I'm convinced.
So, yeah, I'm shaving it every day, more or less, and am a huge fan. I got over the occasional knick in the beginning, now I don't even cut myself anymore, which is a nice little side benefit.
Reactions initially were just shock, which moved to general acceptance, with a few people VERY impressed. So far I have only had one person give me a neg reaction, but even that wasn't a negative, just a "Wow, you actually did it? Huh."
A couple of days ago, I was talking with a girl who had never seen me with hair, and for whatever reason, remarked that I needed to shave my head again. She replied that she couldn't even imagine me with hair. This got me thinking, and wow, I agree, even *I* think hair would look weird on me now. I'm just so used to it, I can't imagine anything else.
And yes, head rubs are awesome. :)
So, yeah, I'm very impressed. Only negatives are cold (solved by my beanie) and it hurts more to hit your head on something. Apart from that, it's awesome.
That's all. :)

You sure you arent another TimmJ? Sounds like everything I went thru. And Yes..waht is it about hitting your head now? I never use to hit my head....now I bump it on everything. I think my hair use to act as sensors...they would alert me to duck..bend, stoop or what ever to avoid hitting something. I dont know how many times I have walked thru the furnace room ( yeah thats where I burn the dead bodies) and never hit my head on the duct work..but now I hit it all the time...like someone moved it or something. LOL

Awesome story, NewShaver. It's great that you're having such a positive experience. I haven't had to deal with hitting my head as much. Seem like I was always hitting it before. I think I'm just more careful now. But, I do agree with you on the cold. Finally got a hat I like to wear this week. Still hate to cover up the dome, but at least for the times when I'm out in the cold, it'll have to do.

HEY TIMM, i just figured out why you keep bumping your head ! remember , they say the LESS hair ya have the more HEAD you get, WELL... your head is thicker than your hair so it IS taller than before , either that OR your heads gettin bigger because your brain is gettin BIGGER ? nah , thats NOT IT ! (jus check yer spelen :*)) )
-
Hey that's really WIERD :D The bumping head thing happens to me all the time now. Before i went sly it WAS like yer hair acts as sensors to stop yer head gettin too near things, but now I'm always doin it. :D :D
Yeah, newshaver: glad you're enjoying the SLY life. Keep at it. bro O0
