For many a shaved head increases the interest they receive mate
Didn't work for me. I received no attention while intentionally bald. Actually at the time my female coworkers begged me to grow my hair back out. It seems my skull is more like the surface of the moon than a billiard ball.

I've actually had mixed reviews on it when I've done it and I've a " bullet " head lol! , some preferred it and others thought I " looked like a thug ".... So it's horses for courses
My point was that others can make it work and actually look better..... Plus I'll have a natural one in a few years so I've got to embrace it!
It's very flattering but sometimes I get tired of having to deal with the amount of attention that I get from women. I try to remain polite, and for the most part I am, although on a few occasions I've been slightly rude or sarcastic, but that's only when it has gotten to ridiculous levels.
When I go to a bar I can almost feel the eyes on me, and then sooner or later a woman will either approach me directly or indirectly, and again, it's really flattering but sometimes it feels surreal and I don't know how to deal with it.
If I'm with a girl or when I have a girlfriend there's usually at least a couple of other girls who although they know I'm with someone they still feel like it's ok to flirt with me even when the girl I'm with is nearby.
It happens at work, at the supermarket, in the street, everywhere. Again, it's very flattering and I do like it in principle but some days it happens so often that it gets irritating. I don't want to be rude to anybody but I'm trying to think of some way to deal with it, or ignore it (it's hard!), or maybe do something to prevent it from happening so much.
That reminds me of Charlie Harper. Just beware of HIV.
Prepare for the onslaught that will soon follow your humblebrag, though ...
Give the guy a break, it can be quite confusing, you don't want to willingly hurt any woman's feelings, but you can't spread yourself around everywhere.
I thought that it was great when I was younger, and like a mug I thought that it would never end.
For me it began to slow dramatically around 38-40, when I got into a stable relationship with the woman I eventually married.
It still seemed that I was getting attention though, until one day the penny dropped, it was my fault, as much as I loved my lady, I couldn't seem to stop looking in the direction of other attractive women, although my hand to God, I didn't ever pursue them any more.
Naturally, even if they were only vaguely attracted to me, they saw my looking at them as a green light, and would maybe smile in return.
Once I'd gone cold turkey and started going around with averted eyes, it all changed and came good.
I don't miss it at all now, and in all honesty, were I to resume looking, I doubt that any woman would be interested.

Hmmm. I was one of the few posters who took him seriously and offered advice. But ... ok.
Being good looking is a burden, regardless of whether people actually believe it, that requires a heightened sense of self-awareness so that you can regulate how your actions may affect the feelings of others you encounter.
No one can stop others from staring, as you seem to know.
How do you deal with excessive attention from women?
Gollygeewhiz! Don't know. Was never so rich or handsome that it was a problem. The closest I came was back in 1994 when I was in the midst of a divorce and about six women who knew me from work came out of the woodwork to let me know they were there for me; all of them single, hmmm!
I dealt with it by keeping away from all of them hungry wimmins but for professional necessity. Two years and many hints later, I asked out another woman I knew instead. She never gave out hints and I really liked that about her. Then I married her and was subject to some nasty looks from the others who knew her too.
