Now Bald and Proud! by Glenr on 06 Sep, 2007 07:52

Hi guys,
Ive been bald for a week.
Thought I would introduce myself. Names Glen and I needed a haircut. I was about to go to the hair dresser but I didn't quite make it.
I all of a sudden wondered what I would look like bald. So I grabbed the clippers and went to number 4 first. Then Number 1. THEN 0.
I looked at it and thought, ahh what the hey. Got my razor, lathered up and went to town hehe.
The result was a whiteness I had never before seen which thew me for a little while. I kept getting up and looking in the mirror all night.
Next day I went to work with my baseball cap on. (i usually wear it to work) People started say I had had a hair cut and I replied by saying "you could say that" and flashing the whiteness hehe.
Next day no cap.
Lots of shocked looks and questioning about why. To that my response was I wanted a change. Pretty much everyone has been positive after the intitial shock.
Of course I have had my fair share of ribbing including Cancer patient, that I looked like any bald celeb they could think of etc. The trick was to joke along with them and it all settled down by day 3 mostly.
Anyway I am really enjoying being bald and I think I will be a lifelong convert
Cheers to all my fellow chrome domes
Glen
PS I love the way avatar pic streatches when you load a page. It makes me look like a conehead
