I've sported these sideburns for a while. I had shaved them off about a year ago, and it was at the insistence of several lady friends that I bring them back. For your consideration..  |

I decided to shave my face. My brick-red beard might be appropriate when charging into battle with axe and shield, wearing a Norse helmet and chainmail, but it's out of place with a gentleman. I can't even grow decent sideburns!

That´s the problem with steampunk, there´s not really any chances for combat.

Tenuous connection but the phrase "Alexander's Beard" (meaning no Beard at all) comes from Alexander the Great who made his Soldiers go into battle clean shaven. This was to ensure that their enemies could not pull on their beards in combat. Though I wore a straggly beard most of the time from my mid Twenties until my mid Thirties (& a moustache for a few years prior to that) I have favoured clean shaven for some years now. When Steampunk combat comes I am ready. Zombies,Women,Ice Cream cones. I can lick them all. |

Sadly speaking of Alexander's beard despite being a 22 year old male I am for all intents and purposes unable to grow facial hair, the results of a full week of not shaving is a slightly fuzzy upper lip and maybe 6 or 7 hairs jutting from my chin not unlike a pubescent boy and the occasional older woman. My friends are oft to joke that due to me being adopted and not really knowing my biological heritage I must be half elf or something, ironically to somewhat compensate for this lacking I have grown two long strips of hair on either side of my head which I have dubbed "Link locks" for the obvious video game reference, they still start well above my ears but at least give a slight illusion of long sideburns so I guess it could be considered facial hair by a very loose definition. But hopefully by the time I start losing the hair atop my head I'll finally be able to get a decent handlebar going.

You are by no means alone in that regard, good sir. My sideburns are but timid islands of fluff perched upon my cheek... O to sport the robust, manly chops of our fellows! |

It's a bit of a pity my husband is not a great Steampunk type person as he is currently sporting quite the beard these last few years. (He rather more looks like a biker most days, it's of such a length.) Last week I dove in and tried a recipe for some mustache wax to help him tame his mustache more so it can finally grow out enough to be braided in with the rest of his beard. I surprised him with the fruits of my labor, and after some trial and error, it's working quite nicely, I'm pleased to announce. The Handlebar Club has some mad facial hair going on there, I must proclaim. It's quite entertaining to peruse their gallery. Or, as in my husband's case, inspiring. I found a mix of Beeswax and Jojoba Oil to work well for me. I change the proportions, depending on the season. My lady friends calls it "Weasel wax". |

That is too hilarious! I must make one for my Canadian friend. I thought I'd share a photo of my beau and I at Halloween where you can see the splendid moustache he was sporting at the time. We both grew a bit tired of it eventually and now it's gone.  It was fun while it lasted. Embarrassingly enough you can also see the safety pin I used to hold his cravat together. Ahem..  |

It pleases me no end to finally find a place where my so called "Victorian face do" (i assure you those are not my words but the words of the dullards I seem to find myself surrounded by) Long live the mutton chops and -true- handlebar mustache.

 Guess you can't see it too well, but it's somewhat of a chin beard which runs from "ear to ear". And, while we're on the subject, yes, I'm only 19 |

My mustache is no more. After having grown tired of always eating it/ having it in my mouth/ feeling it more than my girlfriends lips when kissing, I decided that it was time for the thing to be gone. It lasted for a good three months or so and and was grand in its prime. I would post pictures here, but I have already posted them in the playing dress up thread, and I do not wish to cross post. So I direct your attention towards the aforementioned thread to see the photographic evidence of my mustache at its fullest.

I guess as my first post I will go ahead and throw my hat into the ring... I consider it a rather nice chin curtain if I do say so myself, but at the moment I am considering letting the sides grow up and out, and then trimming the goat off... And almost perfect friendly mutton chops. Unfortunately I cannot grow a mustache to save my life... But as usual when I allow my facial hair to grow out I will attempt it. Any ideas, or advice? |
