Grooming and Hygiene
-
@jerkules It will continue to thicken out as the smaller, slow growing hairs fill in the bulk. But experience has taught me not to set my hopes for any particular 'look'. We all get what we're given, and once you've got enough to work with you can start trimming around the edges and define its shape to your liking. Age also helps - my attempts at a mo in my 20's were butt fluff stuff.

@Tago-Mago well, this is going to start a whole other conversation but here you go:
I couldn't find anything showing the 20's Mo off clearly - blame it on the fact we were young and poor and could only afford potato cameras back in the mid-00s. I don't even think the iPhone 1 was out when this was taken.

@jerkules They were fun. Sadly I combed them out (which took ages) before my 3rd year of uni on the misguided assumption that I might apply for a job or two and need to be presentable at an interview.

Slowly? What, one at a time or something? XD

I feel like in my personal experience at least, once you go stache, you'll never wanna go beard again. I look at old pics of myself with a fully hirsute face (or at least the best scraggle that my Irishness can produce) and think "fucking hell, who invited the guy from the Spin Doctors?" Ok maybe that's being overly self-critical, but it's bad. I feel much happier in my John Prine configuration, might even stick with it eternally.

First things first, I should listen to some John Prine later. Thank you.
Second, I realized recently I like both the hairy face and the naked face and will, moving forward, alternate more regularly. I think when I have a beard I miss smelly aftershave so when I run out of an aftershave I like I’ll grow the beard for a bit until I miss the smelly stuff again. I came across some beard pics of me at work recently and it looked awesome.
