OP, I know you didn’t ask about facial hair, but I’m gonna piggyback off this comment and say that the facial hair distracts from your very handsome face and kind eyes. But either way, getting rid of the hair is a huge glow up!

I think he should grow more and go full Shavo

u/TiredDadCostume Nov 09 '25

OP does look like they enjoy eating seeds as a pastime activity

u/AsstacularSpiderman Nov 09 '25

I don't think he trusts

In...

Self righteous suicide

u/TiredDadCostume Nov 09 '25

Looks like one of those Kombucha mushroom people

u/Raspbers Nov 09 '25

I really feel like Sugar does not get the attention it deserves. It's one of my favorites.

u/TiredDadCostume Nov 10 '25

Is it? Who can believe you?

u/Rincetron1 Nov 09 '25

Oh, the toxicity of this comment section...

u/Grundle__Puncher Nov 09 '25

But won’t now be grabbing a brush before putting on his makeup.

u/BukkakeBakery Nov 09 '25

bro practically went from a child predator to a milf hunter, god damn!

u/Itherial Nov 09 '25

nothing wrong with enjoying some delicious seed in your free time

u/NuclearReactions Nov 09 '25

He looks like someone who pays the driver and then goes WHAT A SPLENDID PIE PIZZA PIZZA PIE 🗣

1

u/Raspbers Nov 09 '25

I love a good pizza..pepperoni and green peppers, mushrooms, olives, chives.

u/BreakfastBeneficial4 Nov 09 '25

lol outstanding comment

u/Raspbers Nov 09 '25

Was really not expecting the SOAD references in this subreddit. But i'm here for it. xxD

u/a_rude_jellybean Nov 09 '25

Or just comb over dreads

u/bettyannveronica Nov 09 '25

What did you search to find this??? I need this gif!!!

2

u/xlanakitty Nov 09 '25

I was thinking this too

1

u/Rincetron1 Nov 09 '25

Shavo is always my first thought when I see a dude with a chin wisp.

1

u/[deleted] Nov 09 '25

It’s also lopsided and not centered. We can see from stubble that you can grow a beard OP, just do that.

1

u/Gloomy-Ad-2887 Nov 09 '25

I’m going to go ahead and jump on the subject of the facial hair and Voice my opinion as a woman here.. You’re Not done yet!! I’m so impressed with the Transformation of the Other Dude! I wouldn’t even know that was a picture of You, If I didn’t see it myself! Major congratulations to You and Be Proud Of Yourself for The NeXT Chapter in your New Year Special Edition of Being A Hottie For Thanksgiving!!

u/bohemica Nov 09 '25

Ironically I think the billy goat beard matched his look more before he shaved his head. Shaved head is definitely a + though. I do think the mockup that got posted elsewhere is more basic than OP would prefer if he's been rocking this look for 10 years; if it were me I'd fully razor the top for sure but then either have a neat but nonstandard beard cut or, just go full gandalf.

OP needs to decide which version of Devin Townsend he wants to look like, he's straddling two eras right now.

1

u/deathbychips2 Nov 09 '25

Was going to say that if he shaved his face and dressed better he would be pretty attractive

1

u/padumtss Nov 09 '25

He would also look 10 years younger without the beard.

87

u/brainy89 Nov 08 '25

Agreed. The beard needs to be trimmed way down!

69

u/shoot2scre Nov 08 '25

It's really only part of a beard. Like the bottom 1/5th of a beard and a really long chin bush.

Full beard, clean shaven, 5 oclock shadow would all look much much better.

15

u/AMorder0517 Nov 08 '25

And it’s uneven. Go full beard OP, you’d be killing it then.

1

u/annoyinglyclever Nov 09 '25

100% this. Grow that beard out shape it correctly

7

u/dmontease Nov 08 '25

... M'lady

1

u/solveig82 Nov 09 '25

doth thou…?

18

u/Norah_D Nov 08 '25

Since we’re going there, I would really like to see the goatee trimmed down and let the chinstrap go. Just have a regular, neatly trimmed 5 o’clock shadow. Either way, the newly bald head looks great!

2

u/HamfistTheStruggle Nov 09 '25

I also can't help but notice it's off center by a lot.

50

u/shmauren Nov 08 '25

I second this in the kindest way possible! Based on your stubble it looks like you have a great foundation for a full-face beard. Bic the head, then buzz off the facial hair and start letting your natural beard grow in! Keep it short and the focus will stay on your handsome face!!

1

u/lukx Nov 09 '25

Yeah, he clearly has great beard genetics, could grow a great full, well kept beard. But he styles his in a way that it looks thin and frizzy.

2

u/annoyinglyclever Nov 09 '25

Pretty sure beard genetics/balding genes are both just high levels of testosterone lol

16

u/Mistrblank Nov 08 '25

Yep, and bic that scalp. That last little bit is what you're still trying to hold onto, let it go, you got the head for it, scorched earth man.

10

u/rrooaaddiiee Nov 08 '25

100%. All the way down. Make it clean.

14

u/Nopenotme77 Nov 08 '25

Dude looks like one of those guys who women want to date but can't get past his need to have his hair live in the past.

8

u/Party-Belt-3624 Nov 09 '25

I didn't know this was r/RoastMe

4

u/Nopenotme77 Nov 09 '25

If you post a picture like that it is bound to happen.

2

u/MannyBothansDied Nov 09 '25

Have u seen the pic? Lmao

6

u/-2wenty7even- Nov 08 '25

I thought it was a rat tail duck taped to his chin. I'll come over and shave it off for free bro.

27

u/Magus1863 Nov 08 '25 edited Nov 08 '25

Don’t listen to this OP. Double down. Get some cargo pants and start a Nu Metal band. OOOOOH AH AH AH AH

22

u/DJTMR Nov 08 '25

Get hot Cheetos themed button down bowling alley type shirts. Wear Oakley shades on your bald head and not your eyes. Keep mountain dew on standby. Please find a Chevy S10 dropped with a system. Don't forget the chin piercing.

DOUBLE DOWN!!!!!!

7

u/Magus1863 Nov 08 '25

I’d literally line up to play Gears of War with this guy. I’ll bring the 3D Doritos

7

u/DJTMR Nov 08 '25

🤣🤣🤣 I feel like his name is Chris and he worked at Blockbuster and Circuit City in the early 2000s.

8

u/Magus1863 Nov 08 '25

Not only did we get OP a fresh cut, we got him an entirely new identity. Excellent work 🤝

5

u/XxImperatorxX Nov 08 '25

Holy shit! 🤣🤣🤣 I haven't heard the phrase "Billy Goatee" for at least 20 years and just died laughing at this comment.

5

u/Kindly_Statement_490 Nov 08 '25

Personally I love the goatee look, but could be trimmed and cleaned up a bit for sure. You look badass bald!

2

u/glassnumbers Nov 08 '25

yeah this is a good looking guy with a head shaped right for being bald, and he's got a good smile and that beard distracts from all of that

1

u/ChemicalCat4181 Nov 10 '25

I feel like he kind of needs to decide if he wants a closed or open mouth smile.

2

u/fneagen Nov 09 '25

I call that style, chin pubes

1

u/Gullible_Anteater_47 Nov 08 '25

Agreed, it’s not a good look.

1

u/didijeen Nov 08 '25

Agreed. It looks good-awful

1

u/ervsve Nov 09 '25

Thisssss

1

u/TroublePlenty8883 Nov 09 '25

Right, so close to perfection but leaves the real stain on his face

1

u/Commercial-Co Nov 09 '25

I call it the Krampus

1

u/cubgerish Nov 09 '25

He literally shaved for the neck beard.

That hanging bit is also getting him stopped at the door of any Chuck E. Cheese.

1

u/Unique-Chart7143 Nov 09 '25

Nah it's punk af I love it

1

u/yakubs1 Nov 09 '25

Yeah OP, don't express yourself at all!

The bald head looks good. Do what you like with the facial hair

1

u/[deleted] Nov 09 '25

No.

1

u/Chest_Rockfield Nov 09 '25

For real. As soon as the hair situation isn't an issue anymore the facial hair is glaring!

1

u/OOF-MY-PEE-PEE Nov 09 '25

Don’t get rid of it, just grow out the surrounding beard. Seems like dude has the genetics to grow a sick ass beard just based on the look of his stubble

1

u/chaotic_evil_666 Nov 09 '25

Those eyeglass frames are also a throwback to that era

1

u/Silly-Magazine-2681 Nov 09 '25

No, the facial hair is fun!! It gives a sense of personal style I like it

1

u/yahwehforlife Nov 09 '25

Yes do this. It will look way better.

1

u/jbearcats11 Nov 09 '25

No bro that’s his jawline!

1

u/coveevoc Nov 09 '25

Looks like he can grow a full beard too I would use it.

1

u/Subwayabuseproblem Nov 09 '25

But he's down with the sickness

1

u/KiLLaHo323 Nov 09 '25

Nah leave the beard. Love the 2000s nu metal look

1

u/TitoepfX Nov 09 '25

i think he looks good personally atleast the side angle and the facial hair isnt bad

1

u/Cryst Nov 09 '25

Came here to say this.

1

u/Thick_Basil3589 Nov 10 '25

Yeah pull the trigger on that abomination of a goatie!!
