    I can’t grow a full beard for shit and am thinking of looking into permanent removal

    My stache though is hilarious, if I grow it out without the beard I instantly look like I’ve aged myself 40 years. Something not helped by the fact that my chosen look is suspenders on a tucked in button down and alternating on khakis vs jeans.

    I look like microbrewery ned flanders.

      I’m so confused. I’m just imagining you clean shaven, and a full head of fabio hair. But then you stop shaving, and the hair starts growing out of your face, but the longer your face hair gets, the shorter your head hair gets. Until eventually you’re totally bald up top.

      Yes, my imagination IS very cartoonish.

          My brother is balding and has full facial hair. I have a full head of hair, but can’t grow anything beyond an embarrassing teenage stache.

            This feels like an unaired pilot for a 70s comic book saterday morning superhero show.

            “WITH THEIR RINGS COMBINED, THEIR HAIR GROWS IN MODERATION!!! THEY ARE, BABYFACE JOHN, AND BALD JOHNSON!!!”

            Ok, definately need new names. I was trying to go for “John Johnson”, except you’re both two half of it…

            But somehow I made your brother into a name that sounds like a well cleaned penis.

            My username makes sense now, doesn’t it?

        If comment-OP concentrates for a minute, they can “flex” inward. Their Fabio-hair is drawn inwards and so is their facial hair until they seem completely clean-shaven. Then with a gasp they open their mouth and a long vine of hair spews out to strike down their enemies. Once the villains are downed, they can “flex” the hair back in through their mouth, and push it out of their head and face like before to look totally normal. They’re planning to become a superhero soon, but they just can’t think of a good hero name.

      If it helps, my beard was super patchy underneath the 3 feet of hair that completely covers it up if it still is. Growing facial hair for most people is about being able to get through the patchy part. Movember helps if you want social cover. By the end of that month, if it still looks bad, you can decide then if it’s worth continuing or shave it off when everyone else does. Secretly, that is pretty much the whole point of movember, a socially sanctioned event where no matter how bad it looks, you aren’t supposed to shave it off. And it’s for awareness of men’s health issues. But mostly the first thing, hehe.
