Pros and Cons of being bald
Munkynutz:
Hmmm, I for one think a lot of guys look better with a shaved head than not, and yes there are many people who probably shave their heads who would prefer a thick luscious head of hair like the crap sitting on top of Justin Beibers (ick) head.
Seeing as looking around at people I work with and live around I see virtually no-one with a head of hair like that by the time they're in their mid 30's to mid 40's it is an unrealistic goal... and then you just have a diminishing set of returns from whatever is growing on your head.
I will only agree that young girls will be less prone to dating a man who is bald either by force of nature or by choice. Women grow used to it - their brothers, uncles, fathers, co-workers, whatever... and I really don't think too many end up caring too much one way or the other. Sure they'll have preferences, but if you're awesome you're awesome with or without hair.
I will be happy to contribute any pros and cons I can think of once I have done this to my head but I think by and large I am going to love the worry free aspect of having absolutely nothing able to do impact your head at all.
I believe with the bald look it helps a lot to stay in good physical shape, but how many disgusting ill-kept slobs you know with good hair who are awesome looking just because of their hair... yup. Exactly.

Getting up in the morning and going without dealing with hair is one of the biggest pros. So is taking off your hat and not having to worry about hat hair. Lots of guys seem to decide to get in shape when they shave their heads, so another pro. I lost about thirty pounds around the same time I first buzzed my head.

Sweat! That's the biggest con for me! Now that I've shaved my head you can see the beads of sweat coming out of my head, when I eat something spicy, after a workout, on a hot day, etc. ....

Found out a con to day. As I was working at my laptop I was wearing some over the ear headphones... I tool them off and had a huge red mark where they were sitting. ( not going to stop me shaving the dome but...)

I agree so much, and unfortunately I perspire a lot. I tend to wear a bandanna under my bike helmet and when playing sports
