I like it shaved, and plan on keeping it that way. Recently we went out of town for the wife's family reunion. Didn't have the chance or facilities to shave for two days, wife commented that she liked it better with a little fuzz and I told her no way. That's the longest my hair has been in two years and it drove me nuts. Every time I would reach up to touch my noggin, my hand was greasy and I could feel dandruff flaking up already. I do it for me, no one else. Ya don't like it? Sorry 'bout your luck.

I love being BBC!  My wife has accepted it but she would rather I had some hair.  In 35 years, this is one of very few issues we have totally different views on!   O:O

Trick question, I love the SLY look...but if I had my hair line from my pre-Navy days(over 17 years ago), I would have probably kept it.

If I had never lost my hair, I doubt that I would have ever shaved.  Although at this point in my life, I'm sure I would have had a very short buzz because it looks good and is easy/cheap to maintain.  Now, I would like to have the option to have a full head of hair, but I would probably shave it in the summer months since I know what it's like, and I love the feeling.  I won't hold my breath for a miracle cure.

I don't think I could answer this fairly, I love my bald head now, but it probably would depend on the type of hair that I COULD have...if that makes any sense? I mean I would want a goofy hair style just to have hair...

I love being bald and like the way I look better now vs. when I did have a full head of hair.  My wife also loves my sly look over me having hair.

I will never go back to hair, as I can't stand the shadow feel of stubble at the end of the day.... out comes the razor for the total smooth feel.

Sgt Pate,sorry to hear your wife has objections to your smooth dome. Mine does too, although I am hoping to turn her around.

JB, I,like you, cannot stand to have the stubble feeling. I have to have a smooth slick bald head to go out or even go to sleep.


The odds of hair in future are slim to nil. Not going to happen.

Since joining the Marine Corps I wore nothing but a high and tight flattop.  While that was minimal hair, my hair grows fast and it meant weekly trips to the barber to keep it just right.  Now that I am BBC I think I look better than with hair and I love it shaved smooth.  See no reason to ever go back to a full head of hair.

If there was a pill available that would cause every single hair to fall out permanently on my entire head(with no other side effects-just causing total hair loss), I'd take it. Still like to shave though....

Thanks Warhawk I'm going to keep growing it out until the missus tells me to shave it. I'm digging it.

Sucks tho because although hair on my head grows at an astronomical rate, my facial hair takes ages to get to a decent length and also is not very thick.

I prefer bald! I got a little receding hairline going on, but I prefer to shave then have to look at my grey hair. When my hair turned grey it took on a different texture too. Slick bald is my preference and people tell me I look good with it. Why change the formula at this point.

I have a full head of hair but like to shave it. If I could really chose, I would still prefer to have hair and shave it.
I like the whole process... the shaving process, seeing stubble again netx day, re-shave it or let it grow a little... shave again, etc.
I like all stages. Feeling a tiny carpet of hair a week or so without shaving is good, feeling it completely smooth is also good. If I knew how good wass al that, I would have started very earlier.

Oto, feeling it smooth and slick is so much better.   :@`
I'm surprised you don't dread the velcro? I know myself and I would guess about 99% of the other bald brudda's feel the same. What do you think guys?

Six weeks into SLY, I find a day's stubble annoying.  On more days than not lately, I've been shaving 2X/day. 

Cheers,

Yeah I've finally decided to accept who I am, and be bold and bald!

I had no choice. Started thinning in my mid to late 20's. Now 33. In all honesty I think if I still had a thick head of hair. I don't think I would have even come across this forum.
