Title: Breaking Bad! I did it!!!!
Post by: Ballbuster on August 15, 2012, 03:35:44 PM
Hello everyone...

My name is Bob and I'm now SLY!  Just took the plunge after years and years of suffering with my hair. It had handicapped me in every way, and I just couldn't go through with it...till I started reading this forum. I had the ponytail and nothing else look for the last 15 years...

Here is the new me! I cannot believe I did not do this sooner...

Thanks Guys... I think I'll burn all the "before Pics"   :*))

Lets just say they are NOT flattering. I literally feel like I got a tumor removed from my head!  

I posted on Facebook a little while ago and EVERYONE loves it...I feel re-born at 46 years old!

Awesome! Welcome to the site, buster! It looks great on you. Glad to see you are enjoying it already. Isn't it a nice feeling, to get rid of such a burden? O0
Feel free to look around and ask any questions you may have.

From the first sweep of the buzzer I knew it was right....
When I think of all the anxiety that I have suffered from over the years I seriously want to cry tears of joy right now...
I don't have to get into it, I'm sure you all know what I'm talking about...I am a little overwhelmed right now.
The best part is I LOVE IT!

Deep breath. Sit back. Rub your newly shaved head a bunch of times and have a beer or two, or more.  ;D

Looking downright awesome.

It's invigorating for all of us to read of someone who took charge, made the change, and instantly felt the stress and anxiety melt away.

I sense there's no need to encourage you to make the "30 day commitment" but I will suggest it anyway because it will reinforce the new motor skills and the change to your daily routine(s) and also the assimilation of the "new you" for yourself and others.

Sensational.

Post by: Ballbuster on August 15, 2012, 05:03:25 PM
Thank you!
30 days?  More like 30 YEARS!
The feeling was instant: I'M FREE!!!!!
Could never go back...

My wife said, "You look like you should be in the movies as an undercover agent." That's a compliment.

Good job. Sir. Stick around and encourage other guys who have been doing the ponytail only thing for years.

Shaving your head really is refreshing.

And to everyone, ANOTHER Guy who wonders why he did not do this sooner!!!!

I love it.

Hello Buster, welcome to the Sly brotherhood.

I must say, the look really suits you.  No wonder you have already decided that it is a keeper.

Nice to read your enthusiasm and how you were liberated.  I did exactly the same thing at age 46.

Welcome at Bob

I could totally relate to taking control of your head
Yes half hair is kinda like a tumor.
Worthless and it keeps coming back
I Love how you took TOTAL CONTROL of it

You look Bad Ass

Thanks Guys!

Today was my first day "out" with the new dome. I saw two regular clients of mine and they both very complimentary...Haven't had one negative response yet...over 100 likes and comments on Facebook...ALL POSITIVE! My ex girlfriend joked she wants to marry me now!

Just took all my combs, brushes, gels, ponytail holders, baseball hats and threw them in the garbage! O0

This is the first day of the rest of my life...couldn't be happier.

Where is the best place on the forum to post a detailed account of the horror i was living with, as to inspire others NOT to live with anxiety and self consciousness for one more day. I would really like to give something back here as this site has changed my life!

Welcome to the brotherhood, Bob!  You are a natural for the sly look.

So glad to hear that being bald has been such a positive change in your life. I hope those lurkers and fence-sitters out there take note.
I'd say to be on the safe side, that you can share your story under General Discussion under Various Bald Discussions.
Thank you for wanting to contribute!

Looks great, and you look much younger than you are! It makes me happy every time someone shares their 'emancipation' from the tyranny of hair. Glad you're loving it.

Congratulations on the plunge!  It looks amazing.  You really are suited for the look.  O0

Also, thanks for the Breaking Bad mention!  Has anybody else noticed that almost all the male characters (Walt, Hank, Mike, Jesse to an extent, and even Gustavo back in the day was pretty close shaved!) are sly?  I love watching that show with my girl: we sit back and laugh, saying "Damn! look at all those sly guys!"

LOVE the show! Walter was part of my inspiration as well. He looks so bad ass bald!

First SLY week was a smashing success. I am a new man...

Ballbuster, you were primed for success ... but it's always great to see it acknowledged.

Your avatar could not depict a more naturally Sly Bald Guy. 
[Wow, that's a great phrase - Sly Bald Guys. Someone should use that for a website.]

I know right, you should probably snatch that up before someone else takes it!
