Baldness






In shaving my head and yes I actually shaved my head instead of waiting for the hair to fall out. I realized the relief of not having to deal with it the clean up, trauma of hair loss, and the agony of forever itchiness. Of course the hair loss is a double edge sword. As I am happy that I didn't have to go through the slow hair loss I find myself suprizingly shy about it. I'm very self conscience about it. I see little kids staring when the occassion I do go without my wig or scarves. I know people can't help it but, it still bothers me a great deal. I often go swimming now at a public pool and am finding it embarrasing to not have my scarf on at all times. Odd...
