Face It!

There must be no other region in the world where facial hair is so prevalent. Perhaps it is our virility. Perhaps it is just laziness. Either way what does a particular style say about you? For anything half-decent you need to grow your hair for close to four weeks without trimming. Full-face-of-hair now at the ready, choose one of these fashionable styles, but do so carefully because here is what you are stating.

Hanging Tough

Shaped like an upturned horseshoe, this genus from the moustache family depicts a man who possesses a streak of acute stubbornness, has a tendency for rebelliousness, relies on chance and his wits to get him by and get him what he wants. A conversation opener, you’re sure to be asked, more often than not, “Where is the rest of it?”

All Rounder

Sometimes mistaken for a goatee, this style actually belongs to the beard family. Denoting someone that is confident, knowledgeable in all areas, the man that sports this ‘cut’ is self-assured, self-sufficient, if a little bit on the cocky side. Its perfect proportions will get you noticed by the ladies – no small feat for some.

The Moralist

Following a strict code of conduct and beard length, the man who wears this beard doesn’t joke around, at least not in public. Always wanting to walk a straight and narrow path, he is dignified, faithful and honest. Currently propping up on many a face across the region, it is a trend to be reckoned with, as is the man who sports it.

Kingdom’s Dome

This triple-decker can sometimes be taken for a moon’s different waxing and waning phases. Choose this style and you will be pointed out in the street as being young, educated, fashionable, and debonair, if not also quite regal. Men who don the Dome tend to work in finance and are fairly affluent. A lady killer.
