s/o beards thread

[Melissa in Australia]

After reading the beard thread. I was wondering how many have DH's with beards.

so here is a poll

For this poll, all facial hair below the lip is a beard, be it a goatee or a full bushy beard with plats and bows.

Clean shaven. He has to go into the labs and would have to cover it-easier to have none.

 

But I love them. :D

[jar7709]

DH would, but his is sparse, and kinda scraggly when it gets to 'beard' status, so he usually just maintains the stubble for a rugged look. Or so he says sometimes. He's really just too lazy to shave everyday. ;)

[Country Mouse]

Beards are a safety hazard for dh's occupation and are forbidden.

[hsbaby]

Voted beard, but really a goatee. I prefer him NIT clean shaven. I love when we go on vacation and he's stubbly;)

“He that hath a beard is more than a youth, and he that hath no beard is less than a man. He that is more than a youth is not for me, and he that is less than a man, I am not for him.”

 

 

 

Dh has a goatee :001_wub: the perfect balance.

[Parrothead]

Dh has a hairy lip. He is in the process of growing in a mustache. It looks so funny.:D

[Melissa in Australia]

My DH had a beut moustache. He has "Never shaved his upper lip" ( quoting my brother, who thought it looked so distinguished that he copied him :D)

[acablue]

Movember is in full force here, but typically, clean-shaven.

[edelweiss]

Ick! No.

[Ellie]

I really wanted to vote for the pigs with wings, but alas, I had to go with mustache only.

 

However, Mr. Ellie has had a beard a couple of times. He's scrumptuos with or without a beard. :)

 

As long as it isn't *stubble,* I'm good with whatever he chooses to do with his face.

[Impish]

Goatee here.

 

And I let my displeasure be known when he decides, w/out warning, to shave it :tongue_smilie::lol:

[laughing lioness]

Dh grows a full beard and mustache each winter. Clean shaven spring/summer/fallish.

[nono]

My husband? I voted beard/mustache, but it's not really. He shaves about once a week, and has a really thick, black, natural goatee/mustache combo that works well for him and grows in quickly.

 

I find it a bit weird when he's freshly shaven. His beard really works for him and makes him quite manly.

I tell Wolf that the goatee makes him look like the 'bad boy' :D:lol:

[Mommyfaithe]

Mine has always had a beard and mustache....since we met and he was 18 :D

My sons both have beards and mustaches like their dad....once they were 18. It is not a religious thing....just, well....they have gorgeous facial hair, so no reason to shave it off. They keep very well groomed....and all 3 have deep auburn mustaches and beards with deep blue eyes. .....

[fraidycat]

DH is military. He has to be clean shaven, along with half of his head :glare:. He did grow out a goatee while on extended leave once. He looked Extra HOT! :D

[nmoira]

Beard and moustache, and has had since we became engaged. It's the only non-negotiable item on my end of the "pre-nup." His is that I don't shave my head.

 

My youngest will only consider marrying a man with a beard, as she thinks men without are not trustworthy.

[PeacefulChaos]

Uh... I wasn't sure what to vote...I guess he has a beard and moustache.

However...

not exactly. He's got scruff. Idk...there's a picture of him on my blog (below) if that helps... :lol:

[justLisa]

Yes both. He keeps it trimmed nicely. I love it and would be sad if he shaved. He had no thing when we met, but I think it is totally s*xy.

[LostSurprise]

I couldn't answer. DH has a full beard (ie beard with a mustache) a majority of the year but shaved it off last week for one of his beard-free periods. He goes through cycles. He tells me its a kissing holiday when he does. :D

 

He actually looks just like this when he has a beard. He looks nothing like Ewan McGregor when he doesn't have a beard.

[sassenach]

Both and I LOVE it.

[nukeswife]

Another clean shaven military man here. He's never grown anything out, but will go a bit stubbly on the weekends at times or when on leave. I don't mind the stubble.

 

I have seen pics of him when he was in college and had a full bushy beard. He looked like Grizzly Adams, so no thanks. Now if he wanted to go with a well trimmed goatee or something once he retires, I'd be ok with it, but not the bushy mountain man look.

[kalanamak]

Mustache and goatee. I've even posted a picture of it, and it was the subject of a bridezilla thread. His hair is almost white now, but his facial stuff is still salt and pepper.

[Hypatia.]

DH has a goatee. He just retired from the military in July and has enjoyed not having to shave every day. (I have to say, I do miss him clean-shaven.)

[MrsBasil]

Beard and mustache right now. He changes it up from time to time. Now that he works outside, he's happier keeping the facial hair.

[Mama_Rana]

Clean shave now, but he has had both a full beard and a goatee before. Never just a mustache since we've been together.

[The Girls' Mom]

Full beard :001_wub: He has shaved exactly once since the day we got married, and that was in the first year. I don't even know what he looks like under there anymore :lol: I joke with him that he needs to shave it off just once, to freak out the kids...but they are horrified at the thought. (so am I a little!)

 

I love furry men though. Makes 'em look manly :D

[Pamela H in Texas]

Always a mustache, usually a goatee also.

[Hunter's Moon]

He is clean shaven now for wrestling season (:glare:), but usually he has a sparse beard/side burn combo going on :D

 

I also voted for the pigs :)

[LMD]

Clean shaven, including top of head, though often a stubbly 5 o'clock shadow, I do like the rugged look. Since we've been together he's tried many goatee's, including chin strap/side burns. I don't think he could stand a full beard!

[Julie Smith]

Dh hates facial hair on himself, and hates shaving.

 

Happily his facial hair grows in slowly. He shaves about every 3 to 4 days so it ranges from clean shaven to big after 5 shadow.

[Tutor]

Mine has both, but he keeps them clipped to 10:00 shadow scruffiness... otherwise it tickles. :lol:

[Forget-Me-Not]

Full beard/mustache but he keeps it trimmed pretty short. He has a very heavy beard and has a "five o'clock shadow" by two or three in the afternoon if he goes clean-shaven, which he hasn't for 4 yrs.

[sparrow]

I voted beard and mustache, but it's really a goatee that occasionally ends up being a beard. He also sports a handlebar mustache sometimes. I love that :001_smile:.

 

The kids have never seen him without facial hair. It would totally freak them out!

[dangermom]

My husband grows out a beard every winter. I love it! And I like variety. :001_smile:

[Rosie_0801]

Where's the poll option for "Don't know, I haven't met him yet?" Can't we be inclusive around here? :toetap05: :p

 

I voted with the pigs, with apologies to my future husband should he be a Jew, Muslim or vegetarian. :D

 

Oh man, now you've got The Beards song stuck in my head...

[A.Balaban]

DH has a goatee. He's had one since we started dating. I haven't seen him with no facial hair in like six or seven years!! I would totally freak out, so he's not allowed to shave it off. ;)

Sorry Rosie. I am completely thoughtless. Of course I should have included that option. :D

[joannqn]

Dh changes his facial hair regularly. He has a goatee most often. He currently has a sole patch. The only thing he's hasn't had during our marriage is a mustache only because I hate them.

[Whereneverever]

My DH has a goatee or beard depending on how good he is with shaving and always has an impressive mustache.

 

I love it. :D

[Desert Rat]

Well, dh is clean shaven now, but often wears a variety of facial hair in winter, which starts later here in the desert southwest.

My favorite? Toss up between a soul patch and the handlebar moustache.

[AndyJoy]

My DH started growing a beard shortly after we were married because it made him look older and made people take him more seriously. He was just shy of 20 but had a lot of life experience and knowledge. Growing the beard definitely helped with his image.

 

He did shave it to get in character for Buzz Lightyear for Halloween, but normally I really prefer him with a beard/mustache. He is still pretty baby-faced though the hair on his head is quite thin. He looks much more manly with the beard.

[ccolopy]

Usually clean-shaven, with the occasional light beard. He went completely gray early, so a beard makes him look at least 10 years older.

[Audrey]

Yes both. He keeps it trimmed nicely. I love it and would be sad if he shaved. He had nothing when we met, but I think it is totally s*xy.

 

Yup. That's exactly what I was going to say.

[LucyStoner]

I would be sad if my husband were clean shaved. I think his facial hair is one of the sexiest things about him and I have never found a clean shaven man especially attractive. IMHO men need some facial hair.

[Heather in Neverland]

He has a mustache and goatee but they are kept thin.

[Rosie_0801]

[Heidi @ Mt Hope]

Not only has my dh never worn facial hair, he shaves his head also. :) I think some men look good in a goatee, but my preference is clean-shaven.

[carina]

I said yes he has a beard, but I should have voted that he has a beard and mustache. He shaves every 2-3 weeks or when ever the urge hits him.
