Back full circle

[JohnMont]

So here I am -- photo today (Sept. 13)  with beard back .    I think i'm done experimenting for the time being ....   it's nice to just have a standard routine; shave every one or two days; trimm up the beard  every few days. .... 

When I think back to how much time I had to spend on "my hair" even with an ivy league arranging the front so it'd look right; .....   can't imagine all that fuss now.   I love not combing/ brushing ; just splash water on the noggin while I'm washing my face ... and that's it !!

The Freedom of Sly  ... feels good .

Im jealous....Ol John just stole all the slyness from everyone.  Looks good bro....yeah ya look better with the wiskers....keeper sly bro

John,  Looks great, Bro,  I think the beard on you is definitely the way to go.  Me???  Well I gave up on the half goat yesterday and I'm back to the soul patch below the lower lip.  Kinda the BaldRob look.  I think I'll keep it this way for awhile anyways.  It's easy to maintain and just gives the face a little something.

The bearded Sly JohnMont is the best look for you mate.

[Scott]

Looks good John... it's your look.

John, the beard looks great with your slick dome!
I can't get over how smooth your head looks, definitely super sly and a good look for you, bro.
I am glad you have found a routine you want to stick with. I sometimes think it's better with less fussing around over this and that. Find something that works for us and then make it part of our regimen. Good to see you back in the pic.

Blimey - it's so hard to keep up! Only yesterday I complimenting John Mont on the Mr Clean look & now John, you have a full beard again! 

& Lance, bro, I thought you'd only just shaved your beard off (aka the new job) - now you're telling us you're thinking of growing a full beard!   

I'm confused & i need coffee!

Yeah man, I like doing that to mess with people.  To be totally honest, I'm not even really shaved.  The old pics I use to use are of my cousin.      Naw, J/K.  I ended up not taking the grocery job because another job called 2 nights ago and hired me.  It's a general cleaning job that has a lot better hours so that I will not be worn out.  Basically it's like 6pm to midnight M-F.  Home by a decent time to still get sleep, decent starting pay, and days off to still watch my son and go to school next year.  Can basically look like whatever I want and wear whatever.  Hence, keeping the facial hair. 

Oh crap.  Just realized I hijacked this thread.     Sorry John and other slys.  Commence butt chewing...NOW!

I don't mind.  I've hijacked many a thread myself; not realizing it wasn't a 'kosher' thing to do.  sometimes it seems a natural thing to do ; like the way a subject can be changed in a regular conversation.  Anyway; I was concerned about ya; Lance, as I said in your other thread.  There is just something that sticks in my craw about being  TOLD what to look like ....   was a big issue with me growing up; and and I guess i'm still not over it. (( maybe one of the reason I shave my head now is that many guys in my line of work grow their hair and beards very long ) . ...   So , to say the least I was VERY sympathetic to your plight; and glad it is resolved.
