You are really getting into the sly quickly and buying all the stuff to go with it. Quite the professional sly. And your latest profile pic shows just how much you're enjoying the new look. Keep it up.

And the shiney look, too. I'm sticking to matte at the moment, but you could change my mind !

Day 23 for me...

You should try the shiny look at least for a while. To be safe, stick out your first 30 days with the same routine you've been doing, then make any changes later on.  O0

Wise words. Thanks for your advice.

Sticking with HeadBlade matte moisturiser for the time being. Then try the HB 'gloss' finish in the next month or so.

Can't wait for my 30th daily shave. Mission accomplished.

Great post! Keep it up my fellow college sly! And it's true! You definitely stand out on a campus when you rock that clean look.

I WISH I would have shaved my head when I was in college!

Both Jules and Matt have commanding profile photos!  For newly bald guys, you look like pros.

So do I.  It was still relatively uncommon when I was in college and I still had most of my hair in those days, though the recession at the hairline had already started, so there was no real "need" to do it. But looking back, it would have been better to have gotten the entire hair loss issue resolved at a much younger age while still in a safe zone.  It would have saved me about 15 years of agonizing over a thinning mane.  Today's college generation is fortunate -- being completely bald at 22 is not a problem at all.    :)

So it's not just me who loves being out and about, and carrying that striking look ?

In the last few weeks, noticed people I've only briefly met before saying hello to me. There's only one way they could have remember me. You don't forget the bald look, do you ?

PS ... this morning, discovered London's only Headblade stockist - Carter and Bond. Just 20 mins bike ride from my home. So took the plunge and got some Headblade Gloss moisturiser for that shinier look.

Hey Jules and Twentytwo,

Headblade lube is an awesome product.  I used the matte at first and it did a great job.  For about a year now I've been using the glossy and I love the look.  Keep the domes shiny!

Congrats on your anniversaries.

Headblade lube is an awesome product.  

Totally agree with you. I really like the gloss HB lube now for that shiny look. Despite what they say, there is a slightly greasy feel after you apply it - so I tend not rub my head afterwards ! Now that I have both the matte and gloss HB lubes, it's good to have options.

Day 27 for me - only 3 days to go. Now that I'm nearly a month into the sly look, it's good to have the same bald appearance every day. If I had let my hair grow, by now it would have been a grey threadbare mess.

Thanks to everyone for the encouraging words.  :)
