• So of course I love my shaved head but I saw I have a birth mark. I thought it was razor burn but no. I guess I can live with it but I was un aware of it untill my wife pointed it out. Any ideas please let me know?

• I have the exact same thing, koopmeister!
  
  When I had hair, it was a little red area that extended down from the hairline in the back.
  
  When I shaved, my wife pointed out that the mark actually extends upward on the bean...so what I had seen for years was only the tip of the iceberg.... LOL!
  
  I don't sweat it...I guess if someone was standing directly behind me in line or something and really stared....they'd see it.
  
  I figure as soon as it gets a tan goin'....it will minimize the mark.
  
  So, here's to Minimizing the Mark!!!

• I have one too.  Much like Rob described his mine was only slightly visible with hair covering it, but with no hair it stands proud, maybe about 1.5 in by 1 in.  I remember being a kid and my sis would give me crap about it comparing me to the Russia Pres from the 80/90s. .  Now people see it and they automatically assume I knocked my nogin.

• Thanks getting used to it. I guess we are more critical of what the beans look like compared to others. I got a in-grown hair on the back of my head that is keeping me from shaving until it heals. Any suggestions on how to speed up the healing process?

• I use Neosporin for just about everything.  I imagine it would do the trick for an ingrown hair.
