QuoteReplyTopic: Chloe Sevigny Posted: July 06 2006 at 6:46pm
I just read that Chloe Sevigny recently told Webster Hall’s Baird Jones that she shaved her head when she was 17 and sold the hair to a famous Broadway wigmaker for $500. The “Big Love” star said at the time she “wanted a rebirth,” but she’d never do it again.
She must have looked very beautiful with a shaved head. She is very feminine
with nice features, she could wear the bald look and look good in it,
I'm sure.
She looks good wearing hair also.
Ideally she would keep her head shaved and then wear wigs of long
blonde hair, so she would have the option of wearing the bald look or
wearing hair (like some bald lady fashion models like Anna Fitzpatrick,
Eve Salvail, Laura Hudson, or Margret Baker do).

I'm afraid I don't understand the attraction of a woman who has no hair. We're mammals and by nature are supposed to have hair. Do you also feel an attraction towards women without other body parts, like teeth or arms or legs?

Um.. I would hardly compare human hair to teeth, arms, or legs as it's modern evolutionary purpose is hardly more than the purpose of an appendix. Baldness in women can be seen as exotic, as it alludes to a difference in culture from normal Americana.
...and that's all I have to say about that.

anne6000 I agree with you. It's not a turn on for me at all.

All this talk about wonderful pixies and beautiful baldness ("shaved head" actually!), seems to me to be skirting on the edges of fetishism. I definitely get the impression that Brent would think any woman looked beautiful with a "shaved head".
Not quite Fatmoogas.
Only women that are very feminine and very beautiful look good with a shaved head.
And various hairstyles, including the bald look, have nothing to do
with missing body parts Anne. You are way off base there on that.
Nooneatall had it right.
A very beautiful, feminine woman with ultra-short hair or a shaved head is exotic, different, and can be very sexy.
I was with a beautiful, feminine woman who had very close cropped hair,
a very short afro buzzcut, and she sometimes shaved her head, and she was adorable in those styles. Those were very sexy looks
on her that she complimented with the right makeup, earrings, feminine
clothes, etc....
I am not against long hair, by the way. I have been growing out my own
hair. These days I wear my own hair long, it is straight, light brown
hair, past my shoulders.
There are also some gorgeous long haired women.

Three out of the four you mentioned have some sort of permenant hairloss so it's hardly a choice that they have to wear wigs if they want hair.

Just curiosity, but why would talk about pixies or baldness be any more fetishy than talk about women with hair to their bums? Or the idea that any woman would look beautiful in long hair? You know what they say about people who live in glass houses. . .

Thank you Kuroneko for pointing out the double standard by some people on these boards, in regards to
those who appreciate long hairstyles on women and those who appreciate
short hairstyles on women.

Look, I eagerly vote for "Chloe with hair" over "Chloe bald," but I've never seen the latter. Is there anyone proficient in Photo Shop that can take one or two of these photos and make her bald? Put them side by side. Then let the masses decide.
If Chloe looks anywhere near as good bald as such beautiful women who
have shaved their heads like Persis Khambatta, Natalie Portman, Bai
Ling, Joan Chen, Janice Robinson, Sinead O'Conner, Anna Fitzpatrick, or
Eve Salvail, then by all means, she should shave her head and try the
bald look. It might look good on her, it might not. A lady never knows
unless she does it.
Also, she never knows if she'll look good with long hair unless she tries it (and so many don't!).
Sorry, Brent, but a shaved head isn't just a political or radical statement. There are also medical and health concerns, as well. Hair protects the head, and with no hair on the head, any injuries could be much worse. Sunburns are a near-given for us blondes unless we douse ourselves with oily sunscreen. Different hairstyles and lengths are one thing, but eradicating all the hair from the head steps into another realm all together.
LOL!
Anne,
How about the many millions of men, and some women, who are naturally
bald (not to mention those men and women who shave their heads). When
they are out in the sun, they wear a headscarf, a wig, or a hat. They
know how to protect their bald head. They aren't stupid.
I know several men that are bald, and that is what they do, they wear a hat.
I also know a woman who is completely bald with alopecia universalis,
and she is very beautiful bald woman, and she wears a headscarf or a
wig when out in public, except on rare occasions when she is dolled up
and wearing her bald look.
By the way Kramer, a fake photo of a woman bald usually doesn't look
realistic, because they don't get the head shape or the coloration
right in the fake photo. The only way you can tell if a woman looks
good bald is if she decides to shave her head and try the bald look.
Some women look better than others bald.

Deliberately removing all hair from the head is different from someone having no choice in the matter. If you have no choice in the matter, you deal with it the best that you can. There are people without fingers and toes and arms and legs, and they learn to get along just fine. I'm not comparing shaving oneself bald to deliberating cutting off arms and legs, but the comparison is just to show how people deal with what they have or don't have.
I know you won't believe this, but in my sincere opinion, I believe that most people in western countries feel that a shaved head by choice on a woman is a very radical statement. She must have very strong feelings of hate or anger for her hair to do something like that.
It isn't a short hairstyle, which of course, many women wear. It's a "no" style. It isn't wrong that you like that style, but I think you're fooling yourself if you think it's mainstream or that many men like that look.
Anne,
I could care less what hairstyles are the most popular on women. I like what I like on women.
There is really no way to know just what hairstyles men like best on
women anyway, not unless you do an objective survey of the nearly 3
billion
men on earth.
So there is really no way to ever know what every man
likes, and who cares anyway what
hairstyles are most popular on women?
People like what they like!
Sometimes less common, more exotic, fashion styles on women look good
and are more intriguing.
I like all sorts of short hairstyles on women. Not just shaved heads on
women. I have made that clear many times on these boards. I enjoy many
types of short hairstyles on beautiful women.
A bald head on a woman is a fashion style Anne. In the fashion
modeling industry it is refered to as "the bald look", ..... as
in Eve Salvail and Alec Wek are two women fashion models who wear the
bald look.
And not all women look good wearing the bald look or even with a short hairstyle. Some have the look for it, some don't.
Very beautiful, very feminine women can wear the bald look or
ultra-short hairstyles better than other women can. I have seen some
stunningly beautiful and feminine women who look sensational in
the bald look or ultra-short hair.

I really must be in a totally different world than most people ^_^;;; ! I usually see a woman with a shaved head as being either a religious/spiritual or artistic statement.

Kuroneko,
Women I have met who shave their heads do it for several reasons.
Some for fashion reasons, they like the exotic, unusual, "high fashion"
look of it, and those women usually really doll themselves up in a sexy
dress, makeup, long dangle earrings, etc. when wearing their bald look,
like some of the bald women fashion models do.
I have also met women who have shaved their heads for spiritual reasons
(including a woman I know who was a Buddhist nun, who continued to keep
her head shaved after she quit being a nun, because she felt more
spiritual that way).
And some are just artist type of women, who like the fact that it is unusual and to them an artistic expression.
I have never met a woman who shaved her head to be a feminist or a
political radical, although I am sure there are women who have done it
for that reason. Which to me would be the worst reason to do it.
