Hey guys, about to make the change

Hey guys,
Slyfive, otherwise known as Matt here, I've always been a long haired guy (at one point, mid chest length), but lately, especially since a series of surgeries on my leg, I have started losing my hair. It's been receding for quite a while but is really starting to thin out now, so, once I grow my beard back (shaved it for Movember), I'm going sly!
In other news, I'm 22, a guitar teacher and multi-instrumental performer, with a Bmus in composition. I'm obsessed with tattoos and have a sleeve, half my back and my other wrist done, starting my second sleeve in Feb!
So stoked to find this site, I have been really down on confidence for a while, and on your advice, have started shaving down through the numbers (number one in my photo), and now I think it's time to go. Thanks for being a place to go, glad to be here.

Thanks so much for the welcome, I've been finding it really hard to deal with the loss of confidence associated with hair loss, I've become a bit of a shy guy lately.... BRAINWAVE!
just though of it on the fly: don't be a shy guy, man up and be a sly guy.
But anyway, reading about you guys and how liberated it has made you feel has really started to put me at ease, I'm still apprehensive, but now with your help, I'm also really excited.
