Was anyone interested in shaving their head as a kid? I was a fan of professional wrestling, and Stone Cold Steve Austin and Goldberg were two of my favorites, so I thought the shaved heads looked really cool. And when I was 12-13, Fast and the Furious and Vin Diesel were really popular, and I thought he looked really cool. I was really into action and war movies too, and I remember seeing Jason Isaacs with a totally shaved head in Black Hawk Down. I remember thinking to myself, "Yep, I'm getting that someday." And my mom was a hairdresser, extremely talented with both women's and men's cuts. So around that time I started asking her to cut my hair really short. Brushcuts, crewcuts, etc. And eventually my mom asked me if I'd want a total buzzcut. I enthusiastically said yes, so she put a #1 guard on the clippers and sheared me almost like a new recruit. I loved it, and so did everyone else. Even the girls at school complimented me. I continued with short cuts until I ironically began balding, and shaved my head at 27.
