Just in case no one's seen my 'before' pic on the 'before and after' gallery, her it is again.  I can't believe now how high my receding hairline was becoming! ???

Wowsers Rob!! Have you ever been told that with hair you bear an uncanny resemblance
to Gomez from the movie The Addams family?!!  :o

(no offence intended!)



No offence taken!

Mostly people used to tell me I looked like Freddie Mercury, so that's a new one on me! :D

oooh, you'd have to start singing before I could pass judgement on that one!!  ;)

I guess I'm somewhere between to be real honest, but f**k hair. It bugged me for so long anyway and time to move on to next problem, my insecurity and self confidence.
I can still be the one, Im dreaming about and I dont need my hair to become him!

I had thining hair on top but the back of my head looked like someone took a dinner plate, drew a circle around it and shaved it.......finally decided to just get rid of the rest of it after my daughter took a Pic during a family gathering and I seen what the back of my head really looked like from a distance.....Yikes !!!

I voted for both...I was thinning on top, and in the front, and I was in the military at the time and did not have a whole lot of hair in the first place.   So if there was a category of "Did you shave you head because of MPB or BBC or Just friggin easier to deal with", I would have went with that one....
I was told to think outside the box, how did I get in the box in the first place?

That photo was about 9 years ago...

hee hee i was in a "growout" for my sister's wedding ( see I played by "those stupid rules" a few times)...during the grow out is when I met my soon to be wife..

it's funny I kept telling her when we first met that I usually have a shaved head and what she thought of it...well I think she thought I wasn't serious, so once that wedding was over I shaved my head smooth without telling her..

I met her at the door with my new bald head...she was a bit shocked but liked it (I kept it smooth from that day)...

until I tried growing it out a 1 1/2 years  later for our wedding...then after 3 months of growth, she looked at me at dinner and said "you know "hair" just isn't you...you should shave it...

next day slick as a cueball and bald for our wedding...and have been that way everyday since! ;)

Great girl! O0

Can you imagine anyone asking you to grow your hair out for a wedding today?  Bet it doesn't happen as often these days since the look has become more commonplace.

Razor would argue this...but I'm not opposed to  goat..

just diggin' the "Mr. Clean action on myself...plus it's cool to see me and the little dude BOTH have the same cleft.

I guess it's a daddy thing!
