Welcome to the club.

Had I known how much I was going to enjoy being bald; I would have started shaving it when I was 18!
It’s great being able to wake up in the morning and NOT have to deal with bed-head.

Plus it doesn’t hurt that women are constantly wanting to rub my scalp.

(Actually that can go either way.)

Do you suppose some women actually LIKE a head that looks like a penis from the back?

(Disclaimer: I despise the shaven head look and all it stands for. And it does stand for things.)

I’m just curious – what do you think it stands for? I remember when hair was a political statement, but nowadays does it mean anything except a personal fashion? (Maybe you’re thinking of white-supremacist “Skinheads”, but isn’t that pretty localized?)

If I didn’t want to please my girlfriend, I’d probably just shave my head three times a year, and never pay for a haircut again.

Pics please! The silly bf won’t let me shave my head, but I love the look on most guys.

I’m not somewhere where I can upload pictures, but they’re all over my facebook of when I had it shaved. Here’s a picture on my photobucket.

Remember: Sunscreen!

Isn’t there a superstition to the effect of ‘cover your head if you’re bald, or it’ll start raining’?

Well, now you’ve done it, fifty-six. :slight_smile:

In my brother’s case, it stood for “Airborne Ranger wanting to be bug-free in Panama.” What did you think it meant?

:rolleyes:

Not every white man with a shaved head is a neo-Nazi. Don’t be juvenile.

I shaved for about 3 months or so back in 2001 before I realized that keeping a smooth pate was as much trouble as “normal” hair maintenance had been, so I switched to trimming every couple of weeks.
