| My $0.02 on the chinstrap stubble beard epidemic that's sweeping New York. Meaning NO OFFENSE here so if you don't like what I'm saying, you don't have to rip me to shreds. Just stop watching. From my experience, most guys (myself included) were never taught the ins and outs of dealing with facial hair (aside from the near-unanimous insistence from females that we adhere to the boyish, androgynous paradigm by keeping our faces smooth and shaved like poodles). The "maintained stubble" look is really big in New York right now and most guys are, as the meme goes, "doing it wrong" because they've never had anyone tell them where to put their neckline. **The standard place for a beard neckline is where the jaw ends and the neck begins.** So instead of shaving anything under your jaw, you really only need to shave the hair on your neck. Doing any more than that and you're giving yourself a chinstrap. And most guys can't pull that off. |
