Two thousand six was the year I took stock of my not-so-flowing locks and dispensed with them. I made the move right before Thanksgiving, surprising most of my relatives and friends with a totally bald head.
“So, what happened to your hair, Mark?” my neighbors would call. “You lose a bet?”
I chuckled along with everyone else. I looked so different that people who have known me for years would basically trip over me before recognizing me. Still, I decided the bald-with-goatee look wasn’t for me. Now the goatee is gone and the hair is staying short, but not shaved.
I think its a good look. I don’t know if I’ll keep it, but my hair isn’t getting any thicker nowadays. Time will tell.
dude,
I think the shaved head looks fantastic! Very stylish and cool. Keep it!

Thanks, Scott. I’m definitely leaning that way. It sure is easy to maintain, that’s for sure!
Having it too short made my head cold, though. I never appreciated what difference a few millimeters of hair make!
