To shave or not to shave, that is the question

[SANDRO43]

Did he try to rub onion purée or tincture of cayenne mixed with warm olive oil into skin?

I doubt he may have sought the services of a chef to solve his hair problem .

What's happen to his smile? Did he has a plastic surgery?

I wouldn't be surprised, he's VERY image-conscious. Though he seems to be suffering from piles in that photo .

BTW there are also some recipes for pile problem 

Do you think this can help during photo sessions to hold his image?

I have had a mustache since I graduated from highschool.  (They didn't allow them in highschool when I attended)  Of course I didn't have all this information from RWD when I went to meet Lena.  She liked my mustache and loved the way it tickled her when we kissed. 

When I first met Lena, I had mostly dark hair and my stache was all dark.  In the last 10 years my stache is all gray and most of my hair is gray.  (Take note newbies)  Even though I have offered, Lena is adamant that I not dye my hair.  She loves the look of the gray hair.  Still, it bugged me, especially the white mustache.  About a year ago, I shaved off the mustache completely.  OMG!!!  :hairraising: We both hated how I looked sans mustache.  It was grown back ASAP.  Gray or not, the stache will stay with me forever now. :hipdude:

Probably, but seeing his security detail carrying a set of those along might make reporters speculate they're headed to the nearest beach for a swim, and making sure he'll keep his new hair out of the water .

To keep the new hair out of water (just for any case) I would advise him to cover his hair with the goose grease before swimming, it will look like he used the brilliantine and will not hurt his image

Olga, I have no idea where goose grease might be obtained in Italy nowadays, except maybe in some Chinese shops also selling unicorn-horn powder, dragon teeth, gryphon livers and Yeti-hair doormats .

Sandro,

I found it... in France 

In some parts of France, everyday cooking is still based on goose fat

OlgaPedia, I knew I could rely on you . Now we only have to invade France and take over their paté de fois gras factories. Last time we tried, in 1940, we didn't fare too well, though .

Sandro, too much trouble and taking into consideration not so successful experience in the past, please, do not suggest him the such option.

Just ask him to PM me and I will send him a couple of nice looking fat geese

My question to the ladies on this forum is: will it make me look like a weak man if I shave at my lady's request?

There is a certain irony here.

I am about to make my second trip to see my wonderful Ukrainian woman whom I adore.  I am contemplating shaving my beard because she hinted at our first meeting that I might look better without it. My question to the ladies on this forum is: will it make me look like a weak man if I shave at my lady's request?

Thanks.

1. No you will not look weak at her eyes. Opposite it will show that you are not against to try out some of her ideas. It is not like "okay I will demand from him to shave his beard, lets see if he will follow my demands". It is just a normal women's nature to make some trying for looking better.
2. Many women do not like beards or really think the beard is spoiling their man's charm.
3. In my experience my college at work asked her husband to shave his beard. After he did it she came to conclusion that with the beard it is more good, so they returned all as it was. And she calmed down that they tried "her variant".

If you think it would be better to shave, I would do so. I do because I look like a pirate from a Hollywood movie, and my beard is just as gray as the rest of my hair making me look even older than I really am. Consideration for others is never a sign of weakness. If your beard is on the thin side like mine, it's better to be clean shaven than to have what amounts to a bristle brush on your chin too.
