I've grown a beard and now I'm treated differently

I just have stubble that i sometimes leave for a week or two between clipping it back to no guard on hair clippers. I look weird af with a close shave :(. probably just down to seeing the stubble for so long.
 
I have the worst of all worlds... male pattern baldness, a really patchy salt and pepper beard when I try to grow one, but like a gorilla everywhere else on my body if I don't keep it in trim.

Life is unfair sometimes :D
 
Coming up to the 1st anniversary of mine, thought I might get rid of it in the summer but it stayed and the wife said it should stay too. It is kept at a constant and preened 10mm

I suggest everyone jumps on the bandwagon. 10 years ago I would have been a laughing stock for growing one, now nobody bats an eyelid. It's something every man should do once in his life, so now is the time to do it trouble free.

mine started off really patchy and gave up on the sides and shave every couple of days. I agree everyone should try and grow one if they want to and if its patchy then its patchy, who cares.

not perfect but i hardly ever mess with it, just let it grow and shave the sides.

Timescale is nothing, beard is everything!!

Also, that would be the worst superpower - beard man, the power to rapidly grow a beard before your eyes! :D

If we look at Dexter's Lab circa 1997 we are reminded by Action Hank that "It doesn't matter if you have the beard on the outside, all that matters is that you have it on the inside." Basically inside every man there is a strong bearded man waiting to come out.

Oh man. You know how some superheros have secondary powers, which aren't anywhere near as good as their main powers? Were I a superhero, I've always wanted mine to be the ability to grow as much hair as you want at any time, so you could basically just look different every minute if you wanted to.

I'd just end up with a gigantic beard most of the time, though.
 
I've had a goatee for the past 15 years (if not longer) and that suits me quite well :) having a full on beard would drive me potty due to the itching! Even thinking about it and I want to scratch .

It stops itching after a while, its only as it just starts growing when it becomes itchy. Reaches a certain (short) length and then its fine, try it ;)

I shave once every 2-3 weeks ish (why are razor blades so damn expensive) and the itching really drives me up the wall. I'm happy with my goatee though so that's fine by me :p

I shave every day (except weekends). The earliest I will be 'aloud' to grow a beard will be October 2029 :(

On a side note... Movember starts tomorrow :D

In work,

In play,

I'm deemed as a slave to Fashion :confused:

Beards have never been "In " and now they are and i'm suffering because mine is beautiful and thick and not weedy and thin? :mad:

I hate men that grow beards and are patchy...either join the game full on or disengage..

Don't get jealous of my beard people!

Beards were never "in"...unless you're a hipster too
 
Why do you think that? Beards have always been fashionable for different types of people. You've just put them in a category because lots of hipsters have beards.

You could probably call me a hipster by the look of me, though I don't look like on of these fancy pants above, but I've had a beard for years. I didn't grow it to fit in with any fashion.
