Don't tell me about cold, I live in Lapland. Temperatures around -5 F are not even rare here during winter. Currently it's only 23 F though.

I wear a beanie, but I am getting used to the cold.

But today after work it was snowing and getting pelted with big chunks of snow sucked.

I live in the Mid-West too and it's usually pretty cold most winter mornings. I'm usually half asleep as I step out of the house to head for work but all it takes is a cool breeze across the bare scalp and I'm wide awake by the time I get to my truck.

I love that feeling. You definitely know you're alive when that cold air hits a freshly showered head.

It probably helps that I grew up in an ice rink and played hockey since I was a kid.

Hey...you think that damn helmet could have done this to my dome? I probably shouldn't have kept cleaning the inside of it with Nair.

Stay warm fellas, except for the domes, keep 'em cool.

I usually wear a baseball cap to protect myself during the other-than-winter months. For Winter, it's  beanie all the way. But I like the breeze on my scalp.

It takes a lot of pride and confidence for someone to shave their scalp in the dead of winter. I was up at Mohegan Sun (Connecticut) last week and you would be surprised how many shaved guys (including the casino staff) and it was 25 degrees outside.

BTW-great pic AdamZHeadz.

I havent had the pleasure of experiencing a sub zero winter yet as a Sly guy. Rarely does the temp in Sydney drop below 50F. I do enjoy the cool night breeze though.

I hate the feeling of a beanie after 24 hour stubble.

For the "Frozen" Slys, just to let you know, here in the Cresent City it was 82 yesterday, 79 predicted for today.  Sweat, not wind, is the word here.  I'm a day short of two months, and I've never had to deal w/ heat & high humidity, & the sweat runs because there's nothing to hold on to!  Going to start carrying some Headwipes on days like this.  Next summer is going to be interesting!

Hey Jdog! It was  28 degrees here yesterday and put my beanie after 24 stubble!
It was like positioning some velcro on my head!

It really hasnt been that cold here yet.  It has gotten down to the mid 20's a few nights...but everyone ask me if my head gets cold.  Well my head really doesnt get cold but my legs do for some odd reason....i guess all the heat is being sucked out thru my head and being that my legs are the lowest body part....heat rises....so I know Im rambling....I cant believe Im even on here...i should be in bed....sick as a dog here....but I gotta connect with my bald bro's
