I've noticed something odd in the last year or so, that if I'm out in 'summer' sunlight (ie. the sort that one needs to worry about getting sunburn), and it doesn't have to be for very long (say 30-60 minutes), that I end up feeling really lethargic mentally and physically for hours afterwards.
I'm wondering whether it is since I started shaving my head. I have been going bald for years (except back and sides), but it's only been for about a year that I've started shaving my hair really short (the shortest setting on my hair shaver).
I know from a sunburn-on-scalp point of view that I should keep my head covered in this sort of weather. I always drink plenty of fluids (and I've not been trying to drink more because it's summer), so I doubt that has anything to do with it. I'm wondering whether me not covering my head from the sun might be the problem. Obviously I'll try that next time, but I'm wondering whether anyone else with no/shaven hair has noticed a similar problem.
