I change my facial hair up quite a bit, as of about three days ago I am clean shaven, but that is rare for me. I haven't had a full beard since my grad school days, but usually have a goatee or some similar small beard and mustache combo. For the past several months I was sporting the mustache and stinger look and even was waxing the tips for the past month. I'll probably grow something in again soon, maybe a handlebar or a big set of mutton chop sideburns like my dad had back in the 70's!
This is prior to the mustache and stinger look, but is relatively representative, particularly because it includes the mandatory icy cold adult beverage:

I shave the moustache if I have to wear a mask for snorkeling, otherwise no. It creeps my wife out when I don't have a moustache.

I could only dream to a have a mustache and or beard that would command as much respect as some of you fine gentleman. Especially Lawrence. I'm going to see what I can make during no-shave November.

In high school I grew a beard so I could buy beer for my friends...
I've had one for a few months a while back, just got to lazy to shave...

Now It's only a goatee...

Seasonal. I used to deliver heating oil here in the U.P. Of Michigan and it was a big help. My avatar is from an outdoor campout with the Boy Scouts and we hit -17 over night. My beard frosted up nicely in the morning.

Full magnificent red beard here, I shave it off everytime I get a job interview (like to keep it short anyways, size 2)

Full beard here, though I keep it no longer than a couple inches. Hard to remember when I didn't have it. Had only a goatee in grad school, so maybe 10-12 years now with the beard? Makes me look older (lots of grey) but oh well.

Thick black beard here. Ever since 16 I've gone between beard and goatee styles, but I've hardly been clean shaven. I'll have to take a picture with my new Sav when it arrives.

I had facial hair of some kind for close to 30 years. Had the goatee the longest and shaved that in 2008 when I started dating again. I recently grew it back because I took a break from the ladies, but I didn't care for it, makes me look ten years older.

Rocked the goatee for the past 10 years or so but the past couple months I've grown some sides. On the wife's recommendations no less. This the first I've seen myself from the side. I kinda like it.

Yes that's snow in the background. That crazy Sandy left us 3" this morning in Ohio.

Chin-only here. I had a full beard for a bit, but with the mohawk I looked to much like a white Mr. T....wife wasn't having it lol. I probably didn't help matters by going around saying "I pity the fool".

the Last Time I didn't have a Beard was the Day I was Married; 17 years ago. Been short all that time, but this Winter I'm letting it grow out a Bit. The Gray in it has peaked my interest... :-0
