Do I grow a beard.

[positively-negative]

I just went for a piss and as I was washing my hands I looked in the mirror and realised I hadn't shaved for a few days. My first thoughts were "shit I better have a shave tonight." But the more I think about it, a beard would be an interesting experiment, even if it will annoy the shit out of my mum.

Need help. My flatmate is unsure, so am I.

To beard or not to beard, that is the question.
Whether it is nobler in the mind to grow
The Stubble and Whiskers of outrageous Fortune.
Or to take razor against a sea of hairs
And by shaving them end them. To cut, to stop.

I was going to do the whole soliloquy, but it was getting too hard.

Pics... would be... helpful...

But whatever...

Forgot current picture:

[CheeseManBlue]

uh, if you choose to not shave (which you should), then you must post a new pic every day in this thread so we can see the progress.

I'm bearding it up atm. But it's more out of sheer laziness than anything else.

Also, i don't want to deal with that fresh "My face feels like it's been lite on fire" feel.

I'm on 3 weeks now. It doesn't look pretty.

[Darkside7000]

I'm trying to grow one now. It's only been about two or so weeks and it's sort of looks "meh." I say go for it, maybe you'll have better luck than me.

Actually, it may not look bad... you should post updates, as someone has said...

Well that picture I posted is just over a week, and I wouldn't let it get entirely out of hand. But I definitly would post updates on progress if I do.

grow a long, flat beard and then pin it up over your face!

[Lucy]

No, please dont :(

[l0vemetal]

Just for the sake of asking, are you a natural blonde? Does your facial hair grow in in a light colour? I really couldn't tell from your current pic up there.

But if that's the case, I wouldn't, as a lightly-coloured beard always looks like shit. But if otherwise, go for it. I mean, it's not like you're signing yourself to a second mortgage or anything - it's not a life-altering decision. Don't like it? Shave it! =]

Myself, I've never eaten meat, so I don't have those steroids they pump into the livestock pumping through my body, so at the humble age of 20, my beard is still choppy and looks like ass. I like it though.

[LegendaryAwesome]

Grow one. You can always shave it off if you end up not wanting it anyway...

[MrKickyourbutt]

Real chicks think beards are sexy.

I am quite a dark blond, and my facial hair is a shade darker than my hair.

Yeah well that is kinda the approach that I'm taking, but I just wanted to make sure that I am only mostly delusional, not completely. Plus I wanted an excuse to improve Shakespeare.

[ArtistJ]

funny, I just took this week off work so i could re-grow mine, 2days down, 3to go until full beard-dum.e

the rule of thumb is,

Beard = single
clean shaven = girlfriend
just a 'stache = gay/cop

Nah, I want something far more subtle. Like Michael Anthony, it's there, but not too noticable or stated.

[Lucozadedude]

Curious as to what you'd look like?

Pick a beard and I'll 'shop it onto your face...

[Rucklo]

need more wait for non puny beard growth.
must have strong beard, like mine.

Yes my king. I am waiting for more growth. Well apart from a few bits I trimmed cause I don't want it there.

hmm.. Your beard is work in progress. How old were you before you first started shaving?? The more you shave, the more quicker and courser it gets when it grows back~~~ Then you could probably consider a fully-fledged beard =oD

[ghostface619]

hmmm..... tom = beard

so, why dont you too?

[positively-negative]

You know, the more I get used to this beard idea, the more I like it. I'm almost scared that I'll get too used to it.

[Jesse-Ray]

You'd look good with the full around the face but definetly no moustache region, also isn't it extremely late in en zed at the moment?

Agreed.

[DingoTheDog]

Too young for true godly beardiness. You will end up with a pubic growth on your chin and half way up your cheeks.

People will see and think "Oh look a peasent student type who is trying to look older"

However in saying that, there comes a critical time in every mans life, where he must grow facial hair, just to ensure that he does not carry a recessive Ginger gene. If not done you may one day have ginger kids! (Dun dun dunnnnnnn!).

So grow it for a wee while, determine if it is ginger if so marry an Asian. Shave the fucker down to desginer stubble at best. Or maybe a wee clit rubbing soul patch.

That is only cause of the angle I was taking it at. And yes it is late(4:49am,) but I couldn't sleep and I don't have a class till 12pm anyway.
