Grooming and Hygiene

@EdH ive been surreptitiously growing the moustache out the past few weeks whilst trimming the rest of my facial hair down to 5mm. I could see my wife looking at me trying to suss out what looks different, but I don’t think she’s quite cottoned on. It’s been quite good as I haven’t had to fully commit to the ‘tash while I grow it. Next, I’ll go slightly shorter for the rest of the stubble and decide whether to keep it. Here’s my attempt so far, don’t have nightmares…

@jerkules It's got a great shape to it. I think you'll like it. As for the Mrs, don't give her a choice. It's your face.
I like to rock mine with 2-4 day stubble, then trim the beard down twice a week as short as my trimmers will go. -
@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
