Is it me?

It might be just me, but after you first shaved your head, did you start to suddenly notice other bald guys around you more?  I swear I never really saw many before, now I see them everywhere!  Yesterday on my lunch walk (about 3/4 to a mile everyday), I counted 19 completely bald guys.  Thats not counting guys with the side hair.  That number just seems high even though I am walking downtown LOL

Just thought I'd share that observation

No, It's perfectly normal.....And it's not just with shaved heads....When I bought my truck eight years ago, I suddenly noticed that there were many trucks of the same models on the street, something I would not have done had I not bought the truck. In my bowling league, I counted as many as 36 guys at one time with shaved heads, so it's not just you.

It's called the Baader-Meinhof Phenomenon!

The Baader-Meinhof phenomenon occurs when a person, after having learned some new piece of audible or visual information like a new fact, word, phrase, image or other item for the first time, encounters that item again, perhaps several times, shortly after having learned it.

Several members of my family have been running into it since we named our son Atticus. Since he was born lots of them have told me how they never really heard it used before, but now they see it in the credits for TV and movies, they over hear it in public, etc.

It's very, very common and not just you

Very true.  Nowadays even in far off Oz the cities are full of bald men young and old, chief executives and workers.  It is a world wide phenomenon and you certainly notice it more when you first shave.
