Post by: Northernlion on July 14, 2008, 07:58:32 PM: My friend has the pics so they should be up shortly. I made sure to get one where I looked like George Costanza with just the top shaved!

Anyway I'm sure the slyness will be a hit at the old folks home where I work

Old men are usually thrilled to death to see a young bald guy -- either because they are bald themselves and are happy to see it happen to someone else, or because they still have their hair and feel superior because of it.

You got a winner there. Sly is a GREAT look on you, with and without facial hair. But I am kind of partial towards facial hair. The close full beard and the sly noggin really looks good on you!

Post by: Northernlion on July 15, 2008, 03:30:20 PM: Hello again guys

I agree with most of you and am gonna grow the beard back no doubt.

Reactions today were almost universally positive. Interestingly the younger girls seemed to love it while the old ladies were the ones asking me why I would do such a thing to my head!

Still have to reveal to my girlfriend and my parents but I'm not concerned. My gf started giving me sh*t last night because it was kind of a spontaneous decision and I just came out and told her, so I asked her what she'd do if she didn't like it and she said "Learn to". Good answer I guess, since I'm not growing it back at least for a while.
Title: Re: A Youngin
Post by: BALDANDRE on July 15, 2008, 03:33:59 PM: Wow, like Red said,you went the full monty "Mr. Clean" shave..looks good bro!

Nice that you just went for it!

I'd def. keep the head shaved smooth...but both the clean shaven face and beard work for ya! O0

Post by: Mikekoz13 on July 15, 2008, 03:35:09 PM: Ryan......... MUCH better without that thinning hair! You rock the look Dude!
