Cool !!
How do you like it? Does it feel good?
I also recommend the Fusion for the first time. Good result, less irritation. At least it should be some HQ-Razor.
A hot shower maybe before to soften up the stubble or some preshave stuff. A quality shave gel to lock in moisture and a some non alcoholic aftershave.
First with the grain. If you wanna have it real smooth then against the grain (cool to do so !!!) Maybe use your other hand to follow the razor to feel if it got all and left the area smooth.
I wouldn't overdo it for the first time (like going over it several times). The skin is sensitive first time. You might wanna use some cold water to rinse off for less irritation and less shaving pimple. Works for me. Let me tell you, the skin will feel numb after your very first shave. That's part of shaving first time.
(BTW the room looks cool with that dark walls and the guitar hanging there)
Yea i know the numb feeling i have shaved it before but it really wasn't done right to be honest. And what about several passes over the area the first time? or should i just keep it down to like 1-2 passes to keep from getting irritation because when i shave my face i get irritated really easily idk what im doing wrong tho. -

You've done it before, cool.
Well i got a bit obsessed and wanted it a smooth a possible and worked the sides of my head to often (more then 2 or 3 times
), everything turned red for a day or 2 in that area, was not to bad. But other than that, no shaving pimples or so. Since I've done it like i described it before it works fine for me. Just use a real good razor. Make sure to re-apply shave prep before going over again. I get more easily irritated in the face as well. I heard that a lot from other shavers. Oviously the face gets more easily irritated.

Good haircut, man! The short buzz really suits you well, but I think that a smooth head would be much better for you.
Go for it, mate. -

Looks great. You will like it once you go all the way. Baby butt smooth is the best.

You look younger and more your age already with the short buzz! And it looks good.
Good idea to definitely shave before going to college. Fresh start. Just make sure you own the look! Like the others have said, mother nature isn't giving you a choice but head shaving is popular today and a much better option than hair transplant, wigs, or drugs to try to save what you have. You'll be much better off and thankful you didn't go down those routes when you get older.
Keep us posted. -

The question is, if your hair is really that bad, why are you even keeping it around? You'll look good, trust me, just very different.
