This one's mostly for the girls... how many of you have sideburns? xD ... just kidding, that was a joke really... my real question is what do you think of guys with them? I just grew a pair over the holidays, no one has seen them yet, but I think they're pretty cool. They make me look a lot older.

It's funny that you post this, because today, my brother was just telling me that I need to shorten my sideburns. With that in mind, I'll be curious to see what the women who reply here will say.

i am a guy, and i think that sideburns look amazingly strange if not accompanied by, at the very least, all over facial stubble

My boyfriend has sideburns, as do several other guys I find attractive. But they would not look good on everyone.

LOL, sideburns can be great, as long as they're not too wild. And it helps to have the right kind of hair to go with it (thick or curly or a little longer, for instance). I'm thinking of a good example in Peter Hayes from BRMC... http://www.blackrebelmotorcycleclub.com ... ter_hayes/

If you like yours, keep them! Especially if they make you look older and you're confident about them - they'll make you stand out in a good way. :)

Sideburns rock my socks. Definitely sexy.

I'm more interested in what people think of mutton chops.

:lol:

Let's see how I'd look with 'em...

After:

I can tell people I'm a time traveller. :lol:

Or, actually, here we go:

That's supposed to be this: :afro:

(Yes, I'm insane, and yes, I have too much time on my hands.)

But seriously, should I have sideburns with my goatee, or not? A barber lady I went to told me I should.

I find sideburns humurous. I think they should be worn with a little irony.

Dude, sideburns + goatee = sex. Not before marriage though, of course ;)

Afro > sideburns. For example:

That's me w/ afro and a "contemplative" look. XD

I think my afro beats out sideburns.

Ahh, lol, thanks for the replies... me and a few friends had this stupid thing going in literature... Elizabeth Bennet only fell for Mr. Darcy in the end because of his mutton chops...

Image

Hence, they got the name "Darcy Chops"! ... Mine aren't quite as gnarly as that though. :lol:

Really big mutton-chops are my greatest aspiration!
