But the company said that increasingly popular body-shaving by men had the potential to offset the loss of the facial-hair business.

How very metrosexual. Anyway, Rick Harrison of Pawn Stars says all one needs are simple two-sided single edged razors.

I did the beard thing when I was younger and ditched it. These days I keep things trimmed to a perpetual 3 day growth so I’m ready to shave on short notice. I hate electric razors.

The mustache I’ve had since I was 7 and I’m not getting rid of it.

Sorry, but any man that shaves their body should immediately turn in their man card.

The bigger they are, the harder they fall, unless they get into filling Obama’s pockets with skimming from their lobbyist driven bailout. Think about it, Biden called him “clean and articulate” All we need now are P&G commercials and Tide logos embroidered on his jackets.

P&G has long been the largest employer in Cincinnati. I left there in 1971 after graduating from high school and have never wanted to go back.

Never could stand a beard on myself.

Had a mustache when we lived in Minnesota until one cold, cold day I broke it when I wiped my nose.

Used to use shaving cream from a can until I got a shaving mug and brush one Christmas. Haven't had an ingrown hair since.

I love it when companies do not meet Wall Street expectations and come up with these excuses.

Who among us could get away with doing the same in our lives?

...but do they not manufacture an electric razor which can be set to allow a perpetual one or two day growth of beard, which for some reason seems to be all the rage among fashionable men...huge market potential...

If I didn't live in Florida where 8 months a year it's hot and humid...

I'd grow a beard simply because the cost of razors are ridiculous...

I like my beard... I let it grow in the winter to keep the wind and cold off my face and I keep it short and neat the rest of the year to look younger.

And it helps with my weak chin.

“... second-quarter earnings were marred by the growing preference of men for moustaches and beards....”

Obviously caused by Global Warming...which has caused the recent Global Cooling...which has increased men’s desire to grow beards in order to stay warm.

Given current trends, all they need do is create a razor that shaves only about one-third of the beard hair, leaving behind a nice five o’clock shadow that lasts all day.

The title is deceptive. They exceeded Wall Street expectations.

Rick Harrison and others are right. I bought a 1954 Gillette double edged razor, 100 Wilkinson blades (20 cents each), and a nice badger brush and mug set (Christmas present). It works great and costs very much less. Canned shave cream is evil. It’s too thick.

It is because the stinking pack of blades costs a small fortune.

My version of the famous Eric Dolphy picture:

Yes, the beard is real. Circa 1998 or so.

I have had a goatee for years, but I shave the rest of my face. I can’t stand the unshaven stubble look. I would not grow a full beard again because it would be too gray.
