Congrats on trading up to being a completely bald man Q. I started razor shaving my head in 1983 and I've heard 'em all. My screen name really is my nickname. Its one of those things where you need to distinguish between some good natured kidding and telling an idiot to get lost. You will probably get some kidding. My friends and and coworkers have called me skinhead, cueball, curly or baldie for years(decades) I'll answer to any bald name if its thrown at me in the right way. My friends have called me skinhead for years.
Im a cop and we have probably a total of 6 officers that shave daily and we all joke with each about "hair care" tips for our "do's", compliment each other on good shine, compare razors, etc. Everyone gets a good laugh from it. We shaved bald cops all call each other names. One of the deputy chiefs calls all of us the "baldies".
I use to get teased a lot in the 60s/70s when I had a crewcut. Those clowns are back to wearing them now.

Welcome Q.
"God made very few of us with perfect heads. He put hair on all the rest."
One of the other bros here in the forum has a line under his pic that is also good, "real men don't waste testosterone on hair". -

Welcome Q. You will get some stares but they will mainly be coming from the people you already know and that know you well. It's just going to be a natural reaction from them seeing the "new you." Some may like it and some may not. But if they are true friends and family then they will not judge you no matter what they think about it.

Well, reaction has been mixed. I feel better, and I guess that is all the matters. The graying and comb-over were causing more stress that having no hair at all. I need to keep an eye on the sunscreen till I get some color on it. Thanks again for the support, I think I will lurk around on the site regularly.

Looks good. Won't take long to get some color on there.
