Go Down

I echo the others. You made an excellent choice and it looks great. Before long, the nervousness will go away. It's been almost two years since I went sly and I still love it! Keep it slick man! No worries.

1. Your new look is very nice. Enjoy it.

2. TWO WEEKS until you return to work .... if you don't shave during 2 weeks you'll have a lot of hair on your head! I grow about 1/4 inch per week, so in 2 weeks, you'd have 1/2 inch, that's a #4 buzz cut. So you do have an option.

3. I'd encourage you to apply the 30 day rule. Stick with a shaved head for a month. It gives you and all a chance to get used to the new look. The first day is too soon to make a decision whether you like it or not.

When I went to work after shaving my head I got comments about my bow tie, not about my bald head.

Keep us posted on how it goes. You rock the sly look.

I was so nervous going to work for the first time with a shaved head, I almost broke out in cold sweats. To my great surprise, there was little or no reaction from anyone and the few comments that were made were all positive. I'm sure it will be the same for you. You look terrific. All the nervousness will disappear within minutes after you arrive at work, so don't stress over it.

yep you did it, looks good. others have to comment but all will accept you and most will admire your courage to do it.

You look very nice. I am not someone that would say so if you didn't I would just not comment. Without the hair people will notice your eyes and other features which all are good.

It looks great on you! In the beginning we all had doubts. About 2 weeks in I started thinking I had made a huge mistake, but after 30 days I felt more confident, so hang in there.

Looks great, there nothing better then being bald. Congratulations. Don't be surprised at the attention and respect your going to get from now on, it comes with the territory. I'm sure your coworkers are going to love it and make some might follow your lead.

I had regrets myself when i first started shaving, and started to let it grow back, but after about a week, i realized by looking at pics of myself before and after that i actually looked better sly, so off my hair went again. I think after some time you will come to the same conclusion, so dont make the mistake i did and stsrt letting it grow back, youll just end up having to go thru the hassle of clippering it again.

Oh Man! I feel like puking also - because you look so much better than I do!!!

What are you talking about? With the scraps gone off of your head people's attention is drawn directly to your eyes - and what eyes you have.

I agree with the others the little bit of beard just detracts. If I were you I would either shave it off completely or I would go for a mustache and goatee.

good lord Dude - you are HOT! You have to be feeling great about this decision!

Congrats on taking the plunge. Everyone before me has said it, you look great sly. Also like everyone else said the adjustment for you and your daily circle of friends and family will be quick. You'd be surprised how fast people forget what you looked like with hair. I get that all the time. Hang in there for 30 days and it's highly unlikely you'll ever decide to grow your hair back.

As the gentlemen before me have stated, you have nothing about which to feel nervous.

Congratulations on taking control, sir.
