Why Have A Shaved Head

Unless it's obvious that a person is affiliated with some group whose members all have a shaved head, i.e. "skinheads", many people wonder why anyone, especially a female, would want a shaved head.

After extensive research, the following information is a short synopsis of the main reasons why a shaved head is chosen by some males and females:

The #1 reason most cited for a shaved head is because it's so easy to take care of. And all the money saved on hair care products from combs and brushes to shampoos, conditioners, styling products and tools, such as blow dryers or curling irons.

#2 Many people have found relief from dandruff and itchy scalps with a shaved head.

#3 People of both sexes say they and their partners really enjoy the feel and look of a shaved head - It's very sexy. And it turns out that the entire scalp is an erogenous zone, once it's bald.

#4 During the hot months, a shaved head stays cool. And during the cold months, one can wear a hat of any type and not have to worry about messing up their hair style.

#5 For males who are anxious about thinning hair or balding, a shaved head just gets it over with and makes the most of it.

#6 In recent years, more females have a shaved head and it's seen as fashionable. Models on runways have shaved heads. Today, everyday females with a shaved head are seen as courageous, or at least interesting.

#7 Some people just enjoy doing things that are different, and a shaved head is something new to try.

#8 There are still people who choose a shaved head as a symbol or to make a statement, although this is no longer assumed about all people just because they shave their head.

#9 Then there are the younger people who often choose a shaved head as an act of frustration and rebellion against authority/the establishment.

Whatever reason why you may have a shaved head, there are a few things you need to keep in mind:

#1 Don't forget that you no longer have any head hair to protect your scalp from the sun. Be sure to wear a hat if you're going to spend a good deal of time outdoors. Your shaved head will get sun burned.

#2 Don't be surprised or angered by others who still have old attitudes about anyone with a shaved head. Just smile and you'll totally disarm them, one way or the other. They'll either decide you're really crazy and leave you alone, or they'll start talking with you.

#3 If you want to keep your shaved head smooth, you're going to need to shave pretty often, several times a week. It depends on how fast your hair grows.

#4 Remember that your scalp is skin and it will need nurturing with moisture. A great natural remedy for dry skin is Tea Tree oil. It not only deeply conditions your shaved head, but it's also an astringent, which will deter irritations. And - It will make your scalp shine!

So now you have the inside information about why some people choose a shaved head and even a few tips about how to take care of one if that's what you choose.
