I had long hair for many years. The only thing I ever was mistaken for was a woman ?
“Dude looks like a lady”, ever research why that song was written? Lead singer of Motley Crew was sitting in a bar when the band members of Aerosmith came in the same bar. They noticed a young blonde from the back and were they surprised when they tapped her on the shoulder.

Not sure what was unclear. Just saying old skool Elliott had that perfect groomed man growth. I know he went grey. Just referencing that. I occasionally break out the mild brown and look a bit more GQ than when I am lazy.
Usually I hold the tight scrub but growing out for xmas at the cabin. Seems appropriate.

Resemblances can be annoying. My favorite "you look like" moments are Sam Waterson. My least favorites include Woody Allen -- I'm about two heads taller though I wear glasses -- and Prince Charles, who may be a fine man but has always annoyed me as coming across pompous, as royals can tend to be. And so far, I have more hair.

I had a White Sox Starter Brand jacket back in the early 90’s...they were a popular clothing item at the time with the youth. Visiting my sister in Arizona over the winter I had it on.Kid came up to me at a restaurant asking for an autograph being as I apparently pitched for the Sox at the time. Spring Training time frame. I said no, sorry not me. He was about 11 years old. He came up a second time so I admitted and apologized and signed a nice autograph for him, shook his hand, his family was pretty happy about the whole event. Needless to say I am athletic as patio furniture.

lol I can really see the Woody Allen sorry man rotf

I've been told I look like: James Hetfield the lead singer from Metallica, Stephen Baldwin especially "Bio-Dome" era, Alan Ruck (Cameron from Ferris Bueller).... and so on.
mainly if I don't have a beard or a very short beard.

I wouldn't mind Woody's money or his comedic and film talent, or a few choice suits from Prince Charles' wardrobe. I liked Sam Waterson better when he was playing fiery idealists.
