I have that same problem, only I have so much blanket-ass Indian in my ancestry that I can't grow a beard.

If this is a serious question, then go to the H&F forum and search for "starting strength".

- Get lots of sun
- Take up smoking
- Try the Amy Winehouse experience; lots of drugs, alcohol and sex, too little sleep, too little bathing.

The facial hair should increase and look more natural as you age, hair is the one thing that keeps on giving. Your voice stops getting deeper around 14, your pecker stops growing around 15, you stop getting taller around 18... but hair? It never stops! It just migrates from your head to your face, ears and back. Gorilla style.

You should enjoy looking young, and hope that it sticks with you later in life ;^)

I also get occasional zits, should I take care of them, or allow a few to stay? I have stuff that I can use but I'm afraid getting rid of all of them will just give me "baby face".

Should I join hockey? Maybe a black eye, some cuts and bruises will make me look rougher and older? I'm grasping at straws here.

The only good thing about looking young is if I screw something up at work people will give me more benefit of doubt thinking "he's just a student"

A broken nose can do wonders. Seriously.

Maybe you could start drinking Draino or something like that and hope it makes your hair fall out. Early baldness would probably add a few years to your perceived age.













(Disclaimer: If anyone actually does that, well, you deserve it.)

why waste your time on Draino, when meth can do it in 5 short years?

Copycat!

holy hell was I late!

funny though, after looking through a lot of those image links to find the one I needed, some were a bit sensational. once guy merely had his ass beaten before the mug shot. kind of silly, really.

Meth: You'll get your ass beaten!

They don't need to make those pics sensational. Meth really does that to you, and it's really nasty stuff.

why the hell do you want to look older? just enjoy the fresh face, cuz in 10 - 15 years, youre gonna be wishing you looked /felt 14 again.

Yeah, but I'm worried about now, if I take care of myself which I do, then I'll just keep looking my age which is what I want, that way people take me more seriously. Nothing worse then everyone thinking I'm like 10 years younger and thinking I'm a kid.

Guess the easiest thing is to just keep working out.
