I have a flattish spot on my head, just to the right of the middle line. It slopes downward diagonally for a while instead of being properly dome-shaped. So… no.
I have an old scar along the side of my head that took 18 stitches to close. Back when I was a teenager someone dared me to drink 3 shots of Tequila in less than a minute. I won? :wally
I wouldn’t look good bald anyway, my ears stick out.
I suffered several blows to the top and back of head as a child. What??? :eek: Shaving my head or losing the mane would result in, shall we say, an appalling display of scar tissue.
ER Doc at Chestnut Hill Hospital in Philly: Don’t worry, this stitching won’t hurt any more than a bee sting.
Me, age about 5: A WHAT???/ --copious screaming and writhing ensues–
So that wild story your father posted about having to deliver you at a picnic with a pair of barbecue tongs is true? :eek:
Good lord, no. I have a gigantic crevace on the right side of my skull that, were I bald, one could fill with water to make a perfectly acceptable bird-feeder.
I’ve used the “no, seriously, feel my massively deformed head” routine as an icebreaker on countless occasions, and the number of people who recoil in sheer horror has got to be at least 50%.
This is what happens when you have to be suctioned out of the womb at birth with a giant Acme vacuum-cleaner, apparently.
I forgot to say before that I think “kojackulated” is my new favorite word.
And to stay somewhat on the topic, I have a friend who lost most of his hair in his early 30s. Now he’s 40 and keeps what hair he still has very closely cropped. He has a huge scar right across the top of his head, a souvenir from a car accident in his teens. Surprisingly, the scar actually adds to the already-significant appeal of his melon.
So if you’re scarred, don’t be scared! You too might look awesome “kojackulated.”
The back of my skull, like most Chinese skulls, is very flat though a combination of genetics and back-sleeping throughout my infancy. I mean, it’s reeaaallly flat. On the bright side, I didn’t die of SIDS.
I shave my head on occasion, and it looks good, so I guess my skull is an acceptable shape. My ex is wildly jealous of my head shape, actually. She says that if her head looked like mine, she’d shave her head too, but since her skull is grotesquely deformed (her words, I never noticed any gross deformity) she can’t.
For years, my husband had long, beautiful, black hair. Really long hair…all the way down to his butt-crack.
One day, about 2 months ago, he reached the point of ‘enough,’ and went to the barber. He brought home his long, beautiful, black hair for me to give to Locks For Love. He got a military crew cut (I THINK that’s what it’s called. Not real sure.). His head looks fantastic! He’s got the nicest shaped skull that I’ve seen in a long time! He looks wonderful! He’s quite happy with the change, too!
No. My head is huge. And strangely shaped. And I have all these wierd moles that people comment on even with hair. (The biggest mole is right down the line where my hair parts naturally, so when I’m sweating or have been rained on or am otherwise soaking wet, my hair parts to reveal it.)
I am never, ever shaving my head for aesthetic reasons.
I’ve got a beautiful, canteloupe-shaped head.
I see no-one here reads Scott Adams / Dilbert 
You might have gotten more takers if he was talking about having pointy hair…
My head is so large (no joke – I can’t find a damn hat anywhere) that I’m convinced if I shaved my head, I’d look like a Talosian.
