i hate clean shaven look so f u
5 o clock shadow or bust

this is not a beard/facepubes hate thread.

 

[Dead Man]

I also hate facial hair, and how even after shaving there's a detectable shadow of stubble on your face. I've got half a mind to have it removed permanently but I hate pain

WHAT? I can understand not like the way it grows out on yourself or something, but hating the fact that there is detectable stubble? May as well hate your penis.

 

[Futureman]

I use one of these:

with, I think, the 5/8" attachment on my beard every few days.

It's real easy and looks good after. I hate HATE shaving my entire face with a razor down to the skin. I still shave my neck with a razor though.

 

[krameriffic]

I wish I had your problem. I can't grow any facial hair. "/

My legs and arms look like Robin Williams, but my face looks like the soft, supple skin of a 10 year old.

 

[Dead Prince]

I like to give my chin a good trim. since i rarely get any i like to get it down to stubbies ;3

I've kept at least a goatee since I was 17. Just recently have been able to fill out my mustache. My full beard looks nice, but recently I've just kept it to a standard, mustache-chin beard.

Haven't been clean shaven since a I was a in play at 18 where I had to be clean shaven for the historical setting and stage make-up. Grew back to normal in like 2 weeks.

But it's weird: when I was clean shaven, people thought I was 2-3 years younger than I normally am, and when I have any facial hair, I look 1-2 years older, I guess.

 

[BlazingDarkness]

Since there is no better time than asking this.

I'm a pretty hairy guy myself, but would people suggest shaving / waxing the chest / back hair?

The worst, my ass. What the hell do I do about that? Jesus. I'm fucked aren't I.

Edit: I wish I didn't grow hair anywhere except for facial hair which is sexy. <3.

Leave the chest longer
Wax the back
Trim the ass


Easy.

[MrOogieBoogie]

That dude (he's a runway/mag model) looks completely different without his stache. Crazy, really.

Pic?

 

[revolverjgw]

My mustache is nice and full, but I can't grow a truly full beard. My cheeks are too patchy. Fucking hate it.

 

[Tribes of Trusty]

My facial hair is weird. I have very dense hair (I mean when I shave my head it looks like a the fur of a plush), and I have based on this : http://www.mementoclothing.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/06/beardtypes1.jpeg
- A chin curtain.
- Plus a copstash standard...
that grows naturally, no need to shave (no hair on cheeks or neck).

I wish I had hair between the mustache and the beard, imo it would look less stupid.

 

[SolKane]

I too have to be clean shaven nearly every day, for fear that the minor dandruff which accumulates on my chin and upper lip make me appear to unkempt, disgusting and creepy.

Hard to find the specific one I remember, but here is an older example from a few years ago:

You can cover that area if you just grow your beard long enough.

 

[Wolfe]

Depends on who is asking :O


I work out, and my body hair is fine in other places. My wife seems to like the skipping a day thing but I don't at all.

It's not a matter of it growing in thin, it's just uneven and patchy, I have a unseemly bald-ish spot under my jawline on one side, and it just looks rapey. Bleh I'm 28 so I don't think it's gonna get much better.

I'm 29 and in the same boat, if I let it grow out it's patchy and uneven and looks like complete shit. The picture on one of my badges from when I was contracted through microsoft definitely had the sex offender look to it since I was lazy and didn't shave for a while.

 

[Tribes of Trusty]

I tried to do that once but my moustache hair grew to cover my upper lip and I hated that, so...

 

[Alligatorjandro]

I dont grow hair all over my face.Just in spots.

I want to have stubble

 

[Dead Man]

I tried to do that once but my moustache hair grew to cover my upper lip and I hated that, so...

You can trim the parts over your lip you know...

 

[videogames]

Keep your facial hair at 6mm length. Comfy scruff.

More hair on my face than my legs. Ehhh!

 

[Drazgul]

You can trim the parts over your lip you know...

Yup, or just comb / shape with fingers to the sides if your moustache doesn't grow overly thick.

Not that this look isn't totally cool:

But it makes eating a constant struggle.

 

[Tribes of Trusty]

Too much trouble and effort for me, I'll just shave the bastard away and be done with it

 

[Thoraxes]

I love my beard.

It turns women who are haters into lovers.

My beard is made of magic.

 

[Nemesis121]

not being able to grow this is my greatest disappointment in life

I am rocking that right now, gonna cut it in a few days it's starting to get annoying...

 

[KiNeSiS]

I hate facial hair as well..... On women!


ARRRRRRGH!!!!!

*!!!!!BAAAARF!!!!!*

 

[charsace]

This for anyone that has a patchy beard. Start drinking bull spunk. An infusion of testosterone will fill those patches in.

 

[freenudemacusers]

lol, the third person is olivier theyskens, godtier designer of rochas fame, and now (tragically) theory. kind of feminine features I suppose.

 

[SpiffyG]

I love my facial hair and my body hair.

also works if you apply it straight to the face

 

[freenudemacusers]

interesting... do you let it dry and form a mask, or should I use this as a bath wash and rinse immediately?

OT: We switched to Bronner's mild, thanks for the rec in that terrible soap thread.

Don't drink it! You apply it to the face. And in some places they drink it to get high.

 

[KiNeSiS]

One mistake out of the batch.
Well then the rest of those broads might as well be men with those well groomed staches....
What's up with that?


Whenever I go to a (straight)club there is usually a few groups of lesbians.
A lot of the butch ones dress in an early 2000 late 90's hip hop look.
Usually they sport a patch of facial hairs that are very well groomed.
Pointed side burns thoroughly groomed pencil mustache & goatee.
Even Abe beards.

I have dated/been in relationships with a few feminine lesbians.
Butch ones I would never touch but don't bother me at all, live & let live.
The thing that always puzzled & perplexed is why are the butch lesbians filled with anti male rhetoric, yet fully try to emulate the most masculine of male traits?
Why would any female think facial hair is attractive on them.
I just can't understand that mind-state.

Furthermore why are some feminine lesbians repulsed by actual men but then you see their significant other & it's some really fat out of shape woman trying her best to look manly with a mean mug & timberlands on.
When you speak to these women they say men treated them bad or abused them & they look to women now for affection.
I understand that thought process but going with a woman that wants to be a man, why not an actual man then?

 

[freenudemacusers]

You have taken my thread to a new place... I'm not sure whether to congratulate you or throw sticks.

 

[Pollux]

I haven't shaved in about 2 weeks and am a scruffy motherfucker...but damn I look good.

 

[Sanjuro]

My beard is glorious. Screw you OP.

 

[speculawyer]

My facial hair comes out in all sorts of different colors . . . red, brown, gray, black, white, etc. It looks horrible. I only had 1 short period of my life with facial hair.

 

[Dreams-Visions]

...On my face. Other people do the facial hair thing just fine, very well even, but if I skip 2-3 (or even 1) days I end up looking like a serial rapist or child molester. I let it grow out a bit every few months to see if it doesn't again turn into a patchy uneven mess but nope, even after 15+ years of shaving it's still godawful. Part of me just wants to burn the shit off permanently fuuuu

Does anyone else feel this way or am I forever alone.

If you know you're probably never going to want or look good in a beard, get laser hair removal done. It works well and it's particularly good for people of color who struggle with in-grown hairs on the neck.

 

[MercuryLS]

I'm jealous of people that can grow epic beards, my facial hair comes in so thin and patchy

I would love facial hair if it grew in nicely, as it is, it's terrible

Hmm, this is a good point, my neck hair is a complete fuck up... areas are practically aiming in every direction possible, and shaving without getting an ingrown hair is kind of trick.

I remember when I was 10-11 and getting my facepubes in and feelin like a pimp. now I hate them heh.

 

[Jaffaboy]

I love having a beard. I have a few patches, but I don't give a fuck!

 

[Gully State]

I too hate my facial hair. I wish I could grow a thick full beard but all I get are very thin strands around my lips which grow out fast.

 

[Maddness]

I love facial hair. It's a train wreck that goes great with my train wreck hair.

 

[KiNeSiS]

I have an epic chin beard & stache.
My full beard is shit. I call it a shit-beard in fact.
So many patchy spots on side and outside of neck jowl area.
=(

Truth is I always wanted an awesome Abe beard but I'm stuck with a shit beard that grows great, in a concentrated area....

 

[Agent Ironside]

I like to keep some scruff, something about it feels so......manly man man like.

 

[Kabuki Quantum Lover]

Fuck, thanks for reminding me to shave. So lazy sometimes...

 

[CarbonatedFalcon]

I maintain that there is an uncanny valley sort of effect going on in regards to facial hair/beards.

Clean Shaven: Fine
Stubble: Pretty Good
Couple Days Beyond Stubble: Creepy Michael Cera/Serial Rapist
10ish Days: Not Bad
Multiple Weeks: Alright, but not great

There's this window where I look terrible. Everything on either side of that window looks good or is acceptable however.

It doesn't help that my facial hair mixes blond and brown hair.

 

[Jo Shishido's Cheeks]

Laser hair removal over here!
I roll out of bed looking fresh faced every morning, no hassles, no more in-growing hairs, feels good man.

 

[ReturnOfTheRAT]

Why KiNeSiS, why?!??!!?!?

 

[Az987]

I started growing facial hair around 12 years old and since then I've probably only been completely shaven around 5 times. I just don't like the way I look without it, I feel naked.
