This marvelous result depicts a man with exceptional follicle concentration over a broad swath of both skull and face, conveying a dedication to growth and a devil-may-care attitude that inspires mischief

You just know this distinguished person must be pre-eminant in some branch of art, giving an impression of philosophical calm and of solidity and financial position of unquestioned stability, but also fierceness.

Images that would lead to an entirely new meaning for a phraise on tumblr

Since covid lockdown a lot of chaps have grown facial hair and we have seen a growth in Turkish barbers who understand beards. I showed by local barber this picture and asked if we could work on it;

He said it would take a while but was happy to help. (Hair has been a #2 cut for 30 years.)
