well last night was the first night i went out in my old town without the usual hat. and by complete suprise, the only comment i got was from a friend who said, man i wish i had the balls to do that. it felt good to hear that, and i didnt even realize anything was diffrent. I acted like myself, and everyone treated me the same, it felt really good, and its kind of relieving. Granted i eased the process by drinking as much as i could, but there were no awkward moments, which i thought there would have been. this forum definetly helped me get out of my shell, and now ,maybe i can actually enjoy being young and have some fun. thanks guys for the extra confidence....

Way to go Gino.....what a great response to the first time hatless.

"I wished I had the balls to shave my head..."; You wouldnt believe how many have said that to me over the decades.

OK Gino! I'm glad it went so well for you. That's the greatest thinbg about this Forum... you can bet that some of the other SLY brothers on here have had the same thoughts or experiences before you. What a great resource.
Kudos to Tyler for having the vision to start the whole dang thing!

Another gone-sly success story. Way to go Gino - enjoy your freedom.

Gino, that's awesome to hear!!

As Gino has attested to, the reactions u get from people when you are out can be pretty spectacular.

Like I mentioned in another thread, the look is only half of the picture... how it makes you feel is the other half or maybe it's more like 75% how you feel? :*)) I know that the confidence growing in you Gino will certainly add to your appearance! O0

Forget about the hat, but don't forget about sunscreen.
Gino, we were all a bit apprehensive at first. After the first week it's "smooth" sailing.

Ya see, it was not as big a deal as you thought it would be.
