Title: Did any celebs inspire you to shave? if so who?
Post by: Jtro on March 27, 2009, 06:05:43 PM
I would have to say that seeing the movie condemned with Stone Cold Steve Austin really started to make me think about shaving my head as well as Steve Wilkos, they are both  bad asses and i think there pretty good looking men. They both are very confident in themselves and nobody takes any trash from them. These celebs have definitely inspired me!

For me, the football/soccer italian defender Fabio Cannavaro was an inspiratioin.  If you watched the 2006 world cup, he looked great.

For me off the top of my head...

Billy Zane,
Kelly Slater ,
Tony Kanal from "No Doubt" fame ,
the boycotting men's 1994(?) Olympic Volleyball team,
the shaved slick Golden State Warriors circa flattoped Chris Mullen
the lead elf from "Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer" (really!!)
and a ton of other "pioneers"...

...we're talking 15 + years ago for inspiration!

you should be ashamed to idolize any player on Italy lol. i still hold a grudge with them after how dirty they played the U.S. in WC06. they got like 3 red cards and laughed afterwords.

but anyways................

mine would have to be my HS economics teacher Mr. Bacho. he was awesome! he was a pretty young guy 27 i think, and EVERYONE in the school loved him. especially the ladies lol. he was a kool dude for sure.

i think tattoos are cool as hell but in my opinion (i may offend people) getting a tattoo on your bald head is the dumbest thing imagineable. wtf would you do that? thats the reason bald guys are stereotyped as "criminals" amongst the elder generation.

C'mon, Ghost.  Don't knock it till you've tried it.  Something like  that would probably look really good on you.   ^-^

correction "HAD" jobs haha. but i dunno....i dont want to sound like the "un-hip grandpa" or anything like that lol. i just think head tattoos are trashy looking. people can defend it by saying "well they can just grow their hair back. what if they cant? what if they have MPB. then theyre stuck.

I would have to say the first celeb that comes to mind for me is Howie Mandel. I think the transformation in him was among the most extreme I've seen in celebs going bald. Going from that giant mop top to bald and earrings is a bold statement. I seen him right after he shaved it and thought, wow that is a good look right there, really fits him. I shaved not long after...but was on the edge anyway. I wouldn't say he pushed me over the edge, but I'd say I liked the way he looked and thought I could have a similar look.

I also like the bald head with the soul patch look that he does...I think it takes a little attention away from the head if you're completely smooth on the whole skull like me. I don't grow good facial hair, but I can grow a decent soul patch.
