It's interesting how poeple started wearing more polos and button shirts since shaving. Since shaving I dress more in jeans and t's and boots. It could be the tough guy look to enhance the shaved head. But my buddies tell me my inner redneck is coming out. LOL.

I guess that I am a "dark" character. My wardrobe hasn't changed a bit since shaving my head. And it has only changed slightly in the past year. My daily wardrobe consisted of two things, Levi's 505 jeans, and black Fruit of the Loom pocket t's. In the past year I went and bought cheapo black docker style pants. They are much more comfortable than jeans to me. So no matter what day it is, I am always in a black t-shirt, and black dockers. Does this mean that I have desicion issues?

same here, I have a green T, every thing else is black or gray. I don't think color looks good on me, but I'll do DK greens.

Must agree with Sooner Steve: going sly definitely created an up-tick in the wardrobe and a raised consciousness regarding overall appearance. Apart from standard academic/professional garb, I had become fairly scruffy. The bald dome made me think about colors, lines, and the whole idea of appearance. Embraced some of the tough guy stuff (steel jewelry, leather, dark colors) but also upgraded my shirts and trousers. Noner provided some good advice and images (still have not tried silk suits and pink ties). And, yes, changed the glasses from gold rims to no rims. Baldness also improved my regimen by nesessitating daily showering, exercising, and shaving. It caused me to buy the first decent razor and gel I had ever used. Until going sly, I had used ordinary soap and a disposable Bic. Started with Mach III, then graduated to Fusion and gel. I became aware of a whole line of skin treatments and, of course, Head Lube. The result has delighted my wife, made it easy for her and for my daughter to find Christmas, etc., presents, and raised my self-esteem. Any man going bald should embrace it, or at least give it a chance; in my experience, it increases integrity, assertiveness, and lifestyle. Professor Melon

I would think English lit.
I wish I could get my thoughts across with as much eloquence.

I'm pretty sure the Professor has said in the past that he teaches English and theology.

Schro, aaaaaayyyyyy , that wuz a good one! I did leave you a hell of an opening tho, lol.

On another topic, I see you are keeping the dome at a #1 buzz, what gives? Are you caving to pressure? Or did you get the orders from the boss??

For peace in the House of Schro, I've compromised with the boss (wife). She HATED the sly look on me. She used to buzz my hair with a #2 setting, but I wanted it shorter. When I found relief from the bad scalp condition I've had my entire adult life as a result of going sly, I thought she'd accept the look. But, she just can't get behind it. So, we made a compromise to a #1 buzz setting, and I keep it short at all times.
So far, I can feel a tiny bit of the itch I had previously experienced, but not nearly to the extreme I was feeling previously. I'm trying some topical treatments to keep it under control. However, I experience the most pain/discomfort in the fall & winter when the air is a bit drier. If the itch returns to an unbearable level (like it has every year prior to going sly), I will shave it again.
I have mixed emotions on whether or not I want to shave it off again for a couple of reasons....1) I actually like the look with the #1 buzz cut a bit more (got a big fat head and I look like a globe when shaved) and 2) Like pburke said, "If momma ain't happy, than no one is happy".
