Ah, I see
Then yes- I agree, sorry bout that.

Low quality pic here due to my good camera being broken. Snapped this one just now on a whim cause I happened to do my twice-annual shave and haircut yesterday.

With the beard trends it's kind of the thing that started with hipsters around 2010 or a little later. Now you have lumbersexuals also (part hipster, part metrosexual, dressed in flanel and jeans with a beard essentially). The 60's had hippies, current day has lumbersexuals, hipsters, and other variations...lol.

The current take is that beards are falling out of fashion though. They say a lot of people are takin them off and going mustache, more of an 1800's feel (wyatt earp, etc).

My facial hair consists of a stache and Chubba. Sort of a Van Dyke thing.
I was going for a Buffalo Bill look...but on me it turned out more like Billy Goat Bob.

I tyink "lumbersexual" started because many businesses up north just REFUSE to sht off the air conditioner even in winter!! the tren of the last few years is to keep restaraunts, coffee shops, offices, stores, etc QUITE COLD!! I can under stand the need to wear flannel shirts!!... nothing to do with fashion statement.. ALL to do with not shivering...

esp when you are like me and have a little body!! (which seems the little guys wearin the flannels...).

I guess it's time for me to grow the ponytail back, I suppose. Cut it off in 77. I've had some sort of hair-on-the-face since well before I could pull it off properly.

Hawaiian shirts and sandals, check.

Goatee, CHECK!!!! Hair? After I went into BMTS, I kept the haircut. Gimme a razor and I'll do my own field haircut. I'm cheap when it comes to spending my money on cutting hair....... Wifie love to cut my hair because it's SO easy to do. However, IF I can find my photos from when I was in my early 20's, I do have a pic. of my hair being BELOW my waistline on my back...........

Sorry. I have psoriasis and find a shaved head more comfortable. Don't hate!

Sadly, middle age and Italian heritage have me joining you guys in the facial hair trend. Luckily Drew's old eyes and his own facial hair make it so he doesn't notice.

I grew up in the 80's so I do wear a Mullet and been sporting one since 1983. I am not a hippie at all, but have no problem hanging out with them. I have never grown a beard because mullet + beard = Jesus look?

I have had it all. Hair to the middle of my back, Mullet, Goatee, full beard, Mohawk, Slick back, Perm, Wave, Ducktail. My most recent hair style had the classy name of 'Male Pattern Baldness' That was close to 20 years ago. I have been bald by choice ever since. Too many of the 'residents' at my current place of employment have the shaved head full beard thing going, so I will never do that! And, absolutely none of that has anything to do with why I have a school bus in my back yard.
