Goatee or Not?

[baldbob]

On vacation with the family this week. Thought I'd give a goatee a try since I've read comments from many of my fellow sly guys that facial hair helps round out the look. Give me your thoughts.

Here's a before pic:



And the start of the goatee:

[Cave Dweller]

Congratulations on a good start, sir.

[slybeard]

Yes, its a good start.  Get some length on it before making a judgement, I think you will like it.

[Razor X]

Yes.

[Mike E. P.]

That's gonna look good. Give it a go.

[Sir Harry]

I vote for the goatee.

[Semi-Sly]

I know that most of the guys are bullish on facial hair; but I vote No.  You have such a clean cut, military, athletic look - why look like so many others with a goatee?

[slymyke]

I think you could pull off either look really well.  It's worth a try for sure.

Give it a try for at least two weeks.  If you don't like it you look good clean shaven anyway.

So far, so good.  I'd let it keep growing.

[Mr Jules]

always a goatee, please.

[baldbob]

Thanks for the replies guys. I figured I'll let it go at least until the end of the vacation and see how it looks. I'm on the fence and appreciate the input.

[Mikekoz13]

Keep it going for a while. I've had one so long now I don't remember what I look like without it.

Bit hard to tell, as it's not defined, but a goatee always looks good

[Mike E. P.]

I find the goatee is easy to grow.  I alternate during the year between a beard, goatee, and clean shaven.  When I get bored, I change.  Unlike the hair on my head, the hair on my face always comes back!
