Title: Almost back!
Post by: Bald Bill on April 14, 2026, 05:38:29 PM
Evening all. For the past many years I have mainly been flattop, but occasionally a close bald and sometimes bald. I decided 2 weeks ago to go to a shop for a close buzz - YES! But it's probably not close enough as I have the smooth urge. Today I went to a real shop and got a number one top and 0 sides. With my fine texture hair and tan it looks darn bald. See how the next few days ago. Will the tight burr/butch stay or will smooth take control? I have missed you all

Welcome back, or almost back.  If I could, I would likely have a flattop part time as well.  Even when I had hair, my hair texture would not hold a flattop, my growth directions were too strong, and wrong for a flattop.  I did try it a few times, it just never worked.

I don't know how you do it Bill! I've tried to grow my hair back a couple dozen times, but always shave it off again. I did make it long enough to have a pretty decent flattop a couple times, but I couldn't stand it and shaved bald again. Once you start thinking about going back to a shaved head, you have to give in and do it!
