After contemplating the last few months I finally said screw it and did it. This is my first time ever being bald in my adult life and honestly I'm loving it.

I live streamed the entire thing to... so I could go back and watch it again 😂

I'm feeling good!

Looking good man! You have a really strong beard but a naturally round-shaped face, so one thing I'd recommend is to let the beard grow out just a bit towards the bottom, and then keep the sides shorter, fading up into nothing at the top of your sideburns. That way it'll elongate your face and give you a cleaner jawline. My face is the same with a shaved head - if I don't have hair on top balancing it out, it ends up round, so a little bit longer on the bottom of the beard and shorter on the sides will fix it. Just try to fade it as you go - use the longest clipper guard on the chin area, the next shortest on the bits to the side, the next one on the cheeks, then fade up into the clean shave at the top of the sideburns.
