Title: hairline
Post by: dadared on November 17, 2008, 08:39:05 PM
Hey,  I was wondering what you guys thought of my hairline and how bad it was.    :P

What do we think of your hair line??  Well the way I see it, its high. With only a little of the middle coming down towards your forehead.  Remedy.....shave it.  Why not?

Shave it and see if you like it (I'm betting you will). if you don't, it'll be back in a week or two. What's to lose?

I can tell form that pic that you will look good bald.  At least buzz it real short and see how you like that look.

Hey man, if you're comfortable with your style, stay with it.  But, fortunately (or unfortunately  >:D) once you post in this forum, there is no turning back - you WILL shave your head  :).  Like kim, I am picturing you with a shaved dome, and I think you will look very very good.  I also think it would look great with the beard you're sporting in the picture.
Let us know when you're inspired to do the inevitable!

You wrote, "was" does that mean it's still there or you've moved to the sly side?

You'll look great with a shaved head: you are halfway there with a hairline like that (very similar to mine before I shaved).  Give it a try O0

Welcome man.  Whatever is comfortable with you is what you should do.  If you're still on the fence about it then just stick around here for a while and see if it ends up making sense to you to shave it.  I don't think you look bad at all right now.  Yes, you do have a rising hairline but it's not bad.  I'm sure, just the same, you would look handsome with a smooth dome too.  If it's eating at you give it a try and then just grow it back if you don't like it.  Good luck.  O0

Welcome to the Forum Dadared! Tell us a little about yourself in the introduction Thread.

As for you hair........ you have the same thing I had years ago. I called it "Home Run Hair"...... you know.... Going! Going! Gone!!!!!

Seriously.......... I f you like it the way it is then keep it but sinc yo're here and asking, I'm guessing that you're on the fence. Gice the 30 day trial.

hey dadared:  1st of all welcome 2 the sly fraternity.  glad that ya joined us & glad that U R "welcoming" comments on your hairline or lack of hairline. :XX  don't get offended but here is my 2cents...  if U were my friend i would suggest that U shave your dome with a quality razor like the fusion, mach3, or headblade.  give it the 30 day trial (this is the "unwritten" rule in the SBG forum).  the 30 day trial means that the newly headshaven member will keep their new look for 30 days.  after that 30 day trial... one will officially decide 2 keep it smoooooth or grow their hair.  99% decide 2 keep it smoooooth.  anyways... keep us posted 2 your road 2 slyness.

All depends...if you want to shave your head, I think the higher hairline gives you a great excuse to go for it shaved clean...

but it looks like an average 30 something hairline..

so shave it if you want it...but you sure dont NEED it!

Thanks everyone for the comments.  That hair line belonged to a 21 year old  :*)).  But I have shaved my head before but I would just let it grow back.  Since those times, I've just kept it short as in the picture.  But after reading the comments on the hairline, i think i might have to try the 30 day trial  before i grow it back.     So after all these quick responses, I shaved and I will try the 30 day trial.  Maybe i should have a 30 day journal on here!

Hey "dadared" - I like the "after" picture, though the before is great too.


To the rest....  This is my first post in this group, the forum as a whole and first day on the website....  I didn't want to seem like a lurker.

Not only does the shaved head look better, but you exude an air of self-confidence in the sly photo that I don't see in the first one.

Anyone else notice this?

Congratulations and welcome!

Yeah: I agree: you sort of look 'apologetic' on the first pic, but so much more outgoing and confident on the second pic.  It was a good move O0
