For those of us with facial hair...

Apparently my style of facial hair is called a Balbo, and apparently the CDC thinks it's a grey area if I can effectively wear the mask or not.... I just got to be careful my chin hair doesn't cross the seal.

Actually what I've got is like the mustache of the Balbo, but my goatee is closer to what's depicted in the Van Dyke.

So I guess that means the mask is a no-go for me.

That's the other reason I posted this - the list of names, like "circle beard", which is what I have, but the beard is pointier like the "van dyke".

I think you're going to have to explain to most of us what that is.

It's a thing called a 'Finishing Touch Flawless Shaver' . Basically an electric razer that's shaped like a lipstick for the ladies. :D It was the first thing that came to mind when I read this thread.

Is that meant only for "emergencies" like you look in the mirror and see a random hair and pull out the fake lipstick and shave it off? Because I thought the whole point of waxing and creams and whatever else is so you don't end up having to shave your face every day like we (some of us) do.

Actually that doesn't look like a lipstick at all, it looks more like an acne care solution.

Oh wait, no I see it, it's just a weird photo angle.

I have no frickin' clue. :D I just see those ads on cable way too often and hanging out at like drug stores, WalMart and Bed Bath & Beyond.

I'm going to go with shaving emergency though and probably for travel purposes because otherwise why bother to pretend it's just another lipstick? If you need to whip out the heavy artillery for facial fuzz, chances are you've already given someone stubble burn and there's no point in hiding it. :D
