Facial hair: to Grow or not?

[spartan300]

Yeah, Chibbi, for some reason it seems college is the time for personal hygiene to take a few giant steps backwards. I didn't shave more than twice a week back then. Also alotta people here in Boston liked to wear pajamas to class.

If I could actually grow respectable facial hair I would sprout a beard with out hesitation, but with the way things are going, I won't be able to grow a descent pair of side burns until I'm 30.

I had a goatee for a few months when I was 18, but I quickly grew out of that phase. Now I'm clean shaven.

I grow facial hair very easily. After just two days without shaving I can pass for Vincent Gallo.

One of the only requests - if not the only request - that my wife made that I refused was to grow a mustache. (Well, there was that thing with the carrot.) When I was hitting puberty, I vowed never to grow a full 'stache. I am Greek and every other guy in my entire family seems to have a hairy lip. Not for me, nuh-uh. Nope.

I don't shave most weekends, and I think I would look awesome with a beard. This past week, I let my facial hair grow for four or five days before shaving it off, and I must admit it does look kick-ass at that length. Of course, I look kick-ass without it, too. And I like the more youthful look.

My wife doesn't mind me having facial hair ( I usually just keep the mustache, but I recently shaved it off ). She says it looked good on me, but it would be uncomfortable on close contact, so I decided to get rid of it for a time.

I just keep the goatee and thats it...I fucking hate being baby faced. I used to have a long pointy devil goatee and one day got so sick of it that I shaved completley!! I thought that was a bit of a mistake so I immediatley started growing out my goatee again...its not a devil one this time...just shortish type hair on the bottom of my chin. Makes me look older and feel more rugged.

I've shaved maybe once in the last four years. It gives me ingrown hairs like crazy. I just use clippers to buzz off the hair every week or so. I don't really care for facial hair, but it doesn't bother me much either. Besides, if I shaved it just wouldn't look right. I dress like a bum most of the time and I don't cut my hair anymore. Nobody would ever guess from seeing me that I'm a total neat freak.

Don't worry, Korian. I don't grow facial hair, either. ;_;

Nick, once again I am convinced of your brilliance.

I really think a healthy round of hobo stubble is the way to go. Although it should be noted that every man will have a crazy "beard phase" in his life in which he will lose contact with the world and begin speaking in tongues. No one is safe from this phenomenon. I only wonder when mine will consume me...
