Well, I shaved my head last night.
I wonder how long I'll have the determination to keep it going.

18. Thanks, it seems to take a bit
of getting used to though. My poor scalp is still traumatized every time I take the gillette Mach 3 to it! I'm hoping it gets used to it over time.

:hi:

Persis Khambatta, Sinead O'Connor, Demi Moore (almost) and Brittany Spears among others.

in about one week.

5. Curious
How do you do the back of your head? It seems awkward, to say the least.

9. So you use an electric razor?
If you have a minute, check this link: http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=105x6986056

It's someone telling a joke about a Scotsman. In case you don't know it, my parents are Irish and I love jokes like this. :hide:

13. Yeah, actually that is part of what triggered this,
my bald spot would sunburn--but it still had too much hair to really apply the sunblock to.

It's odd to feel the wind over my scalp as I'm walking down the hallway!

12. I shaved mine over 3 years ago
I use clippers, and buzz it once per week. Many women have told me they wish they could do the same (what's stopping them?)



No photo, but I have a self portrait in progress. Charcoal on grey paper. Not finished.
