Next month, it begins. A whole month, razorless.

WHO AMONG YOU HAS COURAGE ENOUGH TO BRAVE THESE WILDS?

EN GARDE

(i can dream)

I did this last year. It was itchy and patchy and all around crappy. My girlfriend stopped loving me for 30 days (emotionally). It was basically a shitty neckbeard.

To you I say "Never Again!"

StaedlerMars · « **Reply #2 on:** 21 Oct 2009, 02:41 »

I'm in.

Mainly because I do this anyway.

evilbobthebob · « **Reply #3 on:** 21 Oct 2009, 02:41 »

I already have a beard, but I need to keep it trimmed for my job (bar work) so

FIXDIX · « **Reply #4 on:** 21 Oct 2009, 02:44 »

I have not shaved for three years.

I am always ready for November.

Lunchbox · « **Reply #5 on:** 21 Oct 2009, 02:53 »

Okay dudes. Don't get so cocky (although congratulations on your beardy beauty.)
There are official rules to this best month of all months.

The #1 rule is on the last day of October, you shave. Completely clean shaven (you can leave sideburns I guess). Then at the end of Novembeard the man with the best month's worth of growth wins a prize. The prize is that he knows he is the manliest man.

Here is some theme music.

Nodaisho · « **Reply #6 on:** 21 Oct 2009, 03:03 »

I would do this, as I don't have a girlfriend to worry about angering, but it would just look like I forgot to shave for a bit less than a week.

KharBevNor · « **Reply #7 on:** 21 Oct 2009, 03:24 »

I will do this but I absolutely will not shave my sideburns. I am quite happy for the sideburn area not to be counted in my case, though my sideburns are ball-rendingly awesome.

Scarychips · « **Reply #8 on:** 21 Oct 2009, 04:51 »

I'm really not sure if I'll do this. I have those teenagers beard that isn't actually growing everywhere. I still have some spots without any hair. I'll see.

The extra letter · « **Reply #9 on:** 21 Oct 2009, 04:58 »

If it wasn't for work, I would totally do this for shits and giggles. (I would totally win, of course...)

It doesn't take long for me to look like I'm chewing on a possum.

Boro_Bandito · « **Reply #10 on:** 21 Oct 2009, 05:33 »

I'm not in, I've been growing my beard since September 10th, and my hair since June, and I don't plan on shaving/trimming it until those dates comes around again at least.

smack that isaiah · « **Reply #11 on:** 21 Oct 2009, 05:40 »

I did Manuary this past January, and I got very little beard/mustache growth past the first two weeks (I'm half Asian and can't exactly get anywhere near a full beard or mustache. It grows about 1/4 to 1/2 inch and then essentially stops). It was ok cause my girlfriend was studying abroad that winter and I wasn't getting any anyways.

This November, no.

I'm pushing 40 and I still have a bald spot on each cheek. Super-suckage.

I can grow a wicked fu-manchu though.

michaelicious · « **Reply #13 on:** 21 Oct 2009, 05:48 »

I wussed out on this last year, but I won't this year! I haven't had a beard for like two years and that is just silly.

Ladies can participate, too! (If you really really want to.)

Inlander · « **Reply #15 on:** 21 Oct 2009, 06:10 »

Sadly I cannot shave to participate in this, as my beard is a force of nature and angering it would be grosslly irresponsible.

Man, it's pretty much winter here and I'm single so nobody is going to see my legs anyways.

Shaved lady legs feel weird. Stubbly lady legs feel even weirder. Ladies, let your legs be wild and free!

Professor Snuggles · « **Reply #22 on:** 21 Oct 2009, 06:33 »

I may be in. My beard is doing pretty well right now, but we'll see how I feel about doin a thing on the internet.

Tommy always wins though.

sean · « **Reply #23 on:** 21 Oct 2009, 07:05 »

sam shave right before you go to bed. unless yr too fuckin drunk to.

i plan on doing this. i probably will not perform that well but its a good way to gauge my beard power. i know i at least will up my beard from last year.

Emaline · « **Reply #24 on:** 21 Oct 2009, 07:55 »

Can I get in on this and not shave my armpits or legs or something? I already do that anyway, so.....

I may see if I can get my boyfriend on this, though he is already cultivating a fine beard.

Liz · « **Reply #25 on:** 21 Oct 2009, 08:05 »

Alright Emaline, it's you vs. me. Shave those legs for your Halloween party, then it is ON.

Lines · « **Reply #26 on:** 21 Oct 2009, 08:12 »

Liz, unless something happens and I suddenly have a boy who does not appreciate No Shave November, it's you're legs vs. mine. And Emaline's. I am shaving my pits, though, because I am not dealing with hairy pits. (Besides, I haven't shaved my legs this month anyways, so I'm sure I can deal with shaving them and then letting it grow out again.)

And don't hate, Joe Hocking.

Bastardous Bassist · « **Reply #27 on:** 21 Oct 2009, 08:49 »

No way. I cannot deal with not shaving. It's too itchy for too long. I've tried before and I get a week and a half before I try to remove my own face.

calenlass · « **Reply #28 on:** 21 Oct 2009, 09:07 »

Do you ever condition? I am guessing no.

Bastardous Bassist · « **Reply #29 on:** 21 Oct 2009, 09:13 »

Do I just use regularhair conditioner on my beard? I've tried a lot of things (I've heard that shaving cream helps soften it, and does for a short time), but none of them seemed to work well enough.

0bsessions · « **Reply #30 on:** 21 Oct 2009, 09:31 »

Yes. It has a dramatic effect on the itchiness of a beard.

Caleb · « **Reply #31 on:** 21 Oct 2009, 09:33 »

I would compete and win this event with ease but my profession requires me not to look like a deranged Amish person.

BrittanyMarie · « **Reply #32 on:** 21 Oct 2009, 09:56 »

I'll do the no leg shave! If a boy can't handle a little leg hair than he sucks. I did it last year too, and was with a dude but he preferred me not shaving. He also has the best beard still.

Scandanavian War Machine · « **Reply #33 on:** 21 Oct 2009, 10:12 »

i'll probably do it.

But i am not very manly at all so there will be no beard by the end of the month. I will, however, have a pretty wicked mustache by then...except it'll be blonde so you won't be able to see it anyway.

Jace · « **Reply #34 on:** 21 Oct 2009, 10:13 »

Sam is pretty much gonna win halfway through the month.

I'm in, but don't expect much.

McTaggart · « **Reply #35 on:** 21 Oct 2009, 10:35 »

I am only in if I keep waking up after midday all through november.

Lines · « **Reply #36 on:** 21 Oct 2009, 11:58 »

Dudes, if you're worried about your faces being itchy or already have an epic beard or are not allowed to grow one, then join us ladies by shaving your legs on Halloween!

Emaline · « **Reply #37 on:** 21 Oct 2009, 12:06 »

I am so excited about this now! Except, my legs don't get that hairy. But my pits do! But no one wants to challenge me on that front. Maybe I can get the girls at work on this.

Can we post before shaving, after shaving, and after growing pictures?

Liz · « **Reply #38 on:** 21 Oct 2009, 12:14 »

Alright, so in the ladies' bracket we have...

Liz
Linds
Brittany
Emaline

Also, I don't know if it is really necessary to do before shaving pictures? I have been keeping up with shaving pretty well so the before and after shaving won't be to different. But we will do after shave and at the end of the month! May the best leg hair WIN.

LeeC · « **Reply #39 on:** 21 Oct 2009, 12:20 »

im game. No shaving anything this november...anything...

Emaline · « **Reply #40 on:** 21 Oct 2009, 12:29 »

If you don't have any hair prior to the shaving, then it is relatively pointless.

But if you have hair it might be neat to compare it to at the end of the November.

I probably won't shave my burns either. But because they are assuredly less ball-rendingly awesome than yours, I might trim 'em.

As much as I want to I've already grown my own beard and there is no way I'm going to shave it.

greenMonkey · « **Reply #44 on:** 21 Oct 2009, 14:01 »

I'd love to participate but I need a full beard for the first week of December and I am not confident in my ability to re-grow what I currently have by that time. I can probably avoid trimming though, just to be in the spirit of things.

I would participate in the leg-off, but november is coming into summer here and I will want to start wearing shorts soon. Fuck wearing shorts with hairy legs.
They would, uh, look something like this?
