You can give it a try, and if it does not work out, your hair will grow back. As for head shape, I'd say your head sounds like it might be suitable for the shaved look.
Boy is this an old thread. But, that's ok. Back in 2011, my youngest grandson at the time had leukemia at the tender age of 18 months. I said that if he ever lost his hair, I would shave my head to honor him. Well, he did, and I did. As a result, my dermatologist found a melanoma on the top of my head. It would have gone undiscovered without that head shave. I had it excised and now have a scar of about 2 1/2 inches, but my hair covers it nicely. So, sometimes a good head shave can save your life. He is 7 now and in remission. He is a very happy and active 7 year old.
