Title: facial hair before T
Post by: James42 on June 12, 2010, 11:50:32 AM
I'm just wondering some opinions on fake facial hair before T: is it worth applying to some? Does it enhance "passing" chances? Does anyone try it? Facial hair is probably what I'm most excited for when I get the chance to start T, so for now I actually like to experiment with applying it. Any input welcome.

Actually, I've applied a subtle "scruff" like on my lip and jawline using finely cut doll hair and spiritgum, with a light shadow under, and tested it to find that I passed all day

I have real facial hair pre t and no it doesn't help with passing. All that matters is my ->-bleeped-<-ing height or voice.  >:(

My voice is pretty deep already, and I've mastered making it deeper without sounding obvious lol so that does help, I can understand the voice thing being frustrating tho

Depends. If people like to grab your cheeks or touch your face in any way, or brush against your face...there is the chance of it rubbing off, or sweatign it off...I wore fake facial hair for performing and occasionally in public bu tI felt like everyone was staring, and knew.

I have been growing a lot less facial hair than I was in the colder months. It looks kinda patchy.

You mean it's not normal to naturally have facial hair? Oh...

Well you'd pass just as well without it.
