I really want to shave all my hair off. I had a really bad hair disaster yesterday and it looks awful. I want to shave it all off for charity. But I'm worried it will look silly because I have lightish/darkish blonde hair. I've never seen anyone who has blonde hair with a skinhead. If anyone has any pictures please post them. All comments welcome.

I don't think the color of your hair is what matters.  I think it's more the balance of your facial bones and body type whether you can pull it off (just a personal opinion of course).  If you mean you want to donate the hair, most hair charities will likely not use the hair for anything if its very damaged, not long enough, or not in good condition. 

If you don't really want to shave it off, are you sure it can't be fixed?  Any hair dye disaster probably can be.

Is there a charity that will pay you to become a skinhead? Locks of Love has no use for hair in "bad hair disaster" condition.

Just looking for a few good hair slaves - is that too much to ask?

I think there are charity events where you can get sponsored to shave your head, and it's the money that goes to charity rather than the hair.

Definitely your facial features and bone structure are the most important thing to think about when shaving your head.  Unfortunately, it's hard to know if you've got a good head for shaving until you've actually done it, so I guess it's pretty much a matter of how brave you are and how much you want it.

I suggest you try on wigs. If your hair is beyond salvage, you may as well get a quality wig to carry through til you reach pixie length. Even if you look ok as a baldie, there will probably be days when you just want to have a nice head of hair.

yeah we have the same type of thing over here - Shave for a cure  for Cancer.  People sponser you to get your hair shaved or coloured.

are you male or female?

I definately agree that your bone structure than the colour that what makes a good bald head from a bad bald head.

My hubby shaves his head because he only has a little bit of hair that grows.  He looks great as a baldy but he has brown hair/eyebrows.

A wig is a great option too. 

But I'm sure if you visited the hairdresser they could do something for you.    Think about what your hair is going to look like growing back! might be worse than what it is now.
