Amatlock, there are quite a few of us bbc guys on here. Yes, we have a different situation than the bbn guys. I still hear the old "why would anyone shave off a perfectly good head of hair" comment. I have gotten to the point of just saying "because I like it". I intended to shave my head one time out of curiosity. Well, that was nearly 3 years ago. Also, I started see quite a few guys sporting a shaved head, and thought it looked good. Two other benefits, no grey hair and my dermatitis issue disappears if I keep shaved.

Havent gotten that one myself, mostly just compliments on how good it looks on me,  or in some cases people have simply not said anything about it at all. Maybe they are the ones who might say that, but knowing its probably not a good idea because im pretty vocal about defending my opinions and choices. Even if i realize a choice was not so great (def not the case in shaving, i think its one of the best choices ive ever made regarding my appearance) i will tend to loudly defend it as being a bad choice i had to learn about for myself.

My reasons for becoming bbc are pretty similar to yours even with the intent for it to be one time, except for the dermatitis, as well as i felt i needed a change of some sort after a pretty rough year last year.
