Ahh, I am not alone, I too lack "connectors" which is really irritating, because it limits what styles are available.
I have to shave twice a day to keep a "clean" face. (7am, and 3.30pm) For some reason even though I'm 32, if I'm completely clean shaven, I get asked for ID everywhere I go. I used to find it flattering, especially as people think I'm younger than my brother who is 26, but it's now mostly a pain.
I drink a lot, and being asked for ID all the time is too much trouble, although the local shops and bars know me well enough now, it still happens when I'm further away from home. So I just shave every 3 to 4 days, but the lack of "connectors" does make it look a little bit odd if you inspect closely.
