Challenge: Grow a moustache until shit goes back to normal.

Mog The Almighty · Post by **Mog The Almighty** » Sun Apr 05, 2020 1:33 pm

Excuse me. I have cabin fever. I'm going to grow this bad boy until shit goes back to normal. I have a feeling it's going to end up epic.

This is how boring my life has become.

Anyone else in for the challenge?

Mate, I'm growing a tash, full beard and Afro until this all blows away.

C'mon. Forget the beard. Join the challenge 70s style.

Well I've just trimmed my beard for the first time since last November so don't quite look like my avatar anymore"
I'm a couple of weeks overdue for my quarterly haircut though, and will probably end up looking like a slightly younger version of Willie Nelson!!!

Shave the beard grow the tach. Channel Sam Elliot. Beards are for hipsters.

Karl?

... was watching a flick from WW2 last night and thought I might grow out my hair and see if I can order some Brylcreem online.

Mog, you don't look like you have the hair to pull off his look from Roadhouse, but let Sam Elliott be your inspiration:

Beard is still going strong. Hair is longer than it's ever been on my head too (that's been true for the last year or so I guess, and it keeps getting longer).

Think my wife told me she's cutting off the sides today, so it'll be long on top. Top knot thing I guess is what she's going for.

I'll be shaving it into the Flashman when I cut my badboy.

Mate, I've had a beard for 45 years, so not going bto start shaving now!! Hipsters were trousers back in the day and nothing to do with beards

I'm done with beards. Save that shit for the Greeks and Turkish women. I'm going clean shaven Roman/Venitian style.

The beard was also an enabled me to get fat and still look good(ish). Shaving it off has actually meant I need to try and lose weight.

Inspiring stuff indeed.

No, I dont have the hair unfortunately. You really need a Sam Elliot or Tom Selleck mop to really pull off a moustache but I'll go for it anyway. I'll be more like a walrus or one of those 1920s leopard skin wearing circus strongmen.

Someone from my old rugby club has a real one that's about that thick, and with no hair on top. It's quite the sight!

I'm going the full beard

6.Jones · Post by **6.Jones** » Sun Apr 05, 2020 3:22 pm

I've been growing a full beard since Christmas. It's fifty shades of red and gray. My hair is not red. I look like I have a baboon's arse on my face. And it grows fast. My mustache is already down to my chin, when I don't curl it up and look like an Edwardian fool.

Mog The Almighty · Post by **Mog The Almighty** » Sun Apr 05, 2020 3:37 pm

Grow a mo like a cowboy or a 70s porn star. Hipsters made beards uncool, catch on.

The colour palette you're looking for is called "Hint of Ginger" - it's also the first bit of the beard to go white

True, I was just blending my idea to grow my hair out and his to grow a 'tache, finishing with the ideal Elliott mo ...

... which was not very good in Roadhouse.

Nieghorn · Post by **Nieghorn** » Sun Apr 05, 2020 3:57 pm

Mog, if I can manage Errol Flynn's hairdo, I might ... MIGHT ... shave off my beard and go for his mustache.

If that's what it's called, then I guess so. Can't say I really give a damn.

I'm going a full beard much to my wife's horror. My beard is pure silver and I look like hungover Papa Smurf.

I used to work with a bloke in the uneviable position of his missus only really finding him attractive with a beard, but despising the way it felt on any part of her when they got down to business. I changed job before finding out whether that was as terminal for the relationship as it seemed to be.

A decent salary hitting the joint bank account is a hell of a (marital) lube.
