Has anyone ever had any negative comments about being bald. I was a little nervous about what family and friends would say about it, but so far everyone said they liked my bald head.

My daughters scowled about it at first, but they got used to it. Wife thought the 'feel' was creepy at first. Everyone else loved it.  The family members have come along and wife likes the feel now. I love the head rubs. Makes my day.

Given your profile picture, you look great with a shaved head.  Looks smart.

Not really. I'm a scary guy so people kept their opinions to themselves.  :)

Initially from my wife, but she was the only one.

Negative--wife, oldest daughter--who relented.  Wife never really has bought in.

mostly my female friends said that they like my longer curly hair better - but I never really felt good with that hairstyle

It has been so many years now that I can't remember LOL.  But I got more head rubs than anything.  I do believe I was called Mr. Clean a couple times.  Because I wear a captive hoop in my left ear.

Twice from my mom based in large part on the outfit I was wearing at the time. Overall, though, she thinks it suits me. The bf didn't like it at first but warmed up to it. My sister and a fellow crew member on my ship still don't like it.

Only outright negative comments have been from my mother... heck, it's almost 16 years since I took the plunge and she still nags me about it every now and then :P Apart from that, only neutral or positive reactions.

All positive comments from people I care about.

Only negative comments (and very few at that) from people whom I couldn't care less about.

Of course, all that matters is really how I feel about it.

Most of the outsiders in my life didn't care.....As for my family, the only three people who had anything negative to say are all deceased....Life goes on...and so does my bald head!

I had a negative comment today. I have been back and forth to sly for many years. I mostly stay bald but have grown my hair but last time I shaved it I felt I probably couldn't go back to hair again as the ship has sailed.

The negative comment was actually about my hair and not me and someone said your bald spot was getting really bad! It made me realise how much others do take note but may not comment!

Mostly positive comments. My family did not have anything bad to say. One of my pastor friends loves it (then again, he is bald too.) I've heard lots of comments about looking like a friend of mine (who is bald and bearded.) I think the weirdest comment was when a coworker finally noticed I was bald. I've been this way for about a year.
Once upon a time. The End.
