Full Beards and Shaved Heads

Well, I am sure that we have talked about this topic before, but I can't find it.  Anyway, it seems that most sly guys have the goatee and mustache look.  But I know that there are a few men like our own JohnMont, who wear the sly look and full beard well.  Anyway, I was inspired to write about this since I got a new laptop and can more easily put new pics up.  So now my current photo shows me about 9 years ago with a full beard and shaved head.  I kind of actually like the full big beard look with the shaved head.  But while I have dated while sly, I'm afraid that the full big beard look could scare some women off.  Plus I serve on my church's worship team, so I feel that a more trimmed beard or goatee is better in that setting.  Anyway, what do you think about my full beard biker look?  Also what have  been your experiences with full beards and shaved heads....especially big beards?

JDog:
Marsh your pic of the full  beard and sly dome looks good. I think there is a point though when large full beards and a shaved head doesnt look very good,especially scraggly unkept beards. If I could, I would grow a full beard but I can only grow hair on my upper lip and chin and nowhere else.

Paul:
Personally I think the full beard/sly look is awesome, but like JDog, I think it looks best when it is trimmed down and not full.  Am actually planning on the same look over Christmas vacation.  Go for it if its you marsh.  As for your church, we have a sly guy with full beard in ours and no one finds it offensive, in fact aren't church people supposed to be the MOST forgiving?  As we have always said, you have to be yourself!!!

Actually, my church IS very forgiving.  Having a beard would be no problem.  But I will be taking a greater role, moving from being on the worship choir to being a background vocalist.  So I was thinking it would  be less distracting if I didn't do the BIG beard thing.  It would be different if we were a biker church.  But a trimmed beard like JohnMont would be probably what I would do.  The second thing that keeps me from growing out a beard is that I need to make a change in employment.  I believe that the sly look is not a problem here in Seattle.  But I think conservative is better when looking for work though.

Paul:
All good points marsh.  Do what ya HAVE to do to make your life what it needs to be.  Know ya got the suppot here.
