    Me Again - 17 Year Old Male With A Mountain Of Questions

    Hey Framer: I know exactly what you mean, some people it looks good on but the shaved head look would just look tragic on me. The social acceptance thing is pretty spot on: with the condition I have (BDD) I actually cross roads to stay out of sunlight so my hair looks less thin, avoid crowded...
