Phil Dalhausser
« on: August 25, 2007, 02:08:13 PM »
I just saw this guy playing volleyball at Coney Island on NBC.

Dalhausser's height can be intimidating, and his gleaming, bald head adds to the scary look. But the shaved head is for protection -- against the slings and arrows of his peers. Dalhausser started to lose his hair at 21.

"I started freaking out," Dalhausser said. "I called my mom and dad and said, 'What is this? There's a clump of hair in the sink. It's all your fault!' "

At 23, he decided to shave his head and he has been standing out on the court ever since.

Now there's a smart guy! He handled it exactly as you should, which is good to see and should (hopefully) inspire many. Good post, Razor!

I wonder who he's sponsored by.  HeadBlade sponsors a couple of Men's Volleyball Players

He's not listed as a sponsored Headblader on the Headblade site.
