#1 Behold The Balding (warning: not for 56k)

Post by Comrade Tortoise »

Well, our friend The Village idiot decided, because he is such a nice guy, to lend support to his Girlfriend Erin who is undergoing chemotherapy, to shave himself bald.

So behold, the photos of TVI before, during and after The Balding. Please feel free to congratulate him on his niceness, or mock him. At your liesure.

Can't spot the Tortoise, but Frigid looks like I expected him to look.

You have to look in the mirror behind him in a couple of the photos. You can see my reflection as I take the shot.

Hunh, I honestly associated Frigid with his avatar. It's one of those cases where the person transcends the image. Same thing happened with CC and his old Dooku av.

Way to go, VI. That's classy, and it looks good on you to boot.

Got to agree with the Texan chainsaw killer. A nice thing to do and it looks good on him.

Yeah, heh, that's the good thing about nicking yourself while shaving your head, you have no fucking nerves there, just padding on your scalp.

It is a much cooler hairstyle for the hot areas, Hell, I kept myself pretty much bald all of last year, and most of this year ( I flirted with having hair again for about two weeks in June....).


Only problem is the constant upkeep needed for it, have to reshave every few days.

My problem is that my hair grow so quickly that I need to visit the barber every three days to keep it consistently bald.

Thats why you have to do it yourself as we have said above. And I have to shave it every day to keep bald, I even get a 5 o'clock shadow on my head!

Hmm...I shaved my head back in the fall of '01, kept it for a month or two, then let it grow back. I have flirted with shaving it since then. I think I'll dye my hair red with Kool-aid, and depending on how that works out, shave it or not.

Congradulations, it looks good I you.

I know how you feel, I shaved my head bald almost 2 years ago now.
And it felt really weird at first, but you'll enjoy it - I know I did...

I think it was a very noble thing for you to do...

plus...

damn that looks good!

I hope your girl can appreciate the man she is with.
There is a really good chance that I am seriously fucked up. But don't worry....I like me that way.

Update:

We have since broken up, a very long and damn depressing story. I miss her a lot and I could say I could have loved her, but I digress...

As for her... After battles since described in old venting threads, the cancer has spread. Last I heard it was in the kidneys, liver, brain, and a few other random spots. She is currently somewhere back east at a cancer specialists hospital. I hope she does well, but It doesn't look good.

Thank you all again for the support and everything. But I am back to my old hair cut, and looking better myself. At least a lot better then in the pre-bald pics. And I have moved on, although have yet to find another date :sad: ... oh well, thanks again guys.
