Ugh! That's hideous! Although the distortion and tight crop are probably what makes it unflattering. And more northerner looking.

Definitely prefer the other photo.

I like hair on the head which is not the wrong shape.

You mean you prefer the one in the gallery?

 

I like that one, it's possibly the only time I've been photogenic.

 

I believe I feigned the retarded look on that photo, or then again it could just have been a bad caffeine free morning.

 

I think I've got a picture of the final trimmed uber-tache as well, I'll see if I can dig it out when I get home.

I like suits made from skunk fur!

8-O

:-D

That's a most flattering picture of me, though this photo I'm thinking of with the moustache does make me look rather twatish suave.

Moustaches do seem to have that effect.

It takes a lot to carry off a convincing moustache. For starters, you need to be at least 50. Looking like Sam Elliot also helps. Beards offer more flexibilty (and shelter).

Feck, haven't got the picture at home, must be on my work PC somewhere. Pretty sure it must be there, 'cos there's a les res version of it I set as my profile pic on the ol' intranet. I'll have to get it tomorrow.

 

Now, if only I could remember where it is that I work... :-|

Found it.

Looks like you just enjoyed a smoke!

Nice :D

Either that or a rather satisfying bodily effusion.

Awesome is the word you're looking for. (nod)

 

Weirdly, after this whole thread started I've felt the need to shave more frequently than ever before, I've had two shaves in two days. :|

Am I the only one who utterly despises shaving?

I can't stand it most of the time, up until the day before yesterday I'd shave maybe 0.75 times a week.

 

At the risk of sounding girly I've got fairly sensitive skin and shaving really does a number on it, so I let the hair grow, which is fine as I don't really care about how my face looks.

 

However, the wife likes me shaven and I do like the fresh feeling you get /after/ you've had a shave, but I hate the itchiness you get when the beard comes in after a week or two being allowed to grow. :C

 

So, I shave every so often out of necessity. Except the last two days.

 

I have tried something different though - going at my face with the electric razor to keep the stubble down, but as that never gets into all the nooks and crannies (usually just behind and under the jaw bone) I have to finish it off using a Mach 3. I've also found that just using water as a lubricant works as well as shaving foam. :-/

Nope, I hate it.

I have really, really sensitive skin so shaving (wet or electric) absolutely obliterates it and often leaves me with a rash (especially on the bottom of my jaw / top of my neck (even though I don't shave my neck!) that can get really irritating, and this is regardless of the soap-free / sensitive (and expensive!) stuff I smear all over my face before and / or after the event.

Glad it's just not me. Wish I could afford electrolysis on my face!

I don't despise shaving, but I despise the effect it has on my skin. If I electric shave it leaves me with a rash and doesn't remove all of the growth as it's very fine. If I wet shave every day, my skin gets very bumpy, sore and bleeds everywhere. At the moment I (wet) shave once a week but I can handle twice if I have an interview or somewhere else I need to look nice. I much prefer me all clean shaven, it feels like "me" but it just doesn't happen that often.

I used to hate shaving. Now I use a shaving brush, traditional DE razor and a nice shave cream. Feel like a GENTLEMAN :-{

also it's a super close shave and skin feels nice afterward and the blades cost about twopence each.

http://www.edwinjagger.com/ make my stuff apart from the blades which I think I'm mostly using Gillette Bleue at present. http://www.royalshave.com/p/409-024-01/gillette-bleue-double-edge-razor-blades.html you can get hundreds a go for not much on ebay.
