Redditor Asks If They Were A Jerk For Blaming Their New "Home" For Making Them Shave Their Head

Due to the hot and humid weather, many individuals shave their heads to help cool their bodies. We are confident that you will think of this solution to take care of your hair in the summer heat. Your head and neck are constantly perspiring, humidity may damage hairdos as soon as you go outdoors, and wearing your hair up for an extended amount of time may result in headaches.
Obviously, all of these difficulties are pretty minor, but wouldn't life be so much simpler if we didn't have to give a hoot about any of them? Just shaving it off is the straightforward remedy in this case. The advantages of shaving your head should exceed any worries and preconceptions you may have about pulling off the bald appearance, even if it may seem harder said than done.
You don't need to do anything unusual to maintain a shaven head. No of the weather, you may just roll out of bed and continue your day. You don't have to be concerned that the wind, rain, or humidity may ruin your event.
And the folk below also decided to shave their head because of the hot, humid, stinking weather in Texas - their new home. However, their mom couldn't accept her kid's new hairstyle. Then, the mom broke down crying and screamed at the OP. Scroll down to check out the whole story and please share with us your thoughts.

In order for hair to effectively reduce heat loss, skin must be covered by at least 1,000 hairs per square centimeter, according to a research titled Hair Density, Wind Speed, and Heat Loss in Mammals. The average adult human head contains just 200 to 300 hairs per square centimeter, which is comparable to a rabbit's pelt. Even while we may have had this much body hair in our prehistoric days as cavemen, modern people do not produce anything close to this much, making it ineffective as a heat source. Therefore, taking it completely off won't significantly change our body temperature.
Again, buzzing it all off won't necessarily cool you down (and growing it out won't necessarily warm you up), according to a more recent study that discovered that even the hair on our heads, regardless of length, is incapable of stopping heat loss.
As we've already discussed, only our skin actually regulates our body temperature. So, even if there are many benefits to being bald all over, one of them is being able to survive the intense summer heat.
