Goatee or No?

<< < (9/10) > >>

Razorhead:
I had a goatee with my shaved head for a long time. In the early 2000s it was such a standard look. I went clean shaven which I loved but I don’t think it’s my best look. I typically just wear a closely trimmed beard. When I go clean shaven I end up back with a beard. When I just do a mustache I end up back with a beard. A couple years ago I did the goatee again but a longer fuller version and ended up back with a beard.

Like reddog I have a weak chin and the beard fills it out.

 it’s fun to try different facial hair styles though.

I disagree with your razor head.  I do not think that you have a weekend at all!

But I think it’s cool that you like to change up your style I do the same sometimes a full beard, sometimes just a mustache and a soul patch, And lately the friendly mutton chops!

I shaved the beard and mustache when the pandemic was in full force, and I thought it looked terrible. I was disappointed because like you @Semi-Sly , I like the clean shaven head and face look. I think I might try just a mustache this winter and see how that looks. I also thought about trying no mustache, and just a goatee. I usually grow the full beard in the winter, so whatever I shave off, I can always start over!

Here’s a thought.  Before shaving off the entire goatee and leaving only a mustache why don’t you try shaving off the sides of the goatee and leaving the Van Dyke portion in the middle?  If you don’t like it it’s a quick fix to shave it off and just keep the mustache I think you look cool with a shaved head and just a mustache!

reddog:
@Semi-Sly , I've actually thought about doing a van dyke style trim! That's A great idea, if I decide to go for just a mustache, I'll try it. I'm going trim my mustache less now. I would love to try a handlebar stache. I think they look cool with a shaved head.

Razorhead:
@Semi-Sly i think you meant to say weak chin and not weekend. Lol. Thanks for the positive feedback.

After reading these posts I’m now itching to try something new. I like this style below. It’s like an extended goatee.
