Today, my alopecic and adorable wife, Cheryl, deviated from our primping routine and shaved her own head. I'm certainly no fetishist but, to be honest, I was disappointed...and almost offended. I really look forward to shaving her head and wish that she derived such joy from me doing so that it was her expectation.

Mind you, I don't "need" to shave her head, but I do consider it a privilege and honor since she has never allowed anyone else to do so. I also function best as a creature of habit, especially when, for me, this deepens the intimacy and joy in our marriage.

Is there anyone else who feels this way about shaving their alopecic partner? On the other hand, if you're an alopecian, how do or would you feel about your non-alopecic partner feeling so strongly about shaving your head?

In the begining Leo used to shave my head for me. This went on for a few months.
Now I'm shaving every other day and I can be done with it in less then 5 minutes.

If leo wanted to shave my head thats cool. He does do the finishing touches for me to make sure I didn't miss a spot.

Now can we talk about shaving Leo's back? LOL

Hmm! Heaven knows I'd much rather put the finishing touch on Cheryl's shaved head than shave her back! LOL
That would be just my luck! No hair on my head, but need to shave my back! LOL!
Aimee, why are you touched that your husband would like to assist you with cutting your hair? What does/would this mean to you?
My fiance shaved my head and to be honest I really only feel good about it because he likes to be the one to do it so I hear ya there.
Becky, I've got the same question for you: Why does your fiance shaving your head make you feel good?
Losing my hair was absolutely the hardest thing that I have ever endured. As a woman for me it made me feel sexy, it was an accessory to my outfit and I like the feel of a man's hands in my hair. I suppose if I am going to be honest the fact that my fiancee WANTS to shave my head because he thinks I am beautiful with or without hair is why I like him to be the one to shave it.
If I find a man I like - who isn't a fetishist - and who has such a strong desire to shave my head, I'll be thrilled! If he loves the way I look without hair and genuinely wants to shave it off, then I wouldn't object one bit. I'd put the razor in his hand and lead him to the bathroom. =)
Alexandra, I really like that image: My alopecic and adorable wife taking me by the hand and leading me to the bathroom to shave her head. Hopefully, she'll like it, too. ;-)
My turn ;). I guess in many ways after 17 years, shaving my head has become a rather routine, much like shaving my legs and in this case on this day, I just wanted to get it done. I am truly touched that rj likes to shave my head and I love it when we are together shaving each others heads and taking the time to talk to each other about our day or our future.

The first time rj shaved my head was an intimate moment. A time when I really felt his love applied to all parts of me. Having him softly touch what at one time I felt was the thing that would scare men away was again another time when alopecia came full circle for me.
Baby, let's get a room and shave!!!
Hahaha! RJ, you're funny! You and Cheryl are such a great couple. =)
