Okay, fugu made his choice at BobNDanaCon, and has pestered me enough about it since then, that I'm posting the pics from the summer I shaved my head. Unfortunately, they weren't taken right away, so my hair is not actually buzzed, just very short.

Here's the picture in which I look like a 12-year-old boy.

And here's a picture with henna drying... this was the time frame when I was running 6 miles at a time twice a day, I am no longer that svelte.

Happy now?

Not really. We were promised bald pics.

Perhaps you could shave your head again, and take pictures of it?

Ya know, I think about it every now and then. If I ever do it, I'll be sure to actually take good pictures. Of course, there are digital cameras now, which certainly helps.

Added: Reviewing the thread, I never actually promised bald pics. I promised pics from after I shaved my head. Technically, every pic you've ever seen of me has been from after I shaved my head. [Razz]

Very nice pictures, ElJay, thank you [Smile]

And I wasn't pestering you all that often [Razz]

I suddenly feel like I've missed a reference due to not watching Friends all that much.

I was thinking it was a biblical reference, and trying to decide if I wanted to go try to figure it out or just admit that I couldn't remember the story.

*really hopes that she's remembering correctly that it's old testament*

Rachel
quote:
RACHEL: Ohh! Phoebe, this is all your fault! Now he loves her, he's gonna marry her, and this is all your fault.

PHOEBE: You said it was okay!

RACHEL: You said she was bald!!

PHOEBE: What?! What-what-what-what-what?!

RACHEL: Phoebe, we can't, we just can't just let it happen! Okay, we have to do something! We have to break them up! Okay? Just go in there and like, shave her head! You owe me one bald girl!!!

Or maybe Ross . . .
quote:
Ross: Oh. Uh, by the way, if it makes you feel any better. I happen to like 8-year-old boys.

Caitlin: What?!

Ross: The uh, your hair, before, your hair, you said you thought your looks like an 8-year-old's, and I'm just saying I like it. The hair.

Caitlin: Oh. Thanks.

Ross: You understand I don't actually like 8-year-old boys.

You do look adorable in those pics, ElJay. [Smile]

Could be that, too . . . but I'd be equally lost, so could be whichever [Smile]

*laugh* I've never watched Friends, so that possibility never entered my mind.

I'm not going to shave it again any time soon, rivka. Probably.

Eljay... the pics of you with the shaved head remind me of Helen Slater in the 80's movie, The Legend of Billie Jean.
