I wouldn't swoon over any of those men (apart from Stewart... *swoons*) but I can't deny they are attractive men.

Some people just can't pull of baldness though. Certain people just suit having hair while others don't.
I'm not sure I could see myself dating a bald person. I like hair too much!

Also think of the money you'll save on shampoo.

I recently shaved all my hair off (there's a thread about it around here somewhere) and quite liked it. It looks pretty good once you get used to it, and if your head is the right shape for it.
Now I keep it at a grade 2 or 3ish.

Pro: Look like this:

Con: You might not look like that.

If you can, try and ask others how they'd think you'd look. People aren't really that good when they try and judge their own aesthetics.

Objectively speaking, your head would always be cooler.

However, If I may be subjective, and if your profile picture is accurate(other than the lightsaber) I doubt you'd look good bald.

There is nothing wrong with being bald at all. I've got mad long hair (Tied back, that long) but I have early baldness in my family. I always hear mates go on about if they started going bald, they'd invent some hair-loss cream, get a wig, so on and so forth. The same with going grey. The moment I find a grey hair, I'm dying my hair silver. The moment I get a decent sized baldspot, I'm shaving my head, growing a moustache/goatee, then making meth.

But seriously...there isn't anything wrong with going bald short of not having hair to protect from sunburn. Have a hat when you go outside.

I think he'd probably run into the problem I brought up. When people see a thin teenager with a bald head, their first thought is "aw, poor chap has the big C, chip up".

Personally I think that it would be cool to try, the only real con for me would be having to look like a skinhead while it grows for a little bit. Having very little/no hair to maintain or even think about definitely makes things easier.

As someone who has been sporting a shaven head for the last 10 years and lives close to the arctic circle, i can tell you that cold in not an issue unless you get it wet.

Pros: Less maintenance, hygienic, looks good (your mileage may vary)

Cons: Can't think of any.
