Thread: Compliment or no compliment?

Since I started straight shaving I shave every third day. So when I shave on Monday, the next time is Thursday. With few exceptions: the occasions I cannot show up unshaved or the weeks off when I do not shave at all. Or the short period in which I tried to shave every second day.

The thing is that when I have a three or more day stubble some female colleagues at the office and some friends make compliments. They think it looks well.

What are your experiences?

Some guys look like George Clooney when they skip a few days. Myself, I look more like Joe Dirt.

I feel like Joe dirt cannot stand to be un-shaven

Good if you can pull that off. Some genetic deficiency makes me look like I have the mange.. Aparrently my ancestors were not chick magnets...

It's kinda like the shaved head thing, some guys can pull that off and others not so much. Me, I can't pull off the stubble beard much anymore. My beard isn't patchy or anything but alas most of it has turned...uh...blonde and so I look like a really old homeless guy after a couple days of not shaving.

I have been told many times I look better with facial hair than clean shaven. Maybe it suits your face better with a little stubble.

If chicks dig it, rock the stubble bro!

I have a baby face so I can't pull it off.

I've had more luck shaving the back of my head and walking backwards.

The key here is "some". Some people have taste like my you know what. What do the majority of folks say?

I say check the ring finger... I don't know if you're married or not, but if there's a ring there; then "thanks for the compliments"...I keep shaving, if no ring...well I may take it a little more to heart lol! Don't ban me for this...I'm a nice guy, REALLY I AM!
