Hmmm, whats a Van Dyke?

 

OMG.....NEALE

Shame on you

Van Dyke is like a moustache and a goatee

 

Sorry Bro, I hadn't heard that term before...LOL

 

i just know specifically because of that Barber book. There are like 20 pictures of different cuts and facial hair

 

Moustache + goatee. I checked to be sure and it seems there are actually many different interpretations of what a Van Dyke (or Van Dyck) is. Basically, I’d try something like that:



The most important thing for me is that the moustache DOES NOT join the goatee.

 

I like Depp's Van Dyke look better than the Edge's...The Edge's looks like a normal goatee to me...

 

Exactly, and I don't want that.

 

I like mine and Lovie reeeeeeelly likes it

The VanDyke serves me well:
1. Allows me not to shave around the sensitive areas around my mouth and
2. Hides my double chin..............................which is nice
