I've had lots of women rub my head, but never lick my head, maybe I'm hanging out with the wrong people.

another thing that isn't necessarily a pro but interesting it the fact you can fully grip your own head, almost like palming a basketball.

There are so many "pros"...

The only "con" that comes to mind at the moment, isn't a huge deal....and more of a "con" for newer shavers like myself....not to mention for the person with the misconception...

That "con" would be fielding the knucklehead perceptions...

My wife actually has fielded this one the most....

"Why in the world would he shave his head?...he's not going bald"

I've gotten the same direct question to me twice in as many weeks...

Actually it was couched as a statement:

"Only men who are going bald do that...you know because they _HAVE_ to."

But again....no biggy....they don't have to understand "why" anymore than I have to grow out my hair just because I can.

My experience in knowing y'all and other chromers is that about 50% shave (or at least did initially) as the best alternative to MPB......

and 50% shave 'cause they just want to.

The best parts of the whole thing imho is lathering up with the shave gel or cream and then the cold shower afterwards.    It just runs right off and doesn't even feel unbearably cold.

Bald Ben, as a new guy to this I gotta say I like that CDI factor.
For me:  Like the reaction it gets
              Like the feel of the breeze over my head on my Harley
              Will never have to worry about using Just for Men
              Can't miss me in a crowd

Pros for me:

1.windy days are enjoyed again!
2. getting caught in the rain won't give you a bad hair day.
3. if you wake up and have to get to work fast....you don't half to worry about what your hair looks like.
4. riding in a vehicle with the windows down feels great again! i was terrified to ride in the back seat with the front windows down when i was going bald.
5. the self-esteem and confidence boost is amazing.

Robmeister, Big Ups Man  O0  I shave because I think It looks a HELL OF ALOT BETTER!  Cleaner, and its less to worry about.  Here's a Pro: NO MORE HAIR GEL HEAD!  and not to mention NO MORE DANDRUFF! 

People can say what they want, I shave my head for me, because I think it looks dope.  Hell, in the end, they will be wishing they were us anyways when we walk off with the beautiful ladies  B*)
Peace

with a bald head, you dont go into panic mode when yous Son comes home from school with Nits and until some one invents roller blades for nits, i think us Baldies are pretty safe!

I'm assuming Nits are the same thing as Lice - or little bugs that live near hair follicles.   @n(

If so, I completely agree!
People are not limited by the circumstance that they are born in. They are limited by the size of their dreams. Show them that their dreams can have no limits and in turn their accomplishments can be limitless.
