My Dad made fun of me and called me "skinhead" when I first showed him my dome. He was also Mr MPB reporter, reporting to me the process of follicular health upon each semester visit. My tactful mother told me "it doesn't look too bad."
Now every time I visit (for the last two years), the old man's horsheshoe is buzzed closer each time and he says he's "cool" now because some of the young guys at the gym he goes to are sly. My mother now buzzes his head with no guard.
So sometimes parents come around.
