Shaved head

Well basically I was thinking of shaving my head completely. But before carrying out such a drastic transformation, I was wondering did anyone else here go hairless? And if so did you regret it after etc. And also; I'm not quite sure if it would suit my face or not;

Here 's a pic of my face. [old hair]

Thank you!

I think you would look just fine with a shaved head

From the time i was 9 until about 15 I kept my hair fairly shaved. The only problem was that it used to get very cold in the mornings, so I had to wear more than one skull cap when going to school. Going hairless on top has it's high points though. Girls dig a baldy

You might look better with a buzz cut instead though, but that's just from glancing at your picture.

have you ever had your hair really short? Cuz if not then you may have a lumpier head than you know and those are not so attractive

Thank you both for the advice. I probably wouldnt want to go for a buzz cut though because the whole attraction of going shaved for me would be the statement that's in it. Like it's pretty unique these days to go completely skinhead.

And yes solumna! I have had it quite short many times before. Actually, my hair's just been growing out a mohawk the past while.

My head is always shaved.

However, my advice is; always shave it in the shower, the water actually helps lubricate your scalp while you shave it. Use those flexiable disposible blades.
I advise against using shaving cream, it will make your scalp feel tight, dry and become flakey.

If you want to maintain it, keep shaving it every two or three days (not everyday, it's too much for the scalp).

Undercut instead, perhaps? I'd not in good conscience suggest you remove all your hair.

I don't think having a shaved head would suit you. That's just in my opinion though. If you wanna do it, do it...if you don't like it, meh!, hair grows.

if you do it I suggest using conditioner instead of any kind of shave gel. Your scalp has very sensitive skin that needs lots of moisture. You can pick up a cheap bottle. I recommended Vo5 (makes my legs extra soft and smooth) which you can pick up for about $1.50 for a 15 oz bottle

I think you might look okay shaved, but I also think your hair accents your pretty face.

My first impulse is to say go for it. I've been considering this as well.

You have gorgeous hair right now, though..
