Welcome to the board, Daz.

We tend to be our own worst critics.  Most of us worried about how we would look when the hair came off. We usually discovered that what we saw as horrible problems in our respective appearances were not seen as flaws by anyone else.

As Dragon stated, though, a picture will get you more specific opinions.

Most guys have the same concern when considering shaving.  But from what I have seen on this board and in public, head shape really makes no difference in how well a guy looks shaved.  The high forehead is just the receding hairline, once shaved, that disappears.  So no, you would not look stupid.

IMO, shaved would look better than the hair you have remaining.  So my suggestion is to shave it and consider adding some facial hair.

If that is what has you worried, please stop feeling that way.  There is nothing unusual or odd about your forehead.

If you want to shave, grab the razor and have at it.

As sly beard says, the forehead is an optical illusion of your hairline and will disappear once you go sly.  The mpb looks  as if it has taken its toll so it's most probably time to go sly.

Good choice! Once you think about shaving your head, the thought doesn't go away until you do the deed.
