The last time I saw my upper lip was 1984. That's why it's been since 1984. Well today, for a hoot, I shaved off the
'stache. My wife was talking to me and stopped to scream.
My daughter wants her Daddy back. I thought my son was gonna revert to thumb sucking. The dog still thinks I'm cool as hell.
That was fun!

HAH! I have the exact same story, after 9 years with my stache I parted with it one night, after getting a few requests to do so.

For the next week everyone I know said "don't you EVER shave that again!" HAHA

Always good times

I had one for a couple months last winter. My wife kept telling me to 'shave that awful thing off'. I did. She didn't notice till a couple days later when my daughter came over and did. And no, it had nothing to do with the size of my schnoz or nose hair.

I have had a beard since 1979. I shaved it once in 1983. My mother in law has always wanted me to shave. When I did it she was away on vacation for 3 weeks. I had a beard when she left and most of it had grown back by the time she returned. She has never seen me without a beard. Anyway, the first day I shaved an aqaintance of mine made the comment that I looked like a moon face. That was the end of shaving for me.

I first grew my mustache in 1969. It was bad and I had to burn a match then rub it on my fuzz to make it look darker. Later in my drunken fighting stage of my life I sustained damage to my upper lip when I kept throwing my face into some dudes fist to see if I could hurt his knuckles. Then it became a cosmetic thing and so I have had it 40 years. Yikes!! No more matches though. M

I didn't have any until September, decided to grow a mustache and goatee for the halibut. I have to keep it real short - when I had hair, it was curly. Don't know how long I'll keep it.

And LMAO@Ultraman ;-)

One night, a couple of years ago, after drinking heavily for some reason, I was doing a trim on what little hair I had (which must have seemed like a good idea at the time).

I ended up bald.

Been that way ever since......

No hair from the neck up

Back in high school I grew one to look older. I had it until I turned 40. One night when I was trimming it up, I just whacked it off. It felt really weird for a few days, it took my wife about a day to notice. I grew it back once about 6 months later and it had too much gray in it, so I whacked it off again... this time to look younger. A couple years ago I tried the stashe and goatee...it just wasn't me so I've been facial hairless since then, if not shaving except 2 or 3 times a week counts.

I used to wear a goatee a lot but I'd go through phases...clean shaven for a few months, goatee a few months. Now I'm clean shaven and it'll stay that way. Always took a few days to get used to the change. No moustache, though, looks goofy on me.

Nope. I once didn't shave for three days. That was enough for me....

I started a goat about 10 years ago.

I kept it for about 3 years and when I went to work at the Delaware State Police, had to shave it (dress code bull).

so I did and kept the stash... in hind sight, the stash made me look like an 80s child molester. Grew the goat back in 2004 and that's that.
