I'm bald and started shaving my head as soon as I noticed it was thinning (19 yrs old). I like the lack of maintenance and I think I look good with a bald head. \o/

Wouldn't change it tbh.

Lack of maintenance? Don't you have to shave your head regularly?

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 week ago

Sure, but no need for combs, hair product, trips to the barber... I shave my face in the shower, and just keep going.

I’m with you but I would like the option honestly since I’ve been bald for over 30 years. Never having a bad hair day and razors being cheaper than haircuts are definitely a plus. But hitting your head on anything is almost always some sort of gash.

But damn if I don’t have dreams sometimes of running my fingers through my hair.

So true. Haired people don't realise that their haircut is a helmet.

Hey, I'm glad you can pull it off! I would look really weird with a shaved head. I would think there's still maintenance involved though. How often do you have to shave it?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 week ago

It depends how shiny you want to keep it.

I do mine every 3 days, but it's quality podcast time.

Razor blades cost pennies. So cheap.

I think 95% of people would look better bald than holding on to thinning hair. I shave daily because I like it smooooth, but it only takes a few minutes in the shower.
