Hey, y'all!

My name is Blake and I am 21 years old. I'm currently in college studying Music and Spanish Education in MN. I have always kinda wanted to try shaving my head, but have always been afraid to try it due to fears of not looking great and comments from my family. I'm hoping some of you will be able to help! Here's a photo of my current look!

Hi Blake, welcome to the site! Nice flattop. I'm not sure you would like a bald head, but there is only one way to tell. Like we often say, it will grow back. How a out trying a high and tight horseshoe flattop. You would be close to bald, but with a military look.

If you decide to shave it, it will grow back enough in about 3 weeks to shape it into a flattop. Good luck.

I agree with red if you decide to shave it’ll grow back in 3 weeks. Before you know it. Right now is a great time to get bald because it’s heading into the middle of summer. I think you’d look great but there’s only one way to know.

Barbero Pelón:
Welcome.

 You can do it on steps. What about have a horseshoe flattop?

slybeard:
One way to get family and friends to be less shocked is with short cuts that progressively get shorter.  So the flattop is a good idea, and then you can take the next step with a short buzz.  After they are accustomed to seeing you with a short buzz, a head shave is not that drastic.

Also, if you just want to try it for yourself, if you are away from family at college, give it a try when you know you will not be seeing your family for 2 or 3 weeks.  Hair typically grows at a rate of around 1/2 inch per month.  So two weeks of growth after shaved could be like a #4 buzz cut.
