Title: Happygosly's 30 day challenge
Post by: HappyGoSly on July 13, 2015, 09:15:55 PM
This is my 5th day sly! Tonight I shaved with a Fusion razor, and its smooth! No blood either! I'm also starting to recognize myself in the mirror.

Looks great! The Fusion is a good razor to use, I think you will ace the 30 days!

Good looking smooth and shiny. How much hair did you have? Have you received positive reactions? Welcome to the bald club. It's been over 2 years for me, and I still look in the mirror and say wow, you shaved your head!

You weren't on the fence long! The pics you posted from your barbershop shave look like you had a good amount of hair left. Stick with the Fusion for now. You'll perfect your routine in no time and if you like the look and feel pretty soon you'll be giving other new guys advice!

Glad to hear you are enjoying the new look.  You will adjust to seeing yourself without hair and then it will become harder and harder to recall how you looked with hair.   But, like reddog, I still find myself saying "wow" occasionally when I see my reflection and I've been shaving for over four years!

Great look.  Congratulations.  Now you might consider some facial hair.

Hey, congratulations again for committing to the thirty days!

The Fusion is my razor of choice as well.

Looks great and very smooth!  I don't think that you need to cover any of that face with a beard either!

I am already forgetting what you looked like with hair.  Little by little you will too.

So tell us about what kind of reactions you are getting?  Are you having fun with it?  Do you like the look/feel of your clean scalp?

The bald head will be jarring for a while, but before you know it, you'll have forgotten you with hair.  Enjoy the journey!

Hi All,

I failed at my first go at the 30 day challenge, but will try it again at some point. I have grown out my facial hair for 3 1/2 weeks now, what do you think? What should I keep/shave?

The facial hair looks great, man. As far as the 30-day challenge, I wouldn't call it a failure, at least you tried it and you know what it's like. The good thing is the next time you go sly, it will be less of a shock factor for you and others.

The facial hair is looking good.  I'd definitely keep that going.  I would lose the hair, though, hehe.  I though you looked good bald.
