Been clean shaved for 6 months

[Offwithit]

Hey guys,

New here on the forums, have been reading a few post here and there but thought i would finally make a post myself

I have finally decided to shave all my hair off and its been awesome, it feels good and i love it, so easy to maintain lol .

It's been 6 months now since i took the plunge and the only downfall im having is family and friends saying how bad it looks on me, when i personally don't mind it to much.

If friends and family think it looks bad, what will strangers who don't know me think? pic uploaded.

Strangers won't think anything as this is how they know you

Family and friends aren't use to the change - so long as you like it , and you' look fine , it doesn't matter

Dude, if you're happy that's all that matters. Screw what anyone else thinks.

your friends and family sound like assholes. find new ones. haha... who would say something like that? you look good man, very youthful. be happy and live your life.

It looks good and it looks clean and the girls will love it. And I think it will also look good in some years when you will shave it completely clean. Maybe try a bit of facial hair too.
Friends and family are saying that it does not look good because they are used to see you with longuer hair. People don't like change. It shows the family that the time has passed and that you are not a little boy anymore. For them it is kind of sad. And friends are afraid to not look as good when it will be their turn to do it. If they even dare.

I did the same thing with the same result!
The truth is...they don't the feeling of seeing your reflection and thinking "jesus...look at my hair!"
Have you tried a complete shave? I am often curiuos as to which is better the "no guard" buzz like you have or the fully shaved head.

Hey, You look good. Don't be offended on your friends and family. You see, people hardly get used to any changes, they just need some time to take you as you are.

what looks bad about it?

grow some facial scruff.. clean shaven faces are the least attractive to females.. and 10-14 days growth is the most attractive..

have you considered just shaving it? I think it would look good on you.
