Introduction

I am currently working towards shaving my head. It's a process for me to build up the confidence to do it. I have set the date to be December 26th. I hope to learn from the members while I am on this journey.

Welcome and good luck to you, Deepsouth. Just wondering: how did you set this date?

Welcome DeepSouth!

I chose a date as well. Mine was New Year's day 2013.

I thought about it for over two months before I shaved everything off. Once you do it, though, you probably will wonder why you ever hesitated.

Glad you are here, sir.

The reason I picked the 26th of December is the holidays allow me to get us to shaving my head before I go back to work after the 1st.

I did something similar. I'm a teacher. The first time I shaved completely sly it was right before summer break.

Welcome, DeepSouth.

Have you been buzzing your hair at all so far?

You can always work your way down gradually from the #2.

I am hoping to avoid the white skin where my hair used to be look.

That was a big reason for me choosing to shave during the winter as well.

I am glad to hear I am not the only one who thinks that way.

Welcome to the forum, Deepsouthprep! Good decision O0 I think when you set the date,  it makes you feel as if you give yourself a word. I didn't set a particular date when I shaved completely bald but I did it during my vacation to get used to a new look.

Thank you for the welcome. I thought setting a date would be the best plan of attack. I currently have a full head of hair and thought a getting Use to it period would work out in my favor.
