are you bald? (shaven-headed)

It's something I've been thinking about lately, shaving my head completely (my hair is getting thinner and I want to teach it a lesson!) but I don't know anything about it.

ie. what do you use? how often do you need to do it? does someone do it for you or can you do it yourself? what are the things you wish you'd known before you did it... etc

finally I'm concerned about the perception that while shaven-headed black men are apparently cool, shaven-headed white men look like mental cases. Would you agree?

Re: are you bald? (shaven-headed)

I shave my own head roughly every 2 weeks, and have been doing so for about 12 years now. Only twice have I used a razor and shaved right to the skin(it's rather uncomfortable for the first few days I find). I use an electric clipper...like the ones that the hair dressers have, I picked it up wat Wal-Mart for about $25. I don't use the clip-on combs that come with it tho, I simply use the blade, which leaves my hair at about 1/8th of an inch.

Re: are you bald? (shaven-headed)

If your hair is getting thinner then you might just want to enjoy it while you still have it.

Of course I'm not really one that should be giving advice on haircuts since I haven't had a 'proper' haircut for at least 5 years.

Actually shaving your head is pretty easy. You just have to be careful you get everything when you're doing the back. Also the hair around your crown grows in all sorts of wacky directions so you have to move the clipper around a lot up there.

The tricky part is on your neck. You know, the two strips on either side where your hair grows. You'll need to shave that bit completely with the "naked" clipper, ie take off the plastic bit. I use a mirror, though if you're doing it yourself it might get a while for you to get a hang of it.

Re: are you bald? (shaven-headed)

Shortest I ever went was a no 3 which I would do myself.

White people with shaven heads do indeed look like headcases.

Re: are you bald? (shaven-headed)

the past 2-3 months i ahve shaven my head. Bald, mohawk, you name it. I use an electric clipper, which costed me about 25 USD, then i use a razor. Use loads of soap on it, and it will get really nice. I shave it maybe 2 times a week, but thats just to keep it nice at all times, once per 2 weeks should be enough tho.

There is only one difficult part of shaving your own head, especially when you are doing a mohawk, and thats the left backside of your head. You want to use 2 mirrors for that, looking into the reflection of mirror 2 using mirror 1. Mirror 2 being behind, and mirror 1 infront of you, that is =P

This is what i looked like about 2 months ago:

Re: are you bald? (shaven-headed)

I was one of those lucky blokes that started losing my hair when I was 18. My noggin hasnt seen a comb in 20 years heh heh. So I pretty much do what Dilly does and take the clippers to it once every three weeks or so. I do use the smallest plastic clip on, because I like having bristles like my hero R. Lee Ermee. A white guy can get away with head shaving, but it just depends on who it is. Telly Savalas looked pretty odd with hair imo, the same with Yul Bryner.
