A wise decision
Enjoy the freedom! (And I love your wife's reaction for giving you one of her razors, it MUST mean you look sly!)

May I ask where you had your hairpiece from? I am right where you were and am working up my self to do the deed next week and use TG break to get some breakin time.
One big worry I have is how to get out of HCM without a large expense. Were you able to get out of a membership too? -

I wasn't an HCB member and don't know how that scenario works. I used an independant guy in Dallas, he'd cut off a snip of my hair and send it off to be matched up. Took about a month for it to come back. Cost me a thousand bucks 25 years ago. Then a new one every few years. I was an old hold out, with the double stick tape. Some years ago he went to the more permanent method, where it stayed on the head and you went in every few weeks. But I never did that, thought it was expensive and already a pain in the ass as it was.
To tell you the truth, in my opinion, in the early years I fooled people that didn't know me. It was human hair and matched up perfectly to my own. I never would have done it in the first place if I would have had a more "normal" balding pattern. I had a big thick patch of hair at my forehead hairline. I used to use it as sort of a marker spot on how to place my peice.
I'd been thinking about shaving for years, but was too chicken. Found this site, got inspired, and did it.
My only regret is that I didn't shave when we went to the beach this summer, so my head would tan up.
I'm growing a beard, giving thought to a face hair scenario. Eventually I'll post a picture. -

I never wore a hair piece, just lots of ball caps! I did this for years and hated going anywhere that would require me to remove my cap. July 3rd of this year was my Independance Day! While on vacation, and without telling anyone, not my best friend or even my wife, I grabbed a fresh razor (I was already buzzing my hair at about at triple O, I jumped in the shower and done the deed! It was one of the best things I ever did for myself and I still love it. I didn't tell anyone before-hand because I didn't want to hear any negative comments.
Do not risk tanning beds! I wouldxalso encourage you to stay away from any of the instant/sunless tanning products until you have more time to experiment before your big event. Regardless of the excellent results some people have with certain products, other people will not have good results - they may turn orange or be splotchy. If you must, go get a spray tan at a reputable salon. Those tans will last from 1-2 weeks.
Congratulations on becoming a member of the best brotherhood in all of the www.! -
