So that was movember

and it was fun. Pretty much the laziest way to try and raise money for charity. shave less.

And i can honestly say it hasn’t had impact on my luck with the ladies

this is it half gone

and here is my ugly mug with the lot gone, including all the head hair–

cept for the tickler thingo. Gunna keep that for a bit. Might try and grow it past my double chin

it’s movemba bitches

As one of only 2 actual males posting on this site, i have decided to show what a moustache like up close for those of you that perhaps have yet to see one.

I am really hanging out to shave it off.

In other news the other part of the experiment has turned into a failure. The hair on my head will grow back, albeit very slowly BUT

the hair that i have been shaving since i was 10, is receding. So it looks like the last vestiges of my youth have been lost. Oh well I’ll always have my Star wars Lego.

I am having bad luck calling in the various promised donations. I may get another $100. Everybody i know in the real world seem to be a bunch of tightarsed scumbags.

over the hump

A small update to show i'm still attempting this madness.
For very brief moments i forget i have an insect on my lip

The growth seems to have slowed. I caught a hair in my teeth the other day.
It hurt like hell and i cried like a little girl

The hair on my head can now me pinched, am a little concerned that it doen't seem to be regrowing much at the front. But i’m glad i decided to grow my hair at the same time- look slightly less stupid. only slightly. Thinking about keeping the soul patch thingo come december 1. AND I need to start demanding money off people. They owe me for every stupid school/ballet/taekwondo/football raffle/spellathon/overpriced chocolate frog i have ever been subjected to.

end of the beardy nutter

My reasons for doing this were twofold, one was to support movember and all it’s good workand the other was  to do a little experiment. I have entered the final stage of my little experiment.
what i wanted to do was
(a) find out if i could grow facial hair
(b) find out if the hair on my head would grow back
(c) If the hair on my head grew back, would it grow back at the same speed as the hair on my face
(d) find out if any gray had snuck in there.

 

day 4

day 5

day 5 Beard

Day 6

so it would seem that the answers to (a) would be yes, & (d) thankfully no (and if you see any its a trick of the light so sod off)

day 6 head

The answer to (b) would be yes & (c) would be no. As yet i can’t pull on the hair on my head

The beard goes tomorrow, seeing as my experiment is over. I think i will form an untidy chevron  with a small soupatch. We’ll see. I have a lot to work with.

2009 a face odyssey

I have never had a moustache or beard.
As a general rule i shave my face and my head every day. It takes me 15-20 minutes if i am standing in the mirror, up to 45minutes if i am reading or wandering about the house spreading my own version of pixie dust.

Since i was 20 the most i have gone with out shaving was 3 days.
So for some reason i decided to join this merry band of men.

The first week is going to be no shaving at all to see if the hair on my head grows at the same rate as my face. My first day at work i got pinged straight away as to what i was doing.

Now people are staring at me, remember normally i am brutally clean shaven

I am going to form this jungle into a moustache on Saturday or sunday morning. There is another guy at work here doing this, but i am slaughtering him. And for the record the hair on my head is growing slower, my face hair is able to be pulled on.
