I do prefer contacts so that I can wear my "cool" shades...
I have worn glasses since I was 8 years old (that’s 24 years if anyone’s counting). And it's kind of odd, but I found that for years I found my glasses to be a distraction to myself and others. It was something that attracted stuff like "four eyes' and other bullshit teasing. My answer was to find wire rims with the smallest lenses I could find. I wanted to draw attention away from the fact that I wore glasses.As time wore on and I started performing music at renaissance festivals, glasses became impractical to say the least. So, I switched to contacts full time and had a full head of long curly red/blonde hair. I wore contacts full time for about 2 years and finally got tired of all the hassle that comes along with them. When I shaved my head for the first time I was wearing an older pair of my glasses. black plastic frames that looked kinda geeky (which makes sense in that I AM in fact a big geek, I have developed into a big scary, geek). But I noticed that with my head shaved and my ears pierced at 0g, the glasses were suddenly a kind of striking addition to my face.I think that bigger, thicker framed glasses look best with shaved heads. Since then I have worn 3 different pairs of prescription glasses and I always lean toward more ‘eye catching†frames. Now using them as a full time accessory rather than trying to hide them. I have found that I don’t do much half-assed anymore. I tend to make more bold statements in my clothing and general appearance than many around me do. I have bold tattoos in plain site and have large earrings, I wear UtiliKilts just about every day and have never been more comfortable with myself physically than I am right now (ok, I need to start working out more, but otherwise...). Choosing to shave my head fulltime has definitely been a big part of my personal evolution. I stand out in a crowd and grin at the rest of that crowd as I wade through them every day.In short, Go bald, go bold! In case this doesn’t make sense to anybody but me, it’s after 2:30 in the morning.... bear with me.
Only issue I have is that my glasses where chosen with my hairstyle and color in mind, so without the hair they didn't quite "fit" anymore. I've gotten used to it though, which is good as my glasses are expensive even after insurance so I'm not going to just go out and replace them unless I need to.
