It says yes I'm in charge. However it can also be a hinderance some comments I received. Did you lose a bet? I didn't know Ron Jeremy had a son. Have you been told that you cannot come near a school. So what is better?

I don't think my own grown children would recognize me without it and I don't want to test it. I keep it trimmed at all times, never more that a quarter inch long and have done that since the beginning. It is also shaped so I do have to trim around the edges daily. I vote for beards!!!

I have had goatee for many years (10?) and mustache ever since it grew there - have never ever shaved my mousetache. Of course which looks better on who really depends on the person and the quality of the facial hair and the grooming of same... As others have said - whatever it is, it must be looked after.

That said, if you are choosing between a full beard or just a mustache, I think the full beard looks better, with the goatee looking better than either one. I really don't like the just-a-mustache look.

I cant explain.. on him its his looks it works! no matter what.Neck hair is gross!!!! I like a groomed look no mater what! and did I say NO NECK HAIR.. I think the one thing I do think is a real turn off to me. is guys that walk around with a stubble face. there may be 20 guys it looks right for them.. but there are 30 billion it dont! I think you guys can safely beleve you are in that 30 billion.. WHY did I type on here.. take the soft inside of your arm and rub it on your stubble.. a few mins and see what a yucky ichy rach you get. NO lady wants RASH BURN on her.. if the next topic talks on guys eye brows.. we can go there.. I style hair.. and let me clue you in.. they may grow slowly. but your eyebrow hair DOES grow LONGER.. so without sounding mean.. all you have to do it get one of the thick combs ( the plastic it thick) and comb through your eyebrow.. trim off any long hairs that show on the outside of the comb.. ( Dont worry it wont cut it to short or thin.) it just cuts off any old guy hair after your young man days.. YOUR BARBER DOES THIS TRICK TOO> only with a shaver tool.. Iv never had one man complan in years of cutting hair. and just keep it all groomed EVERYWHERE showers and Antiperspirant. so forth it it keeps us coming back for more.. clean and groomed inside and out.

Mustache, well, I guess if you're a CHP maybe....
