Men with Shaved Heads Are Perceived as Bigger and Stronger

October 8, 2012 by Charlie

Ok, you just know I had to pass this on!

Shaven-headed men seen in photographs were perceived as an inch taller and 13% stronger than men with full heads of hair, according to an experiment reported by the Wall Street Journal. Albert Mannes of The Wharton School says he conducted his study after noticing that he was treated with greater deference after shaving off his own hair. His research shows that men with shaved heads are seen as more dominant than men with full hair, and men with thinning hair are seen as the least powerful of all.
