I shaved my head.

Guard #2. 6mm

Shock

I've always wanted to do it. I kept seeing people having done it.

I was bored.

I love it. But am self conscious about it also.

Very liberating.

I love it.

SegregateMumBev · 08/04/2020 20:27

We should form a gang! The cool brave shave heady bunch!

Haggisfish · 08/04/2020 20:47

Betelgeuse I just want to rub your head-it looks fab! And yours does too, segregate. And I love your beagle calendar..

Oakeyy · 08/04/2020 21:29

Looks great, really suits you and I prefer it to your long hair! Good for you going for it. Good luck with the weight loss!

Gosh this is tempting. I have very short hair dyed purple. It is white underneath ( am 56). Am so tempted to shave it right down, ds has clippers...but I work in a VERY conservative organisation, populated mostly by old ex military white males. It has taken them long enough to accept the purple hair. A buzz cut might break them. And I have a round, fat face...

Well done nice legs! My plan is to just try and make better choices daily. It's less pressure in myself than giving it a name 😂

Wow! It looks really good. Will you keep it like that?

Useryokyesno · 09/04/2020 08:09

Grin love it

Ivebeentohellanditscalledikea · 09/04/2020 08:19

I would love to do this. Already have shortish hair that's slowly growing into a mullet. I used to have a shaved head as a teenager but don't think I'd suit one now with my big fat face.

copycopypaste · 09/04/2020 08:23

Looks amazing!

userxx · 09/04/2020 08:32

Bloody hell, well done all of you shavees, you look fabulous. Just think how money will be saved on hair products.

BlueTongueSkink · 09/04/2020 10:48

Wow, those of you that have shaved, you all look great!

Beerincomechampagnetastes · 09/04/2020 10:58

Love your look op !

SpockPaperScissorsLizardRock · 09/04/2020 12:25

I finally did mine this morning. Number 8 all over and I love it!

ShavedIt · 09/04/2020 13:00

Ooh can we see Spock?

I think I will keep it like this. Especially if I'm less hefty soon!

You look great op, you have the right shape face. So tempted! Spent most of the day sweating in full PPE yesterday, I'm sure it would make me a lot cooler! But don't think it would suit me.

ShavedIt · 09/04/2020 13:32

I didn't think it would suit me either.

My face is very round but I like it. Photos need angles but they always did anyway 😂

Oh god I woke up thinking about this today...will try to pluck up courage over the weekend!!

backaftera2yearbreak · 09/04/2020 14:54

You look amazing!

SpockPaperScissorsLizardRock · 09/04/2020 15:16

It was a bit damp when I took this picture. The fringe looks better now!

I shaved my head.
Mapless · 09/04/2020 15:29

I tried the clippers last night. Number 4 guard (so maybe a 3). Only to trim though but pleased I did.

Mapless · 09/04/2020 15:31

This was the result. Just need to do my roots now...

I shaved my head.
Passwordz · 09/04/2020 15:53

So tempted, my white roots are awful at the mo and I keep thinking this is the perfect time to do it... don’t think I’m brave enough though. Think I would look fugly and not sure I’m totally ready to embrace the white/grey (am 40).

Anthilda · 09/04/2020 16:16

Cool. And very low maintenance Grin

Honkingallthewaytothebank · 09/04/2020 16:22

Wow, you look fab! Good call.
