Fun Answers to, "Why did you shave your head?"

[Timmer]

 
I'm getting in touch with my inner Buddha.  (Actual follow up:  "I didn't know you were Buddhist.  Namaste.") 
Me:  blink-blink

The U.S. Marshall recommended it "just in case."  (Being born and raised in Chicago helps pull this one off better than most.)

Staring at the top of a toilet bowl/horshoe of hair head asking the question:  "Really?"  "Because that looks silly."  "There's no way I could look at THAT in the mirror."  Sometimes you have to point...no...really.

Bozo died long ago, Krusty is a cartoon.

Because I make this look GOOD.  (Props to Will Smith.)

Add your own.

Some that I've used...

"I looked up directions for a mohawk on the internet, but followed them backwards...."

"Actually, I just grew taller than my hair."

"I didn't shave my head, just the half of it where the hair didn't fall out yet."

"Because I'm required by law to warn people how much of a badass I am." 

and here's a new one I'll probably use, "Because I LOVE being asked dumb questions, and this seemed like a good icebreaker."

I like those ones smooth.  The thing I find funny about people that ask this question is that I feel its obvious that I have a shadow pale skin/brown hair. Even after not shaving for a day.

OMG ! I am (gulp) .... BALD !  How can you tell?  How can you tell with your sunglasses on ? ? ?

Because not very much grows on top and it makes me look older than what I am.

Question: Why did you shave your head "bald"?

Answer #1: What other way is there?

Answer #2: I wanted to see if the old saying was true: "Beauty is only skin deep."
                   (slight pause) It's not true...
                   (big grin) Beauty is all the way to the BONE!!

Answer #3:  I needed more room to think.

Answer #4:  It's the most "natural" hair color I could find.

Answer #5:  I used one of those herbal "clear" hair shampoos from the Health Store. Not sure, but I think I got a bad                                     
                    bottle.

Answer #6:  It drives the people@ the DMV crazy trying to figure out what "hair color" to put on my driver's license.

Answer #7:  It's part of my probation arrangement with the court!!
                     (this one ALWAYS raises eyebrows - especially with strangers..)

Sanding is noisy and leaves swirl marks.

I just felt hot so shaved it off...and now I look cool :-) !

1. My mental processes create a large amount of cranial friction thereby causing my hair to fall out.

2. I am avoiding what I am sure will be government tax increases on shampoo in order to fund yet another dumb special interest.

3. I was tired of looking like my head was a post in a horseshoe game and the horseshoe stuck.

4.  I'm trying to get a job as a test subject for Miracle Grow.

5. I love making people guess if I am an easily pissed off biker or a peaceful Buddist.

6.  Simple....Chicks dig it.


                                                           AND FINALLY

7. You haven't lived until your significant other is wildly grippin the back of your bald head !!!

Hammerdrill.  You're a seriously disturbed man...I LIKE that in a person.

Hey Jack, maybe your answer should be, 'I wanted to see how many narrow-minded jack wads work in this school.'
