Okay I am not guilty of any crime. be it here on myLot or in the real world. As you can tell by the attatched photo I shaved my head free of my long locks. I just got tired of all the shampooing and conditioning it took. I guess I really am "that" lazy. Hahahaha! But I do this ever so often. Just me I suppose. I get tired of my hair then shave it all off. What a time to do this though with the winter and below zero temps approaching. HAHAHA! Need a new hat now too. So what do you think?

You got a + from me that's for sure. I am being very honest when I read your post I thought "Oh Good Grief" but this really does look good. I have always thought it generous of people shaving their heads for cancer and various charities but I have never thought it looked good. Not everyone can do this sort of thing and still look good but now I know it is possible. Take Care my friend.

I am very olive skin toned so I do not burn. I've had no hair before in the summer and no sunburn. But look at my avatar. When it's hot I wear a bandana to keep the sweat from dripping in my eyes so no burn due to that bandana. Hee hee. HAHAHAHA!

My friend says if we would shave girls' heads, as we do men and boys, women would have thicker, fuller hair. When a guy shaves his head it always comes back better. It will grow back and keep you warm in time for winter. Until it does you can sport a variety of different hats, depending on your mood. I would like to see that. Have lots of fun today.

Hi Grandpa Bob,
I like your new look, but I also think the old one's good as well. You look so different, going from the long to the shaved style. It's nice to know you can pull something like this off, as some wouldn't be able to. What type of hats do you like to wear?

Thanks. Well the hats now huh? Okay in the winter time I only wear a stocking cap. In the suummer I only wear a couple different baseball caps and that's only when I go to the car races. I have one felt derby. Everyone in my family calls it "my old man" hat. That's it. I don't wear a lot of hats actually.

I really like different types of hats, on others. The derby sounds quite cool. Somehow, I can picture you in a cowboy hat, Grandpa Bob, which is one of my favourite types of hat.:)

Hey, its cool to shave your head. I mean, if Andre Agassi can go from flowing locks to shaved pate the next day, who are we not to follow in such illustrious footsteps? And besides, Agassi became a much better players after he shaved his head - not that I think the shaving of his head any real effectt on his tennis playing;)

It's not shaved just cut as low as I can cut it. last year I tried shaving my head. It's way too much work to keep it shiny clean. I like the look but I am not going through all that work again.

Yeah it costs twenty (20) dollars for a
haircut here in the States. Too much for me.

I think it suits you. My husband shaves his head too but he leaves a little bit up top. He was in the marines so he still has that haircut. He always has people asking him if he is a marine or a police officer because of the way his hair is cut. LOL

Wow--- that is quite the change- Usually people get hair cuts in the spring- for the upcoming hot weather- : ) I’m the same way though- I will let mine grow until it bothers me- and then get it cut short again- Doesn’t matter to me what season it is- Good for you!

I love it Grandpa Bob, but aren't you supposed to shave your head in the summertime to keep cool and grow it out in the wintertime to keep you warm, perhaps I have it backwards.
Be well, my friend!

Hello!
Another *yikes* grandpa bob! LOL! when I read your post I chuckled..*hihihi* because my brother did the same as well..I was shocked when I saw him this morning...bald and shiny head! LOL! well, his reason is he's having HIV [hair is vanishing] syndrome! LOL! so better shave it completely plus no need to spend on shampoo and conditioner. Wish I could attach his photo, but I can't.
Anyways, you look great grandpa bob! what a change...it looks good on you actually. SO what did grandma bob say about it? *hehehe*
New look but the same charming grandpa bob!!
Thanks for sharing...enjoy your new hair...ooppss..new head..oopppss again...new look! LOL! *wehehe*

well i think it looks great,its always nice to have changes and hair always grows back if you dont like it.i think it makes you look younger and more hip.even though you shaved your head and your tired of shampooing it,make sure you still condition your scalp or it will get dried out and flake,im a hairdresser for 15 years,and i have a few friends that shave their heads and they dont do nothing to their scalps and wonder why their scalps are so dry.but it does look great and with the bandananas even cooler.pattie
