No Shave November
 
It's that time of the year again, I hope you're all freshly shaven for this month's contest. Grizzly Adams DID have a beard.

Rules of play:

1. No shaving
2. Absolutely no shaving
3. Ball hard

It's an honor to be a man, and growing a beard is one way to enhance your manly-ness.

May the best beard win.

Who's in?

Splitime 11-01-2010 10:01 AM

I don't grow a beard worth a shit. Plus once they hit the itch point... FFFFFF That.

Braineack 11-01-2010 10:02 AM

I might get some peach fuzz by the end of the month. My butt hair will be like 17" however.

Watch out for EEHG* too.

I have a professional job - thusly, I don't have the ability to grow a professional beard.

Newbsauce 11-01-2010 10:38 AM

But you can grow a professional mustache.

mgeoffriau 11-01-2010 10:57 AM

Dunno if I really want to go clean shaven tomorrow. Also, I'd hate to embarrass all you fresh-cheeked choir boys.

wayne_curr 11-01-2010 11:00 AM

We had trick or treaters last night that could grow more facial hair than me. Not kidding.

I'd participate in NSN but my facial hair just looks like a rapist goatee rather than a beard :(

I haven't shaved in months. This month is no fucking different. Pansies.

gospeed81 11-01-2010 11:16 AM

I shaved Saturday morning...do I qualify?

I only shave weekly, and don't want to shave again.

I'm in if so...

Doppelgänger 11-01-2010 11:49 AM

I look like a homeless bum if I don't shave for 2 weeks.

I've got to keep my smooth face to keep the 'I drive a Miata so I must get gay' persona alove for the rest of you.

rleete 11-01-2010 12:23 PM

I grow facial hair at an unbelievable rate. I'm one of those guys that has to shave at night if I take the wife out to dinner, even though I shaved in the morning. If there's an evolutionary advantage to growing hair so fast, I've yet to find it. In about 2 weeks I'd look like mgeoffriau's avatar pic. Except it'd be mostly grey now.

To add insult to injury, I'm bald, too.

mgeoffriau 11-01-2010 12:25 PM

mgeoffriau 11-01-2010 12:38 PM

I don't know if I'll ever do it again, but I'll say this: I wore that mustache for a couple months, and it was shocking how much joy it brought into the lives of everyone I met.

GTRicky 11-01-2010 12:46 PM

Army. No beard, on the weekdays. I have 4 day weekends coming up every weekend, so i'll have a beard for one day four days out of the month.


can't wait to get out and grow a legit beard.

SlideRuler 11-01-2010 01:02 PM

Shaving for the navy reserve sucks. I'd have insane hair if I could grow it for a year.

holy neck beard batman.

^ you should see my back-beard :D

Reverant 11-01-2010 01:31 PM

I hated every minute of my life in the army due to the beard. Nowadays I usually shave before Sat night.

rmcelwee 11-01-2010 01:54 PM

I work in a chemical plant so we cannot have a beard (emergency respirator concerns).


Walk around like this for a month or fail:

If I could grow a beard I would go for the relaxed look:

This thread has the potential to become seriously disturbing.

localtech 11-01-2010 02:36 PM

hahahahaha this is great. Yea, I work at an engineering firm so I would catch a lot of crap if I didnt shave for to long. I would have to take like two weeks off of work and come back with my beard rather than growing it out as I work.

viperormiata 11-01-2010 02:51 PM

I will win this competition. I shave maybe once a month or two and I can still grow a beard in between shaving time, MU HA HA HA.

Seriously, I look like a turd with out one :giggle:

kotomile 11-01-2010 03:48 PM

I have a head start, I don't have to shave until the 7th...

icantthink4155 11-01-2010 03:55 PM

I cant grow facial hair for shit either. Its kinda suprizing how many guys cant. Makes me feel better.

Vashthestampede 11-01-2010 04:13 PM

I have to keep up maintenance or else I start getting scruffy. I never really let it grow too crazy before, but long enough that it was lumber jack enough for me.

I've either worked construction, on a farm, as a mechanic, or for myself, so I never really had any reason that I couldn't let it go for a little.

I usually don't let it go any further than this.

I heard or read somewhere that chin-straps are for douchebags. Can anyone confirm or deny?

Not sure, do you have one?

False, I rock the chin strap, as I can't grow a moustache.

pusha 11-01-2010 05:27 PM

Because it's "no-shave November," I wholeheartedly believe grooming the neckbeard is acceptable. No one wants to walk around looking like Abe Lincoln.

SlideRuler 11-01-2010 05:30 PM

Maybe I do? Abe Lincoln was a great man.

pusha 11-01-2010 05:31 PM

He also got shot in the back of his fucking head.

i just dont like the mustache and how it tickles. i shave it in preference for the chin balls look. my beards last maybe 2 weeks before it ends up that way.

good ol tits mc'gee here liked my chin balls.

Oscar 11-01-2010 05:37 PM

I was gonna be all over this, but I found out I have a job interview tomorrow and desperately need to shave :vash:

SKMetalworks 11-01-2010 05:46 PM

I already have a month chin beard but when I did movember last year my mustach would do this thing where my left side of stash would be flipped up like a cowlick and the right side would be normal . When it got longer it looked crazy stupid. Ill try again this year.

Hmm. On the one hand, when I'm at home, I work in a lab full of engineers, some of whom fit the "ole' greybeard" stereotype. So it wouldn't be out of place.

On the other hand, if I don't shave for a week, I wind up looking like the stereotypical crazy islamic extremist, and I'll be passing through several checkpoints and boarding a US-bound international flight in about a week and a half.

On the gripping hand, what's the worst that can happen? I'm detained in a small room and interrogated by Germans?

thirdgen 11-01-2010 06:55 PM

Saw this first thing this morning and thought about it. I haven't shaved since Friday, but if I go a week without shaving I'll get too agitated by the itch. I'm still on the fence with this.

In for excellent write-up of mistaken-for-terrorist story.

I'm in, just shaved last night.

The itching normally starts between 7 and 10 days. Then goes away by about day 14. Three weeks in, the quills you refer to as your beard softens into something resembling hair.

Although the "challenge" sounds somewhat fun, I'll stick with the look I'm sporting now.

However, in light of some of the other offerings attached above, I grant you an image taken a handful of years ago with about two and a half months growth...

messiahx 11-01-2010 11:18 PM

I would if I could. Got Mustache March in a few months which is about all I can do. I can grow a decent chinstrap (which I do every time I go on leave) but with just a mustache, I look so much like a pedophile that people who I've never even seen before feel the need to comment on it.

I grew mine out for eight months with just a little trimming. Since then I've been trimming it every week.

Excuse the look. I'd been working on caging the rally car for eight hours.

Here I am this spring after three months of growth.

johnwag 11-02-2010 12:35 AM

i haven't used a razor on my face since sometime early summer of '09. I usually just mow with the beard trimmer. I haven't mowed in a week. I'll mow tonight.

My hair also hasn't been cut in a few months....

Bryce 11-02-2010 12:51 AM

I am going to take part in this, but am also taking advantage of a week (weak)'s head start. I'll need it. The GF is going to hate me.

I grow facial hair fast, it just sucks that it's thin and patchy. Never saw a Native American in a painting or photo rocking an Abe Lincoln beard... I'm a lot native, so yeah.

Anyone in on this? I haven't shaved since the last Friday in October, so I guess that counts.

I broke down and shaved on the 13th of November. It itched to much to keep going.

I'm still going hard, would get pics, but my phone is full of pictures from super hot naked chicks so I'll wait until the end of the month to post up.

levnubhin 11-14-2010 09:33 PM

I haven't shaved in about 10 days, nothing to brag about yet.
