Exactly.
Shaving your head clean is one of the easiest ways to knock a few years off.

Not only will you look good sly, you'll enjoy the feel of it. You can shave your head with any good quality razor - do not use the cheap disposables.
Also, do not use the canned foams like Gillette Foamy. They do not provide enough lubrication for a great shave. HeadSlick is good as are other creams.
Welcome to the Sly brotherhood - you'll be glad you joined!

It will definitely suit you.
Personally, I would recommend against using a HeadBlade until you've gotten accustomed to shaving your head with a razor that you are already familiar with. You can always try the HB later to see if you like it.
Also be sure to crop your hair as closely as possible before trying to shave. For me, I find it difficult to shave hair that's gotten longer than 3 or 4 days growth. The shorter you start off with, the better.

Welcome to the forum, Gun. There are many threads where you can glean information on everyone's choice of process. You'll be glad that you came out of the darkness and into the light. Good luck.

I'm glad to hear you'll be taking the plunge as soon as tomorrow! I can't wait to see some happy snaps! As the others have said, clipper it down, if you ahve your own set, or go see a barber, then if you are at the barber, you could even get him to finish the deed with a traditional shave, or come home and finish it off yourself. But you are certainly going to love the new you

I am officially a sly bald guy now! Had some wireless clippers laying around and decided to go without the headblade today. Turned out pretty good, a few preexisting scarring from some dermitological stuff I had to use for dandruff, but only one cut. I wouldn't have done it without you guys, so I'm really grateful for all the support and advice!

Good stuff for taking the plunge Young gun. It suits you. I am a DE face and head shaver but very much pro the HeadBlade which I highly reccomend as it is easy to use once you learn how, and gives you a quick shave when you need to get going fast.
