Plus - think of all the cool stories you could tell on how you got the scar - no one needs to know the truth - you got the scar by saving children in a burning building, rescued a dog from being hit by a car, beat up a psychopath who tried to cur your head off - I mean the stories are endless if you think about it!
Hi guys, I wanted to share with you a few unexpected things that happened in the past 3 weeks. I think it might help people who are in a similar situation.
Right after I shaved I went on a trip and met quite a few people there. They would look at the scar when they first saw me but then didn't really seem to care that much. And then something that I didn't see coming happened. A girl I liked asked me about my scar, and she told me she liked it and wanted to know what was the story behind it. After a few days I noticed she was getting more and more attracted to me and she told me that she really liked me but she had a boyfriend.
Then I went back home and attended a birthday party with a lot of my friends who hadn't seen me shaved yet. Same reaction, they looked at it but weren't horrified or anything. By now I was a bit more confident about it in my every day life. I would even start to smile at people I caught staring at the scar on the street or in shops.
Now the last bit that surprised me the most is when I went on a date this weekend with a girl I met a few months ago. I only saw her a couple times before and still had hair at that time. She told me I looked much better shaved, and in the morning, after I spent the night at her place she said : "Did you shave to show off your scar and look cool?
". I wasn't expecting that...
So after thinking that being bald with a scar would scare girls off, turns out some girls like it!
Now see, it wasn't so bad after all, was it? So did you shave all the way?
I did with an electric razor not a blade. I'm still not very comfortable with the blade, I'll read up the forum on that topic.
It's a bit less visible with after shaving but not that much. The contrast between the gray hair and the white scar make it stand out a lot.
