Red Dragons striker has shaved off his beardWorking on a different kind of facial hairAll being done in support of a good causeWHAT HAPPENED?

The 31-year-old frontman is no stranger to facial hair, but he can usually be seen sporting a bushy beard. Palmer has altered his appearance slightly in order to aid the charitable Movember cause – which seeks to raise awareness of men’s health issues.

Palmer is not particularly pleased with the progress he has made on his top lip so far, in what is a considerable image change for him, but time is still on his side when it comes to producing something slightly more flamboyant.

WHAT THEY SAID

The Red Dragons star has said when asked about his moustache-growing efforts: “How’s it going for me? Terribly. I look horrendous! But it’s worth it. It’s all for a great cause and trying to raise as much money. It’s not just me, there are six or seven other lads – players and staff – involved.”

Palmer, who starred alongside top scorer Paul Mullin last season as Wrexham secured a record-breaking promotion back to the Football League, has registered five goals through 21 appearances in all competitions this term – helping Phil Parkinson’s side up to second place in the League Two table as co-owners Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney are given plenty to get excited about.
