Reasons Why Men Should Go Bald

Why Bald Guys Are Hot

Christina Majaski
It's true that women love hair, but we love nice hair. There are many reasons for men to choose to go bald whether you have inherited the balding gene or just haven't maintained your hair the way you should. Rather than taking the chance of looking like one of the Georges (Jefferson or Costanza), why not try shaving your hair off this summer and going bald?

Reasons to Go Bald on Purpose

I have asked friends that have chosen baldness and here are five reasons they love it:

  1. Low Maintenance. No more trying to figure out how to comb or brush your hair just jump out of the shower and you're ready to go.
  2. Bald Guy Attention. Random women will ask to touch your head for no reason, and you'll like it.
  3. Less Stress. No more worrying about bald spots, hair loss or hair thinning.
  4. Economical. Save money on hair products-no shampoo, conditioner, hair gel, mousse, brush or comb is needed. If your hair is already thinning or your involuntarily going bald you'll save money on special hair shampoo, hair plugs, hair pieces, hair paint and whatever else you consider to remedy the problem.
  5. No More Fly Aways. This reason is from a motorcycle rider and it applies to bicycle riders, hang gliders and anyone else doing anything in the wind. When you rock a bald head, you don't have to worry about hats or bandannas blowing off or hair flying in your face.

Tips for Caring for a Bald Head

One of the best reasons for shaving off your hair is simplicity. Here are 4 easy steps for caring for a bald head:

  1. Keep Your Scalp Clean. Wash it with whatever you wash your face with.
  2. Exfoliate. Your scalp is prone to breakouts and flakiness just like the rest of your body. Especially in the summer. A bumpy, flaky bald head is not as attractive as a smoothly shiny one so invest a dollar in a loofah.
  3. Moisturize. Again whatever lotion or moisturizer you use on your face is sufficient.
  4. Apply Sunblock. Give your Scalp Some Sun.Your head could be a lighter color than the rest of your skin since it's been covered up with hair.
Hot Bald Guys

Bald guys exude a certain gritty boldness. I think partly because you have to have a little confidence in your face and the shape of your head to decide to shave off all of your hair. Just in case you need any other reason to go bald, here are a few examples of hot guys who are bald or have gone bald at some time or other:

Billy Zane

Taye Diggs

Vin Diesel

Bruce Willis

Frederick Ljunberg

David Beckham

Chris Daughtry

This summer take the plunge and shave your hair off. You may never miss it. (And if you do, it grows back.)

    Never saw this. Now that is funny and I hope I am never in this position to have make a decision about my hair.

    I agree men look better going bald than trying to cover it up with extra long hair covering the bald spot. I am adding you to my favorites.
