Talk to me!
"He gave me the stink eye."
That's what my wife gave me last time I buzzed my hair.
Were the kids afraid just because they thought you'd shave them next?
That along with your manscaping. You are the hairless wonder.
My wife said she'd stab me if I ever did that.
I actually really like it. (The Man does bald frequently.)
Stink eh? That's bad. Very bad.
I remember getting my hair straightened and The Boy looking at me, not sure who I was.
Some guys can pull this off and some just can't. For your sake, yo're lucky you're one that can.
Kids are always resistant to change, but they'll get used to it, hopefully they don't disown you first.
For the record? I like.
One of these years -- and it will be sooner than you think -- you're going to shave your head and the hair will not grow back.
Just sayin'.
Put a warning on these posts, man! The scream that emitted from my throat upon seeing your ugly mug scared the crap out of the cat.
With that head your shirt should read, "I Rather Be Swimming"
Nice look. A little shorter than mine. Easy to maintain!
Phil- Perhaps, but they actually have hair worth keeping.
DCUrbanDad- I'm like a naked mole-rat.
Avitable- That's the line with her?
Nat- Finally, a voice of reason.
Amelia- I'm above such things. I'm also way too handsome to be thrown in with that crowd.
Sam- That's because you have excellent taste.
RTK- It's already growing on my back.
Matthew- Hey, someone at you IP address has been looking at that post for two hours. Do you have a dog?
James- I'm saving proof of purchases for my Phelps shirt.
Well, just shows how much the boys know... I think it looks great!
DutchBitch- There's no accounting for taste.
You forgot that little thing under your lip, apparently. What IS that??
I think it looks great....obviously.
New Age Bitch- That's a soul patch. I've got soul, but I'm not a soldier...
VegasDad- You're a pioneer!
Dude, that's not bald. Did you see my video when I shaved MY head last month? All the way, baby, Mr. Clean.
Course, it's grown back now, but still.
What you need to do is shave the kids' heads when they're sleeping. That'll show 'em. And get them prepped for a lifetime of therapy.
Shaved heads = hawt.
I like the bald head, but the ""Say something cute & I'll bust your jaw" expression is better.
Karl- I did the totally bald thing last summer (see links), but I didn't like the ingrown hairs when it grew back (healthier and fuller than ever).
Sizzle- hawt comments = always welcome
BHJ- I kind of look like a jawbreaker...
Yup - you'd think we would have crossed that line long, long ago, wouldn't you?
Ah! Self-styling as a parent can be so cathartic, but come on, let your creative juices flow.
I went flame red with streaks of black in the suburbs. The least you could do was add some blue. I bet the stink eye would go away if you looked like Papa Smurf.
You totally could pull it off and you could cut it off, if it didn't suit you.
Dude, you work from home. Do it! Do it! I want to see some co-lah!
You were able to pull the trigger. Says a lot about your personality. Way to throw caution to the wind.
Avitable- She must be a wonderful woman.
Scout's Honor- I went with a mohawk originally, but my hair is a little thin in front and I looked like a sick rooster.
James- That's good, right?
Ha! Love the imagery. Sick rooster. snarfle. Still looks good.
Nah, I like it! It's very skinhead chic
The question is, did Tricia point, laugh and give you the stink eye?????
No stink eye from this way ... bald IS beautiful and no bad hair days!
"wondered which one's Pink."
Awesome. Totally awesome. Hopefully you didn't have a "One of My Turns" episode afterwards.
I wish I had the balls to shave my head, but the giant dent and my eagle sized nose have convinced me not too. I think you made the right choice.
I usually get a haircut once every three or four years--whether I need it or not. I'm not due for another year so I'm sticking with nappy.
I think you could have gotten closer--just saying.
I have a very disturbed friend from High School... and hem... you look like him with your fresh new look.
I would have to agree with Zane but it's based on the disturbed dude.
Disturbed in Canada
If it had actually gotten hot here this summer I would have done the same thing. It was 47 this morning. Oy.
The (lack of) hair works for you but for some reason I don't believe the t-shirt.
Bald is beautiful, my friend. Embrace the bald. BE THE BALD.
As my mom used to tell me, those kids are just jealous.
The last time my hubs shaved his head I burst out laughing and couldn't stop.
Funny, I didn't get laid that night. Wonder if there was a correlation.
Hmmm.
However, on you, I'd never laugh.
At least, not to your face.
Dude, who doesn't like a good buzz early in the morning?
Scout's Honor- definitely not Foster Farms
flutter- skinhead is the new hair
tt- when didn't she?
Nancy- I have bad hairless days
clll- yes, a Pink Floyd fan!
Writer Dad- I was pleasantly surprised that my head is in pretty good shape, on the outside that is
Ed- click the link, I've tried it
David R- I've only been to Canada once and it wasn't for high school, it was disturbing though
Jeff- balmy
motherbumper- it's true, I'd rather be jogging than have kids point and laugh at me
Jay- it's easier to embrace when it's a choice
Jason- or just cruel
Redneck Mommy- that's sweet, I hope you get laid now
Papa Bradstein- mmm, bloody marys
Dude, you shaved your head? Talk to me when you have WAXED it. Cause that is truly hardcore.
Bald better be beautiful or I'm screwed.
Dude, looks cool!
I love the short hair cause I can be ready in like 5 minutes...
Gives me more time to hide the checkbook before me and the wife goes places.
Kelley- How about Nair, is that tough enough?
Kapgar- I was hoping to get screwed because it was beautiful
Slick- Good luck on that one!
Nair is for pussies. Wax it and youtube it, you will become a God.
I detoured to your site after your hilarious post on Redneck Mommy's blog. Based on my predilection for shaved heads, my husband would not be pleased to find me here.
Eh, screw him. I sat through an entire night of women's beach volleyball on the Olympics, didn't I? I can hardly be begrudged a little daddy-blogger-ogling just this once.
Kelley- Putting Nair on a pussy can't feel good either.
Binky- I'd vote for the women's beach volleyball, but thanks for coming by. Your husband will never know.
Those are some funny kids.
Holmes- Atticus wanted me to wear a hat when I walked him to school so I wouldn't "embarrass everybody." What's up with that?
The shaved head works for you. But if I think if my husband ever shaved his head, I'd give him the stink eye. (I've always thought stink eye sounds more like a slang term for the brown eye than a term for a dirty look. but it is amusing.)
Shamelessly Sassy- my wife wasn't thrilled, but it's grown on her. Stink eye is just fun to say.
Nice. I do this at least once a year too...it's so fricking liberating.
On me? Not flattering, but liberating. And freedom is all that matters.
I get severe anxiety whenever I buzz my head. My dad used to force me to do it now and again before it became "cool." I had an enormous Charlie Brown head when I was a little kid.
This post truly haunted me. And I will never be the same. Hang in there, Whit.
Kevin- You're married now, let yourself go (more so).
Christopher- I'm sorry. I had no idea.
duuuuuuuuuude. you seem to pull it off well. I am getting quite sparse up top. I will not treat it with chemicals, but I also don't know if I have the noggin for shaving. I need to get ball caps accepted as a part of business casual dress codes across the land I guess.
