Haircut

Missed a bit.
That's the cowlick, nothing I could do about that. I went at that part in 4 different angles and it didn't budge.
Haircut by photomatt.
Whatcha think? Might go shorter still.

strangely, in the time it took to cut your hair, you appear to have gained some stubble!

You need to go one bladeguard shorter for the true suedehead look, which might butch you up considerably, if that were deemed desirable.

I did the same about a year ago and have gotten quite used to it. I cut my own hair now - bought my set of clippers at the local beauty supply. Now I can cut my hair every two weeks!!!!

It's ever so much easier to maintain when you go short! Tip: they now have clippers w/ built in vacuum (for catching the hair, not like "Suck-n-Cut!" :) ). Keeps things a bit more clean!

It took three tries at his head with the shaver on 9. I don't think the after pic is indicative of how good it actually looks. IRL he looks like he's in a punk band. Pretty refreshing change.

(Elissa, I tried, but I'm an accomplice and didn't put up a very good fight. Sorry!) Nice feedback overall, Matty!

You didn't shave your head. You clipped your head. If you want to shave it, go balls out and bic it once every 2 days. (been doing it since I was 17).) Do it. For real. Feels good.

It's certainly short. It makes you look more mature, less boyish. I got mine buzzed the same day -- heck, maybe even the same TIME... Check it out here: www.drewvogel.com/index.php/2006/04/14/a-hair cut-and-how/

MATT, YOU HAVE TO CALL YOUR MOTHER!!!! It had me worried when I read that you were starting the "natural" shaved look like your father, but now I see that you have a long way to go, baby. Some words of advice: don't be too anxious to lose the locks; relish the sensation of hair tickling your shoulders (hey, I'm talking about your OWN hair!); and never make fun of what nature has done to some people. PS, I've never seen such a big reaction to one of your posts! /s/ your dad.
