    Why or why not?

    Nothing is worng with your head/hair, you don't have lice and it is not falling off.

    I did a couple weeks ago :) It was the most liberating experience, and it feels so natural and beautiful! Not to mention I don't have to worry about brushing my hair all day, wind, showers longer than 5 minutes, shampoo, bedhead...it's fabulous :)

    i did a few years ago, it was great, sort of like a baptism for me.
    it helped me release a lot of crap i was holding onto. i went through
    a lot of change at that time.

    however, i did hate it when it was growing back out.
    i wore hats.

    No keep your hair gals! [​IMG]

    This is the difference between hair and no hair...
    Britney Spears is an example.

    No, I wouldn't. Call me vain, but I don't think I'd look very flattering bald. :tongue:

    I think I would. It depends on where I am in my life, though. For instance, I might do it before going on an extended summer trip through different countries, or if I had plans of living in nature or on the road as it might be a pain to worry about brushing or washing my hair. Or if another female in my family was diagnosed with cancer and had to shave it before chemo, I would shave my head with them.

    As of this moment, in my current life situation I don't see myself doing it, though. I'm actually still growing my hair back from the shortest cut I've had since kindergarten, so long hair is more desirable to me right now. But who knows? I love the look of a shaved head and know it would be a liberating experience.

    And as for the Brittany Spears matter, I think she looks much better with a shaved head.

    it's just another hair style, so far as i'm concerned. you have to have the right features to carry it off really well. some women look AMAZING bald. i'd not look so good, the features are all wrong. but i prefer short hair. long hair gives me hives.

    I don't think I could do it. I'm just really attatched to my hair. And I think I would look really goofy if I did shave it all off. My hubby wants me to for some weird reason, but I couldn't bring myself to do it....my hair is like a security blanket or something. Some girls look awesome with shaved hair....I'm to scared, lol

    I think I would. I don't know how good I would look bald, but the stereotype of bald people is what would lead me to do it. Knowing a girl with cancer who's greatest fear was to lose her hair and to only be seen as that poor cancer patient instead of that strong and beautiful girl breaks my heart. I think if I were to shave my head, I would have a keen sense of empowerment. Hair doesn't make me who I am, and I could surely live a happy life w/o it.

    I really love the bald look on other women, but I couldn't do it myself. I'm really attached to my hair, the feel of it on my head and shoulders, the smell of it after I wash it, etc. If I did anything different than what I'm doing now, it would be dreads. And, that may happen someday...

    No, I can't part with my hair. I might cut it really short in one of those pixie cuts, but that's as far as that goes.
