I finally took the plunge (all tho not completely shaved) and I feel phenomenal. I buzzed it down to a 1 and I feel like a new person. I now very rarely think about my hair loss (well at least no where near as much as I did beforehand.) please let me know what you guys think!

It look really good! Cold Stone.
Did you buzz yourself, or have barber or friend help out? I did my own when that day came. Then just kept taking the clippers down a notch every several weeks until I was buzzing no guard. At that point, some friends here on SBG and elsewhere asked "What keeping you from the razor blade" and I had no good reason.
This #1 will help in getting a bit of a tan on top, although that really develops when you use a razor.
It's a good feeling, isn't it!

Looks outstanding! Nice head shape, should look excellent shaved. You wouldn't believe the difference in 1/8 inch.
-
Reddog is right. That last 1/8 inch is a big deal. If you like the #1 .... when you are ready, give the blade a try. You'll be back to #1 in about a week if you freak out. But most guys who try it never go back.

That smile says it all. Congratulations!
I am glad you are happy with the decision.
-
Looks great!
-
Looks awesome! Congrats.
-
That looks great, and the important thing is that you feel great, well done
-
look great. i am sure that you will want to keep that short and in time to be shaved.
-
The buzz looks awesome. Congrats on taking the plunge!
-
Looking good
-
I echo the others by saying it looks great!
-
Congratulations! Nice job.

Quick update: My girlfriend did the buzz for me, and I've been re-buzzing it every 5-6 days. I really do like how it looks now, but I can't shake the feeling that all skin will look all that great. I definitely do not think about it nearly as much and even when I do I know it's not the end of the world, but I definitely do feel better. Are there any of you guys that felt/feel the same way?

Yes, I definitely feel the same way. I always feel best about myself when my head is fresh and clean shaven.

Whoops, I meant to say that I don't really think that going completely sly would look that good because it's just ALL skin and no color ya know? What do you guys think?
-
Its all about how you feel about it. If you do go sly, as you have dark hair you will still have colour, or you will after a few growing hours. Considering many of us think we cannot grow hair, its amazing how quickly it grows after you have shaved!
-
finish it with a razor shave.
-
Looks good, bro. However, you will not truly know the difference until you have your head razor shaved...... it is a totally different look & feel to just buzzed.
Anyhow, welcome to this great site.
