Discussions About Being Bald > Advantages and Disadvantages to being Bald
What didn't you expect when you went sly?
Mike E. P.:
I love the way it feels. I was surprised how much I enjoy the feel of shaving. I'm always surprised how jolting the cold feels on my head as winter approaches. And I really don't like the rain on my head. I wear a lot of hats outside in bad weather - but I like hats, so all's good!

I've always hated shaving. Thankfully I can go 3 or 4 days without shaving my face and only have a fairly heavy stubble.
What surprised me about shaving my head is how obsessive I've become about it. It's been a little over a month and yesterday was the first day off I've taken, and it's killing me.
So enough of this, I'm off to get "clean".

I didn't expect to hear my theme song playing every time I walk in a room. O:O (are you guys hearing it too?) :*))

Well i had a few things i didnt expect. Theres the things alot of the previous posters on this thread mentioned, the velcro feel of shirts and hats sliding on my scalp, the obsession with shaving, etc. Biggest surprise though was my mom's reaction. I had expected her to ridicule me for it, saying it was a dumb chioce for me, i dont have the right shape head to pull it off, i ruined my looks. , so on. But she didnt say any of those things. She did make a light hearted joke, but otherwise her reaction was rather neutral. Of course at that time i hadnt decided to remain bald by choice yet, it was just an experiment to see how i would like it. But once i decided to stay shaved and told her, she only responded by saying that she had decided not to fight her whiteish hair by dying it anymore. Out of all the surprises i had from shaving my head, and deciding to stay razor shaved despite my full head of hair, that was most shocking

Good question.
I am surprised that I am still completely bald 4 years later.
