Title: To goatee or not.
Post by: T.M on August 26, 2009, 04:42:34 AM
I've started to grow my goatee out for about a year and I'm wondering if I should shave it all off or keep it. Any suggestions? http://www.flickr.com/photos/38406873@N06/sets/72157622148175772/ I have a picture of me with a goatee and without at this page. Thanks!

Greetings, T.M.   IMO, you can swing it both ways.  I personally think you look more 'clean-cut' without it.   Just depends on what you're going for.

I like the goat. It's just enough to give you a little sophisticated look.

Welcome to the site TM.  Please make yourself and home and visit with us often.  The goat is your decision.  IMO you look best w/o it.

I personally prefer goatees/  But I look like crap without one, so I am biased.  :)

Notice that all of us who say "keep it" have a goatee.  What a biased bunch we are!

You do look good either way..And as you can see that advice is coming from a guy with a goat !

Cue ball is still a good look.  You will notice that it is always the one that gets all of the attention.   :*))

Aloha from one "goat" to another. I haven't heard about the opinion of the gal behind you? It's important to please yourself but also those whom are close to you.

hi there kahuna,

The girl behind me thinks the goat makes me look older and better.She's okay with me taking it off but I feel she likes the goat.haha

How about the lady behind you? The goat or no goat?

I'm going to keep mine. I'm kind of pale skinned to begin with and I don't want to look like I'm having chemo or something...

For the past 6 months I have kept a goat going (in various form, although the avatar has not been updated yet).  I think it makes alot of diffence in giving definition to your face.

Looks like the goat is a little thin and I think you would look fine without it

Have you received any female comments or from your friends on the look?

Good Luck!
