I really dont think it would suit me as
1. Im skinny
2. my ears stick out abit
3. my nose isnt small
4. I just generally dont think it would suit my head shape
and I dont think my family would like it all as they are quite conservative
Any advice would be more than welcome
These are the same thoughts that most of us had prior to taking the plunge. Here are my thoughts:
1. Being too skinny or too fat is a separate issue altogether. Join a gym and bulk up (or slim down as the case may be). It's no reason not to shave your head.
2. Your ears are supposed to stick out a bit
3. Your nose size is what it is. Shaving your head isn't going to make it look any bigger or any smaller. It will look the same as it does now.
4. Another common fear that almost never turns out to be the case. Nobody's head shape is perfect; we're all just far more critical of our own appearances than we are of other people's. I'm sure you have nothing to worry about, but if it makes you feel better, post a photo of yourself and we'll all give you our honest opinions.
As for your family, they may very well not like it. Mine didn't, and I took some flack for it. And to be honest, that is one of the biggest reasons I put it off for as long as I did. But in the end, you have to do what you want. They will get used to it. They may not ever really love it, but they'll still love you, and eventually they'll shut up about your hair. Believe me, if my mom finally shut up about it, anybody will.
If you've gotten to the point where you're seriously considering shaving, then you owe it to yourself to give it a try. In my experience, you will know no peace until you do, because you will always be wondering what it's like. Just remember, it's not a permanent change unless you want it to be. Your hair will grow back more quickly than you think, if you don't like it. In all likelihood, you'll be very happy with the results. Most people are. And if you don't like it, at least you will have found out for sure.
