Shaving my face feels great. I haven't had any major hairs come in yet, but shaving off all that peach fuzz is an affirming ritual. I love looking at myself in the mirror with the shaving cream on my face.
So glad you're enjoying it! You can have my facial hair too if you want... I have more than enough to go around and I want literally none of it hahaha
I would gladly take your facial hair. It's likely gonna be a couple of years before I can grow a decent looking beard.
Me too! Take my whole beard, sideburns, nose hairs (okay maybe not those...)
I want sideburns and a mustache so badly
I am not greatly blessed on that front. It's there but... kinda weak compared to the beard.
Sideburns go crazy tho, kind of a pain given I have a huge head and wear glasses. Every haircut I ever got I asked to have the sideburns G O N E, only one hairstylist ever did it and it was wonderful for like, a week.
Can relate on hairstylists never doing what you ask. Back in my less passing days I'd show a reference photo of a very clearly manly man and they'd still somehow manage to femme up the cut. Apparently the way they cut sideburns, the way they shape the back of the head towards the bottom, and a bunch of other stuff is heavily gendered. It's ridiculous.
I haven't had a haircut since.... I wanna say 2019. I hated how short it became and as it turned out, not a single interviewer gave a shit how long my hair was so it got cut down to like, ear length, for nothing.
