For a couple of months now I have been "off colour". At these times I tend to get very lazy (lazier??) and have let the beard grow unchecked

Trouble is -- I looked in the mirror today and Uncle Albert was looking back at me!!!!!

I want to trim it back to my normal goatee type ( but fuller ), SWMBO wants me to keep the full beard!

If you start doing this she will relent and let you trim it back to the normal goatie

You will have to consider the consequences of if she likes it though

That's simple -- I will just have an "accident" whilst trimming the nasal hairs turkish style ... WOOOOSH

I've worn a full beard for years now and when I shaved it off for my 40th birthday party (me and a mate went as the Blues Brothers!) everybody commented on how much younger I looked etc etc.

SWMBO just burst into tears :-? What was that all about?

Funny thing hair growth,as a teenager you go around with an unconvincing beard (bumfluff) then as you get older you find unwanted hair sprouting from everywhere.......even my teeth are starting to sport a little designer stubble these days.

[HolyCount]

Arrrrgh!  I have been interfered with -- gone all fungoidal  

[DaveyDavey]

That doesn't sound particularly pleasant!

I shaved off my goatee a couple of weeks ago, had it for the last 10 years. My other half took a few days to get used to it and now she doesn't mention it.

It's your face Count, so ultimately you should decide whether it has a full beard or not. Besides which if Mrs Count insists on you growing it back again then it shouldn't take too long

So that really is you in the picture then

I would recommend a compromise - shave just your cheeks, maintaining a well defined line downwards and across.

Whatever else you do, [size=12]KEEP THE MOUSTACHE.[/size]

A beard without appropriate upper lip coverage is an [size=12]ABOMINATION.[/size]

I speak from experience - I've had my beard since I left school 44 years ago.  Until a few weeks ago, I had quite an impressive handlebar moustache, but I decided that it had to go as I'm currently looking for a job.  I was afraid it might not be taken seriously.  I will obviously need to train my next employer in beard appreciation.

im not a great lover of facial hair but i sometimes dont shave for 2 weeks as i cant be bothered to. then when i start looking like robert redford i have a shave

Sorry - I cannot abide stubble trying to pass itself off as a beard!

Almost as bad as the current fad for shaven heads.  

If the top of my head was open to the elements, I would have the decency to buy myself a wig!
