new arrivals
« on: March 25, 2009, 11:07:05 PM »
Hello to all Sly Guys :)
My name's Micheal, i live in Poland, i'm 23 and i work as a graphic designer/animator.

Through most of my life i wear 1-2 cm cut but 2 years ago i noticed that my hair is thinning (it started at the top of my head). Nothing serious really back then but i started to grow some more hair to cover the baldy spot.
I felt ok with the new style to the moment i got back to 1 cm again (last year holidays). I looked at the mirror and thought "sh*t, where's my hair?!". Throughout the highschool people were telling my that i have so great hair and so much of it that i won't have any problems in the future but things got different.
I looked for some help on the web and found the SBG forums. You guys seemed so confident and supportive i thought what the heck... but didn't try it then. My hair grew back and I bit of forgot about the "problem".

The real crysis for me started 3 months ago. Everyday after washing my head, my hands were covered with hair (i'm proly exagurating right know but it never happend before). I tried to wear new hair styles to cover things up but it didnt help me a bit. Plus my friends and family noticed my loss (no support from them on this one  :-\ ).

Yeasterday morning i got back to this forum, read few topics and after an hour in the bathroom i was bald :)
The shave wasn't good, very "shadowy" and i cut myself minorly around the ears but i felt really good anyway.
Now i'm waiting for the reactions on my new look. Ones i got yeasterday were mainly disencouraging. Grandma told me i look like straight from jail and few friends said i'm scary. At least my closest friend (a girl) said it looks good and it suits me :)

I'm willing to take the 30 day sly challenge but first i have to get rid of the big red pimple i have on the right side. I have a date on the weekend and dont want to scare the girl off ;)

Big thanks to all Sly Guys - You've got a great community here. Long live the Sly.

Good luck on your date this weekend. Just be yourself and you'll rock!

Welcome, Michael.  Excellent look you have going on there!   O0 

Don't sweat the negative comments from family.  You're doing this for YOU!  Hang in there and give it the 30 day run as you already know.   

Good luck!

Well there you go; that's all you need to know about your choice.  The girl likes it.  O0  Anyone who doesn't like it will just have to deal with it.  The shaved head looks good on you.
