I’ve had facial hair for close to 2 decades. Sometimes it’s a goatee, sometimes it’s a
full beard, but it’s been a long time since my chin has seen the light of
day. Well, now I’ve found a great reason
to show off my chin again!!!
November is Movember!
It’s the month where we draw attention to Men’s health issues.
In the past, it’s focused on testicular cancer. But now the Movember Foundation is also
addressing prostate cancer and mental health / suicide prevention.
All of these causes deserve our attention and our
funds. Since I’m fully bearded, growing
a moustache is a little anticlimactic.
Then it hit me….
WHY NOT DO A REVERSE MOVEMBER????
What this means is that as I reach certain fundraising
goals, I will shave my facial hair into new and unique styles until it’s all
gone. You and you alone will determine
how many follicles are trimmed and how cold my face will be during the
holidays. To donate, click on
this link
and donate ANY amount you’d like. Be it
$5 to $1000, every little bit helps the cause.
You can monitor my progress at
my personal Movember link here to see
where we are and an updated photo of the hairstyle.
So….
What are the goals and what style will I sport as we reach
each goal?
$400 – The Union General - The center of the chin is shaved
and the hair beneath is removed. So the
lush sideburns grow down and merge with an extended moustache
$600 – The Old School Biker - Two clear-cut ranges are
created, separating the mutton chops from the horseshoe moustache
$800 – The Wild West Sheriff – The classic bushy Western
moustache. Shaggy, slightly shorter than
the Horseshoe, think Sam Elliott in the Big Lebowski, Tombstone and… well almost
anything Sam Elliott has been in over the past 25 years
$1,000 – The Ron Swanson / Magnum P.I. - The classic substantial stache, reined in by
the cheekbones
$1,200 – The Snidley Whiplash – A slightly thinner
moustache, but curled up at the end with a sneer
$1,500 – The Vincent Price / John Waters – I will whittle
down the facial hair to a pencil-thin wisp of a stache. Dear GOD, don’t leave me here long
$1750 – The New Born Baby / Jason Bateman - We’ll remove all facial hair for the first
time in 20 years! I’ll be smooth and clean-shaven like Jason Bateman. I kind of look like Jason Bateman, with an
extra 60-70 pounds.
$2,500 – The Mohawk – If we reach the $1750 goal, why stop
there!!! Since there will be no more
facial hair, we’ll move north and we’ll remove some locks on the sides. We’ll leave a mohawk in place and if we have
an impressive donor, I may allow you to choose a color.
$3,500 – The Lex Luthor – If you all thoroughly impress me and we reach
this goal, I’m going cueball bald. That
way the beard and hair can be the same length as they grow out again.
So force me to shave every hair off my head by donating whatever you can at the link below. Thanks so much for any support you can give!
