should i shave this off or should i leave it?
in about 12 days, i will be getting a picture taken against my will for a school thing that will be immortalized forever. of course i'm not attractive, i know this very well, but does that mean i shouldn't try? maybe but i try anyways.
from the front
You look fine and the beard fits you so keep it and stop getting stressed over a picture.
School thing...
Jesus Christ op, I dunno, keep the damn thing. Be a man. Depends what you like.
You look a tad heavy, but that beard is on point. Lose 20 pounds of fat, add 10 of muscle, and keep that facebear trimmed up neat.
You're lucky. Losing weight is and toning up is something that 99.999% of human bodies are capable of, but if you're unlucky enough to be born into the 50% that can't grow decent facial hair...forget it. That's not something that can be fixed by self improvement.
Remember dude, high school only counts for 5% of your lifespan. And the worse you look in the yearbook (or whatever picture event this is), the BETTER you'll look by comparison at the 10-year-reunion.
Myself, I graduated at 5'10, 125 pounds of lean muscle. Now I'm 10 years older, weighing in at 206 lbs, and still living with my parents as a depressed, alcoholic chubster welding full time at my step dad's shop. And my reunion is this June.
There are some who would kill to be in your position, to start start over again.
OBEY THE BEARD
Leave it, just make sure your cheek and neck lines are clean (looks like they already are). Facial hair is a go to for more rotund gentlemen to give your face more shape and you're fortunate to have a pretty full face bush so i say keep it. Just maybe smile some abd dont make that pedo mugshot scowl!
Damn OP stop being a whiny faggot. That beard is nice, just keep him groomed nice.
okay i'll keep it. i can't tell if it looks pathetically thin or not
yeah i couldn't grow anything in high school, i'm about the same age as you haha. i'm graduating a doctorate program and they put everyone's picture on a poster and hang it on this thing in the hall and people will look through the posters for the indefinite future. there are pictures from the 1930's on those posters and people make fun of people look to this day, i don't want to be an eternal laughingstock.
and yeah i need to lose weight but that's not realistic in the next 12 days haha.
Damn was I the only one thinking you were talking about being the next school shooter?
okay i'll keep it, thank you.
lol yeah i'll smile for the pic, i didn't think it was that relevant today but for that pic yeah I'll try to smile and avoid serial killer eyes and what not. yeah i'm pretty rotund as you put it so if the beard is passable i'm going to go for it. i have been trying to get the strays shaved off
probably not, one day when i was a senior in high school forever ago the gym teacher gave me a high five in the hall and said "if you shoot up the school, i'm good right?"
i don't get it, i've never wanted to hurt anyone and i don't know why people think i look like a school shooter.
Why not try losing weight.......
in the next 12 days?
i could dehydrate myself i guess. one time on a long hike i ran out of water and i was too dehydrated to have an appetite, in a little over one day i lost over 20 lbs. obviously it gradually came back as i rehydrated.
Instead of asking yourself whether to shave or keep that poor excuse of a beard, you should have gotten into not stuffing your face as often a long time ago.
In a couple of years, people won't look at those Photos and be like "Oh look at the guy with the beard...", oh no, they will be like:
"Oh look, do you remember that fat fuck?"
"Ah, dunno, ah yeah, I think I do, last I heard he died of a heart attack a year ago..."
So yeah, your face won't matter. Get motivated and lose weight. Now. Before it is too late.
>poor excuse of a beard
so it's bad enough to be an eternal laughingstock then
JFC, what an attention-whore this faggot is. Just get the sex-change op already.
Get the cunt styled mate.
Don't shave it off cause double chin
Go barbers get it tidied up
Here's a beard mate.
Sort it oot
This
that looks patchier on the cheeks than mine, it's just grown out for like a year. also that has clearly not been trimmed, the right side of the beard on the chin is longer than the left
Man I wish I could grow a beard. 20 y/o amd can only hardly grow a tiny soul patch and very spare hairs above upper lip. Anyone know if minoxidl works?
minoxidil works, can confirm
Yeah nah she's pretty filth at the moment,
I got drunk last night
Thought it needed a trim and took a lighter to it
So there we see the results
How long does it take and how much do you apply per day? Can you get it over the counter?
It's cute and you'll look like a gay cabbage patch kid without it
You’re ugky so I can’t help. I guess keep it to hide the ugly
lol. maybe take a lighter to the right side too, even it out a little?
If anything you should grow it out more, looks kind of awkward not but would look worse clean shaven
>how long does it take
depends on the person. 6 months is a fair trial period to see if you'll respond to it, i'd say most people see hairs coming in within a month or two, but you need to take it for a long time for the hairs to turn terminal. so i'd say it takes a year or two for good permanent results
>how much do you apply per day
what it says on the bottle, it depends if it's liquid or foam. i recommend foam, and foam says half a capful twice a day. liquid is like 1 ml twice a day or whatever the bottle says. just put it on the areas where you want hair to grow, pretty dang simple
>can you get it over the counter?
in america, yes.
>you'll look like a gay cabbage patch kid without it
lol
yeah i know i'm ugly.
>keep it to hide the ugly
yeah, that's why i wear sunglasses outside almost all the time too, anything to cover my ugliness. the more coverage the better.
why does it look awkward?
and it'll have 12 days to grow some more, hopefully that helps :/
Definitely going to try and get my hands on a bottle.
Nah that's drunken shenanigans
Tomorrow I gotta go to the barber again and tell him what happened
Every time I cop a lecture about it
He says
>mate you can't cut hair with fire
>it smells bad and I hate cutting it
>one day you will burn your face
Never have I hurt myself just made my beard fucked up
One time I burnt the whole left side off
Beards are manly, if well kempt.
i think growing it out and keep it off your neck will be about as good as you can get. also get a haircut 2-3 days before probably. your only issue is that you’re fat (we’re probably about the same - 6’4 280 here) and having a beard helps give your pudgy lower face shape. I can’t commit to growing out my facial hair cuz of the awkward 2 day - 2 month stage even though my dad and brother have full beards.
Just trim your face so you look hireable, and not like a dumbass.
i wish there were barbers close to here. too small of a community
i can't tell if mine is too patchy to be manly
i was going to get a haircut very soon, it looks better after about 3 weeks after a haircut for me usually.
are you saying to cut it shorter, shave it into a different style, or shave it all off altogether?
Do not shave it. If anything keep it just for the picture. Then shave it after.
Thanks for the potential art ref the pic is great. also KEEP THE BEARD JUST DON'T GROW IT OUT TOO LONG!!!
Yeah I live in a smallish place
Full of black cunts drinking on the streets
But there's a few wogs who do good haircuts
SHAVE THAT THE FUCK OFF it shows you are a follower of fads a beard is the new mullet, everyone with a beard looks like a fucking follower of fashion and a weebo
no they are not, that is what the "fad" of having a beard tells you to think, you look like a fag, as soon as you leave a room everyone you know makes fun of you for being a follower, you have a face mullet.
>potential art ref
huh?
yeah if i want a haircut i have to drive a half hour to fucking great clips or something, very rural.
art reference for drawing...
If you are trying to fit into a roughneck's social just shave your fucking head and keep your pansy manlet peachfuzz to show off to the big boys, dumbass, or keep keep it the same and go to mama's boy trolley training like you do, its just a photo.
