How about sweat? It’s the one thing that I hate about being sly. In the summer, there is no hair to help the sweat evaporate. There wasn’t much to begin with, but there’s nothing now. What do you do? A hat just seems to make it worse.
-
I have the same problem. Seems like I sweat, on my smooth dome only, during the winter as well as summer.
I use the Bald Guyz wipes and really like them ...
-
I'm going to agree with Andrew... Bald Guyz Headwipes are absolutely awesome! I always have several on me in the summer time.
-
Yeah, it's a disadvantage not to have hair to block the sweat from running down your head.
-
My wife carries a little towel for me from about April 1st to Halloween every year so I can towel off................ Yeah, I'm a sweat hog.........
-
Don't sweat then...problem solved.
If I'm ever in a restroom, I just get some cold water in my hands, rub the dome, and use a couple of paper towels to dry off.
Simple, economical, and effective.
-
Yup... I totally agree! Wearing glasses and trying to work looking down makes it even worse! That's why I picked up some "doo rags". (Sure wish I could gt a SBG Doo Rag though... hint hint!) ;D
-
Hats tend to retain the sweat for me (at least keeping it out of my eyes) and most of the time I keep a bandanna in my pocket or in the truck (it can be a doo rag, a headband or a towel).
-
Handkerchief. In the hot months, I keep two ... one for blowing my nose and one for wiping off sweat.
-
All the above work well its just an extra step in the life to be sly
-
Gotta' agree with the Sgt........ some SBG do rags would be nice.......
I love do rags.........
-
I keep a small crisp white towel on me during hot days to soak up the sweat.
-
WELL... Ya do know that if you stop the fluid intake , after about 10 days the sweat WILL stop :o your next of kin will be able to verify this ! :*))
-
what about using those anti sweat stones you can get at Walmart....( ever notice how I always make a reference to Walmart.....Even though I hate the place....but its the only department store we have here in this town...Walmart sucks) but anyways..back on subject. THey have these stones you can rub under your underarms to prevent sweating....wonders if htey will work on ya head....????? just a thought
-
I'll have to give that a try, Timm. I use one of those for the pits and it works great.
-
With hair I would sweat and my hair would always be wet and unkept; with the sly look one wipe and your as good as new... But a hat suffices in between for me...
-
Everyone has put wayyyyy too much thought into this.
First of all I sweated more with hair that I do now and it looked awful!
The easy solutions....use your hand like a squeegee and wipe it to the back of your neck
or, roll the car window down and stick you head out (this also helps when your whistling or yelling at hot chicks >:D) or, swing into a gas station and grb the towels from the window washing area
Or you can us a headsweat, doo rag or hat as others have suggested but I try to keep stuff off the dome
Not sure about rubbing a stone on my head.... I could sit in a park and hum while I do it ::)
-
How about using some feminine napkins. You could just rip off the sticky strip and stick it right on your forhead. They say they absorb alot of liquid....so hey why not LOL...........
Timmmayy!!!!!!!!!!!
-
wait a minute TIMMJ Ya dont wanna glue the pad to your head cuz then the absorbent patr is AWAY fromyour head ! Ya wanna glue the pad to the inside BRIM of the hat , that way the sucky part is against your head and it comes off when you take off the hat !
-
I don't think I wanna go there.... :*))

I don't think I wanna go there.... :*))
Well looky here who has decided to join SBG's after a long hiatus. Mr. Gallagher great to see your bald mug around here, dont be such a stranger.
-
Good thinking there Porkie.....not experienced in that dep't. Glad you had your thinking cap on.....or ummm should I say your "rag". LOL
Timmayyy!!!!
-
I'm a first class sweat hog......... I usually start sweating around April 1st and stop around Halloween. :*))
Always carrying a towel around and do-rags have become an important part of my SLY wardrobe.......

All you "sweaters" need to move to the Pacific NorthWest.
We have our rainy season, but very few "sweater" days. O:O
