The facial hair that suits the person’s face, especially if there’s an ethnic component to it. I generally prefer clean shaven or stubble, but well groomed and maintained facial hair can be attractive in almiost any configuration if it suits the person wearing it.
@medz@mike808 He really is too young for it to be that grey. Wonder if it is real.
Plus it totally still looks like him if he was trying not to be recognized, like Letterman.
@RiotDemon@Targaryen No they weren’t close to “ok.” They took the story for one awesome movie and used it to make three crappy one that screw up the continuity of the superior Lord of the Rings adaptations.
I’ll take the Rankin-Bass cartoon from the 1970’s any day.
I can’t blame Peter Jackson too much. He came in at the last minute and had to create approximately 2.3 films worth of filler off the top of his head. Even he admits they suck.
@llangley@RiotDemon Jason Momoa’s seems to get better looking with very role. Maybe he’s just working his way into better hair and makeup gigs, lol. See the pic from Atlantis, above, then these below.

LUMBERJACK IS THE ONLY WAY TO GO!!! IF YOU NEED FACIAL HAIR, JUST LET IT GROW!!! TRUST ME, YOU DON’T WANT TO FACE A NUCLEAR WINTER WITH JUST MUTTON CHOPS KEEPING YOUR FACE FROM ICING OVER!!! WHEN THE FRENCH ALLY THEMSELVES WITH WEST KOREA, THEIR INVASION WILL DRIVE US ALL INTO THE MOUNTAINS AND LET ME TELL YOU, WE WILL NEED ALL THE INSULATION WE CAN GROW!!! EVEN WITH APPROPRIATE BEDDING AND SHELTER, IT CAN GET NIPPY UP IN THE HIGHER ALTITUDES!!! ALSO, YOU WILL NEED FIRE!!! BUT TRY NOT TO START YOUR BEARD ON FIRE!!!
I like my husband’s full beard. He has had to keep it close due to work regulations but is changing employment and will be free to grow it full on lumberjack. Full lumberjack beards are definitely the best.
I voted for Burly Lumberjack Beard, because I would love to have one. But my beard gets uncontrollably frizzy and uncomfortable if I let it go beyond half an inch or so, so I stick to Tight-to-Face.
Also, some men’s faces just plain look better with at least something on them. John Cleese and Freddie Mercury were both very smart to grow moustaches.
@jst1ofknd That’s the reason my friend gives for having a full beard and butt length hair. Seems disengenuous to me with the hair at least. Getting it cut once a month would have to be easier than washing it and binding it every day.
I get my hair cut when it gets annoying and I go for the cheapest possible place. I really like it when my wife cuts my hair. Can’t get much cheaper than free.
My vote is for goatee… because that’s the only thing that looks good/grows right on me. I’m also blessed/cursed with slow growing and mostly light colored facial hair so that I can go 3-4 days before I start to look a little scruffy. Means I have to plan a month or two ahead if I ever want to take part in no-shave-November.
My husband had a beard when we started dating, he had a beard when we got married. He’d started the beard (he kept it neat and trimmed) in high school. I used to tease him that when he died, I was going to shave it off, just so I could see what he looked like without it.
Over twenty years into the marriage, he shaved it off, kept the mustache.
You know how Sam Elliot has that awesome mustache? And he’s just so damned good looking with that mustache? But in the show “Justify” it was shaved off? And he just looked weird?
That was my husband without his beard. I couldn’t wait until he grew it back. I never got used to it. He did grow it back, I think maybe he went six months with the shaving and got tired of having to do it so often.
I wish I looked good in a beard. I mean I haven’t grown one, but I assume I’d just look homeless and people would try to give me change. I wouldn’t look cool.
Favorite how? For yourself or family, or to look at and wonder how they grew that? One good thing about so many beards is now at Christmas, the store Santa’s usually have real beards. Little kids know the difference. It would be nice when you are the magic age and really believe, to think it really was Santa. Magic age…our school was only 1/2 Christian. Other 1/2 was Jewish. In kindergarten those kids were more than happy to tell the Catholic kids Santa was fake. In kindergarten and some for 1st grade the kids just didn’t believe them! By 2 or 3 grade they all knew the truth. It didn’t bother any of the kids when they were old enough, to know it wasn’t true. (I have a relative who was mad we mentioned Santa when her kid was in 5th grade. How dare we tell him the truth. We would destroy him. I’m not even sure 5th graders believe in Catholic school! That was weird. )
For me, it’s scruff from mid-spring to early autumn and full/close to face beard the rest of the time because, well, having warm facial hair during cold weather is really nice. I’ve been told I look better with scruff than the beard.
But ideologically, lumberjack beard is pretty dope if you can pull it off.
I didn’t see an option for none?

@emt305 The longer I look at this, the more insane he seems.
/giphy crazy eyes
None whatsoever.
Not entirely sure it’s the best, but I quite often find myself sportin’ the “eh, fuck it, I’ll shave tomorrow”.
A five o’clock shadow can be super attractive. IMO.
@lordbowen I call mine a Wednesday shadow.
For some reason this one has fallen out of favor in the last, idk, 80 years.
@djslack thanks a lot Chaplin…
Does nose hair count?
Since my natural facial hair is werewolf, I go clean. Yes, from just under the eyes down the neck.
ZZ Top? Duck Dynasty?
I’d get electrolysis myself, to avoid the scruff and constant irritation and hassle of shaving.
Only clean shaven for me
The facial hair that suits the person’s face, especially if there’s an ethnic component to it. I generally prefer clean shaven or stubble, but well groomed and maintained facial hair can be attractive in almiost any configuration if it suits the person wearing it.
But some are no. Just no. Freaky.
@moondrake Maybe he likes looking like he’s being reborn every day.

/giphy hi mom! get out of here!
Lumberjack is in second place? Just how many hipsters do we have here?
@TheFLP ugh.
/image burnsides
Unfortunately my mustache doesn’t connect to my beard so I settle for a full beard.
@Oneroundrobb Not Burnsides.
Mutton-chops.
@mike808 @Oneroundrobb Oddly enough, there doesn’t seem to be much info out there on Major General Mutton-chops.
The Stephen Colbeard.
@mike808 It’s so white.
@medz @mike808 He really is too young for it to be that grey. Wonder if it is real.
Plus it totally still looks like him if he was trying not to be recognized, like Letterman.
@medz @mike808 @smilingjack He was born in 1964, he probably has a white beard.
@medz Not nearly as white as Trump’s Cabinet, White House Staff, and the 2017, 2018, Spring, and Summer Interns.
Something like this:
Or maybe this:
@RiotDemon The first guys is Thorin Oakenshield from The Hobbit movies if anyone was curious. Also, they were ok movies.
@RiotDemon @Targaryen Hot dwarf.
@Targaryen the second one is Rollo from Vikings.
I apparently have a particular look that I enjoy in a man.
@Fuzzalini @RiotDemon @Targaryen
Or this!
@llangley goatee is fine. Not into dreds personally.
Edit: reminds me a bit of
/image Jason Momoa long hair
@RiotDemon that’s him! Also not into dreads but…he wears them well
@RiotDemon @Targaryen No they weren’t close to “ok.” They took the story for one awesome movie and used it to make three crappy one that screw up the continuity of the superior Lord of the Rings adaptations.

@llangley @RiotDemon he does wear them well. He seems to wear anything well, and probably nothing well also
@Fuzzalini @RiotDemon @Targaryen I like Kille better. But Aiden Turner’s on my hotties short list. Pun intended.

@llangley well, I feel silly.
@moondrake tried frontier… Wasn’t into it. Gave up after two episodes.
@Fuzzalini @llangley @RiotDemon Stargate is a fun tv series.
@Fuzzalini @RiotDemon @Targaryen watching it now on El Rey Network. 2 Atlantis and 2 SG-1 back to back. 4 hours shoots the hell out of my mornings!!

I can’t believe no one mentioned this.
@jst1ofknd I’m not sure if that was entertaining, disturbing or flat the fuck out frightening! Giggle
@LindyNC73
I wish I could say that’s me…
Well, except I imagine that guy isn’t married…
Alternating between “I haven’t shaved for 5 days” and “i just used my Phillips OneBlade because my skin breaks out if I go any closer”
I don’t like shaving. I have a beard as a result of that decision. I always say that my beard is proof that inaction is, in fact, an action.
I think my style is unkempt…
@jst1ofknd That’s the reason my friend gives for having a full beard and butt length hair. Seems disengenuous to me with the hair at least. Getting it cut once a month would have to be easier than washing it and binding it every day.
@jst1ofknd Lookin’ good! You look like a guy with medieval shit on his walls.
@moondrake
I get my hair cut when it gets annoying and I go for the cheapest possible place. I really like it when my wife cuts my hair. Can’t get much cheaper than free.
@therealjrn
No medieval stuff on my walls. If I lived alone I probably wouldn’t have anything on my walls…

I never bugged him about it after that.
So are these dorco razors?
@arussnfl They come from meh, so Imma wager they’re Dorko brand.
I wish I looked good in a beard. I mean I haven’t grown one, but I assume I’d just look homeless and people would try to give me change. I wouldn’t look cool.
@Targaryen
But you would get money handed to you just by walking down the street! That’s a win in my book…
@jst1ofknd True.
On me? Stubble.
How about “neck-beard”, but on a mostly bald man (check out the tuft) with a religious twist…?
@LindyNC73 Nope nope nope nope nooooooooooooooopppppppppppppppppppe
My Dad had mutton chops. I miss them immensely
I like clean shaven men.
@kittykat9180 and I love clean shaven women…
I have a photographer friend that grew a beard and he resembles Vincent Van Gogh currently.
@Targaryen Is he missing an ear?
@msklzannie Not yet, I mentioned that a while ago and he kind of laughed it off.
