Stars with Buzz Cut

Some also celebrates this pure baldness in their own movies. Jeff Bridges sported it in Iron Man (2008).

You also have Vin Diesel (XXX), The Rock, Michael Chiklis (The Shield), Samuel L. Jackson, and Bill Zane.

Even Sigourney Weaver, Grace Jones had their own past romance with very short hairs or what was left of it after a good clean shave.

POST-PRESS: Narcissistic Disorder, Ground for Annulment

Children have the lowest use of vegetables as Vitamin C source, contributing only 34.6 percent to diets among 6-12 agers and 17,2 percent among those ageing 6 months to 5-year olds.
