    Beard growers unite!

    Lol hi everyone...just wanted to see if there are any fellow beard growers out there. I've been growing for about 13 months now, it has been quite a journey. I never thought it would be that much of an ordeal, but over the past year have ran across things I never thought about until
    I decided to stop shaving. Mostly positive, but also surprisingly negative. I never thought people's reactions or notions of beards were that strong until
    I few one, every day either hear negative thoughts (from people that don't even know me) and sometimes positive (which surprises me). Not growing out of a need for attention (I hate attention) just growing for the experience and to see how long I can go, and it's been fun. Going to try for 5 years or more, passed the first hurdle of my yeard, see how it goes.

    Anyway any other beard growers out there?

    Ah I know what you mean. The itching usually goes away after the first month from my experience, once you get past that the most annoying things are shedding ( hair everywhere ) and eating/drinking, have to make some
    adjustments when eating and drinking as the hair gets in the way lol

    Same here. I had some EPIC chops that went down to my shoulders before I enlisted. But once I get out its on the top of my to do list.

    Epic beard by the way bro!

    Did my basic at Fort Benning in 1992 and was stationed at Ft Campbell, was an interesting experience. If I was 20 years younger I would join tomorrow damn I miss it

    Sorry, I'll throw in my .02, I much prefer clean cut. Mustache and goatee ok, so long as its kept trimmed, and short hair. But that's just me.
