Semi-Sly:
I have been wearing facial hair now for most three years and just got sick of it.  And there’s a barber I have noticed more and more of the return of the guys shaving off their beards And wearing only a mustache.

I went to a fellow barber on Saturday and treated myself to a hot towel straight razor head and face shave retaining my eyebrows and mustache.  I have been in several social situation since we’re people know me very well and no one seems to have noticed!

@Semi-Sly , I've noticed that too. Mustache only seems to be the newest trend. Right now I'm sporting a high and tight recon and letting the beard fill in next to the goatee. I'm not sure hair on the top with shaved sides and back are a good look for me, but it's something different for awhile. When I go back to shaving my head, I think I'll try the mustache only look.

The solo mustache is most defiantly making a come-back, and I don't think it is just for Movember.  Granted, many are only for Movember, but they are gaining popularity.  I guess the old porn-stache idea is finally over.

A solo mustache is also a lot easier for younger guys since for most of us, the mustache is the first area of facial hair development.

Razorhead:
I’ve shaved off my beard in the past and only a few people noticed. People liked it. But Going clean shaven with a bald head was something to get used to! I felt completely naked. For thanksgiving, I was thinking of shaving the beard off again just growing it back to just a short scruff.

I was going to grow some scruff on the head for winter…..so I didn’t shave for a week. but I am now very thin on top so I just shaved it all off. It was nice to have my smooth dome back.

@Razorhead , I know what you mean. My head was getting cold so I started shaving only the sides and back. I still have pretty good coverage on top, and the stubble feels pretty thick as it starts growing. I made it 3 weeks and shaved it off. As it grows out, it feels like fine baby hair, and doesn't look good. I guess I just have to admit my days of having hair are done. Two days ago I shaved it all, and boy it felt amazing!

I'm still thinking about shaving the beard and just keeping the mustache.
