How many of you guys shave your heads?

I've been shaving my head since I was maybe 19 , I'm 38 now. I hate messing with hair like a prettyboy (no offense to you hairheads out there :D )
A lot of chicks love it and the ones that dont are usually high maintenance so who cares lol. I'm told I look mean but I'm a nice guy once you get past the stubble , anyways it keeps people from messin with me.
I use a set of Oster clippers , cost me about 20 bones , had em for years , clean and oil after each shave and they last for years , imaine how much money you save on haircuts (more $$ for knives and gadgets :D ).
I shave it bald every so often , in the shower with a camping mirror , soap and hot water.

I get a real close buzz during wrestling season, I don't actually shave it. I think that a shaved head makes you look more intimidating, and it makes you look bigger (makes your head smaller). Some guys with long hair have to wear skull caps while they wrestle, which looks real lame.
 
Sort of like Sonar LMAO! :D

Been shaving my head with electric clippers with no attachment. Its about as close as a down to the wood with a Mach3 5 days later.

In summer its heaven, out of the shower at night and your head hits that cool pillow :)

Winter is a bit tougher, especially if you are outside a lot, but still not worth letting it grow back for.

If you have a good head shape, its great. If you look like Mr. Pumpin head, you may want to reconsider :D

A what? :confused:
 
Shaved- Bald, kind of have to.
Mach 3- Why use anything but the best?
HeadSlick- shaving gel from the Headblade company, BEST EVER!
HeadBlade- Mediocre performance, good idea, needs to use Mach 3 blades, and be bigger for my ham hands to hold onto.

Camping mirror , it's probably called something else , let me see what i can find. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=16042&item=5179945331&rd=1
Thats about the closest although it's not what I use. The ones I have are about 2.5 X 3.5 inches , they come in opaque plastic 'sheaths'. I put duct tape on the back of it in case I drop it , I have had them both for years and have no idea where I even got them and I cant find an example on ebay..
One I have in front of me has a bridal store's name on the sheath like it was a freebie gift or something. At any rate they are compact and work good :)
 
I stopped shaving my head last summer when I messed up somehow and took off half my scalp. Ok it wasn't half, but it was a good CM piece of skin. I still have no idea how that happened. Luckily it wasn't deep enough so that I was left with a bald spot once I grew my hair back for winter. Right now I'm sporting about 4 inches of hair, about to go shave it since spring is here (KIND OF!! damn rain!), going to use my Wahl clippers, then my Norelco.
 
When I was 18 I started getting my head shaved, Been doing it for 1.5 years now.

I spent $20 on a Remington Titanium clipper. #1 clip every week or so. Never had it shorter than that.

Edit - I do keep a goatee a little longer though. It's more out of being too lazy to shave my chin than anythign else at this point.

Thanks. I might bid on that.
I'm on about my 5th "fog-proof" mirror. They're never ACTUALLY fog-proof and they're WORSE once they get some hard-water spots on them. Suction cups are a JOKE in the shower! A couple times a year I walk around my home with a weapon in the middle of the night because I heard something and it's always my mirror falling off the wall into the tub. Some day a guy will be putting my DVD player in a sack and I'll be in the bathroom shining a flashlight at the mirror on the wall in the shower wondering what's going on. :rolleyes:

Someday I'll find a mirror I can use in the shower. I'll try anything at this point.
 
FoL, I found a nice "fog proof" mirror at Target, it's about 5x5 inches, and is just a really shiny chunk of chrome rather than glass. It's got massive suction cups on each corner and hasn't fallen down off the granite shower surface I have it suctioned to. It also works great as a mirror, I splash a little water on it just before I shave and it stays clear all the way through. Best $9 I ever spent.

It's similar to this one: http://www.creativespacesusa.com/index.asp?PageAction=VIEWPROD&ProdID=507
 
I just cut mine with electric clippers with no guard--basically as short as you can get it without shaving. Shaving just seems like too much hassle to me.
 
I got a Shick Quattro today. Works really well. It has 4 blades and has tiny wires that run vertically over the blades that acts as like a cage to keep the blades from cutting or scraping your noggin. This evening was the first blood-free head shave I've ever done. :D
 
I kept my head shaved down to the skin for 6 months. Blades just pulled too much for my taste, shaving was easy and convenient for me using my electric Remington Micro Screen II.

This alone is worth shaving the noggin' for. Gentlemen, if you ever need a reason to, do it for this just once in your life. :)
