@zetaeffe Just wanted to thank you for posting on here about your experiences with scalp tweezing over the years. You were a big inspiration to me, contributing to me eventually going down that route myself - I have epilated my scalp for slightly more than two years now.
Laser never really seemed an option due to my natural hair color.
Anyway, feel free to send me a message to exchange a little further on this if you?d like to (I?d love to!).

Congratulations!!! Glad to see you got great results and you enjoy it

I'm been tempted to try out using tweezers because I used to do it for my facial hair, but it seems so long and painful to do it.
Doing professional waxing seemed like a better alternative, but from what I have been reading it seems so painful and expensive if done monthly.
Part of the reason I went with the bald look was avoiding having to go to the barber every month so I could save money. Waxing monthly seems like would defeat the purpose to me.
I might still try it at least one. I'm curious on what I would look without that dark shadow I get after not shaving for a day.

I tried waxing my head, just one time it was difficult even to find a technician who would do it, I was ready for the pain because I?m regularly have my back and shoulders and other parts of my body waxed so I knew what it would feel like.
The results were good, but it wasn?t a good option for me because he said I would have to let it grow back to at least a quarter of an inch before he could wax it again so that would mean that I don?t really look good for a week or so and then I?d have to go through a month of letting my hair grow before I could get it waxed again and it would look awful for that whole month so I didn?t see the point.
I did try an epilator once, but it was extremely painful. It didn?t seem to get all of the hairs.
But I must say that you guys who posted here recently look fantastic!!!!!!!!!!

I'm going to buy me a facial hair wax kit this week and try it out Sunday. I'm curious to test it to see if I can get rid off the shadow and not shave as often. I know it's not a permanent solution.

Update: I bought me a waxing kit and I tested a small portion of it. I have to admit that I don't think I want to really do the entire head anymore. It was a bit painful to remove the wax and the results were not that good. It was messy anyway.
For now I shall continue just shaving. I might, however, consider lasering my facial hair, except the moustache area. I can easily use tweezers or waxing for that area without being painful.
As for the head, I still don't want to do it unless I really become bald by nature.
