LAUGH all you want but how many of you here can actually say you regularly go to the same dressing room as the Vegas showgirls!??
Hey Anton, sorry I missed this post somehow. But here I am!
First go to the before and after pics and check my transformation pic..and look at my profile pic.
Heres the link to make it easy
http://www.slybaldguys.com/smf/index.php?action=gallery;sa=view;id=152Now, The reason you think your head is egg shaped is because of the receeding hairline and the hair you have left is making your head look bigger..... but trust everyone here who says its not. The members grow due to the honesty on this site, its kinda like a help line without a 800 number.
Look at the fact that your hair is controlling your life, its like a drug addiction in a strange way. The only way to live again is to kick the habit, learn how it feels to lift this burden.
I can tell you I stand in the wind and sometimes raise my arms like I am a airplane and feel it wrap around my body, like I use to when I was six! I walk in the rain while others frantically race past me trying to get to their vehicles, and sometimes stop and look to the sky just the feel the drops run across my slick head.
I am more free than people with hair...
It is one of the hardest decisions you will make at this time, but later you won't understand why it was so difficult!
ummmmm i stood next to a vegas show girl last year and put my hand on her bewbie, but it was quickly knocked away.......lol
Champs got the right idea......no more worryin about getting your hair wet. Yes it even feels good when you walk outside in teh winter time and you have snow flakes on your dome. Im telling ya...the first time you feel a snow flake fall on your head...its a feelign you will never forget.............kinda tingley at first....then it melts....and turns into a rain drop.
Anton, welcome to the site! Sorry, I've been away for a couple of days, but these guys have all given you some great advice!
Hi, Anton: welcome to SBG's. What the guys have said already is pretty much what i would say too. Your head looks a good shape to me, and you don't seem to be receding all that much: about as much as I was when I first went sly.
Its down to you, but I would seriously consider shaving it off and seein how you like it. Most guys here tried it and never went back to havin hair: that's one hell of a testamony to begin with.
Secondly, you say you have no confidence with the hair you've got now: you keep lookin in mirrors to see if its okay, and are worried about exposing your receding bits. If you shave it off you might still feel the same way until you get used to your new sly look, but you WILL get used to it, and you won't be constantly worrying about covering up. Your confidence will grow once you stop worrying about your hair and how it looks. You'll be looking in mirrors for a different reason then: to see how COOL and SMOOOOTH you look.

If you have no confidence with the hair you have, and you're scared of what people might think after you shave it, what have you got to lose? Nothing: except your hair. But you'll gain A LOT, trust me.
Go for it. You have a lot of support here, bro.
Best wishes, whatever you decide.
Anton...look at it this way. There may very well be a ton of people making silent remarks on your hair at this moment....and you dont even know it. Just the same with shaving it off. Those who make remarks to you will..those who dont..wont say a word. It has been 7 months for me and I just ran into one of my great aunts..she will be 82 next month and she has seen me twice since I have shaved it and I still get the question...Why did you go off and do that for ..she asks....I just looked at her and said Aunt Jean..its cause I love you. LOL...she just smiled and says...I always liked you......now i know why. LOL
Anton-I know exactly what you mean. What length is your hair at the moment?
My hair has receeded since I was 15/16, started to get thin just over a year ago, it took me 4 months or so to buzz it, then I let it grow back and realised how rubbish it looked, then I buzzed it shorter and shorter until now when its a #2 and let me tell you, the girls LOVE it.
Im not a pretty boy, I would describe myself as average but when I walk in somewhere I get looks, when I started my job I got most of the girls talking to me on my first day in the lunch room and they didnt know who the other new guy was but knew my name and now Ive got a very nice girl after me.
Ontop of this, my mates say it looks tons better than when I ever had longish hair - I cant disagree with them.
This isnt to big myself up, its to encourage you with how things have improved for me
champ007- Man, I didnt realise who you were until I saw your transformation pictures, I remember when you first posted that you were going to shave and then when you did, etc. Still looks awesome, but really didnt recognise you.

Yea, when I went to get the link I saw my previous self and shuddered. Its amazing how something so simple can make such a huge difference in your life, even your health. I feel more healthy than a year ago, and I think alot of that has to do with the freedom to just go now without thinking about my looks....
So when is the final countdown coming for you???
I feel more healthy than a year ago
You look a lot healthier and a lot better in yourself.
So when is the final countdown coming for you???
It seems to be getting closer and closer! Im sure soon I will have it down to a #1

Welcome to the SBG site anton, good to have you with us. I know it's late and I can only echo what all the other bro's have said. Get it done and freedom awaits you!
Hopefully by now you have already done the deed.
Good luck!
