Should I shave my head?

slubu · 05-22-2006, 02:18 PM

I'm 25, 6'0, 178lbs if that matters. Here is are some pics of me. I've had that spikey hair look for a long time, and kinda want a change. But i've heard from some that I shouldn't shave my hair cause it looks good. By shaving I don't mean going bald, rather using a 4 clipper to get that fuzzy buzz cut. Just want some objective opinions...

shave it

fw10ring · 05-22-2006, 02:26 PM

Shave it. You can always grow it back, but if you don't shave it you will never know.

just do it, if you dont like it then give it 2 weeks and youll be right where you started..haah..

I shaved mine (low buzz cut) in college first year on a whim and have kept it ever since. I'm about the same size as you too, 5'10-11 and 170lbs. Plusses are easy maintenance, I can cut it myself, in the summers it's much cooler, and a lot of girls seem to like it, they rub my head n stuff. Some girls like the spikey hair look too, its a toss up in that department, every chica is different.

If you have any weird lumps on your head it might be a no go or an oddly shaped head. I shaved my roomates head in college after he bugged me and he didn't look right because of how his head was shaped and his hair hid most of those things.

It does grow back though, albeit in a few months probably to where you are now, so it's not the end of the world if you don't like it.

Shave It. Get a razor blade and a bottle aftershave

geeslice · 05-22-2006, 03:36 PM

ewww... please don't. shaved heads mean your either trying to embrace your baldness, joining aryan nations, or trying to be an all around badass.

what's wrong with being a badass? if that's the look i'd get, i'd definitely do it.

This is what I mean by shaving my head...not totally clean but like this:

bavarian19 · 05-22-2006, 04:16 PM

Shave it all... and I mean all... Dont have a single hair on you...

Or keep it..

Nikki · 05-22-2006, 04:31 PM

go for it. if you don't like it then you can grow it back in like a month lol, i'm so envious.

Squawks · 05-22-2006, 04:36 PM

From the pics, your hair is already short to begin with! Doesn't make too much of a difference in my opinion!

Who knows, the lady you're trying to get rid of may be repulsed by your new hairdo and you wouldn't have to say/do anything more to dismiss her!

Yea i agree, just do it. It'll grow back so fast. I'd love to not have to brush my hair, or style it..etc. Do it

I'd love to not have to shave my head everyday. Started a few years ago and now if I don't want to get razor irritation I have to shave everyday.

That's why my girl has her hair very short for that very reason,well part of the reason.

On a side note, what are the girls' thoughts on a shaved type head. Better or worse?

Depends on the guy. My x used to shave his, and then sometimes grow it out. I liked it the best when it was a longer buzz.
