Cant we have before shots at the begining of the month and after shots at the end?

Incidently....while helping my five year old wash his face this morning, I noticed he has a big white whisker like an old man hair, growing on his cheek!

Only 5 and he's growing facial hair!

Right! It's taken me hours to get THIS far. I haven't been without facial hair on my top lip in 23 years.

That razor burn SUCKS. OW, MOTHERFU......

11:30 - handlebar zones cleared. That red colour is mostly blood seeping out of skin never shaved before.

Good effort. I haven't been clean shaven for about 2 years till now!

We'll Jim it's look like you and me are the only ones brave/stupid enough to post pics. I doubt I'll grow a good mo(it sucks that you can grow hair everywhere else that you don't want it).
Anyway let the growing begin hehe.

Southern women get chance to match fuzz with Movember men

Tuesday November 7, 2006

It's been called the South Island Special.

While the men in Cromwell grow moustaches to raise awareness for prostate cancer, the women are leaving their left armpit unshaven for a month - all for Movember, the health campaign for the most common cancer among males.

When the Golden Gate Lodge in Cromwell decided to run an equal opportunity Movember competition at the start of the month, 13 women signed up.

"Some guys just can't put up with facial hair themselves, and some girls can't put up with armpit hairs. I thought it was only fair enough," said general manager Glen Christiansen.

"When you grow a beard, the wife or the girlfriend will often say, 'that's it, no snuggling for you for a month'. Now some guys have the opportunity to say to their partners, 'no snuggling for you either'."

The pub is holding Friday photo sessions to chart the 40 entrants' progress, culminating in a party on December 1 which will involve, among other things, shaving cream.

For the women, there's a bonus - the local hairdresser has signed on to do a "shape and colour" of the armpit fuzz. "She will have 13 armpits that she can shape and colour at will. It's a pretty horrid thought, really," said Mr Christiansen.

One female contestant already had "phenomenal coverage", he said.

"She's definitely got a good bit of stubble going.

"We've some that are very pathetic - and that goes with the guys as well ... It will be interesting to see in another 20 days where we're at.

"We haven't got a true ginga - which is a bit upsetting - but then they would probably win straight off."

One man and woman each stand to win a trip for two to Sydney for their month-long efforts.

More than 8000 men have pledged to grow a moustache for Movember, raising just over $100,000 so far for the Prostate Cancer Foundation.

What, no "true ginga"? What's the world coming to? How can it be a "proper" contest without a ginga?

(Wonders if "faded" gingas would qualify)

If you want a picture of my ginga facial hair, you need to make it worth my while

The hubby decided this morning that he's going for the unshaven thing, so I might too!

Don't know if I can compare to your guys efforts but I won't wax my legs or shave my armpits and see how long they get!(Ewwwwwwwwwww), don't think it'll last long though, I'll be itchy by next week and have to get rid of it.

Nobody including me likes porcupine legs and bushy pits.
