  • I'm growing a beard

    I'm 10 days in. SIRS told me yesterday that she thinks "It's going to look good--professorial."

    I still have a few weeks before I am sure of what possibilities I have, but at this stage it looks like I could grow about anything. I'll probably just do a short box beard, but I could also grow a ducktail and look like a socialist euro.

    My guess is that you will find at least one person at church that will give you the reaction you're looking for.

      I couldn't care less if some ward members think negatively of me for it. I did get encouragment from some ward members, though, and that was great.

        SIRS just referred to my developing beard as a "French Tickler."

            I've been thinking of shaving my plumage, but if you're going to join me, maybe I'll reconsider. Now, go and get pellegrino to participate.

              I've been rocking a beard for the last 3 weeks. Just shaved it off this morning. Feels pretty good.

Now you stick to that, and everything else is cream cheese. --Coach Finstock

                I have had some variation of a beard for the past 10 years. I think I look damn good.

                  What's the appeal of wearing a beard?

                    Not shaving!

                    I would grow a beard if I could. I mean, I can grow one, but it just becomse way too uncomforable after 10 days. My skin on my neck just can't handle it so I always end up just shaving it off.
                    "Discipleship is not a spectator sport. We cannot expect to experience the blessing of faith by standing inactive on the sidelines any more than we can experience the benefits of health by sitting on a sofa watching sporting events on television and giving advice to the athletes. And yet for some, “spectator discipleship” is a preferred if not primary way of worshipping." -Pres. Uchtdorf

                      I can't stand going more than 4 days without shaving.

                        After about six weeks, it starts to get soft, and it doesn't itch anymore. Now, it's just hot, and sometimes when I eat, the hairs from the corners of my mustache get into my mouth.

                          I just wish I could grow a decent one, min is very patchy and sparse. I keep waiting to grow up so I can

                          I may be small, but I'm slow.

                            That is why they invented beard/mustaceh trimmers.

                              In central PA, I found a winter beard to be essential for outdoor running or other activities. It makes a huge difference in the wind and cold.
