British slang describing someone who is bald or has a shaved head — often used in a teasing or blunt fashion.
British slang describing someone who is bald or has a shaved head — often used in a teasing or blunt fashion. The imagery is pretty direct: a head so smooth you could slap it. Like a lot of British banter around physical appearance, it's usually deployed humorously among friends rather than as a serious insult, though tone and relationship obviously matter. It's the kind of term you might hear in a British sitcom or between football fans taking the mickey out of a balding player.
