Older guys can look younger!

slybeard:
I rarely wear a hat of any kind.  I never liked them, they always seemed uncomfortable to me.  But now I do not want to cover my head.

cmac:
From the opposite end on the younger guy side, i have not been carded since shaving my head. I also get called sir more often, especially with a fresh shaved head. Everyone who is sly looks between 30-50 for a long time outside of those years.

I agree, hats are overrated. I would much rather show off my bald head than hide it with a hat.

Razorhead:
Between @cmac and @reddog feedback…..maybe us sly guys are immortally aged somewhere between 30 and 50  :)

I seldom wear a hat. It feels weird. And I like to show off my bald head. Even a winter knit hat on a shaved head feels weird and is annoying like Velcro if there’s a little scruff. Summer, I’ll wear a mesh trucker hat so my scalp can at least breathe unlike a regular ball cap. And i do like the way rain feels on my head in the summer.

She was talking about how the bank tellers used to be, and said I might not remember as I was younger than her. Then she mentioned she was 62, and I laughed and told her I was almost 70. She couldn't believe it, and I told her my haircut helps. She told me she thought it looked great. It was less than an hour since I shaved, so my head was smooth and shiny!

You do look much younger than 70.

My wife tells me I look younger but at 72, it doesn't matter what I look like.
