full metal jacket

Mate that is such a good idea!! Great shot(s)

hehe cheers rob, thanks for everyones comments :))

A great idea pulled off wonderfully.

Well done.

My guess, considering the title, and possibly stating the obvious here as I do at times, this is regarding conscription or the like at the time of ww2?

Then again i could be way wrong…..as I am at times. :)

Cool concept, nice one.

really cool buddy! welldone i like it!

very well done

thank you all for your comments there much appreciated. makes it worth the time and thought taking these images.

i love the documentary style, i love the concept. This is quite powerful.

great job.

Great concept, really well executed. I think that it is a strong documentary piece.

strong work James !!

Vraiment beau …
Andrew! Vous avez de bonnes idées!
Buddy Bravo!

Very nice ;) xxx

cool collection of images and great concept.

Great “CLIPS”...literally. ;)

Very interesting, I like the presentation of the series and the concept behind the experiment, nice to see someone really putting themselves into their art.

I really enjoy reading the descriptions, but some prefer to let the art speak for themselves. I personally like to look at the art let it sink in and then check the description to see if there’s additional information on what I”ve been looking at.

This is effing awsome! :o)
Well done

xXxOoO

Indeed a fantastic take!!!

i really like this! i love conceptual art…

brilliant

this is brilliant Andrew, I really enjoyed what you wrote as well.

Very cool work, Andrew!

I love these shots !! and very good idea !!

Cool … what a dramatic transformation from ‘boy-next-door’ look to trendy shaved head …. very interesting composition & collage ! :)

great serie !!

longest description award

you sure do;)

My husband shaves his head every summer when it gets hot here in Colorado and he gets the same looks and comments. So, it happens here in the US as well. I love how you have featured this as a photo collage.

You are one cool guy! I loved what you wrote >
Awesome sequence!

rocks!

I love the look of this

this is cool….every picture tells a story!

Hard work paid off and the experiment makes me think. It’s wrong that we’re judged by our appearance but it will never change. We can only take pleasure in surprising people when they realise we’ve different layers which change their initial opinion.

We’re onions – like Shrek! ;o) Had to lighten the atmosphere! lol

Great shots Andrew, real interesting read, ive got a shaved head still, kept it as its easy, and it suits me apparently, not had any accusations about being a Nazi yet, lol. You keeping it for a while or growing it out? Chris.

This is great, a nice peice art!

Wow! Thats fantastic! Great idea, great images. Love your work

clever series mate

My husband was a ‘mod’ in the 60’s, not a revivalist one…............. appearance was everything and they didn’t have shaved heads as a rule (check out what Roger Daltry had to do to keep his in check) !!! Mohair suits and a proper barnett !!!! Generalisations are tricky and should be used with caution !!! Now all men of a certain age have a ‘skinhead’..............

I think the ‘skinhead’ look has lost most of the connotations of racism here in Britain. Many men shave their heads now… me included – not that I have much to shave off now! My first reaction to the serieswas “What a great idea, I may try that myself”.... and I might, but you will get the credit! Great series AJM.

Clever concept! Congrats on homepage feature!

ooooooh Andy you’re on the homepage :0 awesome mate, defo deserve it! :]

thanks for the description here, great concept and it’s turned out very well!

this is really cool! :)

good to see this on the home page hon!

wow! I loved reading the story connected to this image. Upon viewing, it didn’t conjure up any negative emotions for me at all and i find it sad that anyone would be deemed as racist just because of their haircut. Maybe it’s because i grew up in the 90’s where i was so glad “curtains” were taken out of fashion by shaving your head and men became fit again …Amen to the clippers!!! Beautifully executed piece and well done on HP x

Good on you! Great idea, thanks for sharing… wicked way of presenting your shots too =D

this is the most beautiful thing i’ve ever seen!!

Well…I could just look at this for hours.

great concept, well done

the imagery is strong, but adding the text made it intelligent social inquiry! thankyou for thinking outside the square!

Great thought provoking images and written work!!
Took me back a few years!!

i reallly like this. grabs your attention instantly.

It makes one think, doesn’t it. Bravo for your experimentation, and for your documentation. It provides good discussion

Congratulations for being featured on redBubble’s Home Page!
So you’re a student of human kind?

brilliant – photographs and text. the skinheads i talked with in the 80’s were intellectually on the left, this surprised me at the time.

Great concept and very well executed

EXCELLENT

BEST REGARDS,
ALEX

great idea “i wouldn’t do it because i love my hair so much but this is fantastic i love the center shot the angle is perfect

very cool way to visually express the question/statement! Creative and well done. The subject is one that i’ve been interested in since a youth in the mid 80’s (in Kansas City, USA). Enjoyed stopping by!

very cool. good idea and well researched. nice one

Very provocative series of meaningful images.

great series! and i agree that the time of the prejudice against skinheads has passed. the unanimously voted greatest man at David Beckham sported the hair (or lack of) hairstyle for quite a while and still does!
so ii think the evidence is there to say that its not a big issue anymore. i guess the only people who would worry about that have thier heads in the past.
a great set of photos with a great meaning behind them!
great work!

Lurv this shot…really well done!!

great series of shots. well done

i have also just recently shaved my head.. something i always wanted to experience.. as a female it is quite an interesting experience…

You’re a brave man to do this yourself. I let my wife shave my head.

:-) great
