Beards DO make you look older. Lots of people have been surprised when they see me and find out that I'm only 22 (gonna be 23 in 13 days :D). A little bit of graying is okay though; makes you look more mature and while certainly not common at your age it isn't uncommon either. Just expect to start loosing hair earlier than expected XP

I'm half tempted to put up a photo of me with my beard untied, but would probably be mistaken for a terrorist if I do XP

I don't have a beard, but people seriously almost never get my age right. They either think I am older or younger.

Because they aren't used to judging the age of a white man. :p

I'm becoming more and more tempted to just shave my head for the summer to be honest, fortunately for me, I'm not getting 'monk hair', but still, the receeding hairline gets on my nerves sometimes....

Edit: My biggest fear is that I'd end up looking like the frontman for REM.

Every day at 13?  Sounds like you hit puberty hard and fast.  I'm not surprised you're already seeing grey hair.  :p


Yeah :( I have been 6'2" since I was 14. I hope hair loss does not come as early....
