Title: Great article on About.com
Post by: Tyler on February 21, 2007, 02:08:53 AM
This article is awesome!  Though, there's nothing in it that we haven't already said here, but it's so great to see articles like this on top sites such as About.com (http://www.about.com).  The article is titled "Some Thoughts on Balding and Hair Loss" and is written by Daniel Billett.  Here's a link to the article: http://mensfashion.about.com/od/goominghair/a/BaldingThoughts.htm (http://mensfashion.about.com/od/goominghair/a/BaldingThoughts.htm)

Oh, I forgot to mention that he just happens to link to Sly Bald Guys also!!   O0

Not bad, definitely liked the link. Glad he got in a line for those who are BBC though personally didn't like linking it to being in style.  Some of us do it because it is who we are!

Yeah, what Paul said. I do this because I like it. As a hardcore hillbilly, style is the furthest thing from my mind.  :D :D :*)) :*)) O0 O0

Not to get too deep here PigPen, but the absence of style is a style all its own!
See, you're a trend setter.  O0

Whats Headblade say....its not a hairstyle its a life style.

I always tell people its about function not fashion...but recently I am finding out that its the way I am perceived by my friends and people.  I have heard more than once that they can't imagine me with hair.  It wouldn't be "you"....whatever that means.

It is amazing how many more people are shaving it though.  And I don't think it really matters if you just started or have been doing it for a while (like me).   

Hey Pig Pen, stop being a conformist with your non-conformity!  ha ha.
On second thought...just keep rocking it!

LOL thanks MC......"Just be a unique individual", at least that's what they told us in HS. Then we would mutter, "Yeah just like everyone else"

I also believe that it doesn't matter what others think or say, I do it for me. If ya don't like it, kiss my rebel @$$

Nice mention.  This site is really starting to gain some good exposure. Congrats Tyler!

This author seems pretty cool, unlike that MSN lady. That's right, I didn't use "lay-day" becuse she wasn't worth it.

MSN lady? I think this must be a reference to something prior to Sly Socctty. Update: Nevermind, I see the Feng Shui article.

I do this because I like the style.  I just did not look right with hair... I look better with the lack of it.  It is so much better to be chill with it than to fight it.  I have a buddy who is balding, and I try to get him just to go all the way and shave it... He's got cold feet, he apprehensive because of the stigma that this cut has had in previous years.  If your going Bald, just Bik it.  Why look older when you don't have to, why not look bolder, stronger, more independent? Last I checked, MR. CLEAN has got it over the Brawnie dude, and the original XXX bags hotter tail than 007!  b@n*

Yo, to all those who are BALD BOLD LOUD AND PROUD,  Hang Em High! !*!rat3

Great post Mr. Clean!!

The reason that I liked this article is that it's a main stream site that is telling others to forget about the hair transplants and drugs and just chrome the dome.
