The Beard Thread


spectre

Recommended Posts

I wonder if I ever will have a beard. Currently I barely have any facial hair. Been the same since I was 18, now I'm 24.

Gotta have them beard genes, meng

I've never really tried growing my facial hair out...pretty sure it would look retarded on me, half between peach fuzz and a wannabe beard. Might give it an embarrassing shot latter this year lol.

Actually, you might call yourself lucky for not being able to grow a beard. For some reason, people who have male pattern baldness can grow epic beards. So if you can't grow a beard, you probably don't have the baldness gene.

Keep calm and question nothing.

Might be... My father is almost 70 and haven't had any hair loss. He has a beard too but wasn't able to grow any until he was in his mid-thirties.

I thought my hair was migrating from my head to my face.

1. I can’t believe we even need to have this debate. I mean, just look at this guy.

4. But OK, let’s build our argument. Throughout history, beards have conferred prestige.

5. And gravitas.

6. For many of the careers that matter, beards are practically a prerequisite.

7. Plus, bearded men are more attractive. This has been proved by science.

That’s according to a study by the University Of New South Wales. The optimum level of face fuzz was found to be heavy stubble: ten days’ growth.

8. A decent beard can transform a pasty nerd into a rugged hunk.

11. A tie-wearing nobody into an operatic powerhouse.

13. There are practical benefits too. Growing a beard means you can say good-bye to one of mankind’s most tedious tasks.
enhanced-buzz-7162-1369147457-2.jpg
14. Other things you can do with a beard? Well, it gives you something to stroke while you’re thinking.

15. You can use it to accentuate your insults.

16. Intimidate your enemies.

17. And enchant women
18. You can grow it into the shape of a cage. Then drink tea through it.

That is all real beard hair. Filmed at the 1991 Beard and Moustache Growing Contest in Tacoma.

19. And if it’s big enough, you can sell advertising on it.

Kentucky-based ad agency Cornett-IMS allows men with beards to earn money by placing miniature “beardboards” in them.

Admittedly not all types of beard are equally desirable.

There are strict rules of etiquette that must be observed.
enhanced-buzz-14790-1369156526-0.jpg
It’s certainly possible to go too far.

And, OK, the hirsute look doesn’t work for absolutely everyone.
 
Plus, once you’ve grown one, it doesn’t always have quite the impact you’d imagined.
enhanced-buzz-9119-1369131948-0.jpg
20. But still. If you can grow a beard, you should. Pity those poor souls who can’t.
enhanced-buzz-2004-1369132006-3.jpg
(They can try and fake it, but they’re not fooling anyone.)
 

 
21. In conclusion, then. Beards, f**k yeah!
 

Keep calm and question nothing.

Now that summer and warm weather is here I took the beard as well as hair down super close. Don't even need a comb anymore lol.

I'm going to try to keep mine long for a while, we'll see with these 80+ degree days .

Your looking much thinner, you can tell you lost more weight.

\m/ YES! :angry:

 

Beard story from Saturday: My Mom and I went to a dealership to see about trading in a minivan for a truck so I can plow our driveways, transport the Bike, haul shit etc... Last winters handful of 10-15" snow storms sucked balls, anyway every dude working in the showroom had a beard in various stages. When I walked in they got shook and ALL stared at me. Their girly man beards were tucking tail and my beard could sense it. Honestly I look like a god damn bum right now. :lol:

 

So we get hooked up with a hand job salesperson and his third question to my Mom and I was about my beard followed with the obvious... everyone on the floor was growing one. “How long have you been growing your beard?” I paused and said “I’ll put it to you this way. The last time I shaved was May 19, 2012.” He couldn’t hang so he proceeded to be a salesman and offer us an insulting trade in value. His way of spiting my beard I suspect. <_<

 

 

 

 

I really dig Viking or Viking style braids so I'm thinking about one of these this winter. I have a hair appointment tomorrow so I might have my hairdresser trim it so I don't fuck it up. And if she doesn't cut all my damn hair off, typical woman she doesn't listen to what I want, I'm going to rock two back braids like Hiccup in How to Train Your Dragon 2. :lol: I'll have to take a pic when its all grown in...

All that energy spent getting upset and making a note dummy could wipe it herself. :lol:

 

So I got the trim and some little hair rubber bands. I can get it in like a 1/2 inch sprout. :D Work in progress...

 

Because if she wipes it up this time, then she will be wiping it up next time.  ;)  

 

Nice.  Still working toward the viking braid/sectioned thing?  My gotee is plenty long enough now.  I can fold it up and it goes up to the bridge of my nose, lol.  I put it in sections just to screw with my kids sometimes, lol.
