Beards can be useful men can eat
half their dinner and save the rest in
their beard for later.

Personally I pluck out my own chin hair as soon as I see it - the joys of getting
older. 😜

Eyebrows are good.
I dont understand why some people would shave them off, cos they wont grow back if you do that.

Since I was in high school and could actually grow a decent mustache I have just about constantly had at least some facial hair. Since my mid 20's I've bounced between a full beard and just a goatee. I have no idea what my chin and upper lip look like anymore. Unfortunately, I do know that the facial hair does add some to my age since the goat is now predominantly grey.
Depending on how much hair I have on the top of my head and on my face, I get age estimates anywhere from 35 to 50.

I definitely think the gray/white color patches help make the difference!

I personally hate every hair that grows out of my face.....that's why I pluck them!

Every woman has different feelings about facial hair on men, and at least for me, it depends on the man. Generally my preference is a good clean shaven face. But men with skin problems or heavy beards may have problems doing that. Or certain facial features look better certain ways. I don't mind a beard, but not too long or unruly. Goatee's are not really my thing, handle bar mustaches need the ends trimmed off. Some guys look sexy with that unshaven look, but sometimes it just looks like he's unkempt and lazy. And if it's scratchy that's a real mood killer if you know what I mean. I don't want your facial hair to give me facial rash.

My view about facial hair:

If you have a special woman in your life,
just do whatever she likes.

If you don't have a special woman in your life...
stop talking about facial hair and go find her.

Also if a man has a beard I believe they should actively take care of it. Like just wash it dude. Don’t let there be crumbs in there it’s gross.

Facial hair? I think it would not work on my face but for anyone else I'd say case by case basis. :)

Anyone think they can make an honest estimate from my current profile photo?

How old do I appear to be in the photo?

My face hasn't been clean shaven since I left a job that required me to not have a beard about 3 years ago. Never again! 😂😂😂

I was gonna ask: On who? Men or women? As the Title didn't specify... :)

On men....… if it is kept neat, it's fine. Sadly, I don't always keep mine neatly cut/trimmed, and I end up looking like a guy whose pic can be found at the local Post Office.

On women..... sadly, some women have a condition that causes them to grow facial hair/even excessive..... but, being selfish, I'm not a fan of facial hair on women. Men can pull off the beard thing much better....kinda hides what we actually look like ya know....

A few months ago there was a thread about glasses. Hot or not.

What about facial hair?

When I see a man with a full beard I generally think older, wiser.

A couple of years ago I grew a full beard. My teenage daughter told me I look so young. It struck me as odd.

What are your thoughts?
If well kept and neat, good
