Around this time last year me and my girlfriend went on holiday, and during it she convinced me to shave off my bushy mustache, which I had forever. It turned out to look really good, and I`ve kept it off. Well she`s already started with this year, and now she sugested that since we`ll be away for two weeks, I should shave my head. Not completly bald, but a one blade all over. This would be a big change for me, since i have wavy hair, very long on top. Should I trust her judgement again, or is this a little too much to ask.

I think you should go with your own judgement. Do what makes you feel good about yourself...and comfortable. Yes, she might have given you good advice last time... but it`s not her decision to make. After all... it`s not her who has to live with your cut.. it`s you!

I second that, you trust whatever makes you feel good. And it probably won`t look too nice, but
THAT is just my opinion. :)

your hair may turn out looking great shaved... but it is a really big step from having your moustache shaved, to your hair. make sure that cutting your hair is what YOU want to do, and not what your girlfriend wants.

Hair: It can make you happy, it can make you sad, but mostly it just allows you to spend some quality time with your mirror. :-)

I think you should weigh both your judgement and your girlfriend`s. Would doing something for her give you pleasure? Maybe you could compromise and go shorter but not that extreme (later you might go shorter...) or maybe you want her to do something in exchange....not a easy decision....most of us want to please our mates but feel threatened by someone suggesting change. Talk it out with her - she probably wouldn`t even consider asking you if she didn`t care about you.
My two cents worth.
