Answer 1

Answer 2

A five o'clock shadow, which is what i think you mean, is when a man hasn't shaved all day and has some new facial hair growth - he has a 'shadow' round his chin/mouth. Its nothing to do with bags under the eyes unless its some other saying that I don't know about...

Answer 3

I think what you mean is the 5 oclock SHADOW which is when a man has not shaved since the morning and by 5 oclock he has a dark stubble under his chin which looks like a shadow!

Answer 4

after a man shaves, the hair grows back, this is called stubble, becuase the hairs are like little stumps?

anyway, its also called 5 o clock shadow

do an image search for 5 o'clock shadow, and you'll see what i mean.

Answer 5

A five o'clock shadow is when a mans beard starts showing through. If he had a shave in the morning his whiskers would start showing at around five in the afternoon.

Answer 6

5 o'clock shadow is the regrowth of a man's beard. If enough has grown by 5 o'clock to be a visible shadow, it is supposed to be a sign of virility.

Hence, as J says, "designer stubble" - it is supposed to be sexy, as opposed to just scratchy!!

Answer 7

ya ever watch the flinstones? Fred had one...it's the stubble a man grows during the day after he shaves.

Answer 8

Answer 9

It has more to do with beard stubble at the end of the day, when it is most noticed

Answer 10
