@StudChud My three big concerns with getting a full shave are how it will look, how work will react, and random dickheads. That, and it's getting a bit chilly this time of the year.
How did people at your work react to the shave?
And did you get many randos making comments about it?
I had one meth head say I should smile more, but I think that was unrelated to my hair, (told him to get fucked).
People at work asked why, but that was early 2010s. When I've done it more recently, I just had colleagues/bosses say they liked it and it suited me ๐คทโโ๏ธ so no negativity when I've done it.
If you do it this time of year, have a scarf and you can hoist it up to keep your scalp warm, or a beanie. I tend to do a big cut or shave at the start of summer.
@StudChud That's really reassuring ๐
Yeah, I think I'll wait until the start of Summer, and then potentially go for a big shave ๐ช
