KevB Posted July 19, 2012 Share Posted July 19, 2012 Think Blackmore was wearing a syrup as far back as mid-late 70's. Ian Paice mysteriously has more hair now than he had 30 years ago, though Roger Glover seems to have accepted it and just wears the ubiquitous bandana everywhere. Mine's been going steadily for years, especially at the back but whenever I seriously consider going for a cut #2 all over someone pipes up that I should keep it!

BigRedX Posted July 19, 2012 Share Posted July 19, 2012 Way back when, I always said that if I started loosing my hair I would shave it all off. However since that's become the default lazy man "hairstyle" I think that I'd rather have a wig. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
discreet Posted July 19, 2012 Share Posted July 19, 2012 I've sported a #4 on top and a #2 back and sides for years, so it's difficult to tell if I'm going bald or not. My pubes have gone grey though, I'll tell you that for nothing! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KingBollock Posted July 19, 2012 Share Posted July 19, 2012 (edited) I used to shave my head completely, with a razor. Which was tedious. I talked to a hair dresser once, saying that I wished I would just go bald so I didn't have to keep shaving it, and she said I probably would never go bald, something to do with my kind of hair, apparently. So I stopped shaving it. That was in the middle of 1999, I had it cut for the first time since then a few weeks ago, just a few split ends trimmed off, that's all. I always thought that Bruce Dickinson and James Hetfield suffered from Samson Syndrome, where they cut their hair and their voices turned to crap. I'm sure there are others too. (It's not really true by the way, it just happened to coincide with me going off their bands) And the dude with the size 8 head... bloody hell, I've never met anyone with a bigger noggin than mine! I'm 7 3/4. I finally had to make myself a hat stretcher to get a leather Stetson to fit me. Edited July 19, 2012 by KingBollock Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve G Posted July 19, 2012 Author Share Posted July 19, 2012 (edited) Cool look KB Thanks but not sure the fisherman/golfer style cap would suit either tbh. Yeah i'm fussy (odd looking maybe) Not sure I'd have long hair again anyhow, remembering what a pain it was to look after. My son is now growing his, much to my wifes dismay. Go for it I reckon, he'll probably keep it too Edited July 19, 2012 by Steve G Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
