Oh man.

We need a minute of silence, please.

I was using the clippers to just trim my righteous totally chick-digged beard.... and then, the unthinkable. A twitch, a spasm, intervention from Satan; call it what you will. Whatever it was, it shaved a rectangular spot right off from my cheek.

I know, I know, I'll give you a few seconds to compose yourselves. There, there.

So, obviously, I had to shave it all off after. I still used the number one guard on the clippers so I'm not CLEAN shaven, I'm back to the 5-o-clock shadow-y look.... which is a fucking tragedy since the beard had been working so good, dammit.

I can grow it back in a couple of weeks, sure, but all the lost time!! Oh, the misery.

Frosty Susan meets the Shredding Pussy and Twitch razor

That is almost exactly how I reacted.

post pics!

Heh, been there before, my friend. I just use a straight razor to shave (and a beard trimmer on the goatee) and sometimes shave too close to the goatee and lose some of it. Then I shave off the 'tee and all. Though, sometimes (like...right now, actually), I get tired of the 'tee and shave it off. Huh...maybe I'll join you, my clean-shaven friend!

This happenned to me when I was learning to take care of my beard... Be strong, Calleja. It will be back befor you even know it.

Oh man, I hate when that happens. I've been forced to groom my Magnum down to a Higgins because of yawning or twitching. Have comfort in knowing that your beard will be back before you know it.

Webcam is all you get, I'm afraid:

I tried to do a Home Alone face here.. but I needed the other hand to take the snapshot. tee hee.


So sad.


Still sexy, though. Right?

RIGHT?!

I think the stubble looks better on you than the thick beard you had before.

I don't recall what you looked like before, but honestly? You've got a slight bit more than a 5 o'clock shadow there, man. I'm fucking jealous because I can't even pull that off.

Honestly? It kinda works for ya! I say keep it trimmed like that!

The sort of decent pic I have with how my beard used to be is this one:


but that's after 2 hours of pain and sweating.
...
Actually, that makes it sexier, doesn't it?

God, I'm so sorry! the fully grown beard looks much better on you than that stubble. But don't worry! In about a week you'll have something more decent. Not your full manliness yet, but something not to be ashamed of!

Yep, I agree with the Tegster: the full grown looks much better. But what you have now isn't horrendous, either.

Make up your mind, Nicolas!

He hadn't seen it fully grown! Your after-tattoo picture has made him see the light! He now speaks true words.

Fine! You're a sexy Mexican beast that every woman craves, no matter how your facial hair appears.

And yes, you can put that in your sig.

The Tegster! I like being called by deformations of my original nickname! Yeah!

(Aw, this was supposed to go together with my previous post! Ninja'd!)

.... alright, how about some female opinions now, maybe? aranoid:

Gimme a minute! *finishes putting on his eyeliner*

Hey Teg, does this sun dress make me look fat?

It does not affect your current level of attractiveness or lack thereof.

Oh, not at all! You look delightful sweetie, now go and tell Fernando how sexy he looks!

Lesbians don't like you wth a full beard, but some men do. I don't find that surprising at all.

You're not at all sexy anymore. I retract my offer to lead you to promiscuous Southern hotties. And you can forget about going for a pastrami sandwich before, too!

..No, but really, it still looks good.

But you prefer the beard?

By a tiny little margin. It looks good thin, too. You're just a handsome devil, Calleja. No gettin' around it.

Oh, you.


I had predicted much more comments on my wall behind me, though.

Hey, what's that on the wall behind you?

Heh, I was thinking more of the "I can't believe you have a huge U2 poster!!!" sort of thing, but since you asked and EvE is like an hour way from finishing downloading:



Don't worry, the Beatles paraphernalia is there, just not at that angle.

The wall behind my computer as naught but a window, but alas, my paltry facial hair is undeserving of such a thread.

It should be a crime if you can have a bitchin' smexy beard and you choose not to. 40 lashes.

- Philo-B., who looks like a wispy, patchy blonde goat whenever he tries to grow anything on the lower portions of his face.

It worked!! Re-opened!

I've been flirting a lot with this girl from Mexico City who might be visiting soon (I'm about 2 hrs away), but she's gone on record saying she prefers me with the sort-of-stubble you see in the pictures here than with a beard beard... but I was working on my beard and looking forward to having it all big and glorious again!

What do you guys think? Shave it off for a girl?

Your face, dude. You gotta live with it. Ya look great with either style.

Go down just to the mustache. That will drive the girls crazy.

I've NEVER had just a mustache... it's like the only facial hair style I've never tried... I don't know, I think you need an epic Tom Selleck-like one for it not to look ridiculous....


I might still try it soon, though.... hmmm

My advice is solid. Pay no attention to others. 'Stache away!

I think you should go 100% Snidely Whiplash.

Espy, this is terrible advice for about 98% of all men. They look soooo creepy by themselves on most guys.

Quick, someone photoshop my pictures in this thread to show how I'd look with a mustache to see if I'm one of the 2% than can pull it off! pleaseeeeeee?

:'( Don't do it, Fernando. :waah:

Dude, what if it LOOKS GOOD?

IT WOOOOOOON'T

Ok in the OFF CHANCE that it looks good I will concede this argument.... but it won't.

This is why I need the photoshop skills that I sorely lack... to see if my mustache would be of the good or bad kind.

Every so many months (maybe 6-10) I shave everything off my face to sort of 'reset' my beard. The next time I do it, I have resolved to shave it down to a mustache and wear it for a week, whether it looks good or bad.

I just want to say I've done it. You have no idea how much mileage I've gotten out of the fact that I once (long, long ago) sported a mullet. People hear this and they think "Wow, that guy doesn't play by the rules! He lives!"*

* - They might not actually think this.

No, they cringe at the mental image.

I did.

Rob, if you really lived and didn't play by the rules, instead of going , you would have gone "Pfft, whatever." and then you would have hopped on your motorcycle and picked up a chainsmoking woman who is out of the job and has trouble spelling.

BOOM. DONE. See how sad the mustache makes you???

I LOOK LIKE MARIO!!! AWESOMEEE!!

CG, it's useless, let him go ahead and make himself less sexy if he wants to... u_u

There's a place in hell for people like him.

Alas, it was a false image, and my confidence is now shattered. My self-esteem is, after all, 87% based on the opinion of Mexicans.

See, this is why I didn't want him to do it. Men are hypnotized by their mustaches and end up thinking they look better than they do. Sigh* No more sex for poor Fernando. Not even from that one desperate chick sipping a Cosmo in the corner of the bar...

Oh come on don't be so dramatic, I could glue rat hair on my face and I'd still get SOME sex.


what?

:laugh:

Yeah but no. Hang up your condom holster, cowboy.

Yep, only some men are made for moustaches.

Calleja, you need to grow a beard and take a picture of your face with it, facing to the camera, nothing fancy. Then shave and take the exact same pictures. Then you can very easily check any facial hair style you want with very little skills! Even crazy things! I'll even do it for you if you want.

Can't the pic of the day of my tattoo that's on the first page of this thread work as the beard pic? I'm not at full beard levels yet, more like... half beard.

Yes.
For a beardless pic, I'm going to use your 'sad' picture from this thread unless you gimme something better!

I'll soon be posting the results, but hear me: what you need to do if you want to try any weird style is: grow a full beard, then shave what parts are not needed. Keep the weird style for a full day (important! It might grow on you), upload some pics and, if you don't like it, shave it off.

Let him do it and then make fun of him for being ugly. You know, like he did for you and your red hair?

OK, I will say it. You look terrible with a beard either short or long.

Ostia, sembla El Frutero, d'aquell programa que feien fa anys a Telecinco.

My dad has always had a mustache. He was trimming it one morning, forgot that he changed the setting on the clippers, and shaved half of it right off. He looked so weird without a mustache. It's one of maybe 3 times in 30+ years that I have seen him with a naked lip.

quick 5 minute job.

goatee


stache only

D:

I'd look sad with a stache like that

Keep the shorter beard. When you grow it out you start looking like a homeless person.

This kind of threads are the ones that are messing with my heart. I'm going to die one of these days. Die, I tell you.

This is a mistake. I do not lead you wrong, lo, I lead you to mustachey waters that will re-invigorate your bald soul.

Say that to Morphine's face, I dare you.
