Whats your advice for a conehead?

[IamAconehead]

I am 33 years old now and my hairline is moving back slowly & my conehead is not noticable to anybody yet.
I would love to shave my head but the 1st time I did back in Jr High I noticed my head was very pointy. It is basically the same shape as the actors in the movie Coneheads, just not as long.

Whats your guys advice for someone like me? I've thought about hair restoration done to having some kind of skull reconstruction done. I dont really like the thought of my head/skull being cut open and having a steel play on my head. But I hate having a conehead.

Post a photo so we can see what you're talking about.

No one has a perfect head, and often, we're our own worst critics.

[Hingatao]

SlyBear's right. Chances are nobody else would even see it.

We've had people come here with the same claims before that their head was cone shaped and once they posted a picture of them shaved there was no evidence of a cone shaped head.  My guess is that your hair is causing an illusion as to what your head shape really is.

[IamAconehead]

yeah, ive seen the other guy who said he had a conehead & it wasnt even close to being a conehead.
I shaved my head a couple times when I was younger buy always ended up wearing a hat until it grew back to a length where nobody could notice.

When washing my hair, I would use the shampoo to flaten my hair all the way down as possible & sure enough, the cone shape of my head is obvious. I may post a pic, but I do believe that you guys will agree with me & it will only make me more unsecure about the shape of my head.

When thinking about this, I get frustrated because how many people actually have a conehead? Its probably only 1 in 50,000 people. Yeah, some of you may say something like "Your unique & should consider yourself blessed". But honestly, I'd not like to stand out in a crowd in this kind of fashion.

As TheSlyBear said, we usually are our worst critics about how we see ourselves. Most people do not take much notice or care about the things you see as flaws.

The shape of your head is beyond your control so stop obsessing over it. The only issue is do you want to be a completely smooth conehead or a conehead with a fringe around the sides?  Those are the only two choices, though I doubt the shape of your head is as bad as you think. We get a lot of people claiming to be coneheads; I have yet to see one that actually was. Removing all of your hair can actually make your head look smaller, less pointy, etc.

[TheSlyBear]

Listen to Razor, for he is wise. Even if your head is as bad as you think, thinning hair or a ring will accentuate it.

I'd love to be able to shave my head.  If you guys google Ryback the wwe wrestler, its similar to his except mine has no roundness to it. I dont mind my head being pointy, I just wish it had some more roundness to it. Anyone know any solutions to fix the cause other than cutting open my skull? Like fat injectables or anything. I'd love to be able to shave my head one day and feel comfortable doing so. Thanks for your responses guys.

I just looked him up, there are guys I see everyday with that head shape (isn't this called the diamond head shape??)

You can't see it in my profile pic but my head is the same as this (maybe more pronounced). Sometimes people ask me if I have bumped it because they think it's a swollen lump!
So please trust me I get where you are coming from. I have had (and still sometimes still do have now and then) my obsessive unhappy focussing on one thing negatively and making it really really big! days regarding this.

This is all in your thinking and how you see things. 1/ This headshape is quite normal and very common. 2/ work on acceptance and positivity, shave it all off and bare yourself to the world.
The first day you will feel literally naked, so exposed and vulnerable and like everyone is looking at you.
This is scary but this is good. You will soon feel free and liberated and confident and you will get get a feeling of "this is who I am, take it or leave it!"

Please trust what we say here, we do understand, I understand. This is your opportunity to shake this heavy monkey off your back and come out the other side. Sly, wiser happy and free

You mean this guy?

I just went through a bunch of images of him, and only the one below showed anything approaching the cone shape you keep saying you have.

It is due to the camera angle and the perspective of the picture. The rest of his images showed a rather ordinary dome. You might be having the same thing happen to you due to your perspective when you look in the mirror.  

Seriously, sir, you are seeing yourself through the most critical eyes possible. No one else is going to give your head's shape a second glance unless you make it an issue.

I have a head that is flat in back and bulges out on the sides. My avatar doesn't show it due to the angle of the camera. My own wife did not see what I saw until I pointed it out to her.
  
Razor X and Crowbar gave you the great advice. I could not add to it if I had to.

[IamAconehead]

yeah thats the guy. But like I said, I dont have the roundness shape to my head. I guess the best way to let you guys see is to take a pic. (In due time) With that damn movie "coneheads" It makes things more difficult obviously :/

I know this may help in only the smallest of ways, well probably not at all but I am publicly going to say this now....

I have my own cone head and a set of chicken legs in good working order. I am not sure I need two cone heads, are your legs ok? Do they reach to the ground? If even an inch too short it's a problem, as then you tend to float
