My Dad rarely has to shave, but I'm not so lucky. He's always complaining about it when I see him because I have that Keifer Sutherland/24 look. I use an electric razor or trimmer most of the time, but I still have stubble after a couple of hours. In a couple of days, I have a full beard. Once in awhile I'll do the razor thing, but then I look younger than I am and I hate that. Not to mention how long it takes to shave it all completely off. My hair is like steel wool. I destory razors. Tried the goatee thing for awhile, g/f at the time liked it, but it seemed more trouble than it was worth.

When I'm being lazy I look like this (plus I like that it makes me look kinda creepy, glasses or contacts):

Yup.

Goatee. Have had it for a few months. Used to have a full beard, but started cutting it down to just a goatee. I've had at least a goatee for 8 years now; and my wife has never seen the bare skin of my chin or upper lip. :D

That said, I'm losing the hair on top. From the center out; I'm going to look like a monk. I figure the first time I catch myself actively trying to hide the bald spot, I'll just shave my whole head.

As for it getting popular? I have no idea. I've never cared enough to notice.

I know the feeling I shave my head and have a goatee. The goatee is so that I don't look like I am on Chemo.
 
I end up with a few days stubble before I get sick of it, so I typically avoid facial hair. I can't stand it during the itchy stage. It makes me feel dirty for some reason. Also I'm sporting the shaggy hair look and, well, I'm not up to looking that disheveled. :eek:
 
There's a lot of hairy guys here...

I have a low commitment beard going on right now. I have tried many different facial hair motifs- but my favorite is the handlebar mustache. It can't be worn too long - or else folks stop trusting you - but it is a beauty. Someday - if I work up the courage, I'd love to have a photo of myself with handlebar mustache, and mullet. That would be a spiritual state of being.
