At this point I only am capable of Tiste level sideburns.
Starting to get the chin going, but little stache progress.
One day, I can only hope to go dktorode on people.

I cannot grow facial hair so can't join this contest, this does not upset me particularly though, I think I would look odd with a beard. Though I will try and find a photos of Lucy's beard as he has a pretty spectacular one.... well an untamed one anyway

Ha. I just shaved off my beard. Got too damn itchy. I don't know how I ever sported one for two years.

The beard itself isn't itchy, it when it grows.
It's hell.
I haven't seen my own chin for 5 years.
I rock.

My sister's boyfriend and I challenged each other to grow a christmas beard. I personally think having a beard is bitchin, but my wife does not....and neither does my sister. There is $50 on the line for the first man who gives in to the womens' demands and shaves. There is also a 1 week moustache-only cooldown period before either of us is allowed to go fully baby-faced again, even after christmas.
He is totally winning right now. My facial hair is patchy, red and sticks straight out. After only 2 weeks his looks like a normal beard and mine looks completely shitty.
Anybody else want to join in?
Post before, during and after pics if you got em.

Sounds like a challenge...well, I do like being clean-shaven, but I'm up for this! I'll give it a week, and see if contiuing will kill my chances of ever getting back into that kindergarten.

Stupid army regs prevent me from growing facial hair except for Movember, and I've done that for the last 2 years. You've seen the results. I think Centz has a pic of me with a (truly shitty) goatee somewhere.

Glad to see I'm not alone. I haven't caved yet, though the wife winces every time I go in for the kill.
At 2.25 weeks now, it looks as shitty as it did after 1.
Ha.
Can't wait til it gets even longer and scragglier.

Yeah, i've only shaved my chin whiskers once in 10 years, and then just to prove to my gf that i could actually do it. I felt kinda naked.
I've always been crazy but its kept me from going insane.

I like stroking my moustache the best. What a great invention. The moustache.
Its kinda fun to knuckle the moustache too...like thom merrelin in Wheel of Time.

I usually pull the beard underneath my chin whenever I ponder the big questions in life (team selection on fantasy). Used to be I'd pull my chin before I got a proper beard. It looked ridiculous.

I find myself twisting my beard a lot. It's turned into a compulsion, and I'm concerned about what it will translate to when I shave.

VERY NERALY shaved today. But I remembered this at the last second. A fine patchwork is now forming on my youthful features.

A COMPLIMENT
from one of the ladies I work with. Mind, she's old and was probably just saying it to be nice, but it was a positive comment from a member of the opposite gender. I take it as a win.
gotta get some pics of this ridiculous scruff up here soon.
not shaving is awesome.

That first "holy crap I might actually be able to pull off a presentable beard" moment is great.

meh, I've had a goatee going since....august? I think.
I shave off the moustache and the scraggy sideburns regularly (used to do it daily)
the goatee stays untill it grows too long. then, instead of trimming it, I shave it off and let it grow again.
I'm a lazy bastard like that.

My beard is coming along nicely atm, though I have a 70's party on Saturday so I may get rid of the middle for sideburnage...

I usually keep the main goatee and a line along my jaw line connected to my sideburns. Frames my face quite well.
Basically I shave my cheeks and under my jaw.
Now in the spirit of this challenge I'm letting it grow. I'm going full beard.
I have an advantage though. I don't have any woman to please.
And yes, beard twisting and stroking is awesome.
And there's a Zombie Walk Friday in town which I might attend so beard covered in blood will rock.
