Do you like the beard? :dontknow:

Mixed reaction from the wife. Don't know how to take it.

This is a luke warm effort at facial hair Jason. Either shave it, or grow it out full, adding a moustache. You may be on to something here...but we need to see it blossom.

Dang...that's 4 nays.

Are there no facial hair lovers out there? :dontknow:

Jason, to be honest, if your wife says, "Well...????" that's the worst condemnation possible. She's just too polite and loving to tell you that the new look uh, "inhales."

On the other hand, thank you for giving us a topic in which almost the entire community here agrees. Unity is a rare but beautiful thing.

Go to "My Controls". Under "Personal Profile" you'll see "Change Personal Photo". Upload a pic of yourself from your hard drive or some online link of yourself.

Jason, if you like the facial hair, go for it... unless your wife really hates it!

I updated my photo. I think it's cool to be able to put faces with the names all you guys (but I also respect anonymity if some would rather not).

She doesn't mind it when it's limited to my chin. It's the stretched out along my jaw bone that she doesn't like.

You're pic is cool. Who's the blonde? ;)

I say give it a while before shaving it off unless your wife absolutely can't stand it. You have to let things like that grow on you. Plus you need to let your beard grow past the 'itchy' stage before you decide whether you want to keep it on your face. Many guys can't stand the itch and shave it off without really giving it a chance.

I've had my mustache for almost 25 years continuously, with the exception of that one 'accident' where I slipped while shaving and had to cut it all off. My wife made me grow it right back, said I looked funny without it (of course, most people think I look funny with or without the mustache anyway :blink: ). My kids would just snicker when I was around them. But I'm kind of getting tired of it, and keep threatening to go bald-faced but my wife won't give me permission.

On the other hand, I hear that around here, people who get called to bishopric positions are requested to fully shave, so refusal to remove a mustache may be just enough to keep them looking elsewhere. Maybe I'll keep it for a while, until I get too old to be in the bishopric. Then it will be safe to shave again. :hmmm::hmmm::hmmm:

We have a couple of Bishops in our Stake that have facial hair.....they have never been asked to remove it.....thats interesting.....I do know Stake Presidents have more authority in their stakes now tha before...perhaps it might be the Stake Presidents suggestion.

How long did it take you to grow? My ex husband couldn't easily grow a beard. For him to have as much as you do now, it would have taken him three months!

It does look like you fell chin first in the dirt. Normally I like facial hair on men. But this style of beard doesn't do you justice. Your face is just too long. Perhaps if you had thicker hair on your head and a thicker rounder beard, it would shorten and soften your face.

I vote: SHAVE

well I vote keep it and see where it goes... your wife might like how it turns out.... but if IF she doesn't.... I think you need to take her feelings into consideration too.

PS... I like the scruffy look on you Jason. It suits you :)
