Title: What do we think?
Post by: leighmundo40 on January 03, 2013, 09:50:00 AM
So, as it was Christmas and I was away from work, I stopped shaving the old boat race every day. Clippered it with trimmers, but that was it (about 6days)

Yesterday, before shaving it all off ready for work, I messed around with a possible goatee.

What do we think people? Opinions?

Let the beard grow out a little bit more and keep it and shave the head is what I got to say. I think it would look good on you either way you decide though. Hope this helps O0

You know very well that most (if not all) of us are beard advocates. You know we will tell you to go for it. Most important of all, since you are here asking us about it, you know you want to.  ;)
Just remember that if you really do want to go for it, that all beards take time. Everyone here with a respectable beard will tell you the same. Good things will come if you hold out! Remember the 24 hour rule: Whenever you feel that you don't like it and you get the urge to shave it off, wait at least 24 hours before actually doing so. Chances are you'll tell yourself "What was I thinking??"

Lose the hats!  :x!

I must echo this sentiment. You will never be truly happy with who you are if you cannot accept yourself as you are. You've had plenty of time to get past that hurdle, leighmundo! Show us your mighty dome! (Not trying to be mean. Just using assertive reinforcement  ;) ).

Looks good bro. Needs more goat though. Let the facial hair grow in a bit more.

As one of the beard advocates that Natedawgy-Dawg mentioned.... I say, "Yes, let it grow in"     O0

+1 it's looks like you have good coverage so it should be easy to grow out.

Let the haters hate, I love hats. Unless you are using the to cover your baldness, in which case embrace the baldness.

Ahhhh so this is the infamous beard of Leigh! Doesn't look that bad to me, I can't even tell there is any grey in there yet, you really should have let it grow out a bit more, but I think everyone already knows my opinion on beards!

Thanks (I think!) I may give the goatee a go, even if it is to tick it off my bucket list of things to do!

I dont wear my hat at work! or out in restaurants etc!

"Hello, my name is Leighmundo and I am addicted to wearing hats"

Acceptance is the first step! I like the stubbly look, I reckon a goat would be great.

Ive decided to wear MORE hats this year now! Great big fancy ones, with fruit and feathers and possibly small taxidermied animals!

As for the facial hair..the goatee may well be given the go!

Well, I did prepare a post in this thread yesterday, but I see that my tablet refused to accept my click of the POST button.

The goatee needs to run a little longer to be effective.  I don't see any bare patches, and your hair is a good solid dark color, so it should look good.

I think the hat is a keeper!

I think you will look better without hats just to say.

I think the face fur suits you. You're handsome wither way though.

And I wear hats all the time too -- hats for fashion are fine. Hats for hiding, not so much.
