head shaving a friend by steve282 on 28 Nov, 2012 16:28

I've persuaded my good friend (who is 47) to let me shave his head! i've attached his photo.
I've been bald for years and told him how liberating it is. Not sure of the best methods to shave his head and wondering if it will suit him and if he will thank me for it!
Happy to share before and after photos.

Welcome ... clearly he is open to the concept, and perhaps looking forward to a change.
I think it's important that you encourage him to "maintain" for the 30-day challenge to really get a sense of how it is to live with it and for others around him to adapt.
And, kudos to you, because this is obviously a very good friendship. -

If you post a pic of his face, we all should be able to tell you if he has the head/face for it. We'll all be waiting for the after pics too

Make sure you buzz him hair down with clippers then shave with the grain. Stress the importance of letting his scalp adjust to daily shaving before venture against the grain.

Would you do it if you looked like him? That may be a difficult one!

Have we heard from Steve since he shaved his mate's head?
Do you think we need to call 911 or 000 here in Oz

Steve,
As long as you can outrun him, do what you want. Seriously though, if he is willing to let you shave his head, I think he is open enough to the smooth head look/feel. If he doesn't like it, hair will grow back. -

Is there a best way to shave his hair type? I was wondering if anyone would recommend a certain method!
