My hair is a strange beast. On top of my head it's so thick, it gives scissors trouble, yet I'm not hairy at all. Growing facial hair is a slow, arduous process that involves weeks of looking scruffy. There are certain areas on my face that refuse to grow hair, and therefore my beard has been trimmed over the years to deal with this phenomena.
I tried growing a moustache over a decade ago and gave up when I had my driver's license picture taken with it – and I looked like I would have a hard time speaking English.
However, now that I've had my beard for so long, I decided to grow out the lip rug to see if it looks any better with a) an existing beard and b) quite a few extra pounds, which has changed the shape of my face. Behold, this is what a week's worth of not shaving does to me
Love that hair!
Now, in a few days it should be completely loaded. Then I'll have a decision to make. Go for a goatee? Friendly Mutton Chops? A Jim Caldwell? Or just go back to the chin curtain?
How about you, dear readers? What would you like to see?
