Beards, sprouting out everywhere like, well, bushy facial hair. There may not be much that today's hipsters and 'so called' Islamic State agree on, but they both seem to favour a big tickly beard. So where do you stand on beards? Nb, please don't stand on any beards.
I shave as little as I can get away with, but due to my job the max is about 3 days worth, so designer stubble it is.
I'm at the awkward stage where I have to shave at least twice a week, but can't grow any meaningful facial hair. If I leave it, it looks awful as i have the odd random hair spouting from my cheek, i'd say it's past bum fluff but still nothing worth shouting about. I'm 21 ffs, come on puberty hurry up.
I have something between stubble and a beard. Uber-Stubble. Sometimes grow a beard when I can't be arsed and that becomes quite magnificent.
Can't stand on mine (quite) yet. I was in a boozer in Kelso last year (day of the Champions League final). There was also a 'scooter rally'. Lambrettarists from all over the nation. That sort of thing happens in Kelso quite a lot. Big show ground. Anyway, there was this very cute female scooterist from Whitby who wanted to sit on my lap. I obviously thought, here we go then. So I asked the obvious question "why do you want to sit on my lap"? "Because you look like Santa and I was hoping you might give me a present". Obviously not the sort of present I had in mind then! Get tae f ck! B.t.w. HeppyHornet24 has confessed she's not a beard fan. She's probably indoctrinated her sister with this ludicrous preference too. So Orny and reids take note. Avoid the hirsute look if you wanna be in with a chance.
Stubble appears a day after shaving and I can't be arsed to shave everyday so the result is perma-stubble/beard.
The past year or so I've finally become able to grow a beard, but I'm not convinced by it. Grew one a few weeks back and someone said I looked like a tortured artist - shaved straight off!
Well remembered & correct (sorry Kelso). As for me personally, I may be considered 'ancient' compared with some of the posters on here but fortunately I have not yet started sprouting facial hair.
I'm 27 and without a beard I still get asked for identification everywhere I go, which is a real hassle with my foreign credentials. When I'm feeling down and need an easy win though, I shave it off and hit the clubs. There's nothing better for your self-esteem than having a burly bouncer validate your daily use of sunscreen and moisturiser by assuming you're 17 still
Ha! Well I doubt you'd be considered 'ancient' compared to me HH24. Thing is, I can entirely modify the Santa look anytime I like. Were I to think it's worth my while!
Delightful I'm sure. Try putting plenty of hair on top of the head as well! Or actually think Jim Leishman if you know who he is. That should get HH24 and sibling drooling once she's googled it.
Up until recently I was fairly bearded. Shaving is such a pain though that it's generally once a week. Mainly I look like a scruffy bar steward. The main issue is its going grey now with one particularly white patch on the left side of my mouth. It makes me look as if I've just eaten a doughnut.
My rule of thumb would be beard should not be longer than hair. As I don't have much hair I'm mostly stubbly like the meister. I don't think the big beard look is good and footballers particularly look weird with big beards imo.
