Number 1 is safer to go, but just do a zero guard on friday and by the time its monday it will be around a #1, so u can both have your way and please others

Nick Shell, this is no joke, but I greatly admire the fact that you are willing to try and experiment with a different type of look. Your choices have all been most interesting and I bet you had some fun with the experimentation. You come across as warm, kind, congenial, and most articulate. A solid Family Man of which there are few and far between. Last year, you inspired me to shave my head totally bald. I grew back my hair but someday I just might for the BALD again! Thanks!

I'm 30 & experiencing quite rapid thinning on top, so I've decided to go with this look. Thank you for this video, it helps :)

You look FLAWLESS with any buzz cut, dude. I'm not kidding. You have completely convinced me that my worries about hair loss were totally exaggerated. I had a buzz cut with a number 2 guard earlier today and I haven't been this happy in YEARS!!!!!!

Hi Nick, Thanks for your perspective, overall concerning having a little bit of stubble with a zero guard buzz cut! I've been shaving my head zero for 15 years, and I love it!

Well i am 18 and buzzing my head but people are looking weird at me :D they think im depressed or something man, while i just have the balls to do something most people - want - but can't do

Nick, I think the zero/bald headed look was most interesting. Above, your look has a certain freshness and purity to it. You do have very handsome facial features with enormous brown eyes and with this look ------ we can concentrate on your manly beauty.

Great haircut bro, you wear it very well. I’m thinking of going with this cut.

Trying to decide between #1 (again) and going for a zero. Helpful vid. Peace!

Great video, thanks a bunch.

I'm all about the zero guard with stubble. I don't like being clean shaven at all, which is why I don't shave my head. While I was balding I just buzzed down to a three or four and gradually went lower so there wasn't a big drastic difference. Once I went for the zero guard I thought "why didn't I just go for this from day one?"

Im 44 with thinning hair on top. I've been doing 5 on top and 1.5 on sides. Last week I just did a one all over and I loved it with very heavy stubble . Then I took the heavy stubble down to a zero and I looked too washed out. Just like you explained. You do need a weeks or 2 of stubble to pull it off. Totally agree. Not tried the zero yet! Just getting used to the 1 . Thanks man

Wow. Cool.

What clippers do you use for the zero guard?

This is so true I started shaving zero before and was clean shaven I look so weird. Now I decided to grow facial hair and do zero looks so much better. I prefer zero to one as well.

So zero guard won’t burn your scalp? I just replaced an old pair that had a very short #1 and loved it but it died. The new one has a number one guard that doesn’t shave as close and I might take it back. Thanks buddy. Subbed & liked. ✌🏽

I think the best thing about 0 guard for me would be being able to see if what my dermatologist prescribed me which was a topical solution (Clobetasol) and Nizoral shampoo for my hair loss works. Right now I can't tell if it working or not. I have possible high tsh getting tested again to make sure. So yea I've gone zero guard before during quarantine and it looked okay i like it compared to 1

The only advantage of my hair being very short is that it's easy to apply foam minoxidil. But if I had a full head of hair, I wouldn't need to use minoxidil.

What about zero guard vs Razer? What's your thoughts?

I have the exact same hair line as you..the 0 gaurd is way better then 1 or 2 guard..and I agrwe that stubble or beard is a must. It doesn't look good with a clean shave. But I really rather have stubble even when I grow my hair out

Thanks! This is the first vid I have watched about a zero guard, trying to decide if I should stick with the number one but I think you convinced me. As a lady with no stubble who is not concerned about the perception of others, what really stuck out to me was that it'll feel less fuzzy and show the hairline less frequently. I'm really into not doing my hair more freq than I have to so I appreciate you including those aspects. It's kind of an obvious thing, that cutting it shorter would do that, but hearing it from you helps counter the negatives of a zero guard that I've heard from others.

Cool video dude! I’m 29 and it looks like my crown is thinning. Unfortunately, I can’t grow facial hair very well, only goat tee (kinda). I’ve never grown my facial hair out bra or I can’t get past the “awkward” stage. If I could grow a beard if definitely rock a bald head. I don’t know what to do 🤦‍♂️

I’m 25 and thinning on the crown and in the front now. I usually trim the top with scissors and bald fade on the side. But it looks like I have a donut on my head with the faded side and balding spot in back. Thinking of going with zero guard buzz cut. And get the look going young, that way 20 years from now I look the exact same and look like I aged better lol.

Finnish it off with a babyliss foil shaver 👍

🧐 With the zero guard option, is one being more exposed to the lubricating oil of the machine as its blades run over the skin of the scalp?

From personal experience, definitely need stubble to bring people's eyesight down so they look you in the eyes and not stare at your bald head first ...

I am bald and have no facial hair, I am not an alpha male either. I am busted so I gave up. Let me know if there is anything left to try.

I’m 15 and I got a buzz cut

Is it harder to cut with number one if you have a bit longer hair? My old one I use zero bacause it is much moore easy to cut without any guard. The tip about the beard I think is a good one, I do not have that tick beard, but when it is short short it is ok I think. I do have your color of skin and eye browns so I like your tips. Havent tought about it but notised that it looks nice when it is a balance to it, thanks.

When I get to a 1 or 2 I actually notice the receding or less density in the hair. That's y you like the zero or st least that's why I like zero in my case. I'm 39 and I just started taking propecia to see if it will make it look better but I still think I prefer shaving my head.

I keep myself clean shaven with my zero guard buzz cut and can't stand itchiness of stubble or facial hair period lol. All pros only con, it's a pain in the ass to clean the back head lol. IMO, that "edge" your looking for works for some men, not all culturally speaking.

But I have seen amazing results for people on them for 1 year. Viviscal is a vitamin that works for thicker hair. I was on viviscal before the drugs and it worked good for keeping what you have and better coverage
