I've been shaving my head for about 16 years.
It's still necessary?

Okay Homer, I believe you. :lol:

Don't forget to sunscreen your head.

My hair is driving me nuts. I needed a haircut when the lockdown started. Clippers ordered and will be here eventually.
Another vote for clippers! The one's I want went out of stock.

All the cool kids are cutting their hair off!

:cool:

I’ve been growing mine out, so the lockdown came at a good time for me. I forgot how painful long hair can be. For a while there, it would get caught up in the seat belt retractor, but I guess it is long enough now that that doesn’t happen. I’m going for the Little Mermaid look. 😋

It gets more necessary with every passing year, in fact.

When I get a bit shaggy, I start to get uncomfortable about it. I way prefer a shaved head at this point.

I wear hats in the sun, usually. The tan is just from years of exposure.

Seriously, though, I was totally built for a pandemic. I've always been somewhat of a loner, even though I have no problem in social situations (except that I tire of them quickly). I self-groom. I wash my hands obsessively. A show has to be really important to me for me to leave my house to see it. I've always been suspicious and wary of restaurants; I don't miss them at all. I've never been a touchy-feely person around people I am not intimate with (these people that go around hugging everyone they meet kind of wig me out). I kiss nobody on the mouth but my wife, and my daughter only on the forehead or cheek.

I'm a pandemic surviving machine.

And I should point out that by using Homer as my avatar, I'm slightly misrepresenting myself. I'm not sporting as much hair as he is.

Last time I went in a barber shop was about 1965. I hated it. They always put this awful greasy stuff in your hair and I didn't like the way it looked. I decided perhaps a decade later that If other could cut hair I could give it try. Been using my own scissors for a long time now. snip snip snip.

Cutting your hair with scissors. I’m impressed.
