I know I used to be a rather unsightly man, and I feel that I've improved my image somewhat, but I can't trust my own judgement. So, please be objective in critiqueing how I look, don't try to flatter me, and please try not to let personal bias affect it negatively either.

If there's anything that's particularly good/bad as well, could you please point it out...

that said, pics: http://home.cogeco.ca/~jakemachina/JAKE/smiling.jpg

But does that smile always look so forced?

  • loose the earing.
  • if you must keep the goatee, have it neatly trimmed, and make sure the rest of your face is baby-ass smooth.
  • you see the little fuffs of hair on the insides of your eye brows? shave that.

    Thanks, the smile always looks forced for pictures... I grin when I'm really happy, otherwise it's a closed lipped smile... so if I grin for a picture, it always looks forced.

    I'll eliminate the tufts of hair when I get home, and I do keep my face smooth.

    I'll try trimming the goatee, but why lose the earring?

    Bite me.

    Don't take this as a critisism, but it makes you look like you're trying to be 'cool'. Might just be my opinion. I've never liked earings in the first place. last three girlfriends I had were pleased as punch I didn't care if they wore them or not.

    Personally, I think you look pretty good. Just trim the beard a bit; and push those eyebrows down. If your eyebrows won't budge, trim those just a little bit.

    Plucking if you have the time and can stand it.

    Shaving requires far too much maintenance and can really irritate the skin.

    Shaving (where did I get wax from shaving? ;D) for eyebrows is too much trouble for what it's worth, IMO... >_<

    Tweezing (not plucking! Argh! You pluck a chicken, you *tweeze* eyebrows! ;D.. eh, just a peeve of mine!) anyways -- tweezing works just as well, if not better - because you get the whole hair, you're not just chopping some of it off - and it's more controlled, if you ask me... Do it after you get out of the shower, since your skin is softest and stuff then... Just take your time, one at a time! Step back, take a look, then keep going, or stop.

    and just so I'm clear, I just grab the hair with the pliers, and pull until it pops out, then repeat for all unwanted hairs?

    Hold the skin taught around the area with your opposite hand that you are using to tweeze. Grasp the hair near to the skin as you can, pulling it out at the angle the hair grows.

    Do it fast.

    so looking at the eyebrow from the front, in the normal manner, I pluck between the two, and under them, but not anything on top? leave the top to grow as bushy as it pleases?

    Vobo ~ Meh. ;D

    But anyway --

    Yes, Burger - but you make it sound bad. ;D

    Let me try and get a picture of what I mean....

    But brows - especially male brows - are supposed to look natural and not all perfect and shapely and stuff. They add character to your face, so you don't want to change them too much -- just take out the stray stuff below and in between. And the hairs on top of your brow form your browline - you don't want to touch those. =/ Besides, they are shorter and without as much direction as the longer, staighter hairs below your browline, and if you pull them, they could grow in to disform your browline somewhat. :x

    add a little chubby, a lot of acne, remove the beard and piercing, let the hair grow out to about 2", and just kinda leave it shaggy...

    it would at least "balance" your face out. the way things are it kind of irritates me to look at (but i'm weird about stuff like that). i say lose the current one or get one on the other side to match. only piercing one ear is so 1990's. with the kind of crazy shit people get pierced nowadays, people are going to think you got one done and then chickened out on getting the other! (i kid.)

    btw, lookin' goooooood. them's some bushy brows but as long as there are two and not one, ain't nuttin' wrong wit dat. i give you an 8.75/10. (yes, the earring thing bugs me that much.)
