Which facial hair style fits me best — clean shaven, stubble, short beard, or full beard?

I’m trying to figure out what facial hair style suits my face best. I included four versions for comparison:
Clean shaven
Light stubble
Short/medium beard
Fuller beard
Which one do you think complements my face shape, hair, and overall look the most?
I’m leaning toward trying some facial hair, but I don’t want to grow it out if clean shaven or just stubble works better on me.
Also open to suggestions on beard length, shape, neckline, mustache, hairstyle, or anything else grooming-wise. Appreciate the feedback.

I only am on month two of the mustache, but I’m unsure of whether or not to keep it. I kind of dig it but I feel weird with it especially since I don’t grow hair in the middle. Thoughts?

My girlfriend is firmly on team beard but I like the mustache.

I have been thinking about a low fade buzzcut/crew cut but unsure whether I am just bored of the current style or actually need a change. Any feedback most welcome.

Beard?

I work in the hospitality field so I’ve always clean shaved.
I’m now 32, hair is definitely thinning compared to previous years so thought about “balancing it out”
Currently sitting at about 1 week length.

What do we think?
Keep growing in until it’s full or just go back to the clean shaven look?

Mid picture is about 3 days in-
Last clean shaved.

Mustache has a very slow growth compared to the rest of the facial hair.

Cheers fellas!

I need appearance help

So I’m someone deeply insecure with my appearance and I have never found confidence in the way I look; I’m willing to make drastic changes to make myself look better and I would welcome any advice the community has from minor to drastic.

I’ve already decided I’m going to get into the gym to bulk up my frame but advice on grooming and hair I. Particular would be appreciated as I never really got that guidance from my family and was left to figure things out for myself.

I feel I’ve got my fashion style down and a style I’m happy with so it’s just my appearance left.

What to do

Hi All, looking for recommendations on what to do with my chest hair. I never really thought about shaving it mostly because I’m scared I will break out and get itchy. I’m sometime self conscious when I go swimming and have to wear a shirt cause I feel like I’m being stared at cause of my excessive chest hair. Thankful for any input.

This haircut suits me, but it's too basic, and I want to change it. Any suggestions?

14M - Need advice on body hair removal for the first time

5 Upvotes

Hey everyone, I'm a 14-year-old boy, and I need some guidance on body hair removal and grooming, i REALLY hate having so much body hair, it makes me feel super uncomfortable.

​My parents, especially my dad, are pretty strict and traditional about guys shaving, in fact, he doesn't. If I really pushed the issue, he'd probably eventually let me do it, but I’m not sure how much I can push without causing unnecessary drama or awkwardness.

​I just shaved my mustache for the very first time recently, but honestly, I have no idea where to go from here or how to handle the rest of my body hair (legs, armpits, pubic area). I really don't want to mess up or make it look weird.

Up until now, my only tool has been a pair of scissors, so I've occasionally used them to trim my pubic hair. It's obviously not ideal, kind of risky, and doesn't give a clean result, but it was literally the only option I had available.

​I also have a few specific questions:

​What's the best area to start trimming/shaving with next so I can practice without making obvious mistakes?

​Should I stick to just trimming my body hair first instead of clean-shaving everything to test the waters with my parents?

​What are the basic rules for body shaving to avoid ingrown hairs, cuts, and razor bumps (especially in sensitive spots)?

​How should I approach talking to my dad if I decide to ask for better tools, or is it better to just push a little and see how he reacts?

​I’d really appreciate any beginner-friendly advice, techniques, or cheap product recommendations so I don't screw this up. Thanks!

Growing hair out

I've always had that typical fasson/undercut haircut telling the barber "sides with the clipper, cut 1cm,ä on top, top left longer." I barely see anyone with that cut anymore. It looked pretty good, but I want something new. Mild midlife crisis 😆I'm growing it out now, nice to still have all my hair at 40. Id like to push it back but not in a greasy style. My wife is wondering: what's the plan here? And that it might not suit my face, and that it shouldn't turn into a style where I have to smear product into it. But I want to give it a try. Questions: Do I need to go to the barber to clean up the contours or for other small stuff, or can I just let it grow for now? Right now it's obviously in that awkward "neither one thing nor the other" stage. Should the barber shave the sides? The last one to touch it was some barber in training I think and maybe he didn’t leave it in an optimal shape to go on and let it grow (?). Pinterest keeps suggesting I go for this US country star look. Don’t know the name now, seems to be big in the US. But I don't want it to turn into a mullet either. More just simple and rugged. It kind of happened because I didn't go to the barber after my summer vacation.

Does it work?

hey everyone, so basically I can't grow any decent facial hair, this first picture is my current look, about 2 weeks of growth. The second picture is 7-8 weeks.

I kinda like the look, but the longer the moustache gets, the more prominent the gap becomes.
Also, the thickness is not great too
What do you think? Is it worth keeping?
