Fumanchus are in?

[Ken H]

I used to have a picture of myself from way back with a Fu Manchu. Embarassing.

Not a good look on any man.

My son has a full beard and very long hair. For Halloween he shaved off the beard and turned it into a long fu-man chu and dressed up as a redneck. (It didn’t take much!)

A week later he still had it. “Yeah - I kinda’ like it! I think I’ll keep it like this.” I can’t recall if I said anything or not - probably not. He’s 25 and a great kid, his preference of facial hair is not on my list of things to worry about.

He ended up growing his beard out again though - so that was was good!

They were out? :o)

Fumanchus are in?

When were they "out" ?

When I retired from the Army 35 years ago, I knew that I wanted to grow more facial hair than the Hitler moustache that the Army allowed. Initially, I grew a Fu Manchu ... my late-wife put a quick stop to that, telling me that it made me look mean and angry.

So I shaved it all off, except the moustache over my lip and instead grew a full Burnside ...

At least once every day since that time, I've received a compliment about "my look" ...
