Post by: mr.poptart on September 06, 2008, 06:27:17 PM: Update, I went ahead and shaved my head. I looked at some of the posts here and the pictures of all you handsome bald guys, and I knew I had to go ahead and shave it all off. I have one concern though... my head feels a lot colder and I am beginning to develop a headache. Is that normal?

That coldness is your slick noggin finally getting some fresh air! I felt the same way 3 months ago. Do you still have a headache? Hope not. Let us know how things are going.

Post by: Timmay on September 06, 2008, 09:18:09 PM: Your noggin is just getting use to not having any coverings. I read somewhere else on a website that said to wear a cap or something in your head at night when you go to bed. Supposeably to help ease a bald noggin headache.

Title: Re: Hello
Post by: time2shine on September 08, 2008, 08:54:12 AM: Welcome man. I know one of the guys in here had constant headache problems, and unfortunately, it was because of headshaving. If the problem persists, you may try growing it out a little on the weekend just as a test. Blasphemy, I know.. but give it a few days, it's most likely the temperature shock like the other dudes said.
Looks great, enjoy the forum.

Post by: Kojack on September 08, 2008, 06:55:54 PM: I was never bothered much by the coldness.
Might be because I live in GA and it's usually pretty warm here I guess.
Being sly looks good on you poppy. Very well done.

Post by: champ007 on September 08, 2008, 07:14:32 PM: Hey Poptart... congrats! O0
So have the headaches gone??
You might try some different lotions or methods. My head was numb the first time I shaved, so I am not familiar with the headache sympton.

Post by: xnewyawka on September 09, 2008, 01:32:56 PM: Hey mr. poptart, welcome to the SBG site, good to have you join us. The smooth noggin' looks good, you should smile about it. :)

Give yourself a few weeks to allow your head to get used to being free. If the headaches do persist, then you may have to go with only a short buzz. One of our members here, ( I believe it was handlebar) had the same problem and he had to compromise and grow back a bit. Sometimes you just have to do what makes you feel better.

Good luck and hope it works out.

Welcome my bald bro!

I think we lost him. He doesn't seem to be registered anymore. :(

Post by: BALDANDRE on October 05, 2008, 08:29:10 PM: Hmmm, we lost "Handlebar" for the same reason...

a shaved head is seemingly a very fragile, delicate thing?!
