Aloha,
A nice lady asked me a question on why guys (I) am attached and opinionated about my facial hair and what my thoughts are about requests along the line of "you know you would look so much better without the beard."
So here is a copy of my spin on my facial hair:
Sorry I haven't gotten back to you on your facial hair question. I may even turn these comments into a blog so here goes.
Ladies, do you like your men to tell you how to wear your hair?
Do you want a guy whom you just met to say, you know you would be much more attractive (what I want) if you would cut your hair or grow it or curl it or die it or better yet shave your head!
I would seriously like to know how many of you would go, ah ok, I will shave my head for you because you must know what it right for me, after all we just met. I am sure if you wanted your head shaved, you would wear it shaved.
Just to show you what a sport I am I will give you ladies an out. Let's say you meet a man and he is clean shaven, then after 6 months or 6 years he decides to become ZZ Top. I think you are entitled to your opinion, but just like I said earlier, you had better be open to his opinion on your fur too.
OK, I am going to blog this just for fun.
I hope that gives you another angle on the hair thing.
Aloha, Kenny

Um... not sure about shaving my head, but would be open to suggestions on a color or style… I did cut my hair really short once, because my b/f seemed to like it short…
I prefer a man to be clean shaven…. Because it feels good on my face when we kiss.. And it doesn’t give me a rub burn… like with and unshaven face… I would make a suggestion, but would never demand he do so….I guess it would depend on how much he liked kissing me… and if he cared about irritating my skin or not…

I agree with you on this one, that's like all the e-mails us ladies get that say "You'd look so hot if you lost some weight." First of all we've never met in real life so how would you know what we look like? And secondly, who asked you???

i'm the type of person who accepts others at face value(pardon the pun)
your body is your own. what i do to my hair is my own business. i grew it out for someone i cared greatly about, and he goes weird and decided...well i won't go into that.
i do think a nice beard is sexy...nothing better to be snuggled by...
first you have to live up to yourself...i mean if someone said "go jump off a bridge, or i won't love, would you?" i wouldn't...cause they'd be trying too controlling and manipulative..and that's not good for a relationship....

No I would not tell a guy this.. Its stupid.. I like a man the way he is.. Smile.. If someone is not attracted to you the way you are then they are not really attracted to you but how they think they can control and change you.. Eff that.. I am me you are you take it or leave... Smile..

People should accept you as you are. Otherwise they are control freak imo. The RIGHT woman will think you are gorgeous inside AND out like my boyfriend does with me. That's how it is when it's real.

Wow Kenny,
You give a gal lots to think about. I can't picture myself "telling" a new guy I have just met, "You know you would look so much better". My first thought is, how would I know?..(.Unless, of course, there were pics available to me with and without it.) I still would not phrase it that way, even at a later time.
I would not be happy about a man whom I have JUST met, telling me to change anything. However, if the attraction was there and we had agreed to explore a relationship, I would welcome his thoughts about my hair, my clothes, colors, and anything else he wanted to discuss with me, because he CARED. I would have an interest in his ideas and feelings. However, I would not compromise myself, JUST to please anyone.
At my age, I'm not shaving my hair for ANYONE, what if it never grew back?
Actually, I see that facial hair often enhances a man's appearance. But, in the past, beards have irritated my sensitive skin. If I was certain that I wanted him to be touching my skin, I would simply ask him if he would ever CONSIDER shaving it off so that should we get to that stage, I wouldn't have to claim that I am "allergic" to him. I'm willing to try, but I wouldn't want it to be a dealbreaker.
I have learned the importance of being open to a man whom I'm considering for a relationship. Two people, not open for exploring possible change, are probably a dealbreaker to start with.
And, now that I have explained my thoughts to you, I ask you.....in the scenario above, how would you react to my dilemma? and my method of solving it?
Aloha, my friend...I hope you're enjoying those glorious days in Hawaii...I miss it soooooo.
