* In one of the sourcebooks for ''[[Mage: The Awakening]]'', there is a young 20-something who keeps her head bald because her nimbus manifests as sparks running along her scalp serving as a sample character (for the Pygmalian Society in ''Legacies: The Sublime''). This electricity is not strictly ''real'', but the feeling of lightning through her hair is unsettling enough that she prefers to just keep her head shaved bald (if asked about it, the book states that she'll claim to be making a statement on 'gender or something'). Interestingly enough, she actually has the [[Hello, Nurse!|Striking Looks merit]], indicating that she's actually exceptionally ''attractive'' in her own unique way (not [[Angelina Jolie]] level, as that's the higher-level version of the merit, but still attractive enough to draw eyes) and it's mentioned that she's been featured on covers of magazines a few times. Judging from the page art, she deserves the merit. |

* In ''[[Forgotten Realms]]'' Thay has a custom of shaving heads - Red Wizards and everyone else with status worth a mention has a bald head and often a tattoo or several on it. This includes women, but given that anyone important from Thay is likely to be an arrogant representative of their evil magocracy and/or engaged in slave-trading,<ref>there are refugees, but since they would rather not be identified on sight to begin with, they tend to abandon this tradition</ref> the aesthetical side of their traditions rarely becomes a prominent concern. |
