Please share any I missed!!!!
-
I could say it was a couple of things....starting to thin out on top....maintenance and standing out.....
Timmmayyyy!

Hey MOJIM-
I would suggest adding.... "All of the above" because that's what I would have chosen. O0
-
all of the above for me as well
-
i'll give it he good ol fashinoned ' you never have a bad hair day' sigh! lol
-
Let's see...
My answer when somebody asks, "I just felt like it"
Others I've heard...
"Curiosity"
"Because I can"
and the classic, "I lost a silly bet"
-
'all of the above' for me, too. 8) 8)
-
Was thinning anyway and the maintenance of just shaving the whole dome and just the goat is very quick.
-
One that you missed was Lost a Bet.
a buddy of mine lost a bet, and decided to stay sly
-
couple of reasons:
- balding anyway
- better suits my lifestyle
- makes me look better than i did with the hair i had
-
the reason i shaved my head was that my hair gets really greasy so im taking up to 3 showers some days so it is much easier now.
-
Reasons:
-have always dug the look of a completely shaved head...
-pretty much have a full head of hair but thought the look was one I had to have because there was always a"cool" mystique about it and I wanted to be "that guy"
- I look way better bald than with hair..and most people agree
-and the biggest reason... I have a ton more confidence bald than with hair! O0
-
Pretty much all of the above. Less on the maintenance - more on the receding thing.
-
I chose cleaner look but in reality it's a combination of that and maintenance. When trucking it's just easier to deal with and I am not forced to wear a hat if I don't want simply because I didn't take the time to comb my hair. I do like the look on me too.
-
My main reason was to be free from the whole "hair maintenance" bondage! ^-^
-
MPB what else.
-
there or several for me but going bald was the key...
-
All of the above
-
For me, its primarily about the feel and comfort. I like shaving my head against the grain at least once daily and I like the feel of being completely slick (with a lot of glare also!) A lot of that comes from serving with the infantry and living almost indefinitely in the field. Being totally bald makes hygiene a heck of a lot easier and for me, meant being more comfortable. I think we all have to admit, the feeling of being a completely slick bald man is unequaled.

I'm bald-by-choice. So I'll have to echo BaldAndre's sentiments on this matter. Except for one. Most people think I look better with my previous look which was my signature buzz. After two years bald you'd think they ease up on pressuring me to grow it back. It's not their hair and I don't appreciate their opinion when it comes to this matter. :Xo!
-
I have to say it is all the above EXCEPT I wasn't balding at all lol. I chose maintenance but I really did it for all the reasons except balding (Though I always said I'd go bald at the first sign of losing my hair anyways...guess i just nipped it in the bud ;D )

My reason is all of the above. But when the front started going, it seemed to me that it was time since I didn't want to hold on to the hair like my dad did. But I really like the look better anyway.
-
My number one reason is that the women love it!! It definitely makes you look different than everyone else.

Everything in these quotes, but MPB made me take the leap to the SLY side. O:O
-
It feels sooo good!

About 10 years ago I was travelling in Thailand and decided to shave my head. From the get go I was really pretty happy with this new look and being away from people I knew made it very easy to do. I have kept it more or less over the years but now I am being assisted by nature and MPB is the factor these days. She must have known I was a receptive candidate O0
-
All of the above, I only have one person in my life that don't like it, but they can get used to it.
-
Hair just distracts from my face... I'm too damn handsome for hair.
-
Had the MPB thing going on and kept telling the wife I wondered how I would look when it all fell out. She said just shave it off and you'll know. I left work on Friday with a nice headfull of hair but with receding hairline. Showed up Monday morning looking sly and confident. I've had nothing but compliments since. Plus.... I am way too sexy for hair.

Deer flies! :Xo!
