Hows it goin fellow sly guys. Well my story is my hair started thinning when i was 21 so i figured ill just shave it and hope for the best (didnt know if i was gonna look good shaved). I guess im kinda happy with it my head isnt really wierd shaped or anything so its not bad. Only thing is my skin is kinda on the whiteish side and you can see my hairline "shadow"a little when my head is shaved, anything i can do to darken the skin on my head a little so is less noticeable, perhaps some sunless tanner? also whats the best way to shave, i currently use barbisol gel let it soak in for about 30 seconds and then shave with the Gillete fusion (5 blades) and it works pretty good. My main hobby is cars and pretty much every day i work on or am doin somethin with cars. I went to lincoln technical institute majoring in automotive technology after highscool so i pretty much know everything about cars. Im also into computers, i built my own custom pc and riding quads and dirtbikes. Anyway heres a pic of me and my car from 03 right before i started shaving my head and a pic of me today. Let me know what you guys think!

Welcome to the forum,looks good to me 8)
Best thing i think would be to get out in the sun but make sure you have a good suncream on,dont wanna burn the noggin

Welcome to Sly Bald Guys!! Looking very sly!
There are several guys that use the fusion, so you have a good blade. You may want to try something different than Barbesol, such as Bald Guyz shave gel or HeadSlick from HeadBlade. If you're not already doing it, try shaving against the grain. This will help you get a smoother shave and less shadow.

Cool hobby.
As far as eliminating the paleness that first accompanies the sly look you can either spend a lot of time outdoors without a hat and with sunscreen or you can go to a local tanning salon where you can set the time you spend in a bed. Or you can do the sunless option you suggested, but that doesn't stay permanently.
Welcome.

Welcome to the SBG forum War97GTS, the Sly look suits you well. I use Nivia for men (touch of sun) it's builds a suntanned look over three days, and seems to work pretty good, and doesnt turn your face or hands orange and doesn't streak. The only problem with this product is that once you start using it, you have to keep using it to maintain that suntanned look, or it will fade after a couple of days.
