what do women think of beards, goatees, mustaches, and few-day-old shadows?

i personally like the scruffy shadow look, but a trimmed goatee isn't far behind. i don't care for growing a mustache or a beard though.

i really have no idea how most women think about facial hair on men, so please, enlighten away

On the right person, anywhere between scruff to full facial beards can look good.

The only problem is that facial hair can hinder cunning linguists, as it scratches like hell.

w0rd...
Although i've yet to see a guy that looked bad with a touch of scruff. Of course, the rest of him has to been clean and nice. Otherwise it just adds to the dirty bumness.
It's like women's hair. I depends on the shape of the face, color, etc.

That made me chuckle .. thanks

...I doubt facial hair does anything to hinder smart people that speak several languages ......

I'm quite sure you meant cunnilingus....

Mustaches are just a little too Village People for my tastes...

Goattees and scruff, on the right person, can look great, but they have to be on the right person...

One of the sales people in my office has something like 20 hairs on his chinny chin chin and that's about it-- that just looks silly... like he doesn't have the testesterone to actually grow hair...

Clean shaven... long as there's a chin is my favorite look...

It all depends on the guy -- not all looks look the same on all guys...

I'm not going to bother describing mine, but I still want an opinion. To preface the pictures, I must tell you that the split in the mustache is not intentional, I just don't have any hair growing in the center above my lip. Here are two pictures of me pondering a product that didn't really need the labelling it had.

edit: I added another pic of my brother's proof that the common banana can be improved on and made less healthy at the same time (yes, those are M&M's.)

Yer so cute...

Your look is a good look on you... It makes you look a little older, without giving you an old look, if you were to be completely clean shaven, you'd probably look 15...

Val_1 · 04-11-2005, 04:20 PM

Here's some facial hair for you: World Beard and Moustache Championship.

I don't now what make someone start growing one of these, but they definitely go all the way.

Skelington · 04-11-2005, 04:33 PM

it all depends on the person. i know some people that have to shave everyday because they look bad with that much growth. there are also some people that a fews days growth looks good. so it all depend.

i'm one of the few unfortunate guys that don't look good with facial hair, and do look a lot younger than we actually are :/ i'm 21 and still look 17 at times, when walking down the street on a weekday, i've had police actually stop me and ask why i'm not in school lol

when i do go without shaving for a while, it always grows in a mix of blonde and black, so it looks like i have patches missing

fortunate for me, i dislike the feel of facial hair, so its a non issue

Yep, Shave=get carded.

edit: not to mention that my chin disappears.

little_tippler · 04-12-2005, 07:16 AM

I much prefer clean shaven...call me picky. A cool goatee on the right face is alright...not a fan of shadows

...moustaches on their own and beards - no comment.

Acetylene · 04-12-2005, 08:12 AM

I like men to look like men, so that usually means a certain degree of scruffiness. But I don't really like beards or much mure than maybe a square inch or two of deliberately grown hair because food and lint get in there and it icks me out.

Not that I don't appreciate a smooth face on my boyfriend once in a while--nice not to have rugburns on my lips!

I like it. A lot. But you're right... for some folks, the words of a bearded man can be grating on the ears.
