    Clean shaven mostly. If the man has great eyes and skin tone then a little stubble is sexy

    DH clean shaven...

    on the other hand, I can't imagine either my dad or my brother without a beard....

    I like not shaving for 4 or 5 days.

    Also have an electric razor that gives you stubble.

    I don't like shaving. I do it twice a week. Wednesdays and Sunday's.

    NOT! I like any type of facial hair (on a man :wink: )

    I like both ends... Either soft skin from a close shave or a manly beard. Only a few guys can REALLY pull off the stubble

    I prefer a little bit of scruff but it doesn't suit me much (also because I'm terrible at maintaining facial hair. IDK how people do it!)

    maybe you'd be better off growing it completely, if you don't want it to get long you can get a beard trimmer and keep it as a neat, short beard. If you need to look professional, then keeping it tidy is key.

    Something like these:

    I wish I had a razor that did stubble. Unfortunately not.. So it goes clean shaven to stubble to scruffy, and back again haha.

    I stopped shaving about 14 years ago, i trim my beard about once a month. Some family and colleagues may protest early on when you stop shaving, but after a while they get used to it and won't complain. Experiment and go a few months without shaving, keep the beard trimmed and see how it goes.

    I like a little facial hair. Kinda scruffy but not too scruffy. Neatly trimmed.

    I shave MAYBE once a month. Not a fan of razor burn.
  • Being clean shaven i get more attention from younger ladies, whereas having some stubble/heard i get more attention from older ladies, so i just stick with stubble now staying in between is just about right!

    I personally LOVE a full beard on a man.
    It's perfection. :)
  • They totally do make razors for stubble. Check out this article, halfway down it talks about stubble razors. :Dhttp://www.fashionbeans.com/2013/mens-grooming-maintaining-stubble/

    Don't shave. Beards make you guys look so much more handsome and hot.

    If you have to shave from time to time, I looooove the stubble.

    Clean shaven, forever and for always. A little stubble at the end of the day is okay, but actually growing a beard? No go.

    I try to shave once a week. If I am going to go longer than that I will at least try to do a quick shave on my neck and cheek bones.
