I just had to get a new photo for my CCW renewal and they made me put down my hair color.  I was wondering how they would handle the new look!   :*))  I guess they must do that too on your driver's license?

They do ask for hair color in Illinois?  Wonder why there is no block that says "None"?

At my present job, I am a warehouse guy.  Anyway, one time there was this young guy who used to have my position.  He had come into my store one day and I heard later that until I started talking to him, he thought that I was one mean looking dude.

Everyone knows that drivers license pictures are always the worst ones ever taken, but when I got my license renewed this past summer, everyone told me that I looked like a bouncer. now by all means I'm far from having the bouncer body. I never would have thought that look from a simple ole headshave

Mine was not all to bad, I had it taken back in the days when I had hair, and here in AZ we don't need to renew our liscense for a good couple of DECADES!  the only thing that really stinks about it: I'M SMILlING!  You know the majority of the times that your wipping that beast out, you are not going to be smilling.
Peace

I hear you... 6'2" 215lbs of fun here.  Hell, a few of the girls on campus started to call me "Osito", translated it means "Little Bear"; I have no problems maintaining the tough look, but when people get to know me they realize, about the only thing that I am going to do is bear hug...  I give some Bone Breaking Bear Hugs though!  ;D

I wonder what it is that makes a guy with no hair seem tougher?  The association with wrestlers and villains from the movies?

How many movies always have the "steriotypical" goone as a bald heavy set dude.  You add that with the less positive PR that is promulcated from the Skin Heads, and you have a cocktail recipe that equals out to one HardCore screwdriver

I think that when guys first started shaving their heads that it was so unusual that people tended to shy away from it.  It was a very strange thing at first.  The movies & talk shows about skin heads probably didn't help.  Hasn't it changed?

Now that you mention it, people do tend to quickly get out of my way at the supermarket...
