For the entire month of December, to make it easier on myself, I grew a beard. It was unruly and crazy looking, and shockingly salt and pepper on my youthful face. I liked it, but I it aged me at least 10-15 years. My wife never commented on it, and when asked if she liked it, she would always reply "I like YOU."
The other night while she was out, I shaved it off. When she got home she stared at me sadly and said "Awww....I loved that beard. Why did you do that??"
Needless to say, I'm done trying to figure her out.

a few guys will look ok with a well-maintained goatee, but other than that I can't stand facial hair. and I really hate beard burn

For me it depends on the man. I'm not really into full beards, although some men look great in them like Rex Harrison, but I love a well groomed goatee and I think a mustache ie Clark Gable is hot (still trying to get my husband to grow one). As far as stubble, I'm the odd woman here and like kissing my husband when he hasn't shaved for a day or two, even more than when he's clean shaven. It feels manly to me :eek:

I strongly dislike moustaches. Not a fan of beards, but I can tolerate them more than a lone moustache. Fortunately, my husband is completely UNHAIRY and can't grow either :)

I don't like my chin. The circle beard makes me look older and tougher (so people say). I get nothing but compliments. I can't see ever being clean shaven again.

Nice to re-read this old thread. In the meantime I've had a very nice - and short - RAF moustache. But unfortunately my wife and I do not share the same enthusiasme on the subject.

So now it's just stubbles and cleanshaven, stubbles and cleanshaven.

You need a good old handlebar job like Stapme, Søren ;)
