You are fortunate @Semi-Sly to have very good facial hair growth, so any beard style works for you.

@Semi-Sly I really like the cowboy stache with the flattop. it's a great look. I'm going back to a mustache over Christmas break. Why did the barber suggest the mustache? Did he figure it was time for a change for you?

I was getting the "itch" for a change and my regular Illinois Barber  suggested shaving the beard instead of the head.  He really thinks that it is my "duty" to be the "flattop fashion icon" (haHa)

My Florida Flattop Barber has now retired,  I am now up in Illinois  for a month for the holidays and my regular barber who does the world's best flattops hooked me up on Wednesday.  He gives the world's best High, tight and brutal horseshoe flattops!!!!  When I go back to Florida for the four winter month's I won't have anyone available to do the flattop for me.  I am not sure what to do.  I thought about going back to the sly look but my Illinois barber doesn't want me to do that - he says that then I will have to go through a long growing out period in order to restart the flattop.

@Semi-Sly , I've found that I only need about 6 weeks of growth to do a decent h&t flattop. So you could go baldie in Florida for a while, and start growing before going back north.

I'm tring a h&t recon right now. Keeping the sides and back shaved and a #2 on top.
Bald by choice, and loving it!
