this is stupid, i know; but after hair, i felt my head was more susceptible to cuts and injury from playing ball, etc. I know that's crazy to think that.

I'm sure I speak for everyone who's bumped their head on a car door since going sly when I say so.
What surprised me was similar to what you guys described: a Velcro feel, reactions of acquaintances and strangers to the hairstyle change, addiction to head shaving. I didn't expect how nice it is to swim bald-headed in a pool in summer. And I didn't expect that questions about my shaved head would be a frequent conversation starter. Also, I didn't expect some friends and acquaintances wouldn't recognize me:-)
At first I knew my regular customers, neighbours, and coworkers would be shocked. However, its going on 4 months and people still stare at me and make somewhat rude comments. At least once a day a customer goes "What the heck possessed you to shave your head?" or "You look like you'd have a full head of hair, you're silly to shave it." Plus all day long I have to hear people say how shiny it is. Yes I know its shiny --- move on!When I first shaved my head, a customer went "You looked hideous with blue hair and look hideous bald."You hear about women being body-shamed all the time and while you can't compare my experience to what women go through, it still feels like an attack on my appearance.[/quoteonNever had problems or bad comments about my chrome dome,those customers are rude.....
