Title: Trying the samity sam look. What do you guys think
Post by: sahil15 on February 22, 2013, 06:44:59 AM
Sorry not sure what this facial style is actually called so I just call it the samity sam look. I have had a goatee for some time so thought it was time for a change... Do you guys  think it suits me or is the goatee look better??

Thanks
Sahil

you are looking like a kung-fu master now  ;D I think it looks "dashing" (learned that word on this forum) but I personally like to goatee better, have you ever tried a full beard?

I tried that look myself a time or two years ago, and always went back to the mustache/goatee combination.  It just did not seem to work for me.  Probably just because the mustache/goatee combination was more mainstream and familiar.  It is nice to be able to experiment with different styles to see what works, but I am partial to the full beard and sly combination.

I hope I didn't hurt your feelings - you are still a good looking guy, its just my personal opinion

Interesting! but I hink I prefer the goatee you wascawee wabbit! (was that Elmer Fudd?) It looks as though you are a guy whose facial hair is pretty quick growing, so you can change your look relatively quickly

I think it looks good.  I like it better than the goat.

The best looking guy at the place I work at goes sly.  He works out a lot and the only hair he keeps is on his face.  He consistently changes his look.  I think you have the option to try an bunch of looks.  Take a pic of each one and then decide what you like best.

Looks good mate, very jealous, mine doesn't connect down the sides of my mouth.

You should thicken it out IMO and then see how you feel.

Sahil, might be because that's the way I first "met" you, but I like the original look better.

I think you wear both well......The only crime would have been to continue to wear that horseshoe you had before going sly. Nice shine on the head, BTW!

It's called the handle bar mustache. I tried out the look a while back, but I always end up back to a goatee.

sahil, I think the  Yosemite Sam looks good on you, but liked the goatee better...  

and don't sell yourself short on the full beard... (I think you would rock it!).

If I could grow a beard as you I would also try some of those  ;)

If I remember right you are 26 too, since when can you grow a beard like you have?

Hey Markus,

I have been able to grow a beard since I was 17.... My beard grows well but not as thick as I would like. Although the maximum I have let it grown is for about 2 months... And too be honest buy then it begins to irritate my skin. The 2 main advantages of my beard are that it grows back super quick and its not patchy.

I really want to try the super mario look given in the picture just for a laugh though. lol

the super mario would be great  ;) but seems hard to maintain  ;D

lol, beard transplant.  I think one of the other fellows said he had enough hair on his back and check that I would 'harvest' it to weave a carpet from my living room and have some left over. I could let you have the left overs for your transplant.

I did not have much of a beard until I was about 25 or so. And then it came in slowly.

I like both looks on you mate, the FU Manchu (the stache you are sporting at the moment) looks pretty cool, I think if you are liking the look wear it for a while. I personally don't think I could do the look myself, I've always been a Van dyke/Full beard kind of guy, and have never been 100% happy with how my moustache looks, but kudos to you for giving it a go!
