I did the handlebar and chin puff thing and kind of rocked it.  I felt like a supervillain from a silent film.

Might have been the Hollywoodian. They're pretty close, with one just a little more blended to the face. I've considered the Hollywoodian a couple of times, for kind of a Sid Haig look. Never did it though.

Of this chart, I've done the Fu Manchu (before I met my wife - she hates that one), the Van Dyke, the short boxed beard, something like the ducktail, the Zappa, the petit goatee (maybe not as pointy), and my current and favourite, the stache and chin puff. Not really a handlebar though, more like the mustache on the Sparrow. I've pretty much avoided growing anything on the cheeks since I started turning white there.

I had an odd thing going on in college and I realize what I'm about to say will be hard to picture.  I grew my sideburns out kind of handlebar style but didn't sport a mustache, rather just a goatee with the burns.  Shaving that was more than impossible at times. 

Question for my bearded brethren...how long do you let your facial hair grow?  I let my goatee get long at times.  Often it takes my boss to start referring to me as "Jim 'The Anvil' Neihart" to get me to trim it.  I do keep my stache more trimmed though.  I hate when it gets too bushy, I find it irritates the hell out of my lip.  I'm not sure how people like Sam Elliot and Tom Selleck deal with theirs.

Oh side note I was thinking of the other day.  Does anyone else feel kind of sorry for the Hitler stache?   Isn't odd that a facial hair style be retired because of one a-hole?  Then again, did anyone wear it before him?

Charlie Chaplin!  Well, around the same time, I guess.  I heard that Hitler "stole" the stache from Charlie to make people like him more, so that would mean that Charlie Chaplin had it first.  I don't know if that's true though.

Yep...silly me.  So say if I choose to look like Charlie Chaplin, I'm going to get flamed for doing the Hitler stache.  I think it is dead and burried as a facial hair style .

The chin puff I try to keep fairly short. The stache I can sometimes forget to trim, although it never gets so long as to be really noticeable. I've let the goatee grow to near Jim the Anvil length once, just to try it, and I did go for a really long beard once. The problem is, my facial hair is not the kind that comes in all full and bushy, and if it gets beyond a certain length, it starts to curl in unwanted directions. So the Jim Neidhart and Grizzly Adams looks didn't stay for too long. Mostly, I look best when I keep things somewhat trimmed and the edges well defined. Even when I was wearing the full beard, I'd shave my neck and cheeks to give it a nice shape.

Yeah, rather unfortunate about the Hitler stache. It's weird that part of the guy's legacy is effectively killing off an entire facial hair style. There is not one other person in all of history who can claim to have given a mustache a bad name.

Speaking of staches that pretty much stayed confined to the early 20th century, has anybody tried a pencil-thin mustache? That's one I wanted to do, but I don't have the right mustache to do it. Not thick enough directly above the lip.

I'd probably do it on a dare.   I know it would net me a lot of flack which I would welcome.  But nope, I haven't tried it.  Next time I shave the stache I may just do that.

Yes, but then I've been growing it ever since I retired 16 months ago, but next month I'm going into the barbershop and have it all cut off, as I'm going to Europe next month, and as the photo in my passport looks nothing like I look now, I got this fear that I'll be stopped someplace and held for questioning.

And then when I get  back from Europe, I'll probably let it grow out for another six months, before I have it cut again, as I don't have another overseas trip planned till a cruise to the Bahamas at the end of December.

Yeah, when I was a kid, there was a friend of the family - a university professor - who travelled to the Soviet Union on some kind of academic business. He's had a beard pretty much as long as I can remember but his passport photo had no beard. Of course, they detained him at the border and eventually made him shave the beard off before they'd let him in. The Cold War was an interesting time.

Currently working on a full gentlemen's beard.  I expect it to be filled in by midweek.
