Another Success Story
« on: August 08, 2012, 06:02:42 AM »
So I have been contemplating being bald for a very very long time. I have been a member of this forum for a while, albeit a quite one, but I have read a hell of a lot of posts during that time...

This past Sunday afternoon it all clicked and now I am a proud member of the sly brotherhood... And I LOVE IT!  I'm 41, in pretty good shape and I work in the public...  For those of you who are on the fence like I was, it is an amazing feeling of freedom once you do it... And with the exception of one of two people I have had nothing but positive reactions...

I'd like to thank you all for the great posts and conversations and look forward to a) posting a pic and b) becoming more active in this great community...

Welcome out of the shadows GettinThere.

It is really a liberating experience isn't it?

Thanks for posting, and please continue to share your experiences - particularly those "in public" as that seems to be the biggest obstacle for guys who want to go Sly. You found, as have so many of us, that it's really not an issue.

Well done. Looking forward to the photo.

Thank you very much!

It really does feel great!  I have a tremendous partner who is very supportive and that was the difference for me...

Welcome to your freedom from hair!  I think it's time to change your name from GettingThere to GotThere.

Welcome to the forum. This is so very true, and I try to stress this to the lurkers and newbies as well.
Glad to hear you made the decision and went with it.
I also agree with Tyler, it's time for a name change.    ;)
