Hi guys! My hair is thinning so I've been really bummed by it, in September I used my clippers with the 0 setting and shaved my head while my girlfriend was sleeping. She was really surprised when she woke up next to my bald head. There were some shocked people but for the most part it was not a big deal. My hair has grown since then, and my girlfriend wants me to grow out my hair but man do I miss not having to use shampoo or comb my hair. It was definitely a cool experience!

Welcome, you would look good Sly O0

Welcome Pvpop ... if your hair is thinning it may not be long until your bald head is enjoying that cool experience again.
Of course, you can have it now without waiting for Mother Nature to slowly and agonizingly get you there. I think the choice is yours :-)

Welcome mate,
Have you razor shaved it yet? Looks very similar to the #0 buzz but feels amazing!
Hope you enjoy the place!
Cheers

Welcome!

Looks great. You will like it even better once you get out the razor for a great shave to get a nice smooth dome.
-
Yes, man. Razor shaving looks almost the same at clippers at zero, but the feel is incredible. The smoothness is adicting. I keep coming back each morning for another smooth dome. Love shaving my head.
Give it a spin. You won't want to go back to hair.

Welcome aboard!

Welcome mate,
Now you've had that sniff of baldness, I'm sure it wont be long before you are back for more >:D
If you've still got enough hair to enjoy then go for it, if that's what you want. Me on the other hand, I've been done with hair for the past 6 months and couldn't be happier O0

G'Day PVpop87 O0
Welcome to Sly Heaven mate.
Now listen here!! You have to resist the temptation to go back to the Dark Side!!
Remember the feeling and freshness of a nice smooth shaved noggin!!

Good story man. I love the idea of your girlfriend waking up to unexpectably find a bald head on the pillow next to her. Wish I could have done something like that.
So she wants you to grow your hair out again. The sacrifices that we blokes have to make for our women. Oh well. If you have to grow it back just remember that there is plenty of time in the future to become streamlined again especially with thinning hair. At least you now know that you look great bald so the final, permanent transition should be smooth sailing.

So good news guys. I've decided that since rec league basketball season starts up soon, which I usually grow my hair out for... I'll do something different and razor shave it. My girlfriend has volunteered to assist too. Thanks for the encouragement... I owe it all to you guys.

Oh, and welcome bro. O0

Looks good, looks natural -- like you have been wearing it that way for years. And it's great to know that you never have to change it unless you want to -- isn't it?
It's great to be free from "the tyranny of hair".
Big tobacco, big pharma, big HPS [Hair Product Suppliers] -- maybe that's going too far, not sure.

Update: after much consideration I'll be razor shaving my head for bball, I'll be keeping my beard, which is coming in quite nicely. This is happening first weekend in march. I'll have pictures maybe even a video. I figure I'll be faster on the court as there will be less wind resistance. : )
-
Glad to hear mate!
I always claim aerodynamics as one of being balsa many advantages!
-
Way to go, Pop. Looks like you'll have a good shine. Keep the 30 day rule.
Video, too. That's nice. Thanks. Look forward to the pics.

Hey guys, it's been a while. I'm planning on going completely and probably permanently sly tomorrow and was wondering if I could use my girlfriends Venus razor to accomplish that and save money? Thoughts?
-
My guess is there is very little difference in men's and women's razors, except for the color.
-
I am with Slybeard. There probably is very little difference between the men's and the women's version of razors. I just looked at the razor on the Gillette website, and the blades look very much like those of my Fusion, except the Venus seems to have more of a surface cushion area.
Why not just use what you already have for your beard?
-
I've been growing out my beard so I don't have anything for it lol

Welcome to the club.

would you really want to be caught alive shaving with a PINK razor? (joke).
Enjoy the new experience of a shaved head.

If anyone caught me shaving with a razor they would also have caught me in the nude. At that point, the colour of the razor would probably haven't have been an issue.

Welcome, bro.
You've made a great decision to be bald-by-choice. Suggestion for you: Let your gf give you a haircut (if there is much to cut) & then let her shave you nice & smooth.... Chances are that she'll want to continue on a regular basis to shave your head. My wife enjoys shaving my head when she gets the opportunity. A bit of advice: It is best not to use someone else's razor (purely for health & hygiene reasons) - I would recommend that you buy either plain Bic razors, Schick Extreme razor or Gillette Mach III for shaving your head.
Remember to take pics of the process.
All the best.
