I just shaved my head. Ask me anything.
Seemed like the thing to do at the time. That, and I used to do it while in the military.

1. I loved it when I had a shaved head in the military
It was great. No need for a comb.

2. I shaved mine about two years ago
it was nice not having to comb, wash, or gel, and it looked good too. Only problem was when it grew back one little spot didn't, and its starting to spread. Wear a hat avoid the direct sunlight, and stay cool. TT

3. Did you do it to mask baldness?
If so, be brave, sport an obvious toupee!

4. I once asked a guy if he grew hair to cover his baldness.
He wasn't smart enough to get it, though.

6. No, I had a full head of hair.
Collar length, too.

Just seemed like the thing to do.

11. Oh my.
:rofl:

Side note - I shaved the "other area" once. I had to wear Air Force dress uniform.

And. I. Could. Not. Stop. Itching. Myself.

It sucked hard for about two days.

10. Only for the first few minutes.
Until I take a shower, usually. :)

14. Did you find any bumps you didn't know you had?

15. Is your pate as smooth as a baby's bottom now?
I don't have the courage to do this. Plus my head is shaped like Linus from Peanuts.

17. I'd be interested to know if you catch a cold due to this.
I used to grow a full beard every winter;
no matter how warm the weather was when I finally shaved it
off, I ALWAYS caught a cold within a week.
