Title: The first cut was the hardest
Post by: Cave Dweller on January 14, 2013, 07:41:42 PM
I was thinking about shaving off the horseshoe for about two months.  At 3:00 p.m. on January 1, while my wife was napping, I went into the bathroom, got out the clippers, and stared at my head.  Then, with a deep breath, I started clipping it off.  I got two bad cuts during the first shave, but compared to what I did to by face at fifteen during THAT first shave, these were nothing.

My wife likes it.  My co-workers like it.  And most importantly, *I* really like it.

Now, if only the shaved area would hurry up and tan...

Glad to find this forum!

Welcome dweller.

That was a great gift to yourself. As time goes on you will realize more and more benefits of being sly which you could never have imagined.

Stick around and partake of the knowledge, banter, support and hilarity that is the SBG community.

Please have a complimentary virtual head rub. It looks good. Like your story.

I only told a few friends and the guys here on sbg that I was going to shave my head. It was a surprise to everyone else. Positive comments from all. And now, its just me. Everyone likes the look.

It can be difficult until the first shave, but then it's way more difficult to stop shaving :)
Looks good!

Welcome my friend. Andrei's words are so true. And every time that you shave it it feels fantastic -- how lucky are we?

HOW TRUE! Here I go again. Time to shave my head. Can't wait. It will be a year of shaves on Saturday. The smooth head is very satisfying.

Nice job I have started trying to talk my dad into shaving off his horse shoe. He just doesn't want to give it up. He was not happy when I went sly but said it's your head just don't get sick lol.

That's funny. Shaving is such a dangerous thing to do. I guess you could die from blood loss but that would be extreme and involve a straight razor.

Funny....the very people (dads) who are responsible for our hairloss are the ones who get the most upset when we do something (proactive) about it.......My dad and my dad's dad were adamant about keeping their remaining hair even with the donut hole/horseshoe...

I joke with him about it now. I tell hime if he shaved the horse shoe and the gray mustache he would look probably 10 years younger. he just doesn't see it yet.

Welcome to the family mate, how good is it to know that everyone important is on board? Of course you'll still get the occasional nay-sayer but that's to be expected really!

Of course they (and you) like it cause it melds in perfectly for you. I also do not see an issue with tanning? Looks all smooth and slick
