With the way my hair grows, I shave daily.

Otherwise I have this head stubble that feels uncomfortable to me if I don't have a smooth head.

I just joined today. I will check the board daily for now.

There were many reasons for me.

Last summer was one of the hottest summers here in Houston, TX so it was important for me to cut my hair as short as possible.  However, inflation was cutting into my wallet so I couldn't go to the barber as much as I should have gone.  One time that I saw my mother she told me that my hair was getting too shaggy under my baseball cap.

One day when I was bored at home, I decided to shave off the rest of my hair even though it was already buzzed. So I grabbed my shaving foam, some razors, and a towel and began the process.  It took me about 10-15 minutes to complete it.

After rinsing my head and looking myself in the mirror, I was like "wow! I love this look and how my head feels!"
I ended up taking many selfies and shared them with other people.

In short, my reasons were:

• Trying a new look
• Saving money
• Not wearing hats anymore
• More convenient and easier to maintain

I've thought about waxing my head too for an even smooth head, but my hair is rather thick and I still have plenty of it.  I heard waxing the head hurts quite a bit, especially in my case.  I did try a "razorless" lotion that was designed for head hair, but the results were mixed. 

So razors and shaving gel for me for the time being.

When I shaved my head for the first time, I had some reactions, but most were positive.  My sister was a bit shocked at first, but doesn't care anymore. I like how smooth it feels after a good shave. I've also let my facial hair grow.

I do not intend to let my hair grow for a while.  I had to deal with hair for the vast majority of my life, so 10 months is really nothing in comparison.  My mother did tell me recently that I looked fine when we looked at a photo of me from two years ago with short hair, clean shaven baby face, and round glasses.  I wanted a more mature look.
