Did you reciprocate and shave all of her hair off for her too??

Personally, I like the "Dave Mann" biker look. A crewcut, or a shaved head (unless you are bald) basically says "I give up. it's too much trouble to try & do something for my looks, so I'll just shave it & be done with it."

How would you guys feel if your women said the same thing?

And, pubic hair would be a Dick Van Dyke!!

My woman does shave it.

I'll tell ya too, I've had a fair share of women come up to me and want to touch/rub my head, followed by comments like 'we could have a lot of fun'. Just sayin.

Been rocking the shaved head and goatee since 1999 when I was 19 years old with a full head of hair and no street bike in the garage. The Harley didn't come until 2008. I rode cheap jap bikes for 8 years till I could afford the Harley.

Betcha I've had more grab two handfuls and say " I love your hair "


The whole who has and who hasn't thing sucks I know guys we all gotta deal with the head we're dealt at birth , figure I'll wake some morning and all my hair will stay on the pillow when I get up , now if I can just figure out how to slow the gray without dying it I refuse to go there ..................

You mean you guys go bald with a goatee because you WANT to???
Hell, I thought it was a requirement to ride a Harley. Damn, I coulda kept my Peter Frampton/Goldilocks look.

Actually, I'm not shaved, just almost no hair all across the top. I keep the sides trimmed down to about a 5 on the clippers. I wear the goat for a while, then shave it for a while. It's optional. The stash? I haven't shaved that since the day I graduated high school back in the early 70's. Used to make me look like Burt Reynolds..... now I just look like, well... an old fat biker.

Started losing my hair at 27 shaved at 28 never really paid attention to guys haircuts but if other guys are doing it so be it. Gillette fusion works really good, the blades are too fuggin pricey though. I would still have long hair if I could still grow it but then I would be cleaning both the OL and my hair out of the tub and sink and I would end up getting tired of it and shave the OL's head.

I don't recall when I started shaving my head. It's been quite a while although there have been short periods of time where I would let it grow out. In the end a shaved head is just easier all around especially under a helmet. I can remember racing and having my hair creep down over my eyes. Its annoying and distracting.

No goatee for me. They are too played out. It's full beard or nothing. Probably grow one in and shave it off two or three times a year. I also think its against the law to deprive people of my awesome red beard
