I partook last year and grew a gunfighter tache to make Hulk Hogan proud, but as in currently sporting a full beard I shan't be doing it this year.
Nice one! In the 2 months that I've been reading these forums and read your posts, I'd expect nothing less than a gunfighter tache from you :smile:

I'm doing terrible, it's a bit lop sided - nothing to do with my trimming, it's just a little greyer on my left side. :confused:

Pretty even and soft now. I did shape it a little as the full MAGNUM just didn't suit me. Must get an update on mobro later today.
Have around £50 in pledges,as friends and family laugh,then ask,then admire ..... And finally part with some cash!

Well it's good they end up admiring it :smile: I'm pretty certain with mine it goes; quizzical look, laugh, laugh, laugh, ewwww, revulsion.... :smile:

My mum has finally succumb to donate, on the promise it (whatever 'it' actually becomes! Magnum is but a distant dream.) gets removed on Dec 1st.

I am happy with my first week attempt. I am going for the "Falklands Marine Corporal" look, with a bit of a "soul patch" just to let people know I am not really attempting to look like a 1980s squaddie

I can't take part in Movember as I have beard-tache-sideburns combo that I've had for years. No I won't shave them off either. Accidently took sideburns off a few weeks back ( forgot to put beard trimmer length guide back on when I cleaned it). But grown them back already. I'm sponsoring my brother and GF's son though.

Surely not after just one week :smile:.

It takes ages for my facial hair to grow too, I'm lucky if I have to shave more than once a week!

Also suggested to my wife about me growing a moustache for movember. She wasn't impressed at all, said I'd look awful (polite version of what she actually said) in the pics with our new baby (due today aarrrgghh!) :-D :-D

I've no idea how long it would take me to grow a moustache. I've had mine for about 30 years and it's only even been shaved off twice in that time (once when a trimming got out of hand and I ended up looking like Adolf Hitler and once because my wife wanted to see what I'd look like).
I've always wanted to grow a beard but as I've been in the military for over 25 years that's not been an option. Once, after 3 back-to-back tours in Iraq I found myself with an obscene amount of leave that I had to take all at once (about 4 weeks) so decided to give it a go. It was at this point that I realised I'd left it too late, the beard grew very rapidly and with even coverage :thumbsup: the problem was it was a sort of stripy Badger style mix of black, brown, ginger and grey :wacko:

I did get another £20 for the cause :biggrin:
