beards (facial hair) cool or not?

[SimuLord]

It depends on the face and how the beard is shaped. As a general rule, most women are not fond of facial hair at all. If you are in the market for a lady, you may wish to take this into consideration.

And if a lady doesn't like your +1 Goatee of Manliness, that's her problem, not yours, OP.

Bonus points if you shave your head and grow a walrus mustache. Beret? That's good too.

Beards are nice. Can slim the face, lengthen it, and hide a double chin. Of course, if you don't maintain it you just end up looking like a slob.

Currently trying to get mine as much out of control as possible, not shaving at all until November 1st. Halloween costume requires a really horrible beard.

i was thinking about growing a beard. nothing too rediculous just a short stubly goatee type thing. what do you think about beards and facial hair?

Awesome! I want to have sideburns/mutton chops, but I cannot yet grow them

Curse ye late, late facial hair genes of my ancestors!

Your first picture is awesome! Personally I like beards but because I have a very round face and curly facial hair, the only type I can really do is what my friends nicknamed "The Hagrid". Thankfully I can pull it off successfully, but I then have to shave for job interviews because a lot of people don't like beards in my profession

If I remember right the only reason it looks like that is cause I shaved the sides at one point or another. At first I had a beard cause I sorta lack a chin, but anymore I dislike not having facial hair. I've decided this time I'm outright done shaving.

It's a shame I can't find the pictures from when I had the Hulk Hogan moustache or the Lemmy, but there isn't a whole hell of a lot I can do about it.

Ahhh... a perfect opportunity to spring this video on the unwitting participants of the thread...

I was gonna say something.
Now I forgot, and whatever it was, I change it to this ^

That's a bit patchy on the sides IMO, if its like that I'd suggest shaving areas that are sparse and working with what grows in properly. I've had a decent amount of facial hair to work with since about grade 10 so I just experimented with different styles.

For a long time I just went with a goatee that I would trim occasionally and shave the rest of my face. I've also gone with full face beard, both trimmed and once grew it long. Though you always have to make sure to shape it and get rid of neck hair. Also tried out chin straps, but never the really thin pencil line looking ones.

Currently I am growing a long goatee, its about 3 and a half inches right now. Another past style I tried out were sideburns that go across the cheek similar to this:

Spoiler

People said it suited me so I'll probably try it out again in the future, along with anything else interesting that comes to mind.

So do what I do, don't shave for a week or two, then get a beard trimmer or something and try out some style you think would work. If it doesn't suit you, just try something else till you find what does.

i made the mistake of shaveing my...suprisingly large 16 year old sideburn beard with light mustache...I look 12 without it...but its groing back fast after only a few days.

 

[chiggerwood]

I have to have a beard or else people start calling me Ma'am, but I like it. It gives me something to stroke when I'm thinking. It also makes me look like Jesus Christ, or Kid Rock (shoot me) depending on if I'm wearing my fedora or not.

 

[Kortney]

I think stubble is attractive, but when it starts getting longer I can't stand it.

 

[Outright Villainy]

Oh, to young, aspiring beard growers: Make sure you can grow it properly if you're doing so. Patchy or whispy beards look horrible, no two ways about it. Basically, if you can't grow your moustache into your chin strap, it's a good sign yer not old enough to harness the sexy, sexy power of a beard. You gotta treat that shit with respect!

Whispiness is the worst though. It's a shame puberty does not allow the full beard growth at a younger age. Manly men have beards, or at the very least some deadly stubble. Whenever I shave it because it gets too long, I don't even like leaving the house for a few days. I will not appear to be ever without a beard damnit!

 

[Cowabungaa]

I'm joining the "It depends on the face" bandwagon here because, well, it's simply true. I probably don't have the face for a beard, but plenty of dudes too.

Honestly though, I'm just posting here because I wanted to give an example of an epic beard. Well, an epic man really:

If only I could grow a beard like that, and turn grey like that.

 

[Cazza]

Only if your facial hair colour is the same as your head hair colour. If it doesn't, it looks really stupid.

Nothing worst then brown hair, orange beard.

Your silly attempt at facial hair credits makes me wanna take a step back and watch all your crazy face palm reactions fail.

Now that you are all kinda crazy flimsy wimp counter action crap load out.... I ask you to step off you.... you are not what is important, you are just a reaction to silly steps of time.

I hate order.

 

[Horticulture]

If your beard sucks, it only takes a few minutes to shave it off.

Go for it.

 

[Queen Michael]

Depends completely on the person. I once saw a guy who looked like his beard was a false beard. He was not the right 20-year-old to have a bushy beard like that.

 

[stygN]

I have about 5 inches length around the chin, then shorter on the sides. It's a full beard, but I don't have a very powerful moustache.

I don't really have a great looking beard, I mainly have it to look hideous. Seriously.

Nah, I'm bulling you, it's awesome to have a beard! And I attract about as many girls as I'd like to (Not bragging, I'm just saying I don't want that many... In fact, I don't really have time for it right now..)

Grow a beard and get some respect! Grow it long and get even more respect! Grow it thick, long and awesome and listen to the sound of jaws cracking as they hit the floor! Beards are manly, they project power and wisdom!

And I need it for Halloween : ) Get some tanning lotion, some stuff to colour beard and hair black and some raggy clothes, and viola! I'm a terrorist! Already bought an AK47 softgun ; )

(Don't worry, I live in Norway, we don't have terrorists here, so the police won't shoot me on sight.. In fact.. The police in Norway don't really have guns either.. Or tazers.. So.. They could barely spot me on sight..)

And I don't plan on hitting the town in that costume, just at a party ; )

Any ideas for a fake bomb?
