I'm surprised, some of us actually look respectable.

Haha, just started growing mine out last month. Wife asked to see what I would look like with a full beard since I've had a goatee with stache now off and on for a few years.

So back to the business of growing it out nice and full again. I was only able to find one recent one my wife has posted on her facebook with my beard. I don't like doing photos of myself. Not the best picture, but you guys can get the general idea.

I have one because I like it better than shaving every couple of days, but I don't let it grow much. Have a trimmer and beat it down to 10mm every couple of weeks.

I will say my beard is a bit strange because I don't grow anything right under my bottom lip. Every one always asks me why I shave that spot when I have a full beard going on like now.

That's actually a style. You can also pull off a handlebar easily since you don't have to worry about constantly shaving there. I'm so fuckin hairy that if I let my hair grow too long, it will reach my chest hair. Beard turtleneck 4TW!

Started about September 1, 2013. Shaved once this year down to bare skin, kids got scared, wife told me to grow it back. I grow hair like crazy and have to trim up every week it seems or I get all bushy.

This is last winter after I found a wedding ring with a metal detector and returned it to its owner. I'd been out in the cold for about an hour.

Aw man, I wanted one of those jackets so bad but I felt like the "xPOSUR" was like "POSER" and then I thought people would run around saying NICE POSER JACKET! :D

I think I got it because it was on sale. /shrug.. its a couple years old, no one gives me shit about it. When not at work, I'm usually wearing my carhart and/or insulated flannel.
