How I did it: After I gave birth to my son in a beautiful home birth after multiple days of labor I settled into new single mommyhood. When he was not yet 6 weeks old I found out he needed heart surgery. This was the point at which I decided I could no longer deal with having hair. I bought a pair of clippers at Target and shaved away. I have no regrets.

Lessons & tips: This was the second time I'd shaved my head. The first time being when I was 14. I regretted it then, but I think it's because I lacked confidence. Be confident in yourself and just do it!

Resources: Wahl clippers from Target!
