To tell DH I hate his new look?

Name changed for this because I feel like a bitch (and also in case anyone recognised the description!)

DH has recently decided to sort of grow his hair out and grow a long straggly beard. He's fair so his beard is red. I've attached a Google image to illustrate the sort of look he's going for although he does not look like this... he's the 'nailed it' versionHmm

I hate it. I don't find him attractive at the moment and now go out of my way to avoid sex because it actually turns me off. I am embarrassed to be seen out with him- as is DD1 who is 15. For the first time in 17 years I have started looking at other men and fancying them (I wouldn't cheat).

WIBU to tell him how much I hate it? I love him to pieces and if it were a disfigurement he had no control over I would feel differently but he's choosing to look like this. I have told him I think it looks silly before- as have his mates - but he doesn't seem to care...

FWIW he - like most men- would be mortified if I rocked up at a black tie event with hairy legs/pits, sharpie eyebrows and messy hair

Sounds like some of our daughters friends from school, you missed out the purple/black lipstick and other wierd makeup.

Guy in the photo you posted looks well hot! Drag your DH along to the barbers with that photo and say make this happen! Then go the tattoo shop and on a bit of a clothing haul... Job done :D

See my husband and I have the sort of relationship where I would just be able to say "you look ridiculous, sort it out" and that would be that.
