No Side Hair? Who Cares? Six... Seven...

After destroying the last system with Acetone (see thread), I was desperate to get the new one, that was on its way.

Went with a higher density of gray, as well as a slightly higher hair density all around.

I got super frustrated with my side hair (hair on the back of my head is nice and thick, and my original color, even). And despite my barber making me promise to grow it in (I even saw him at class, last night, and said something), I went ahead and shaved my head, again.

First thing, when I arrived at my appointment today, I got a scolding! He REALLY wanted to do a French crop with a high fade. So... erem, no fade.

yeah, fades... almost every guy has one or wants one...very trendy it seems. but tricky to blend with side bio hair. I find I need at least one inch lenght on hairpiece side and back to have hair lay correctly or blend.

NOBODY noticed, came to work with hair that was MUCH longer than the day before.

NADA!

Even the person who ALWAYS has something to say about my hair.

When asked... (I had to say something) she said... "wow, didn't notice, looks great".

So maybe it's best when no one notices...

:D

ROFL I got drunk the other night and shaved my head. The piece looks terrible on w this "fade." Hopefully, in a week, there will be enough growth that it doesn't look ridiculous.

Only guys with big beards or strong chiselled jaws can pull off OP's look.

Otherwise you'll just end up looking like Bert from Sesame Street. I'm speaking from experience.

I'm rocking the high and tight right now but I gotta slick that sh*t back tight and low to my head on top to avoid the bert look

Watch a few youtube vids, get a nice set of clippers and learn to give yourself a fade and your power will be limitless.

Well-stated.

I shaved my head like 5 days ago and it's grown back considerably. It looks good but in a week it'll be in nice and dark. Can't wait to hit up the Dominican barber shop and get all those stupid lines & designs I could never have before put in!
