New driver's license
JohnRa:
I went to my local BMV here in Ohio to renew my driver's license over the weekend. I had to fill out paperwork with hair color, eye color, etc... you know.. the normal stuff. I wrote Brown for hair.
The lady looks at me and says, "Would you like your hair color listed as bald? That's a choice now."
I thought it was pretty funny!

I went for several years with my full head of hair photo after going sly. I always felt an explanation was needed when showing my DL. I was happy when I got a baldie photo upon renewal. Minnesota no longer lists hair color, which makes sense. Hair color can easily change on people.

Yes, mine was for the "realID". I think Ohio is calling it the "Compliant ID" and it can be used for flying or other federal identification purposes.

I was actually wondering about that. It's fairly easy to see "brown" on identification and tell whoever is looking at it that you shave it bald. But what about the opposite? I put "bald" on my license and then stop shaving for some reason? Will they accept it if you tell them you stopped shaving it? Will they interpret bald to mean that the person doesn't have any hair on their head naturally? I'm probably over-thinking it. :)
