Beards - Page 6

**jAZ** · 11-20-2002, 10:08 PM

So I am looking for a little advice on the facial hair... I have long bounced between the goatee and clean shaven. I have never NEVER liked the mustache. I have tried the beard before, but I was never satisfied.

I am trying again, but I suspect that my problem is that I let it get too long, or I don't know how to properly groom the beard. I am going to keep it closely trimmed this time and see how it goes.

Just curious what everyone thinks of beard grooming.

How's the beard coming, Slaya?

It's do'n alright. The "goatee" was too thin a little while ago, which looked really crappy, so I started shave'n that every few days....the sides, however, have always been shaved with the rest of my head and should be "fairly bushy" by mid-November granted I don't shave 'em. The bit of my mustache is fairly dark cause I've shaved it a few times, but, of course, it's still too short to really be called anything.

I go with a full beard when its cold, the wife likes the goatee during the summer.
I've found that a beard trimmed to 1/4 or 3/8 " looks pretty good. That is the key, keep 'em trimmed.
For all you single guys: I've found that most women don't like facial hair, but the ones that do... wahooooo!

You HAVE to be kidding!!

"The goatee too thin" ????? GOATEE????

If, at anytime in your life, you've had a goatee, then I'm freakin' ZZ Top when I don't shave for two days.

You wouldn't welch on a bet like your old buddy, would ya?

Goatee... ah, good times.

Chief Chief · 09-30-2003, 05:09 PM

What old buddy?

Anyway, I don't welch on bets....you can choose the avatar and signature if you win. But pics and poll must decide, because, of course, it wouldn't be a fair deal if it were just yours and his opinion of what it should look like. To make sure that everything's fair-n-square, the names of who voted and for which side are to be shown.

I can't wait.

Chin probably won't look very convencing.....probably shouldn't have shaved off those hairs (they were thin, but they were long enough)....but the sides should look good enough. Oh well, whatever happens, happens.
