Well my fellow sly guys:I will have to admit defeat and grow my hair back.Since the balding experience began,i have been plagued by headaches since going bald due to the cold.I lose a lot of heat from my head and don't want to always wear a hat.
So starting today i will be growing the insulation back.
I know:I failed.But after having a headache for the last 3 days straight,i'll do anything to remedy that.

I wouldn't call sly induced headaches failure. I don't think anyone here expects you to suffer in order to stay sly. You can always shave again when the weather warms up.
We will still like you with hair Handlbar, just not as much. :)

Your health has gotta come first handle...but ya are gonna stick around, aren't ya?

Yup...just be a warm weather SLY guy...now worries...inspring you can go into a barbershop and tell your barber to shave your head completely bald...
very fun when it's full of customers!
Stick around bro...you've tasted sly...you'll be back! 8)

Sorry to hear about the headaches. Hey, you could always move to a warmer climate. LOL... Hope you will still hang around let us know how you're doing.

I shaved my head on a couple of different occasions before I made it my permanent look. One time was in late spring or early summer, and I found myself getting headaches when I prespired. The whole back of my head would get damp and it would cause a headache. All I can say is that eventually the problem went away. Maybe if you try again when the weather is warmer, by the time autumn rolls around again, you'll be used to it and it won't be a problem anymore.
I never had much of a problem with the cold. The first time I got a buzz cut, it was in the winter time and I noticed a huge difference -- the back of my head really felt cold. But I did not notice any difference between the buzz cut and completely shaved.

No failure your just temparally fixing a small problem.
Like everyone else said don't go anywhere
Like Andre said "you've got the taste"
Your still sly at heart for now O0

NOOOOOOOOO ! ! ! !
Aw man, you look great sly; what a shame !
Take my advice about experimenting with cool hats !
Don't grow it back ! !
Now after my initial upset; yeah; it's too bad you are growing it back, cause it looks great. Sorry about the headaches ! Do what you think is best and stick around; you are a great contributor to the forum.

jim.....sorry 2 hear that u will b growing your hair back but that's why they invented hats & shelter. if u have a hat or beanie & shelter....u should b headache-free. am i right?? when going outside...u could temporarily wear a hat or beanie 2 protect the noggin from the cold air. once u get indoors....u can remove the headwear...& show off the slick noggin'. SO THERE....PROBLEM SOLVED. O0
jim...whatever decision that u make... u got the support of the sly brahs. hope u stick around.

Sorry to hear you're growin it back, can't say I blame ya though. I hope it all works out in the end for ya, and keep us updated on the headache situation!
-
Jim thats cool, well sorta...but hey you are still a sly bro ...right?? Yes you are. You have to do what ever is best for your health. Aint no fun tryin to joke around with someone who has a headache....I have tried that before and ended up with a black eye. If I do that I will have to paint my face white and become a skull! LOL
Good luck and hope this relieves yoru problem with head ache. See ya around and you had better post in here often....even if it is just to say hey.

Thanks ever so much fellas for the kind words and positive thoughts!! I think i might be a sly bald fella during the spring and summer.I have tried the hat thing in ll situations and i find myself wearing it too much.Sort of negates the ability to show off that bald head if i'm always wearing a hat! LOL
So i will play it out and see what transpires.
And i will still be around.Just because i'm letting some hair grow doesn't mean i will be a shaggy dog! Maybe just grow enough hair to stop the headaches.

You look great sly but obviously you need to do what you must. Sly for summer, hair for winter? Well, why not? The best of both worlds I guess - whatever you decide to do though, don't be a stranger. O0
-
I really liked the sly look with the handlebar stache, however, slyness should not be at the cost of comfort. Stick around and don't be a stranger.
-
Hey Jim, I understand what you're saying. You gotta do what's right for you.
Maybe with a little more time it won't be as bad, or it's possible it may even go away,
as it did for Razor.
You could also try one of the knit caps or beanies, as they call them.
Anyway, keep us posted on how things go for you.
-
Jim, sorry to hear about your headaches... maybe grow it back and see if that solves the problem... no matter what the handlebar look is definitely you bro! You've got our support no matter what!
-
Well fellas,i have grown about 1/4" back on the melon and the headaches have disappeared.So i will most likely keep it real short through the winter and then shave it when may rolls around.My wife likes the length too as the stubble i had after a day without shaving was a real irritant to her.So now all is well.
Thanks for the support.

If I had to put a spin on it, I'd call it penance. :)
Actually, once during Lent, I grew my hair out ... it WAS a penance.
