Hey:)

So I'm thinking about shaving 1/4 of half my head.....I know it may not make sense but it looks really cute. My problem is this, if anyone here has shaved their head, how do you maintain it?? How often/how do you cut it?? And I also have a perm, will I still be able to perm this section, or will it be all naps??

    If that is what you are in to doing that is up to you. I shave my hubbys hair about once every 4 weeks but I could do with doing it every week and a half to 2 weeks.

    my cousin (17) does that. she got it done every few months and she was able to hide it from her parents for about 8 months, so you definitely still can do your hair like normal if you have an important event to go to or want something different. she doesnt do perms, but she does curl it.

    Like this? I think it's cute, but I know I couldn't pull it off.

    Okay, seriously?! Ever image I post pops up that it's been moved or deleted. Grr!

    my friend has part of hers shaved, it looks good.
    i dont know about maintaining it though, I imagine you just keep shaving it down.
    i've actually thought about doing the same thing too but my work wouldn't allow it :(

    If you shave it down really tight- you won't be able to relax it the way you want. Most salons don't want the relaxer that close to the scalp. But if you do it yourself you can buy the stuff at Sally's Beauty Supply and just touch up spots that get too course or wavy or curly for your taste. Good luck!

    Yeah, I'd say you'd need a razor set to the same length every time to make sure it stays short.

    If you want it, go for it. I think it would look great, but no opinion matters more than your own.
  • I've had an undercut. Upkeep is pretty much a good friend and a hair clipper, I have no idea about perms though.

    No idea how to keep it up or anything, just thought that I think it looks really awesome and I encourage your decision :)

    shaved head = not. cute.

    Only 1/4 of it = Even less cute.


    Trust me, I see plenty of partially shaved heads at work post-op brain surgery.. Don't do it.

    Wait a minute! WAIT A MINUTE HERE!!!!

    Are you really shaving 1/4 fourth of one half of your head? You do realize, and correct me please if i am wrong but that is one eighth of your head.

    not one half of your head. not one fourth of your head but one eighth. I'm not trying to be a jerk I just want to make sure I understand just how much of your head because one eight of a haircut...sounds pretty darn cool.

    Sorry - a little confused here. If it is shaved, then there is no hair. How can you have a perm there? Do you just want it very short? Will you be doing it yourself or having it done/maintained at a hair salon/barber (BTW, barbers are usually better for clipped or shaved heads than salons).

    ETA: foilks, she was not asking whether you liked it or not
