Hello everyone,
I've been considering going sly because I've been losing my hair for a few years. No horseshoe yet, but I did have a big, glaring bald spot at the back of my head. It also started thinning on top, which was visible on some spots. I've been asked if I'm in my thirties; in fact, I'll be 26 at the end of this month.
I started visiting this site recently and thanks to you guys, I made up my mind and buzzed my noggin with no guard.
Here are the pics:
BEFORE and AFTER

Looks good, you will be smiling even bigger when you take the razor to it and make it slick.

Very good decision: Nice looking head.
Next step, take the blades and shave it smooth. You will love the feeling!
Best wishes.

Chris, welcome to the best bald forum on the Internet!
You're looking good!
...and you're going to LOVE the next step
For me, the sly look took about 10 years off me, if I believe what people are telling me!

Chris,
You look outstanding. I agree with the guys shave it and you will never go back.

you definately look good without. I think I'm getting biased, because when I see someone with hair, I imagine them without and they usually look better. Shave it, it's cool.

hey chris: welcome 2 the sly fraternity. glad that ya joined us. do some research on the "head shaving" section of the forum: "your shave routine", "what razor you use", "shaving cream or gel". this section has some priceless info on head shaving.
so... how do U like your new look? what type of reactions/comments have U been receiving? will U consider a "razor" head shave? U gotta try it atleast once.

Thanks for the comments fellas!
I'm probably gonna take the razor out tomorrow and just get it done. So far I like the look, but I'm sure it'll look better once I get some color on the scalp because right now it's really pale.
As for comments from others, they've been pretty neutral. I've got a few "skinhead" comments but they were joking. Since I've never been bald before, it'll take some time for people to get used to it.
