Finally shaved it off
« on: July 05, 2008, 12:06:19 AM »
I have been lurking on this site for close to a year trying to get the guts to finally shave my balding head.  I have been getting haircuts with no guard for two years now.  So tonight I finally shaved it off and I am now wondering why I waited so long.  The Great Clips in Kentucky will have one less customer now.

As a fellow Kentuckian (transplanted) and newly slick-headed man, I bid you welcome to this crazy place called Sly Bald Guys. Seriously though, welcome. I'm REALLY glad you're happy with your new 'do. Tell us a bit more about yourself so we can get to know you a bit. And yes, we would like a pic.

Scott, I live in Louisville, too. It's a pretty small world.

Congratulations are in order. You will enjoy the feel and freedom
Our country demands all our strength, all our energies. To resist the powerful combination now forming against us will require every man at his place. If victorious we will have everything to hope for in the future. If defeated, nothing will be left for us to live for.

Thanks for the welcome.  I live in Florence KY and I grew up on the Indiana side of Louisville.  Over the past ten years I have went from having hair halfway down my back to having almost none on the top of my head.  I kept putting off shaving it because I was afraid I'd knick it up to bad.  I only have one small wound from the shave job.  Now I just hope I can get a little color on the noggin before I have to return to work Monday.

Hey robo, welcome to the SBG site, glad you decided to join us.

Nice to hear you are loving the smooth dome, and you're enjoying your new found freedom.
You have also joined the ranks of us who have asked the same question: "why didn't I do this sooner?"   ;)

Anyway, enjoy the smooth, shiny noggin'!     O0
