Pretty much all my life I have kept a clean shaven face. Recently I've decided to grow out some facial hair. I was wondering what the men of Foo roll with. Full beard, mustache, goatee or other? I found a chart with some styles to get the ideas rolling. Any favorites from you or your significant other?

Normally a Van Dike. Currently inching towards a Rasputin, in more ways than one.

These were two years ago, last year I attempted a Hulihee. I'm not sure what the plans are this year.

Going for a pencil moustache. Can't get it right just yet so now it's a thick pencil moustache.

Oh, and major props to actors with lame facial hair like M. Wahlberg, J. Depp and L. Dicaprio for lowering the bar for beards. Makes it easier for the rest of us.

they didn't call him "the beard" for nothing....

I usually grow a meager imitation every winter. In fact I plan to stop shaving after this morning.

my face has the old full beard or stubbly beard, depending on how lazy I am...unless I feel froggy and shave it down to a Van ****, or cop standard, or completely off. My ass seems to have grown a Rasputin. :eek:

My routine is
Spring and Summer= Goatee
Fall = Van d.
First snowfall to spring= short box beard
I'm in the later at the moment. Hopefully, my 8 month old doesn't decide to yank on it.

Full beard and stash. Goes from English butler to Mountian man, then back when I get a haircut.

Take the b off of a certain poster who resides in Amsterdam to find another bizarre one.

Full beard year round. Trimmed very short in summer, and bushier for warmth in the winter.

Although the lady thinks the stubble is sexy she prefers things to be drag queen smooth if I am going to put my face anywhere near hers... my daughters think all the grey in the friskers makes me look older and am pretty sure I lose ten years when I am clean shaven.

On the bright side, I can't grow anything but a porn stache anyways.

I think in the realm of pro cycling, Geoff Kabush has the best sidburns. Awesome.

Handlestache with a soul patch.

You know what I don't understand? Super-duper short mustaches, like a cop stache but only kept about 1/4" long. Make up yer minds, fellas.

When the temperature drops below 40F for my morning commute, I grow my beard.

When it warms up above 70F for my afternoon commute, I leave only the 'stache.

My pencil moustache is coming along nicely, if I may say so myself. It's a little more work but it reflects my civilized nature and that I am a man of peace. I must order somemore moustache wax!
