This hair thing is very personal for some people, and I respect that. Although I have never really been paranoid, I know that going to a full cap has changed the way I look at it all.

The other day I went to the dentist with no hair. I did wear a baseball cap backwards, but nothing underneath. A few days later I went back with my unit ON, and nobody gave me a second glance. I'm getting more and more brave about using the unit as an "accessory" as opposed to a "necessity".

I agree. It's very liberating not to have that little secret you always have to hide. Most of my friends know. Funny thing is, this is such a NON ISSUE that one guy I know I told months and months ago that I wear. It became obvious that he hadn't told his wife, because over halloween I dressed as Mr Clean and was totally shaven. Her comment to me was "I can't believe you shaved your head just for halloween!

Wars, recession, politics.....who really puts THAT much thought into our hair?

Only we do.

I did that once a a Halloween Party and some we amazed at the "skull cap" LOL

The bottomline is many think people around them don;t know. But they may anyway. The whispers in the corners.

The other thing to remember is YOU will notice EVERYONE else's hair because you wear. Most people "assume" its your hair unless it looks like the stereotype. And it IS your hair (you paid for it)

I have seen some units 99% of people WITH HAIR would never suspect. Idon;t wear for other wearers. That would be stressful. I write music and record it. I don't make recordings for other "recording engineers" they will find all kinds of issues. If they don;t all the better. But I wear for the avg Joe Plumber who has hair. Everyone does not have perfect hair everyday. Those that do are spending far too much time in front of mirrors and less time living life.

I just think for some it's more stressful to wear then not.
