Go for it bro...I have been thinking the same thing. It isnt anythign for me to shave the goatee..but the mustache..i have had it since i was like 14 ...lol...i know i had my hair since i was a born too ..but hey ...my cookie duster....its mine..i choose to grown it..i dint choose to grow my hair.
Well I took all of your advices...and went home during lunch and ditched the stash.....must say my upper lip feels naked. I appreciate the honesty though.
It looks pretty terrible, and I briefly contemplated shaving it all off and starting over again, but decided that would only set me back further. Nobody seems to have noticed, so it might not be as bad as I think. I can't wait for it grow out; I'm hoping it will be more or less back to normal by the end of the week.

As I am sure I will have some other surprises after checking some more threads. Anyway, I'm glad to see you finally went through with it. As far as the facial hair goes...Sure you could go ahead and shave it off just to see what it looks like but I'm a big fan of the beard with the slick dome. I've actually been wearing my facial hair just like yours for the past few weeks. I like it for a few reasons. #1 - I think it really sets of the sly look because of the big transition from no hair to a full beard and #2 - I think it's a lot easier to maintain. Meaning there's less hair to shave(on your face anyway.) Hey, hows it goin Lance, I had been wondering where you'd gone. Glad you're back, anyways. I always enjoy reading your posts.

I know what you mean dude...if there were a way I would totally love to have not a trace of shadow if it were possible...mine is not as pronounce as yours, but it's still there....
Razor...dude...I've seen pics of you with no goat and a bald face...It looks good bro..I wouldn't sweat it, why not go for the "Mr. Clean" since you're basically there?Wait....I'm NOT pushin' again or anything!
Just had to take a little alone time for a while but glad to be back bro. Thanks for the kind words.
For someone who has such dark hair, you really have very little shadow. Can't even see it at all in that latest pic you've posted. And from that angle, the shadow should be pretty obvious. If I weren't already sly, seeing that photo would make me want to grab my razor immediately.
Well I took all of your advices...and went home during lunch and ditched the stash.....must say my upper lip feels naked. I appreciate the honesty though. And you JOHN...wow major 360....looks good bro. Now I feel like I have competition. I would suggest thinking on really hard to keep the sly look. It fits you like a glove. Tim
by the way; here's me as of this afternoon. ... trimmed down, in prep for the weekend ....
[I think It'd be kind of cool to get a little trend going here .... Remove the Goatee for the "Sly Mr. Clean" look ! Are you listening RazorX (btw; you'd ROCK the MrClean; think about it), Lance, Marshall, Tyler, SlyKC and all the guys I'm forgetting !?!?!?!?
Thanks for the good words, Tim. Don't worry; My sly look isn't going anywhere. I'm too hooked on the smooth dome! .
