My wife originally didn't like the idea of me going down to the wood even though my scalp looked like a pin cushion. Sparse stubble on top. Once I did it she was impressed with my confidence to do it anyway. Most people who comment suggest my head is the ideal shape and it simply suits me. The only downside I find is I get chilled a bit quicker without any insulation on the roof so-to-speak. If I wear a beanie outside, sometime it simply slides off as there's nothing to grip on. I'm pretty happy being sly.
