Mustaches - yes or no? With or without a beard?

[Dervill Crow]

My husband shaved his beard off yesterday and left the mustache, and I hate it! Does a mustache have any business being on a face without an accompanying beard?

I don't have a picture, so I have to pose this as a general question. He has a really long skinny face and pointed chin, sort of a human greyhound. (We're a really odd couple, since I'm more of a pug.)

The beard was sort of goatee-type thing and made him look quite intellectual, but with just the 'stache I think it's dorky. Am I being too critical?

16. Ah yes, I have seen your picture. Thanks for reposting!

You're right. A mustache without the goatee can be quite nice.

I'll have to give this new look of my honey's a chance.

2. I'm with you

I need a beard with my mustache...but then I didn't even like beards, till Sniffa grew one, now I love his...

9. Yep. I didn't like facial hair either, but . . .

I was going to say it grew on me. LOL - that's another story for another time. Damn that perimenopause! :mad:

3. I don't go in for facial hair of any kind.

It makes me look like a giant douchebag.

6. Personally I ~love~ facial hair on a man,

but I'm still going to recommend you give it a couple of weeks before you decide on your hubby's 'stache. I think sometimes just the shock of having a dramatic change in a face you've grown to love can leave a negative impression.

12. Best advice yet.

I wasn't sure if it looked weird because I am unused to it or if it really is unusual. I don't actually pay attention to men and their facial hair or lack of it, but it seems like there are more mustaches with accompanying beards and goatees.

7. Goatee here.....

I had one a long time before they were cool. Keep it trimmed short.

10. I think it totally depends on the face

sorry.

11. I'm not big on facial hair.

Just me! But a man who looks a little scruffy is hot in my book!
