Reply to comment by NetLibrarian in Bald guys by jonwritesmovies

I was a SHARP skinhead in middle school & high school (it was the 1980s, things were different then) who ultimately outgrew the scene and grew my hair out.

Only to then start to lose it fast enough to need to start shaving it, and now I'm back where I was a few decades ago: shaving my head every day.

I went the opposite direction, I was a long haired hippy kid back in my school days, kept the long hair for decades until it started coming out on its own.

Honestly though, I love the feel of having a shaved head now, and the ease and simplicity of having no hair is full of convenience. I'm amazed that headshaving isn't more common than it is.

My hippy years were in between my skinhead and bald adult years, so while brief I've experienced the highs & lows of hair.

(I still see Phish shows more often than I should admit.)

And agreed on the ease & simplicity - I'd never want to deal with having long hair again.
