My moustache is dumb.
 
I'm shaving it off tonight. I tried growing it out, for the "full beard" effect, but I just don't like it. It looks scuzzy. And it's scratchy.

I can handle the Amish/Abe Lincoln jokes that go along with a moustache-less beard. FYI: it's a Donegal beard (i.e. like a leprechaun).

I always thought they were called Chinstrap beards. But apparently the Abe Lincoln style is called a Donegal or a Chin Curtain.

A chinstrap is like... if you're in an R & B video.

A chinstrap is thin (sideburn-width) all the way across.
A Donegal is a full beard... without a moustache.

I think your moustache is your best feature.

I think we need a picture. And then a vote.

I agree with Sundae

I don't think your moustache is dumb; it speaks volumes about you.

Mine is too.. I've given up trying to teach it to read. It just wants to drink and watch TV Land.

Back when I had a beard, my mustache was the weak link. It just never got a thick as I would have liked. As much as I didn't like it, I wasn't willing to shave it off and do the Abe Lincoln.

PM Shawnee123 to explain it to you.

When Red and I were dating, he had a nice thick moustache. He grew it back in high school, to cover a scar from a split upper lip. I liked it. At one point while trimming it, he accidently nicked it badly enough that he had to shave it totally off and regrow it. I told him never ever, under any circumstances shave it off again.

Fast forward about 9 years. He decided he wants to be clean shaven for awhile and see how that goes. I told him to go ahead, but was not real excited about it. Whoa! Hello! I told him never ever, under any circumstances grow it back again. :lol:

Don't ask me what changed, but I like him much better without it now. He's been that way now for 3 years maybe?

My personal favorite look on him though is a trimmed goatee, :heartpump . Just long enough so that it's soft, but not so long it collects things.

Like Star Wars action figures?

lose the beard while you're at it. It makes you look manky.
