The beard thread.

[Bluetick21]

My Dad's cousin was married to a woman who felt the same way. She was a dark haired beauty! And had dark leg and underarm hair too!! She always said " God put it there, I'm not shaving it"! They had seven kids so I guess it was fine with Dad's cousin!! She had some facial hair too so I am staying on topic!!

I’ll admit that caught me off guard Pearl ! Haha

 

[Supervisor42]

This is a fun and interesting thread!! Hubby is always clean shaven and I like it!!

He is probably like me.
I cannot contribute to this thread because I Must Shave.
Edit: Oh look, I even found the emoji for that :

So how about it guys (Maybe a gal or two? 0_0) how do you cultivate your face-turf? Do you trim it nice and proper or just go natural?

au naturale, my wife said I need a trim. Whatdy'all think? LOL It's only 8 inches long

 

[Curmudgeon]

One of my CNAs ( ) at the rehab facility couldn't keep her fingers out of it, she braided it when I first got there , lol.

 

[Pearl]

Listen to Martha!!

I kinda have a strange feeling I want to crawl up in your lap and tell you secrets if you promise to bring me stuff
I’m just not right

I have had a mustache for over 50 years, but the beard comes and goes. I will grow one occasionally, but eventually it gets itchy, and I shave it off. I have had a goatee on and off for the past 10 years, but my wife says I look better without it. Another side benefit to retirement. I shave once or twice a week.

I'm like Morgan 101. I'll grow a beard or goatee once a month, then shave it off, just to watch people look at me trying to figure out what is different with me. I love goatees, but it seems whenever I have juicy, buttery corn on the cob, it drips down and stinks to high heaven.

 

[Bacpacker]

Cur mine is about half that long. I'm keeping it there or slightly shorter. Otherwise it is like a fridge, stays full of food. LOL. I used to keep it down to a #3 or 4 blade, still is on the sides. Just to goatee is long

 

[Spikedriver]

My beard gets really uneven if it gets much over the length of a #4 trim. I don't have a thick beard anyway, but since it started going gray the gray patches seem to grow faster than what is still dark. It gets pretty rough looking within a week. That's OK, it's long enough for me at that length...

While running my own heating business, I would occasionally get some wife apologizing for their home being less than immaculate. My response was always, "Don't let the beard fool you.....I ain't your mother."

Let it grow. A few Christmas' ago my daughter bought my son little Christmas ornaments to put in his. Little Christmas balls with alligator clips. Nice touch. It was about the same length as yours. Maybe a little longer.

Maybe some battery operated lights?!

 

[Bacpacker]

I teased my mom and told her the wife was gonna braid mine and decorate with Viking ornaments.

She wasn't amused. Or course she's not a fan on my long hair either

 

[UrbanHunter]

No Beard here, I grow something akin to a wire brush, it will totally shred a shirt collar. The wife says that it's worse than porcupine quills!

What's wrong wit dat lol.

Arianna, one of my CNAs at rehab braided mine after a shower. I had no problem with that

 

[Mountain trapper]

When my kids were little I always had a beard. Then one day I shaved before I came home from work, I was gone for a couple months, and when the kids saw me they started crying. They couldn't figure out who this stranger was slobbering all over their mother, now my ex wife.
Since I retired I wear a goatee or keep it all shaved with a 1/4" guard.

Eeewwwww……my hubby is always clean shaven and I prefer it that way. His son has a beard almost down to his navel.

Let it grow. A few Christmas' ago my daughter bought my son little Christmas ornaments to put in his. Little Christmas balls with alligator clips. Nice touch. It was about the same length as yours. Maybe a little longer.

I think that would be interesting to see.

Oh it hasn't happened. Never got the pirate beads.
More just messing with my mom

 

[joel]

Had a mustache for 30 years & a beard for about five.
I got old & every hair turn red or brown or white, it was a mess.
If it every goes pure white I may grow it again, but not now.
I shave every day if I go out, sometimes every other day if I stay in.

 

[Curmudgeon]

Get the beads and braids and show up at her house one day, lol

She might not let me in if I did

 

[Caribou]

My sister and my father's second wife put my beard up in about ten braids. I never did get a copy of that picture.
