GOATEE = skoof looking like a dirty slimeball rat with big ears type mother fuckerrrr

I shaved my head my freshman year in college. But I did it during the winter so I was cold a lot.

I've shaved my head about 3 times over the past 5-6 years.
I prefer my long hair, it just looks better, and it's in pretty good health, so I've no problems that would make me want to.
Personally, I thing EVERYONE looks shitty with a shaved head, but hey...there's also benefits.
You get rid of any split ends, and if you haven't been taking care of your hair, it's like a clean slate.
Also, it DOES grow back a little thicker, and generally stronger. I know this because I used to have hair falling out when it was long, and since it's grown back, this doesn't happen NEARLY as much.
If you can deal with the LOOK, do it. Also, do it to the skin, because the end result after regrowth will be better, and well, there's no point getting a numbered shave, because everyone can see your bald scalp under the stubble anyway, and it'd take less than a week to grow up to a numbered shave.
Oh yeah, and I guess if you live someplace hot, it's great to not have hair up top, but you gotta watch out for sunburn...'cos trust me on this, sunburn on a head unused to it REALLY fucking kills.
My advice - Get someone else to do it...otherwise you WILL fuck up. If it's not done at a barber, use scissors, then clippers going down settings as you go, then a facial, or cutthroat razor. As soon as you've done it, get in the shower.
I LOVE how this feels...your bald head (especially if you're used to having hair) is like ultra sensetive, and the shower falling upon it is really somethin' else. You will experience this coolness for about 2 weeks.
Also - exfoliate your scalp while in the shower - there's a LOT of dead skin happening, yep - exfoliate, then condition your head, then make the hot water VERY cold, so as to close up the pores a lil' bit. I'd reccomend a steamed towel straight after drying, but most people don't do this.
Right after, towel dry your head, and hit it with aftershave, lots of it. This will hurt. THEN when the aftershave dries out, baby powder.
Also, that night, you will more than likely be uncomfortable on your pillow. My suggestion is to wrap an ever so slightly damp (like...from the dryer, ALMOST done, but damp) towel around your pillow, this will ease this discomfort.

Ok, so that's all the advice you should need...in most cases when you shave your head you'll look like a bit of a dick, but if you can deal with the uncomplimentary "look", overall, it's good for the health of your hair.

Hey just remember, Its Hair. It WILL grow back!

Well,that nails it.
I am shaving my head as well.

:eek:

Well if everyone else is doing it.....*grabs his razor*;) :D

I shave my head all the time, I started doing it about three years ago when I noticed some thinning, I've been clean shaven since.I figured if I couldn't have it all, I'd rather have none.It's just hair, if You shave it and don't like the way it looks, it'll grow back.:)

I vote: shave it.

If You need any tips or pointers, PM me.:D

Go ahead do it, its only hair. If your heads all warped and shit wear a hat untill your hair grows back.

Take it from someone who's head is shaved. I love it. People might give you shit, but fuck them. If someone can't like you without hair, they never liked you. You can tell who is shallow, when your bald. If you care about what people think, don't do it.

Good Reasons:

1. Saves you money on hair cuts, and hair supplies like shampoo or gel.

2. Saves your time in the shower

3. During the summer, you'll be alot cooler (Winter time. You'll be fucked)

4. Some girls really dig shaved heads. Not shallow girls either..

I recommend testing it out. If you hate it, grow it back. But If you dig, you might love. But judging by your personally, you probably won't like it. Not meaning to be rude.
