Title: What Did Your Hair Look Like When You Tired Of It?
Post by: Riverrstone on November 14, 2008, 11:56:32 PM: This was last time I ever let my hair grow long. Back then, I had a fear of hair loss.You can see the hairline was receding. I don't know how others feel, but I'm much happier shaving it all off like you see in second picture.

Post by: SLYinKC on November 15, 2008, 03:51:04 PM: Mine was very thin and I just kept buzzing it down shorter and shorter until SLY was the option for me!!

Post by: Papa Don on November 17, 2008, 08:29:57 AM: I have a full head of hair. It's thinning a bit right on top. However, picture Gene Wilder only worse. Course, wavy and very unruly. I fought it for over sixty years. Can't think of a product or style I didn't try. My goal-just to get two hair to lay down together. Never had any luck. Well--hello! Shaving is the only way to go. Doubt if I ever have one strand of hair on this noggin again!!

Post by: PowerOfCheese on November 17, 2008, 08:39:32 AM: Shaved this August! What did it look like??? Whatever wasn't turning gray was falling out.

What I disliked the most was playing a round of golf and then removing the hat on 18 to shake hands. Oh man it looked bad. I'd take the hat off, reach out my hand to the person staring at my head. Always left me feeling weird.

Post by: PE#1 on November 17, 2008, 12:06:14 PM: Here's a pic of what the top front of my hair was doing before I shaved all the way. I can't find a pic of the top crown part but I get a pretty thin "goose egg" up there. This is about a month grown out. Not too bad but you can see the thinness.

Before going SLY

Looks like you had that "island" thing going on there. I'm no stranger to that myself. You look much better scraped clean.

Hah Marty! Missed this. Quite honestly, it does seem like a fair trade. I'd take a good golf game over hair any day. Plus I have the advantage of distracting opponents with my head glare. Just gotta know where to stand. The sun can be behind them yet they look at me and have to squint. It's a beautiful thing. O0

Post by: Itsonlyinmyhead on December 25, 2008, 08:37:31 AM: My hair was thinning all over and receeded. to be honest it wasnt that bad but was as bad as I would let it go. I was only 23 at the time and now Im 25 and have a #1 all the time.

Since I started my current job one of my work colleagues has seen my facebook photos and said that I look younger now than I did a couple of years ago O0
