First day at work with a shaved head. It was an awesome day. I got lots of different reactions, all good. Here’s a rundown of some of the interesting ones:
- Did you lose a bet?
- I was afraid to say anything in case you had cancer or something.
- Mr. Clean, Mr. Clean!
- I’m just gonna call you from now on… who was that guy from Austin Powers? (Dr. Evil)
- Who’s the new employee?
- So what statement are you trying to make with this?
- What happened?
- Does your mother know yet? (She doesn’t… I’m surprising her this Mother’s Day!)
- Whoa. *Blank stare*
Most everybody told me that they liked it. Got one comment that it made me look older, more mature. I definitely can appreciate that, as I’ve always looked much younger than I am.
When my roommate saw it tonight, he just said, “Why?”. I said, “Why not?”.
Overall, I’m happy with how the day went. I got a major ego boost. I feel much more confident. Lots less anxiety.
The shaving I did last night was with my electric razor. I bought some manual razors and some shaving gel on the way home tonight, and had trouble getting the shave any closer. I’m so used to an electric… Maybe I’ll see if I can find an electric razor made for head shaving. I’d like to get it smooth if I can, so I can run my hand over it. Right now it’s all really short stubble, and you can really only run your hand one way.
