WHO encouraged U 2 shave your dome?
« on: July 01, 2008, 08:28:40 AM »
hello fellow chrome domes:  1st of all...sorry if this topic has been discussed but "who encouraged U 2 shave your dome?"  i'll start:  the people that "encouraged" me 2 "do the deed" was my beautiful wifey, my friend "slickdome68" (he's a member here but not an active member), & a co-worker at work.

i was a "chrome dome" b4 signing up on the SBG forum.  so... how 'bout U?  who were the people in your life that encouraged U to "do the deed"?  was it the SBG forum?  was it your loved one?  what's your story?

I have a friend who encouraged me to buzz my head, this is back when my hairline just began receding. Although he never said it was because of that, it was because I always wore a hat and when I would take it off, I'd have major hat hair, so he was like, "just buzz it and don't worry about it. Plus, it'll look cleaner and give you a younger look when you do go without a hat." So I did it, then I'd grow it out, and buzz it again a few months later. This happened for a while up until the point where it just got to be too much of a hassle dealing with styling my hair, so I began buzzing it consistently.

Then I just kept taking it shorter and shorter, and on St. Patty's Day this past year, I took out a razor and shaved it to the skin. Now I shave it every other day.

I was going to say the same thing.
Although I was considering it before finding this great forum, the encouragment of the SBG's were the reason I took the plunge.

I would agree most of the credit to shave my head came from mother nature, but it was the guys here that really kicked up my sly pride to another level...

BTW, Thanks guys... I feel I have you guys with me everywhere I go with my bald dome. Kinda like the Verizon network...

I was influenced by Telly and Yul.  I wanted to be a skinhead since the first time I saw them on TV. It was just a matter of time before the crewcuts and flat tops went....
