    I may shave my head, having hair is a pain in the *kitten*.

    My advice (from a previously-buzzcut female) is not to shave your head. Personally, I find a completely shaved head rather disconcerting. Very short buzzcuts are much less extreme. Just my two cents, though, to each their own :)


    Booo !! We are not disconcerting ! ;-)

    I shave every day, sometimes twice a day, if I am going out. Been doing it for 30 years. I put a mirror in my shower. Takes about 2 minutes. It's like any other habit.

    2 Minutes is a small investment to be this pretty.

    This makes me glad that hair loss is not in my family genes. Besides, I've been in enough accidents and a few fights when I was younger. My bald head would probably look like a Topographic map.

    If you haven't been shaving it long....it gets easier and quicker.. You'll be able to do it by feel alone

    For me, I just use a fusion,....adds only a couple of minutes to my morning routine..

    My paternal grandmother was prone to (benign) cysts on her head. As she got older her hair started to thin dramatically. Her head looked like a relief map of the Andes.

    Rogsman does the exact same thing I do.

    I've been shaving my head for about 14 years. While it seems like it may be tedious, you are really saving yourself a lot of time. It takes me 10 minutes every other day, and that is all of the time I ever have to invest. No hair care products, no barber shops, and no primping in front of the mirror throughout the day...

    No way is this approach time-saving...not compared to my previous routine which was to buzz/#1/#2 guard it every 4-6 weeks. In between, I did absolutely nothing to it...at all.

    That said, I prefer the completely shaved look.

    (And did someone actually have a post removed from this thread while I was gone? Wow...I never would have expected this thread to be that controversial.)

    And thanks to everyone for the tips. I think I'll try the mirror in the shower approach.

    Oh, and yeah, I have plenty of scars and my head is giant/weirdly square-shaped, but meh, whatever. :drinker:
