Can you grow a mustache/beard, or have you ever sported one? Your thoughts on facial hair?

No, because expensive lasers that I couldn't pay for alone. People's facial hair is like all body hair to me, it's just kinda there on someone's face, and I'm like, "all right." But when it was there and then it's suddenly gone that does hit me. Mostly because I realize I had no idea what a friend's face looked like even though I saw them all the time. I couldn't have described them accurately to a sketch artist.

I’m very partial to facial hair. Not those great big lumberjack beards that are fashionable just now; more of a designer stubble.

I can just about grow a beard - no gaps but its not a full as I'd like (canadian lumberjack thick please)

While I have a little hair covering my skin almost everywhere as a fluffy almost invisible fluff, I cannot claim that to be a beard. So I never sported a mustache out of inability. Nevertheless I like some sorts of beards on men. Some women cope with a little dark shade on their upper lip but I never found that to be bad.

I can, I actually do often because I'm too lazy to shave every other day. I can get into real mountain man territory 🧔😆

At best, I can probably grow a circle beard. The growth on my cheeks isn't as good, and the colour being fair also works against how visible it is. I also developed trichotillomania (hair pulling disorder) a year or two ago (in my case, exclusively with my facial hair) which makes it impossible to grow a beard anyway. A shame because I've let my hair grow long these past couple of years, and I think it would look better with a beard.

For some reason I can't do proper beards yet, but I did go through a moustachey phase. And speaking about moustaches, it's the only good thing about facial hair in my opinion.

My hair is thick, curly, and coarse and doesn't grow fast or long, but I can scratch out the start of a beard and I both rue and lament my inability to grow one of those 'mountain man' beards, it's so unfair ,,,anyway I think some people look better with it than others
