Beards

[midlifeaspie]

Mine would have a lot more grey than Trig's.  A wide stripe down each side and another stripe down the middle.

You guys  .

That's not gray/grey in your beards.  It's silver.  You've got to learn to accentuate the positive.

[Phallacy]

Having a beard would be cool, but I wonder why I'm still not able to grow one now. Just some strange neck stubble.

Thanks your Majesty.

And here's a little ode to you:

[Trigger 11]

I started going grey in my early 20s...a gift from my Mum. It used to suck, but now it makes me think of her as a little part of her is with me (in my DNA).

Thank you.  I'm blushing.  I'd never heard that song before.

I cut myself shaving this morning, with my electric shaver.  I tend to hurry when I'm shaving since it's a pain in the ass and I want to get it over with so that I can do other things, and my electric shaver is a bit aggressive and cuts the skin if I press too hard.

I hate shaving. Always have.
Problem one is that whenever I grow a beard I grow really thich around the lips and chin and sparely and randomly in degrees of thickness around the cheeks and it looks bad. So goatees work fine with me. A week and I have a decent enough goatee. Then come problem number two. I grow a mo as part of a goatee and invariably get a cold or hayfever and end up snotting into my mo for a couple of weeks before i say "Oh fuck this shit off my lip" and i shave it all off in disgust.

I hate shaving too. I'd let it grow indefinitely if it looked better and if it didn't itch so much after a while.

[Trigger 11]

I used to cut myself with electric shavers too. Very sensitive skin and can't do razor blades at all. Then I started using hair trimmers and just maintaing a very short stubble, which is what I have now. Much easier on my skin although they too sometimes get stuck on the skin around my adam's apple and I bleed.

I can't stand electric shavers. Looks like I have the plague, every time after shaving.

[Squidusa]

I hate shaving but then I hate hair on my face altogether , I shave nearly every day (aim to shave every day anyway) because it irritates me , leaves me with some horrible marks though.

I intend to have laser hair removal surgery on it at some point in the future.
No need to re-iterate my hatred of my own facial hair I think.

There's something funny in there between cutting yourself shaving and it being a pain in the ass.

Need to shave off mine. Can't have it when I'm working.

Corporate policy?  Seems kind of barbaric.  I had to deal with a no facial hair policy back when I worked at DisneyWorld in college.

It's frowned upon but it's not forbidden. It's just that I usually look like a bum when I have a beard.

 So they made a speshul policy just for you?
