I like being bald. but I dont like having to shave...at all
I absolutely love the look and feel. Almost 53 years of age now (started shaving my head when I was just creeping up on.... I'd say around 51). Wish I would have done it a lot sooner!! First decided to give the sly look a try because of the unbearable N'Awlins heat here in the summertime.Discussed going totally sly with the wife and kids beforehand- they weren't too crazy about it. Took my son to get HIS haircut one day and while he was getting his done, I grabbed the next chair and told the staff to "start shaving and don't stop until you see skull fragments!" Upon returning home and sticking my head through the door and saying "Boo!", I don't think I've heard so many "OMG's" come out of my wife's mouth in one sentence in all the 17 years we've been hitched!! Her "wife instinct" immediately kicked in and she initially she said she wouldn't speak to me until it grew back! Right then and there, I began to grow very, very fond of my new look!! (Hee...Hee...Hee...) But today-she wouldn't have me any other way but S-L-Y!!Been sly ever since. Twice a day- EVERY DAY!! (once in the am; then again at night- that's the only way I can keep it super-smooth and the stubble down to a (ahem - pardon the pun) "bare" minimum!!Yep- when I see someone up in age (70+) who is totally sly - with NO trace of shadow or stubble, I can't help but have big admiration for their slyness and their ability to NOT have to shave every day, but still manage to have that "just shaved" look about them!.It's great to be sly, guys - it is this century's "long-haired look" of the 60's-70's revisited in the opposite direction!! -LOL- Cap'n Noodles - So to those of you who may be"sly-newbies", or even "seasoned sly-veterans", who still may be concerned (or bothered by) what others may be actually looking at when (or if) you find them suddenly staring at you, here's some good friendly "SLY" advice to follow that I'm sure others here will agree with......Let'em stare and relish in the moment! It's a very good chance they're staring out of sheer ENVY anyway!!'Nuff said!!

I hate shaving, but I hate having the velcro feel even more.
People tend to hide behind their hair, and to define themselves by it. Getting rid of it all is not only liberating, it helps you to become more comfortable with who you are and lets you focus on other things. It teaches you that there is more to you -- and everyone else -- than your haircut.
