The last time I was clean-shaven was August 1987.
Since then I've usually had a trimmed but full beard. Occasionally I've gone Goatee, and at times I've let it grow to a 'tuck it in your belt, Jethro-Tull meets Gimli" kind of beard.
I even once had it long enough to be plaited with a ribbon (it was that kind of party).
When I first grew it, it was a little redder than I'd expected, but lately (amid the never-ending criticism about 'looking smart' from clean shaven co-workers) it's going grey. And not in a nice even way - just patches of salt-n-pepper amid the brown.
So today I thought that as I've a week off work, I might see what my skin looks like under the face fungus for the first time in 20 years, safe in the knowledge that I can grow it back well in time for work if it looks Shite.
Well, Ladies and Gennumen; it looks Shite. I look like a wrinkly 12 year old.
The pasty-faced guy in the mirror makes me feel weird.
And no. No pics, aSsholes.

WE haven't cammed in ages so what makes you think he'd start now.
Oddly, I have a full beard for the first time ever. I've dabbled with a goatee a few times, had an ill-thought mustache briefly once for 2 weeks, but mostly have been clean-shaven since my teen years. I month ago I started growing one in, and am suprisingly getting used to it. I've even had a few compliments that I look like some kind of barbarian out of the middle ages. Now all I need is some chainmail and a big axe and I can go Larping with the geeks.
Glad to hear you're coming back to the fold, Nobster.

Some people are like slinkies, they aren't really good for anything, but they still bring a smile to your face when you push them down the stairs.
My ******* is as smooth as flesh-colored glass. It sort of reminds me of a chicken breast that has been left out in the sun for a day or two.
I can't grow a decent beard to save my life, although I can grow a bushy blonde mustache, but noone wants that.

Brownish-looking and smelling of rotting flesh?

Well, sort of, but I meant it more in a "begging to be brushed with butter and fed to a salivating homeless person" kind of way.

I shaved my gotee off for the first time in a decade a month ago and I thought I looked like a "wrinkly 12 year old" as well, but I got use to it and I rather like the clean shaven look now. Give it a chance and you may to.

Alas, DF has confirmed that I now look as attractive as a road accident involving a chevvy and a wart-hog.

Black chicks LOVE it. I'm thinking of beading it.

I'm kinda fearful of shaving now.. I'm going to look like a tool thoughtfully stroking my bare chin.
or like a bare chin thoughtfully stroking your tool?

I hate goatees. Nothing makes a guy look like a bigger tool, except for maybe chops.

Boobs.
I was studying for an exam. A very difficult exam. One studies for six weeks to pass. Mrs. Yoyo who was a girlfriend at the time was away from home and I had no reason to shave. She asked me to keep the growth around until my next visit. That was summer, 1997. When she saw the facial hair (which I'd never grown before in my life) she loved it so much I couldn't shave it off, and so there it remains to this day. About the same as in my myspace pics, except I'm getting more and more white hairs and they are replacing the redist ones first.

Do Peruvian males even have facial hair?
Cultural bias!

1. Soul patch.
2. Pony-tailed tonsure.
3. Mullet.
In a time of universal deceit, telling the truth is a revolutionary act.

This is what I refer to as the "jazz goatee". It's ridiculous.
Oi! F'uck both of youse guys!
My patch looks feckin' sweet, damnit. I shaved off my beard about 2-3 weeks ago. Played around with it of course, like when you are shaving your head you try different styles until it's all gone. The most absurd was the Fu Manchu. I couldn't look at myself without giggling.

Those Trump women have bowels of steel.
So I suppose the worst would be a beard combover. With a ponytailed mullet.
