The bald look just doesn't work for some women

[BikeWriter]

Maybe Demi...

[Lilli]

1. Didnt for me

when I had chemo...I have a warm winter robe in grey, and when I was bald I looked like Uncle Fester. :D

Looking much better these days. :)

[BikeWriter]

3. Hey, that's great, Lilli! Here's to your recovery!

[Lilli]

11. thankie!

:)

5. When my mom had chemo, she looked like my grandpa.

We teased her about it. She had a good sense of humor through it all. Especially when the morphine kicked in.

[Lilli]

13. LOL - Poor mom!

The only Morphine I like is the band...the drug makes me feel awful :)

[BikeWriter]

15. Way cool! My Dad refused the morphine to the end...

Mom was afraid he'd become addicted. :-(

[Lilli]

21. at that point I wouldnt worry about addiction :(

but the stuff drys me out and makes me nauseous

[BikeWriter]

24. Too true, but it may have given him some relief...

She couldn't accept the pain was worse for him than the drugs.

[Lilli]

28. I'm sorry :(

My mom rode her last hubby hard, controlling his diet because he had diabetes....it wasnt untill after his death she felt any regret...she was trying to be helpful...but it took a lot of the joy out of living for him

[BikeWriter]

30. Yes'm, we have to try to reach a balance on things...

I know I need to drink a lot less and exercise more. It would be easier to do without PTSD.

[evlbstrd]

23. My god, what irony!

Actually, my mom expressed the same fear. Then it hit her...

[BikeWriter]

25. Yes, we have to be realists sometimes. :-(

[BikeWriter]

2. Hmm...

[tridim]

4. Works well for her..

[ghostsofgiants]

6. It works very well for her

[BikeWriter]

16. I can't see past that beautiful smile! :-)

[LastKnight]

35. i still like her better with the long hair.

but thats just me.

dont get me wrong shes stunning either way, but she just looks like something that just was freshly spit out of the matrix battery field incubator things without the hair...

[Chichiri]

7. Sigourney Weaver. Alien 3.

Worked for me.

[BikeWriter]

20. Oooh, yeah! :-)

[CatWoman]

8. Persis

worked damn well for her

[AlienGirl]

9. Here's me bald and heavily medicated...

Tucker

[CatWoman]

10. and you look very sweet

:hi:

[AlienGirl]

12. Thank you! But I prefer the look with hair...

Interestingly, my hair grew back darker, which I understand sometimes happens after chemo.

Tucker

[Lilli]

17. Mine is darker and curly - was always stick straight before

and you looked beautiful bald.......i however, did not :)

[AlienGirl]

26. I wanted curly, too!

[Lilli]

29. In theory - curly is great

but mine is still short and I have no clue what to do with it :) will be fun when I figure it out!

[progmom]

14. you did bald very well

:hi:

[BikeWriter]

18. Hey, a lovely Lady! :-)

[Misunderestimator]

40. Nice head!!

:thumbsup:

[Lilli]

19. Sinead

looked great bald too

[BikeWriter]

22. Yes'm, but can she sing?

[Lilli]

27. I can sing....but I dont look good bald and make buckets of money

she does both.....so someone must think so ;)

[BikeWriter]

32. I could make buckets of money, but only if I printed it. :-(

[Lilith Velkor]

31. I shaved my head in March of '03

It's just long enough for a ponytail now. (sorry, no pic)

I was a bit surprised at how many men found my crewcut a turn-on. Eh, you never know :shrug:

[BikeWriter]

34. My last ex cut almost all of hers off...

It may have been to convince me she didn't have a boyfriend on the side.

[Lilith Velkor]

37. It may be for a number of reasons

Some Original Americans do it when someone dies. Also, some women do it in solidarity with a friend or family member going thru chemo.

I cut most of mine off for Y2K, just to do something different. I've shaved it twice since then, out of grief at going to war unnecessarily while Osama roams free.

[SCDem]

42. My friend shaved her head

when her sister had to go through chemo... When her sister first saw her she cried her little eyes out and thanked her and told her to never do it again though because she looked hideous!!

What a sweet gesture to do for someone :)

[Lilith Velkor]

44. That is sweet

One thing I really like is how low maintenance the fuzzy look is. I've seriously considered keeping it shorn and getting a wig or two for when I feel like having long hair.

[no name no slogan]

46. Many muslim men shave it all during the Hadj, too

They shave their heads and beards off. It is part of the Hadj ritual, although most men just snip off a lock of hair and don't go for the whole "top down" look.

And no, I'm not muslim. I like beer and pork too much! :dunce:

[BikeWriter]

50. That sounds like a good enough reason, Lilith.

[In_The_Wind]

33. it worked for her

>

[BikeWriter]

36. Yes'm, it did, but I think she's incredible anyway.

[KG]

38. bald women rock so hard!

ok, so, i'm a freak....

[BikeWriter]

39. Well, maybe not so freaky. You're not the only one.

[RetroLounge]

41. Bald women make me feel all funny inside...

MMmmmmmmm.

RL

[BikeWriter]

47. LOL! Funny good then?

[RetroLounge]

52. Oh yeah, It's all good!

:D

RL

[Commie Pinko Dirtbag]

43. WTF? It DOES work wonderfully! (Oh, wait, you meant the head. My bad.) -nt

[BikeWriter]

48. ROFL! Yep, I'm sure you were confused...

[Kipepeo]

45. I like the bald look

I like to see someone's face. Usually, not always, but usually the more hair a person has the less their face stands out to me. I think everyone, male and female, should go as short as looks good on them. :)

[BikeWriter]

49. It can work if the woman has the features for it.

[Blue-Jay]

51. That's weird. I just saw a bald woman on the street.

She had eyebrows, so it wasn't due to chemo. Young, fairly attractive as well.

But I didn't care for the lack of head-hair.

[AlienGirl]

54. My eyebrows never fell all the way out

Actually, my hair was just falling out in big patches, so I shaved it all off instead of dealing with constant shedding and a patchy look.

53. I wish I had the courage to try it...

Unfortunately I'm much too fond of my long hair... hmmm... maybe I should...
