663 Entries for “sideburns”

  1. Sideburns are universal. They’ve existed since men have had hair–and probably some women! But the question is whether they’re in vogue or not as of this writing. In a clause … they’re not. But they are coming back, like so many other things.

  2. sideburns are awesome. My friend Julian has some sideburns, He calls them Muttonchops though. Y’know mutton chops actually sound pretty good right a bout now. Too bad i cant cook any. There’s no meat in the house at the moment. And no one would be wiling to take me out to get some, haha this machine is actually letting me finish my “last” sentence, too bad i will NEVER finish, I’m only using COMMAS!!! okay I’m bored already, Ill just put a period right about now.

  3. His sideburns were starting to grow in, and frankly it started to scare him. He was only twelve, why was he all of the sudden getting facial hair? Thats ridiculous, people might actually make fun of him! He had a reputation to keep up, being in sixth grade is some serious business.

  4. these old 70’s fashion tragedies are testament to the bad taste of some women and ugly hairiness of men. No way can this end well.

  5. Sideburns are pretty cool things. In their extreme form, they make me think Javert. But in less crazy styles they’re very sixties. I don’t understand how the word got formed since while the “side” part is understandable (sideburns being on the side of one’s head) I don’t really see what they have to do with burning. Odd. I wonder what language the word developed from.

  6. i think that Elvis has the best sideburns ever! side burns are ok on some people but i dont like them on most people.. im really tired and im around a lot of people right now eith sideburns! cause im with THE OLYMPIC VAULTERS BABY!

  7. The man sat with his sideburns drooping from the side of his face. He was withered and old but his hair brought out the best in him and showed how he was a special person; not another clone of a person, something special. You know someone is worth knowing if they take the time to be their won person. sideburns can make a person or brake a person. In this mans case, it made him.

  8. The man had thick sideburns. Mutton-chops really. He looked like a throw-back to a Jane Austen novel, like when Colin Firth played Mr. Darcy in the BBC series.

  9. He combed his hair, admiring his sideburns in the mirror. His father wanted him to shave them off for the family photo, but they were just too perfect. Shame his father didn’t appreciate good facial hair.

  10. hairy. nice chops man. who even has those anymore? maybe that creepy guy at the video store. if those are even still around that is……if you have curly hair will your sideburns be curly too? hmmm

  11. A cliche way to seem mature, distinguished, or even sexy. Sideburns are the more easily obtained facial hair for men, and possibly woman, though I often see more mustaches.

  12. My boyfriend has sideburns. There aren’t very many Asian guys with them. One of my brothers said that my boyfriend is one of the few Asian guys he knows with sideburns. I think that’s quite funny.

  13. They shave them like rhianna
    Or grow them like Elvis
    Mine grow into long whispy curls
    That bounce as I walk along
    I want them pressed up against
    A soft cheek and mine

  14. his elongated sideburns were scarred upon his ill stricken face. and sometimes that face would look down at me with sadness. “how can you love her, but not me?” he asked. But I had no answer for him, for he was just not the one for me. and still his sideburns carry on, living happily.

  15. My bottoms are belled, my hair is long. I smell. Oh the smell; Of hairspray sprayed in 1969. Groovy baby.

  16. I have never had sideburns in my life. What about those bald men with long sideburns? Unacceptable. Girls shouldn’t have sideburns, either. It makes them look hairy. And also, what would a girl have to do if she has hairy sideburns? Wax it or shave it or cut it? Ih ate hair. I wish I didn’t have any hair except for the hair on my head. Which reminds me, I need a hair cut.

  17. I kissed his face and pulled back. The scrap of my delicate skin against his sideburns is what I remember most. I remember pulling him closer and closer to me and those prickly hairs scraping my cheeks rosy. I wish I could go back to those moments. To that time with him… but like what his sideburns did to my cheeks, he left me red and raw. A broken shell of what I once was. Heart bleeding from his sideburned embrace. Fragile body, delicate skin, shredded at his mercy. I think thats what I remember most, from the time I fell in love.

  18. long like abraham lincolns
    black like my brothers
    scruffy like my carpet

  19. I like sideburns. I like facial hair on men. I myself, am a woman. A heterosexual woman. Who appreciates facial hair on a man. I like ruggedness and manliness.

  20. The man in front of me had long sideburns, which I managed to convince him to shave off before we married twelve years later. I loved him, warts and all, but I refused to have the last name of a man who looked like a bad Elvis impersonator.

  21. His sideburns, like no other. They cured every disease known to man. They were as golden as the sun’s rays, and just as painful when felt. They had always been thought of as weapons, and surely came in handy that day the zombie apocalypse started. It was June the fifth, that’s when the whole world went into a panic over the living dead attacking.

  22. sideburns are one thing I’ve never given thought to. Then again my hair is so difficult and confusing seeing as I have “black man” hair. I just shave my head and think little of it. But in general, I love mutton chops. If I could have any sideburn it would be mutton chops. With a big mustache.

  23. Reminds me of my Dad’s mid-life crises, oh gosh was that ever an experience. Also, have bikers ever tried new styles of facial hair? Whenever I think about bikers for some reason sideburns always come to mind, well, that and handle-bar mustaches.

  24. It was Saturday night and I was wearing my best dancing platforms and short, polka-dot dress. I danced my way to the dance floor, and there I saw him. He had a little fro, and brilliant sideburns which defined his jaw line magnificently. He looked over at me winked, then shuffled closer….

  25. sideburns are like the mutton chops of societal blissful standards. That doesn’t make sense but who cares. when I have sideburns I feel like cutting them off so I can look like a monk with a mop top haircut.. or the monk from fifth element’s apprentice. Sideburns can define you as a person.

  26. His sideburns were short and hard to notice, but in some obscure way they made him sexy as hell. Their manly nature contrasted well with this soft lips, Bambie eyes, and

  27. Being a female, sideburns are something I never gave much thought to… until I shaved my head. The idea of looking like a man terrified me… and then I realized sideburns were a part of my life. Not really, though. I don’t look like a man and sideburns aren’t as hard to keep trim as I thought they would be.

  28. Ambrose Burnside said to his men,
    “you missed 2 spots, so shave me again”
    however his men said to mr burnside,
    “youre one sexy captain so just let it ride”

  29. Although they’re not exactly what I would call attractive, the represent a time that makes me happy. I would like to see more older people with them, I guess to represent that time they lived. I like to see people who may be “stuck in the moment”, but in all reality I think they are just holding on to what is important to them.

  30. fur! sexy fur made for the side of your face! ;)

  31. Sideburns are not cool at all. They are for individuals hoping to be cool and failing miserably at it. Think of Jersey Shores boys, right? Intelligence is low. Ridiculously. They must be compensating for something! At least, that’s my take on things. Maybe they’re not but you’re not foolin’ me.

  33. Ugly ugly sideburns graced his head, i couldnt believe my highschool sweetheart has the UGLYEST CHOPPYEST hairyest, weirdest sideburns ever. however, when i got over the side of his face, and looked into his eyes, i knew that the sideburns didnt matter, and i still loved this man.

    I burst into tears, and ran into his arm. the side of my face rubbed against those gruesome ugly sideburns.

  34. Icky. sticky. summer sick sideburns. greasers. leather jackets. gimme a kiss. hey cindy, you wanna go to da prom wit me, or wut? how many times do i have to tell you, i don’t think we should be together!

  35. sideburns are really nasty and unattractive, named after some general in the civil war… all sideburns should be shaved off!!!! SHAVED OFF I REPEAT.

  36. one of those things that can make it, or break it. keep them nice and trim, please. this isn’t xmen, and you shouldn’t be walking around like wolverine. beards.

  37. He had such heavy sideburns that took away the true beauty of his magnificent face. Cut them please, I begged of him. Yet he just wouldn’t give in. I asked…..

  38. crawling on his face like cats they stare at me.
    wide-eyed and angry
    holding onto the milk that I wanted to sip from that glass i painted.
    now in it floats a hair.
    2 hairs.
    orange and long and scraggly
    like a mangy cat from next door.

  39. I went to Anime North today. Only the best anime con in Canada! (Canada for the win, people). Anyway. There were many costumes. And when there are many costumes present, there are also many glued on sideburns present. I laughed quite a lot at the facial hair. Cosplaying shall forever be one of the most awesome pastimes ever.

  40. Sideburns remind me of truck drivers. Maybe they let them grow because its eashave their entire faces. They also have a 60s look to it but may seem dirty if they are not well kept. They become a frame to the face, very similar to eyebrows. And look good only on certain types of faces, on others they just look weird.
    It funny that they are called sideburns, because they don’t really burn, or protect you from burning, or anything of sorts. I wonder why they are called that.
