics ever which to be quite honest is amazing :-) . I heard that he also has to get trousers specially made for him self as his thighs are that big! Crazy lol

Doesn't surprise me about him needing special trousers.
Well if you saw Chris Hoy's performance in the Olympic velodrome last night --- what a hero.
How many days have you been shaving your head ?
-
Welcome, bobster. Always glad to hear of another soul freeing himself from hairline prison. Keep up the great work! O0
-
About 3 days i had been buzzing it for about 2 months but was getting quite bad rash just above the nape of my neck but using a razor seems to have sorted it. Ive also purchased some witch hazel aswell just incase. Whats the best way to use it do u know ?

Bobster,
You can get bottled witch hazel from your local chemist - about 2 quid.
Dab it on your post shaven head with cotton wool.
-
Yeah the one i have has a spray nozzel on it? Just apply straight to head post shave and let to dry ?
-
Welcome bobster! Last year i shaved my head for the first time and i was 26 then !
-
Wonderer its good to know that we weren't the only ones going through this right? I know it feels as though we were the only ones at the time but this place is great for bringing people like our selfs together to talk about it !
-
bobster -excellent point brother ,i was also long time lurker in fact i was "lurking" one entire year before i post my first "stupid" :D comment(it was a question actually... )
-
I dont think any question about anything on this forum is stupid man. All the guys seem quite understanding which is quite nice. Cause there isnt alot of understanding people in this world today tbh!
-
O yeah ,not stupid try this : I asked is my head too big :D that's stupid enough to be qualified in my first ten i would think ;D
-
bobster man I am just kidding ,there are no stupid questions O0 (head shape and size is the main concern that bothers our newbies -and some oldies like me )
-
Thanks guys. I also ordered a new edward jagger de DE89L . So hopefully it arrives before the weekend ! Hope you both have a great day!! :-)
I bought one of these 5 -6 weeks back... you're gonna love it!!
-
Welcome, Bobster :/O!

-

Way to go bobster....looks amazing O0
I would advocate a beard but then I am slightly biased, have you grown one before going sly?
-
Looks good, bobster! Facial hair, if you want it, certainly can't hurt!
-
looks great!
-
Looking good Bobster.
Looking at your photograph, I think you can get away with wearing the Sly look without any facial hair.
-
Shaved looks great on you Bobster, brings out your eyes. Since you can grow facial hair, I suggest you try it and see which are you most comfortable and confident with, although a clean face looks great on you.
-
Thanks for the comments guys im in the process of doing so now. Ill report back in a weeks time and let u know how its going :-)
-
bobster -this really suits you ,keep it ! O0
-
One more in to the brotherhood! Looks great O0
The facial hair could had more character to the look, try it and see how it goes.
