Yes! you should absolutely grow a beard. facial hair is what makes us men, not the *beep*. think about it; who would you rather take fishing non bearded man or bearded lady? I rest my case.

I really hope you listen to me on this one. I'm a mustache man myself, but it ain't for everyone.

Only if you're going to hunting camp for two weeks in November, or planning to play Joseph or one of the Three Wise Men in the Christmas pageant.

Asams, I would never seriously consider growing a beard. Instead, grow a moustache that swoops up to attach to your sideburns.

However, if you are dead set on bearding it up, I have to help a fellow UNC student make potentially disastrous decisions.

Also, i implore you to only listen to people who can produce beards in your consideration. it has been my experience that many women do not understand the beard/mustache, much akin to how men do not understand long painted fingernails. it's just one of those things.

I say try it, then when it is in full beard glory go with your gut and make your decision to keep or to abandon.

The only people who will tell you NOT to grow a beard are people who can't grow them.

The problem is I'm not even sure if I can grow a beard. I have no problem getting a mustache or hair growing around my jawline and neck, but I can't grow enough hair to get a nice connection between the mustache and the other facial hair.

Why do gays grow facial hair?

To hide the stretchmarks.

Sorry. Embarassed

That was classic.

I usually enjoy scruff over a beard. It makes me look more sexy/rugged and less like a hobo. That's just the look I'm going for though, the "I Am Not A Hobo" look.

I'd like to grow abeard but can't Embarassed

I have very fair hair, so it's just not to be.

It's weird, I get stuble after about 3 days of not shaving and it looks good, nice and dark and kind of cool (I think so and ex gf's also said the same, I have a kind of young face so I guess they liked the rugged contrast for a few days heh heh, or whatever, I dunno... )

But If I leave it to grow for over a week or so it just comes out this kind of white/blonde bland colour and never curls, it's just spiky. Looks godawful.

Anyway, I say the OP should go for it, everyone should try it at least once.

Maybe I too could have one if I buy some of that black spray advertised on Korean TV to cover up bald spots...!

Well, if you're one of those people who suffers from pseudofolliculitis, then by all means give it your best shot.

Here ya go, pick your poison.
