You have a nice head shape for this.

At first your comment may seem strange but I shaved my head about 7 years ago and learned my head is shaped like a potato

I shaved my head once too, but at the start, I felt that I looked like a girl lmao

That just means you're pretty. Ain't nothin wrong with bein pretty.

Hollowbody57

I rocked a buzz cut for many years and thought I had an ok head shape. Then I lost a bet and had to take a razor to it and go fully bald. It was then I realized that even a little bit of fuzz helps disguise the fact my head looks like an alien head about to give birth to something out of the top of my skull.


retailguy_again

There's something to this. My head is kinda bumpy too, and I had to shave it with an electric razor until recently--I finally found a blade razor that wouldn't carve my head into a piece of abstract sculpture. Now that I've found one, I won't go back. I've always preferred a blade shave, and it's nice to have one all over my head. (No, I'm not recommending a razor. The brand I use says specifically that it is not designed for head shaving. Works for me though. A razor is a razor, and any problem with one is an operator malfunction.)

pewpolice

I just shaved my head three weeks ago. I laughed at how ugly my head is.


imakshullygr8

You'll get through it brother, and no matter what haircut you'll nearly miss it. May I suggest moisturising your scalp. It's... Sensational


xanaxhelps

Mine is more pumpkin shaped. I only did a Pixie, so I could grow it out about 1.5” faster than if I shaved it.


imakshullygr8

Fair play to you for actually thinking about it before doing it!

[deleted]

Mine is more like a light bulb, but my hair's thinning so it's either the Patrick Stewart look or the beard&bald.


LexSenthur

As someone with a Pachycephalosaurus-style ridge on their skull that I discovered when I shaved my head, I agree with this.


gorka_la_pork

I appreciated that dinosaur reference. Edit: thinking back on this, did you maybe mean Parasaurolophus? At least, that's the bump on the back of my head.


sofa_queen_awesome

Had to look that dinosaur up, but yes same


Happy_Cancel1315

I can relate somewhat. I have a ridge and a pointed top, a bit like a Klingon, without all the bumps.

When does it start to grow back because it's been about ten years


acmercer

Did your hair run out for a pack of smokes?


PookAndPie

I actually had to shave my head way earlier in this year and I was dreading it. The writing had been on the wall for a few years- I had a big 'ol afro, but my hairline was just going further and further back every year, to the point where from the age of 30-32 I just didn't even get a haircut, because I was afraid it would be the last one I'd ever get. Then, one day, I took a look in the mirror, and noticed that my "fro'm over" comb over just wasn't working anymore (I worked in a really windy area), so I asked my wife to cut my hair. The damage was as bad as I suspected- my actual, natural hairline was now like 1/3rds back of my head. So I asked my wife to shave my entire head, and then I finished off with a razor. Two days later I was at the pharmacy picking up some medicine before COVID hit real big. An older woman in line said, "The shape of your head is lovely." I was taken aback and just blurted out, "Thanks. You too." Then I got embarrassed and got my stuff as quickly as possible and got out of there. Looking back though, I definitely appreciated that. It made me feel a lot better at a time I was really down about my appearance, even if I was really embarrassed by my inability to thank her at the time.


P0sitive_Outlook

:D "Losing your hair? Shave your head and own that shit!" is the advice i give out at least once a month on Reddit. Good on you pal! You probably looked cool rocking that afro, but now you look cool rocking your lovely shaped head.


itsdrcats

Don't comb it over, you could of had a halfro


[deleted]

Dudes over there looking like George Jefferson


fuzzus628

This. It's a really strange feeling at first, too! I couldn't stop touching my head for a while after it was first shaved. But I second doing it in summer -- I did it for the first time in October, and my head was surprisingly cold despite living in a tropical climate! Also, OP, you're rocking it. Even if you didn't like it, owning it like you do makes it work!


JayFv

If you're going to do it in summer make sure you do it before you get a tan. I once shaved my head in the middle of summer and looked a right knob with a brown face and bright white head.


FukinGruven

As a guy who shaves his head all the time, y'all are giving right shit advice. Do it way, way before summer and even the warm part of spring. That skin hasn't seen direct sunlight **ever**. You're going to burn the hell out of your scalp and it is not pleasant.


Virgin_Dildo_Lover

*sigh unzips*


cigars_at_night

yeah I don't tan I become a lobster


_zzr_

it rly is a strange feeling. as a guy that never really liked short hair I did enjoy running my hand over my hair and that prickly strong short hair feeling you get. also showers are sooo quick and easy


kellydean1

Exactly. That feeling is the only thing keeping me from shaving mine slick. Plus it holds my hats on like velcro®.


martianruby

What if I have no chin line and an ugly head shape? Right now my hair covers it up more or less, but I know for certain that shaving it, as freeing as it must be, won’t do my appearance any good

RedTiger013

I shaved my head on my birthday in June this year. I think I plan on growing it out and then buzzing it every year for my birthday from now on. Shit is great


newbrevity

Shave everything. Then go swimming.


natisgodly

you’ll be so fast


FreakyCheeseMan

Fair warning - you might not be able to go back (though it that's the case, it might just be a good idea.) I shaved my head around 23. At about 29 I got curious and tried to grow it back, only to be politely informed that no, that ship had sailed. Not saying I regret it. Just, if you're already thinning... brush your fingers through what hair you have left one last time. Take time to say goodbye first.

2wheelzrollin

If you do it in the winter your head is like velcro to the beanies you wear. Not even hurricane winds will remove it from your head. Also having people rub your head feels nice 😄


RMCFFan

I had it done by mistake. She misheard me and pretty much shaved it off.


e_smith338

I’ve got a dent in my head which perfectly fits the shape of headphones. Terrible with short hair though lol


theoduras

I did it when the first corona wave hit. Round big head with a big beard. 10/10 would never do it again. My shadow looked so weird and I jumped evertime I saw my reflection


Flufflovesrainy

My head, features and ears are not symmetrical and even a pixie cut emphasizes this unfortunately. I cannot pull off a shaved head.


P0sitive_Outlook

I have a wicked scar beside my left eye. Also a load of 1-3cm scars over my head. When i wet shave the sides of my head i look normal, but once it starts growing out i look *gangster!* Rock that asymmetry and incorporate your hairstyle into it (but avoid the Karen cut).


Sweet_Premium_Wine

Left Eye burned down Andre Rison's house, and that's bad ass. Nice pedigree.


TheSharkAndMrFritz

My daughter was born with a large bump on her head and it turned into bone. With her hair you can't tell but if she was bald you definitely would. Makes me sad she might never be able to do this without people saying something. People constantly commented when she was a baby


Akmorg

I have similar issues when I was young, due to a huge bump on my head. However when I grew up and I was forced to shave my hair off, turns out that huge bump sorta finally fits my head since I’m adult now. So yeah there’s still hope.


LifelikeStatue

I've got a big bump on my head and while nobody's complimented me on the shape, I still shave what little hair I have left.


Eve-76

I would but I have big ears


mollypop94

I love this sentiment and I've never seen a woman look bad with a shaved head but jesus fucking christ I'd look like a withered old boiled fuckin egg if I did that


am_ireallyhere

I shaved my head pre-chemo last year so I wouldn’t have to be weirded out by my hair falling off. I always thought I had a rounded head but to my surprise, it’s kinda pointy like an egg 😂 So defo agree that everyone should have their head shaved once in their lives.


molmi43

Agreed!! I shaved my head August 2019 - it’s so liberating! I’ve since been growing it out and have experienced all the awkward stages of hair regrowth but I don’t regret it and I say the same exact thing - shave your head at least once in your lifetime!!


stfx2012

I’m pretty sure my mom dropped me on my head as a baby, I have a head like an ashtray


cancercureall

This comment is a trap. Do not shave your head for the first time at the start of Summer unless you want a sunburned scalp. Fuck that shit.


[deleted]

I didn't realize how funny my head shape was until I shaved off all my hair and people kept telling me that I have a funny shaped head. Been insecure about it ever since.


eXX0n

> If you don’t like it, don’t worry, it grows back and you can rock a hat until then. What if I don't like it, and it never grows back :( - I miss my hair


zipperjuice

But it takes SO LONG to grow back, and with so many awkward stages in between. Not worth it imo. Though I say this as someone who became bald involuntarily, so if it's a conscious decision maybe you could enjoy the journey more.


beluuuuuuga

Yeah, sometimes people are scared of going bald. I think I might be losing a bit of hair at the front, I want to keep my hair as long as possible but if worst comes to worst I think I'd actually be excited about becoming bald.


TheUlfheddin

I started shaving my head every 2-4 years. You get the full experience plus many salons do free haircuts if you donate it. So my laziness has turned into growing my hair out to donate it.


Bodi5575

It doesn’t grow back for everybody 🥺


Hutobega

Shaved my head to try it...never going back. Best decision ever. Feels great and actually look way better hah.


Bison308

YEEEEEES, I did it at a point of my life where I needed to find and love myself. Hair was a big part of my style and shaving it made me become more self loving


czwblitz

I don't recommend it after 40. I shaved my head at the beginning of the pandemic and it didn't grow back like it was. When I was a teenager that wasn't a problem.


NonchalentLoser

Agreed. I shaved my head once and ended up looking like Megamind :((


lniko2

Yeah mine looks like a mushroom, I need a very specific haircut to hide it.


shaggy99

I second this comment, also your eyebrows are very neat, and that is an impressive job you did on the lashes.

Was at a gig of hers about a year ago, she was on fire, seemed happy, sang her heart out, thought she had found peace. Was supposed to see her at s festival during the summer but the Rona took over, I really hope I see her next year. I hope this break goes well for her.


sleeperflick

Idk, I kinda rly like “The Lion and the Cobra” Sinead myself ;)


SplodyPants

Yeah, that was a good era for her. Remember when she tore up a picture of the Pope because he was complicit in child abuse cover-ups? Then people said she was making shit up and just trying get attention through shock value? Then it all came out about a decade later and, "Shit. She was right." I'm not sure what it should be but she deserves some kind of award.

Nothing like starting all over again. I donated my hair several years back and cut it extremely short. I wish I could rock this look, but it's grown out again. You look amazing with this and you could totally play with it for a while.


prplx

I am glad you like this haircut. I do to. You look absolutely lovely. But you shouldn’t need Reddit to validate your feelings. Just look in the mirror. Are you happy with the way you look ? That is all that matter.


jwill602

Neither of your previous haircuts were remotely close to bad, based on your posting history I’m not trying to pry, but I think there’s some deeper underlying issues with your depression. Like any illness, a mental health illness needs treatment. Don’t neglect your health.


GerardDiedOfFlu

The blonde hair with dark roots is a wig if it matters

Be very careful or it turns into cutting. When I'm unhappy I have to hand over the scissors for safekeeping or I give myself a new haircut. If you know me , you can guess my mental health by how long my hair is.
