Can you even grow a mustache? Are you okay with us not kissing for an entire month? I had already elected to do it, and I was determined to make the best of it, I told her. I have a buddy, Pete, who has grown a full, bushy mustache every Movember for more years than his wife, Kate, would care to count.
I have another friend, Steve, who can grow a mustache within an hour after having shaved and without watching even two minutes of Gran Torino. In the absence of a supportive wife, Pete and Steve would act as my mustache-growing inspiration and motivation. I texted Pete on September 30 for his advice. It wasn't until the fourth day of the experiment that I grew anything that anyone noticed.
And that anyone was my wife. Only I know what I did. I decided to grow a stupid mustache. As the hair on my upper lip grew, so did the distance between my wife and me. I turned to the men in my life for moral assistance.
I asked my toddler son what he thought about my new facial hair. And then, around October 16, the mustache began to offend even me. If so, then it might be worth rethinking your decision. Or, to put it a little more precisely, should you go the route of growing a mustache on its own, will you be able to survive the awkward phases, emotionally? Because, we promise you, there will be more than a few comments at the expense of your slowly growing lip tickler.
The trouble is, your work has only just begun. Sounds like you are enjoying the process and I am happy to hear you discovered you are more patient than you thought you were.
Beards are cool like that! I keep mine about the same length as well. Very happy to hear your partner enjoys the beard, that makes all the difference.
Thanks again for stopping by and sharing your beard journey with us. Stay bearded! Started my beard journey in May New job working outdoors and new partner who preferred bearded men. I now have amazing Hipster look. Best decision i ever made. Always clean shaven till I started losing my hair. I would shave my head and face once a week. I trim, shape and style my beard myself.
I keep it 10 to 12 inches in length and well maintained. My partner loves it so it will be around for years to come. Thanks for checking out the blog and for your question concerning the length of your goatee compared to the hair on the sides of your face.
My advice is to stay patient and let things grow. It is quite common for the hair on your chin to be longer than the hair on the sides of your face. Time and patience are about the only ways to really find out if the sides will grow in a bit to be a similar length to your goatee.
If not, you can always trim or shape the goatee to be more even with the sides. Your beard growth is determined primarily from your genetics.
Let me know if I can help with anything else. So I started shaving at 17, and usually I have to shave because of my job. But the thing is when I grow my beard out when I want my go tee is longer than the hair on the sides of my face.
Never can understand why. Any advice? Thanks for checking out the blog and for your question! I understand you are 17 and growing your beard. In general, yes, I recommend staying really, really patient and not trimming. This gives your beard the chance to grow and it allows you to see how your beard will grow. Some folks think that shaving will stimulate faster growth but we have not seen any scientific data to support that opinion.
If you plan to grow and maintain a beard as an adult, this is a great time to put that patience into practice. First of all, I can tell you are a fighter so keep at it and stay strong. Sorry to hear about the chemo! I understand you are wanting to have a full beard. From what we have seen, there are not any legitimate products that actually make hair grow in the patchy spots. Your beard growth, both the pattern and fullness, come primarily from your genetics.
The best way to find out what can grow is to just stay really patient and let it grow without trimming. The other approach is to make the most of what you can grow. I bet the Vikings had several styles of facial hair :. Thanks for checking out the blog and for your comment. Every beard goes through awkward phases and it is key to stay patient and endure those phases.
Keeping your skin and beard clean and conditioned will go a long way as well. Happy growing and please feel free to share update photos of your journey with us across social media or email me at tim canyouhandlebar. I have always wanted a full long beard ever since my younger days. My problem is I could only grow a goatee, nothing on the sides would grow.
Well in I had to have chemo treatments and after several years of it and losing all my hair when I finished the treatment I decided to let my hair grow and grow. I noticed that my facial hair started to come in, not full but patchy. So I am letting it grow now for several years and it not filling in much. I have a long chin beard bushy neck and some cheeks but no sideburns to speak of. My question to you is, are there any products that really work to help grow or thicken my beard on the sides of my face?
I really want a real full before I die. Something like a Viking style. Thanks so much for this article. I have been trying to grown I longer beard then I ever have. It gets to the point where it just looks ridiculous. Going to get some Beard oil and Dry Beard oil per your suggestion. My beard has always grown pretty fast. Thanks Mom for the male patterned baldness and extra testosterone, lol. I may not be able to grow or keep it on my head since puberty.
I sure can grow in other places, lol. Take care to all who read this post. Thanks so much for checking out the blog and for leaving the comment. Happy regrowing! If I can help with anything at all, just holler. Stay bearded. Just like you have a hair-care regimen separate from your styling regimen, you need to separate these two steps when it comes to mustache maintenance.
However, after you shower, your mustache needs some special attention. Beard oil: Mustache hairs are thick and bristly, and when they get too dry, they start to irritate your skin—and anyone you plan on locking lips with.
Do everyone a favor and keep your whiskers soft and supple, with a few drops of beard oil each morning. Rub it between your finger and thumb, then massage it into the base of the mustache as you coach it into place. Just For Men is a reliable brand for this—with plenty of shades to match your own hair, and a recently reformulated recipe that is gentler on hairs.
It dyes the hair more gradually, so nobody realizes that you changed it overnight. So read up on the best shaving methods to keep the focus on your prized facial hair—and not on your subpar shaving technique.
