Down to a #1 - going sly in 14 days by X The Hierophant on 06 Jul, 2007 15:55

Well ... I'm down to a #1. Going bald on Friday 7/20 (2 weeks from today).
Also ... I have noticed that I have (in addition to a few scars I didn't know I had) an odd red dot on the top of my head. wtf? I went to a #1 a few weeks ago (and even noticed it before every now and then when I had a #2, so this is permanent... No big deal really, but interesting. Anyone else have this?

Dude, I've got a little bit of everything, everywhere...never heard they were bad or anything...
I dont think you'll have a problem shaving with those there either, or so i think?
You diggin' yourself with a #1? You gonna try goin' no guard anytime in between now and the 20th?
Dude, you'll LOVE being bald, I suggest the bottom only goat once you are completely bald, just a bit longer in length than what you have now in stubble...
Good luck my soon to be bald brutha!

Ditto; just do it! Why wait? If you've decided to do it, what's with the 14 days? It's like getting a driver's license and a car, but waiting for 2 weeks to get behind the wheel. I don't get it. -

Go for it. There's no reason to wait. Why waste 14 days of your life that could be SLY ones..... -

What you have there is probably what is called a cherry angioma, if it isn't raised up, don't worry about it, if it is raised up, be careful when you shave (sly) as they bleed like CRAZY
I have a couple of them myself, two are so bad that I'm getting them cut off because I can't shave without nicking them and having a blood bath.
as far as waiting until the 20th... hmm.... I can understand, it was tough for me to get over that hump.
May I suggest that you shave down to a #000 for a few days, and get some sun on the head, that will give you some color.
after I went sly, I couldn't believe I waited this long, and didn't just do it a long time ago when I wanted..
you'll do it when your ready, and I think you will be quite happy with the results.
take care -

I have 2 of those. Frank_m gave some good advice. I went 2 months without a nick and then BOOM. Twice in one week. No big deal. Just remember they are there.
Good luck on your decision. You'll look great and love the new you.

Thanks for the encouragement guys. Baldandre is correct though. I will be out of work for 11 days, and think that will be the perfect opportunity to get used to the new style. I'll post again once I get there and let you know how it turns out.
