New look - long hair and moustache!

High!
For many years, I day-dreamed about having long-hair (way down my back) and a moustache, whereeas during the last 12 years, I mostly went with a goatee or even a full beard.
Now I tried this "swamp gypsy" look for the first time - and my feelings are somewhat ambivalent. On one hand, it looks not as disproportional with my wide face as I feared - on the other hand, it feels, at least on this picture, somewhat brutish - like some dubious gangster dude, a fugitive criminal I really wouldn't like to encounter in a dark side street.
Could it be that shaving more accurately and (as I normally do) wearing glasses could alleviate this? And, for the time being, there is also an overweight problem - losing, let's say 30 lbs surely would make also my face look less chubby!
I'm really at odds with myself whether I now should try being a "swamp gypsy" (a self-coined word for long-haired moustached men) or instead simply grow back my previous beard... what do you think?

The glowing red eyes do not help.
I think NO facial hair would look better than just the mustache.
Perhaps a complete shave, and then grow the whole beard back if you do not like the baby face.
I agree...

Good Luck!

I'd say, either no facial hair, or a grown beard as well. I dunno -- I've only recently started growing my hair out at all, but that's just my opinion.

Personally I prefer a full beard or goatee. Mustaches are so Yanni.

Oh wow! I was not aware that Yanni owned the moustache look. The inference there is that once a celebrity has a certain look, they own it? I suppose goatees are "so Mark McGuire" and beards are "so Richard Karn"?
Drek!

Yes, I strongly dislike Yanni's showy and pretentious music (no, he's really no Vangelis!)... but the guy himself looks simply HOT! Too bad he's married to that Dynasty bitch...
