They all end up looking like Rag N Bone Man. Which is not a good thing. A well groomed beard on a thin face is a good look for any age of man. Some 32 year old waddler with one looks horrendous. What is it with you and fat people, m9? Traumatic experience on a crowded train at Doncaster? 1 hour ago, scottsdad said: In the James Bond novels, M always refused to employ men who "wore beards". Fair point. How's a spy supposed to apply a false moustache if they've already got a real one? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beards do tend to get a bit of hate and divide opinion. I often find the people who dislike them are unable to grow one *I'm not fat, quite lean in fact, maybe even muscular perhaps? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can grow one I just think they look ridiculous on folk who don't keep on top of them. As in nice and trim. Most beards are probably absolutely hackett too.

DiegoDiego Posted March 18, 2022 Share Posted March 18, 2022 I've had a beard for years. Originally, the percentage of men with beards was far smaller than the percentage of women who liked men with beards. That ratio has somewhat changed over the ensuing decades.That said, my choice to have a beard was all out of laziness. f**k shaving every day. And those who have a beard but shave the edges, you're just getting the worst of both worlds. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe that says a lot about your own personal hygiene. Surely to goodness you wash and use soap/shampoo in the shower and would treat your beard the same way you would the hair on your head or your pubic region. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do agree, it's absolutely murder to try and trim a long beard yourself, when it gets to the point that it's longer than any guards. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What does my personal hygiene have to do with clatty bastards with beards clearly not washing them every morning in the shower? -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottsdad Posted March 18, 2022 Share Posted March 18, 2022 I grew a beard a few years ago. Turns out I'm one of those weirdos with different facial hair colour to head hair colour. My beard came in a weird ginger/grey combo whilst my hair is black/grey. It lasted about a fortnight. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, mine's notably more ginger. Now that the melanin is on its way out, it's become Joseph's Beard of Many Colours. Should be full Gandalf in ten years' time, and I can finally fulfil my purpose of playing Santa Claus in shopping centre grottos. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve_Wilkos Posted March 19, 2022 Share Posted March 19, 2022 A beard can be the making of a man, but there are red flags as soon as someone makes it a key component of their personality. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Add in guys below average height for the perfect awful look. Needless to say, I am short, chubby and have a beard. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
