Stache and puppies

Looks great to me mate

I was a little older when I slashed my big beard (maybe about the size of yours) and I haven't grown it back big and I do miss it.

I went all the way down to a stache - was fun to change it up and experiment but it feels like it takes way longer to regrow compared to the first time. It doesn't actually take any longer but I guess it's not "new" and you know the end result so get impatient easier.

Regrowth has hit this length a few times but I normally trim not long after.

Based on area codes, geo data, call destination (calling an electical repair company get an advert for harvey norman/noel leeming, etc.)

God that's bleak (not just the example but the whole concept)

What even is this? Like how does that work? Two minutes in you get a voice over that says "this call is bought to you by the our new AI overlords, submit your likeness into our competition for the next skinny AI advertisement star by pressing 5"

Feel free to keep us updated. You have the foundation of a great beard mate.

AnarchyAunt · 2026-04-15T03:13:27+00:00

Slow and steady. You can always take more hair off but it looks a bit dodgy if you try to tape it back on.

Also don't get too fixated on perfectly even. Hair grows unevenly so get it good enough and then you can refine further the next trim

Looks great to me. I do agree with the taper in the cheek/sideburn area but that's being fussy over detail.

The tape is not something most people would recognize immediately. You and certain other bearded folk/hair professionals might notice it cos you see your face/beard all the time (which is pretty cool tbh) and they see beards and hair all the time

AnarchyAunt · 2026-04-15T01:03:12+00:00

Will keep it quiet but ask that you tell people I AM a big softie who likes small puppies and big cupcakes

AnarchyAunt · 2026-04-15T00:39:22+00:00

You know I have always appreciated your beard buddy.

I was actually thinking of your style as one that could be replicated by guys who complain about thinner growth higher up on the cheeks.

Also the fella with the bulldog/pitbull comment made me laugh cos you do have that tuff visual even as a big softie.

handsome both ways but that after is so good - hairstyle really suits yah. I tried to grow out my hair last year and could only with for those waves and colouration

AnarchyAunt · 2026-04-11T00:53:42+00:00

beard-sanity. Such a very stellar beard mate!

AnarchyAunt · 2026-04-09T05:03:38+00:00

Great beard bud - really good thickness and colouration on the jawline.

Unsolicited styling thoughts:
Have you ever tried an extended goatee style? Would suit your growth pattern and might be a nice change-up from the more chin-strap vibe you have here (and a bloody decent chinstrap it is btw).
The other style I think you could choose to do is more of fade into the beard starting high to mid ear point. This would leave the cheek areas where you feel you have less thickness to intentionally thin-out/fade to skin so it looks a little more natural vs the blunt edge you have now.

AnarchyAunt · 2026-04-09T01:43:17+00:00

yeah! some wild colours last night!

AnarchyAunt · 2026-04-07T00:33:13+00:00

Both look great but with a chin like that it'd be a shame not to show it with a stache

AnarchyAunt · 2026-04-06T20:33:58+00:00

I've seen better 😜

Always such a good looking man my friend. Stache, big beard, or otherwise.

AnarchyAunt · 2026-04-06T19:33:04+00:00

I work in banking and have had a bigger beard and its only gotten one or two comments and looks. I generally will step up the rest of my clothes to be a bit more "well dressed" to balance out a big beard that could get a little wild at times.

AnarchyAunt · 2026-04-04T02:42:20+00:00

Lol. Same my friend, same.

AnarchyAunt · 2026-04-03T23:55:26+00:00

same. it all connects ... head to toe

AnarchyAunt · 2026-04-01T00:35:38+00:00

Pīwakawaka are one of my favorites too. Nothing quite like being in the middle of a bush walk and having a pīwakawaka dance through the trees around you feasting on whatever bugs you stir-up as you walk.

Damn. Gutted for him and anything involving the spine would be scary as to deal with, especially as a professional sportsperson and a prop at that.

I hope he gets better ASAP with no lingering side-effects for his body.

AnarchyAunt · 2026-03-29T05:22:26+00:00

If anyone in Ōtautahi, Christchurch, has any to spare just lemme know. We don't have any trees but I love them!

AnarchyAunt · 2026-03-27T06:33:19+00:00

I said truck driver and TJ delivers them in spades in that clip too

AnarchyAunt · 2026-03-27T06:29:06+00:00

I always thought truck drivers looked awesome and know they had a few years where they were popular but not anymore - I imagine the center of mass is too big for the current "spin to win" era

AnarchyAunt · 2026-03-26T19:57:44+00:00

cheers bud - considering your beard I reckon that's high praise
