who despite having full, thick, lustrous hair decide to shave or buzz your head,

I hate you with every fiber of my being. That is all.

I'm looking at you Justin Timberlake and Bradley Cooper.

I don't know if I count; I get mine buzzed to a two, which is very short, but still looks like hair.

But I'm not sorry. I used to keep it long and cut it myself, and I had worse hair than Scott Pilgrim.

I used to hate men who shaved their head because they were going bald. I felt it was like cheating.


Of course, I did that some times last year and now my feelings are just like yours. But that's because I'm a hypocrite.

I sometimes fear going bald. Grandpa on mom's side was bald, my dad has a bald spot, my big brother had a three-hair combover á la Homer Simpson until he chose to shave his remaining hair off in his late 20s.

I think I look decent without hair; had to shave it all off in the army. Have considered it sometimes after the army, but so far I've kept my natural curls.

I shaved my head when I started thinning. If I try to grow it back now, I might be a little thicker than Patrick Stewart. It wasn't obvious that I was losing my hair, even to me, really. It just wasn't quite as thick as it used to be. I had already shaved my head once when my mom was going through chemo and liked the look. So, when I finished grad school and was picking up my life and moving, the time was right. All my new co-workers and students had never seen me before so I could go completely bald and be the bald professor right from the start.

To be honest, while some days I don't feeling like razoring my head I don't miss my hair at all. I hated the color, I hated the texture, and I hated the stupid little wave it would get if it was too long. My head gets cold a lot more than it used to now but that's what hats are for. Good riddance, hair.

No, my hair is thin and I'm forced to buzz it down every two weeks to keep from looking stupid.

I've been told I'm no longer allowed to shave my head. I have full, thick, lucious, un-balding hair. :D

Wait, hang on a second.

*flips his hair in that GQ kinda way* Ahhhhhh!

Shaved heads are kind of a luck of the draw kind of thing. Some guys look ok, some look cool and some look like radiation victims.

Poor guys.

I don't know, I think the same applies to women. The baldness thing, that is. Natalie Portman bald? Hot. Britney Spears bald? Not.

That is very true. I think it is just more a guy issue because it is often a choice related to actual balding.
My sisters exgirlfriend shaved her head, coincidentally right around when britney did which pissed her off, and she looked great. Well by great I mean it suited her. She looks like a man and the shaved head fits her look.

I still have fantastically thick and amazing dirty blonde hair. I deserve to be able to let it grow! Damn you RCMP grooming standard, DAMN YOU!

I still have thick hair although it has receded slightly at the sides of my forehead. I'm hoping I don't go bald like my Dad, but my maternal grandfather kept all his hair so I should be okay. Right? RIGHT?!

I have a full head of hair. I shave it a few times a year. I love it because you don't have to do anything to it. When it grows out it's a pain in the ass. I have the worst "bed head hair" you can imagine so if it's long I have to wash and style it every morning. When my head is shaved I don't even worry about showering. Also, I can shave my own head. There is nothing that I hate worse than spending $10 on a hair cut I could do myself. I usually go about three or four months between shavings just to remind my coworkers (many of who have thinning hair) that I shave it because of choice not necessity.

I'm rockin's the bald look until my nephew's cancer treatment is over.

Even afterwards, though, I normally buzz my head down to 21mm once a month, because I hate having to comb my hair. As soon as I have to even tuck it behind my ear, its got to go.

You may be in luck. Susceptibility to baldness is X-linked, so it comes down through the mother's side. Your mom has two X genes, one of which is from your maternal grandfather. If your mom has a lot of brothers, their hairlines will also give a hint as to what you might have.

I spent my early childhood while I had leukemia praying that I WOULDN'T go bald. I ain't about to start trying to do it on purpose now. In fact, I think the chemo I got may have given me mutant hair now, I swear this shit goes from newly cut to afro in less than a month!
