HELP THE EGGHEAD #cmonson

[rs1010]

Hey gang,

So I'm new to this thing, but here's the basic story.

Early 20's, a time of wonder. Wondering how the hell your hair is falling outta your head. Half stress, half genetics, probably.

Regardless, I'm a fairly confident dude. I do stand up comedy weekly. So getting trash talked is par for the course. Shaving my head seems not so insane to me. The hair's thinning out and I don't like the idea of a slow combover'd death. I'd rather Bruce Willis it (?) and jus shave the noggin and be a bada$$ (I put the dollar signs in not to censor, but to show you all how serious I am 'bout gettin' dat paper).

Here's the catch; I'm fairly certain the aliens decided it was my fate to have an egghead (the charming lot in high school even nicknamed me that one year). I've thrown a picture in for proof but, hey, I figured I'd throw the question out there. Do it? Don't do it? Head too weird? Hang in there and let it slow fade itself? Insecurity isn't the issue, it's more of a benefits thing. Would I gain anything by hanging on to what I've got? It's solid on the sides, but seems to fancy fading away in the middle, sort of like the Lakers.

Your opinions are muchly appreciated gang.

Well, the head is the head.  I think if you're losing the hairs, you're going to look worse over time, not better.  You seem inclined to go smooth, so I say, go for it.  Worst case scenario, you let it grow back.

You still seem to have a full head of dark hair. 

  What one person sees as odd is interesting or attractive to someone else.   Do what you want it is your head and make the most of it. Your anxious about hair loss and what it will look like. If you shave it now, questions answered and you'll see it is ok after all and not so odd. Give it a try it grows back but I think you will like the look and feel of it and be in control of your hair and not letting it worry you.

SHAVE IT! See, When you become a famous comedian you'll be able to buy a sweet convertible wit yo paper... AND you'll be able to save some extra Cash, because a shaved head(in a convertible) is most certainly more fuel efficient and eco friendly..... just sayin

Doesn't hurt to try...you can always grow it back if you don't like it

Do it!  Stick to it for at least 30 days.  You have nothing to lose and can always grow it back.  Plus you might come up with some new material for your stand up routire.

That's a similar head-shape to me, it's a little bit elongated.  People who size motorcycle helmets say something like at least 25% of people have that head shape.  No worries it looks cool. 

Michael Jordan has a similar head shape and the singer of the Australian band Midnight Oil. 

Good luck dude!

I would go for it and shave the noggin. I hope you like the look. Your hair worries will be over. It will grow back I'd it is not for you.
