I have some. Grew it back in oct of 04. Shave it off around apirl 10th 06 or so. Was clean shaven for 3 days and desided I hated it and started growing it back.

Sadly this picture is at 1.5 weeks after I started growing it. It takes about 2 weeks for it to be fulling grown in how I like it. (it just a little darker not any longer really. I keep it trimed short). That and it now how I normally look. Also I normally wear glasses and like how I look in them better.

That being said a lot of people look really bad with facial hair. Some people really can pull it off. I been told I am among the few people who look really good with it. Plus since it grows so fast I think I look beter with it that the constan shadow look (full grown in less than 2 weeks).

The worse part about growing it out is going though the entire ichy stage. 2nd time it was not as bad. Only a day instead of the 3-4 on the first one and it did come in a little faster.

Beard & Stache - used to be dk brown with red highlights, now it's the Pepe Le Peu striped look.

Shaved it off a few weeks ago for the first time in 25 years.
Wife had never seen me naked above the neck.
She took one look, said. "Grow. It. Back."

(I hated the nekkid look too)
 
I used to have some facial hair but I thought it made me look a little too old for my liking. Since shaving it off I feel much better:) It wasn't much just a goatee thing but boy did it get annoying after awhile. Fun to play with while thinking sometimes though.
 
Nah, my facial hair grows in too light. Plus, the more boyish I look, the better for now :).

It looks really good on some men, bad on others. It hurts when you kiss though! So I say shave it off unless you need it, and many men do :).

No. No no no no no. No.

Some guys can pull off facial hair. I'm not one of them. Other things I can't pull off include caps, vest tops and short trousers...

No!
Same here on all accounts! Stubble on me just makes me look (and feel) dirty.
 
I wear some form of facial hair most the time. I grow a full beard, trim it, wear it for a while, clean shave, enjoy for a while, start over.

I haven't have a pics of the time I tried the muttonchops or the wilcox. :D

By the way, when I'm into "hairy" phase, I accept the fact that I'm not going to get much romantic attention from the ladies. ;)

Normally I shave a couple times a week, but right now, just on Saturdays. Once the bar is over and done, I might shave more often.

That being said, during the height of the "I got X done to my hair because <fill in NBA star> did it" era (about three years back), I did have the full Dirk head going on.
 
I tend to put off shaving just because I never budget time for it before work or when I'm going to school. Last summer forgot to budget time for it for 8 weeks. :p Had a nice beard going.

I have a weeks worth going right now so I'll be shaving this weekend.
 
I'm on year 5 of my current goatee. I'd pull a full beard in a second if it weren't for some uncooperative bald patches on my cheeks that would make it 1) look funny, 2) take forever to fill in.

When I first started dating my wife I went back and forth with being lazy and trying to grow something, and then shaving it when I decided it wasn't looking how I wanted. She had me go back and forth a few times and decided that she preferred me with it. It takes approximately 4 weeks for it to fill in if I shave it.

This is as much of a picture as I'm currently willing to put on the forum, and it was mainly to show off my daughter.
 
I rock a full beard about 90% of the year. The second pic is what happened after I saw 'Super Size Me' and had a man-crush on Morgan Spurlock. ;)

I get rid of my peach fuzz.... :D

Whenever I go to get my eyebrows done, they always ask "Just your eyebrows?"

I don't have a lady-stache! :mad:

and for that matter, any facial hair I have (non-eyebrow) is so super-blonde that you can't see it.

I don't have a mustache.. stupid waxers.

*pouts*
*spits*
eww, I got a hair in my mouth!

Just send me a prepaid postage envelope and and I'll send you my handlebar stache when I'm done with it.

Nothing spells "villain" quite like a good hold handlebar.

i had a similar man crush.... just no immitations afterward.


i rock some pretty schnazzy sideburns and that is all
 
I'm trying to grow sideburns at the moment, but I don't want a moustache or a beard...

Sideburns would look so cool on me... :cool:

you weren't the only one :).

I wish I had the option...

I am over 30 and still unable to grow anything resembling a beard. I have some modest sideburns - that's all genetics is allowing. Otherwise, it looks like my facial hair settlers managed to establish a small colony on my chin and upper lip, and have otherwise just sent out really small expeditions to the rest of my face - one hair at a time.

Also, for some inexplicable reason, my facial hair is sometimes blonde - while my actual hair is very dark.

meh. I'll probably be able to grow a beard right at the time I am going bald - the universe hates me...

I'm lazy when it comes to shaving, so for about half the week I have some nice stubble then when it starts to look like a beard and get annoying I shave it all off again. I do have sidburns though...

exactly the same here, i have pretty solid sideburns that don't go away but the rest of my face depends on how lazy i've been :)
 
Comes and goes with me. At the moment I'm shaving once a week - whether I need to or not!
