1. you do look younger

you look great, just get a ski scarf or something, pretend you're half french and you won't freeze your face and you can still keep the look :-)

6. I was, I was...

but my daughter thinks I'm more handsome now, and says I look young like a teen-ager.

Who can argue with such a brilliant judge of character...

9. I like you both ways!

But you do look younger without it! Daughters seem to know best in these areas. :hi: :hug:

10. I was just thinking about growing a beard myself.

Guess that kills it.

[RetroLounge]

12. That would be totally hot!

Might be gray, though...

:hi:

[graywarrior]

14. Of course, but I was thinking of bleaching it blonde, like Custer.

[Sanity Claws]

17. Yes, new look is better

Now we're able to see your handsome face.

[TheBaldyMan]

22. Cool library. The classiest wallpaper in the world.

[ThomCat]

26. You were damned sexy with that beard

(though it looked better with a matching mustach.)

Without the beard you're just... Friggin Hawt! That's all. :7

[SeattleGirl]

27. You look great in both pictures, but I do like the shaved face better.

:loveya:

[CaliforniaPeggy]

28. My dear Retro!

You are sexy, no matter what you have on your face, sweetie! :loveya:

29. My hubby shaved his beard for the first time in 12 yrs a couple yrs ago

it made him look so much younger and it took me a while to get used to him at first. It was like kissing a seal, so slippery!! :)

Now, of course, I'm used to it and prefer him clean-shaven. He's kept it off. But, I also find the rough - hewn look to be incredibly sexy, too. I like the "5-o'clock shadow" look, personally.

The change becomes you! You're a handsome guy, Retro. :hug: You've got a great warm smile to warm up your cold face. :D

:hi:

[GirlinContempt]

30. Much better

[NewWaveChick1981]

31. Lookin' hot, RL!!!!

I like beards on guys, but I like you clean-shaven!!!! :D :*
