In the spirit of ranting for no reason, here's another one.
I recently-ish, shaved off the small whispy bits of hair on top of my head. If you've seen me recently you would have noticed and epic bald patch.
I did this for a few reasons, but mostly because those bits of hair got in the way of my ITG playing, so off they went.
Now here's what annoys me. Several people have told me that my "hair is growing back thicker".
NO IT IS NOT!
Shaving off your hair does not make it grow back thicker, how can you even think that it does?! Why do so many people have this bizarre misconception?
Let me ask you, if you cut all the hair on your head to half of its current length, does it magically become thicker? NO!
When you shave hair, you are doing the exact same thing! Just cutting it far lower. It is not possible for more hair follicles to magically spring into existence because you cut your hair, nor is is possible for the shaft of your hair to suddenly double in thickness! Stop thinking that this is what happens.
I can offer, perhaps, one explanation of why people think hair grows back thicker when you shave it. The base of your hairs is a lot thicker than the tip, so when you shave it right down to the base, it may feel as though the hair is much thicker.
Come on, if shaving really did make hair thicker, imagine how thick most men's beards would be!!
Yeah.
