Just read this quote from Jennifer Hudson:

"I am actually thinking about shaving my head," the singer/actress reveals to InStyle magazine. "Because I feel I've got a good structure ... My cousin's a beautician and she's always saying, 'You could wear any hairdo.' So I'm thinking, what if I shave my hair? Not completely off, but low. I think that would be so hot."

Thought you fellow "baldies" would enjoy knowing this!

    Maybe some people but not
    Maybe some people but not me. I need the hair distraction. You know, give them something else to look at.

    bald is hot
    I were my hair cut really short because the medication make my hair thin. I thought about going back bald. I got alot of people tell me i look good bald. And I also seen other women that have the disease that they can't grow hair look good going natual. Remember I am not my hair. Beauty is within and it always come out. lol

    Did Demi Moore ever shave her head?
    If my memory serves me correctly, didn't Demi Moore come out in a movie bald? Of course, she looked great!

    Yes, Demi did shave her head for a movie
    And, ladies, no matter if we're bald, have hair that's a 1/4" long or even 1/4" long and as red as Bozo the clown (like me from a silly dye job gone wrong!), we're all beautiful, strong, brave warriors. Our hairdo or lack thereof does not define us--our courage does!!!

    Bald is actually COOLer
    Every summer for the past 14 years it takes all I have not to shave off the hair remember just how cool I was night, even with the hot flashes. I never wore a wig or hat except for sun protection. Not so great at the rest stop when someone mistakes you for a man though, must not have had their glasses.
    That was uncommon 14 years ago but today I see many shaved female heads and can only hope that aren't suffering through treatments. I never approach anyone in public but it does take all I have not too ask...

    Tara .. I actually smile, if they smile back I approach
    them and ask .. I'm 9 out 10 ... that all came back to say that they too where fighting breast cancer. Many are very happy to share with me, and vice versa.

    Yes you are correct, I forget about the cooliness a shorty hair style does for me during the hotter summer months. Not to mention that chemically induced menopause.


    Thanks for putting a smile on my face ... 14 years ago .. brave sole.

    Sexy
    Can you believe it? My husband wants me to keep my hair at about 1 inch in length. He says that it's sexy and when it's wet and I run my fingers through it, it looks hot! Well, how can I respond to that? Guess I'll be getting haircuts every 4 weeks!!!

    Isn't it great to have such a sweet, supportive hubby?
    After I had gained about 15 pounds during this whole ordeal, my husband said to me, "I love how you look--and I really love your a__! (which is about as big as the state of Montana now!) I want this guy around me forever!
