How does INGO wear the beard?

That is a lovely mug shot.

Isn't it?

Been rocking a goatee for over a decade, recently decided I wanted the full viking beard. After the woman realized that would mean she could braid it she was on board, and 2 weeks later I am happy to report it has reached full but clean status!

I cant wait till mine's grown out and I can put it in two braids.

It is a lot longer now and will never be cut again. I am a man.

I'm not sure what "I am a man" has to do with it, but you'll never cut it again? That is hard core.

You do have an impressive beard, BTW...You should start a thread with bi-yearly progress pics.

i try to grow one every winter but it gets so itchy that i have always shaved it off. Lets be honest though, its 1000000x easier to grow a beard than it is to shave every morning. In the summer time my face is so smooth and fresh. I shave with a single double sided safety razor, i use a mug and a badger brush. Id love to see some beard growers give that a try. Try holding a extremely sharp razor to your jugular every morning without the modern safety stuff that disposables have all while being half asleep and not cutting yourself. Its an art.

Rocking a goatee here...my beards come out kinda patchy.

Right now I stay clean shaven except for chops, because the girlfriend hates my scruffyness, But I will be going full on unkempt mess for no shave november this year and I plan to keep it all winter.

This was last year, my first ever attempt at a full beard.

I usually CCB but on this day I was OCBing...

You're thin enough that you don't really need those vertical stripes.

Usually goatee but currently I'm rockin the full but neatly pruned version.
Currently only shaving the roof.

If I let mine go for two weeks, it starts looking like I might be able to achieve evil Spock plus some strays, but then it slows down and stops. I'm 48 now and kind of given up on it coming in any more. Plenty on the cranium, though.

I've been doing no shave November for at least 5 years. It has been trimmed, fairly close, a few times. Right now, I'd say it isn't quite overgrown. It is only about 6-8 inches long. I can't stand having a mustache though so I usually knock that down with trimmers a couple times a year.

Here's mine:

I've had mine like that before but I couldn't stand it because it made my shoulder twitch constantly. It also sounded like I was channeling a sailor with a very low IQ.

I had a mustache only for about 3 years and I loved it, I used to wax the tips. I miss it!

I tried the Rollie Fingers mustache a few years back. It was a disaster. I couldn't keep maintaining it enough.

Sorry to but in on your manly beard thread....just wanted to point out that what you guys are calling a goatee is actually a Van dyke. A goatee is just chin hair, a van dyke combines a goatee and mustache.

Just a little education kinda like the license vs permit issue.

Mine is not so much a beard but a scruff...I trim it short but not smooth

Say, you look like that James Yeager guy who hates 1911's and oc'ing

One that has been missing since 1945 (though once quite popular) is the old "Hitler Moustache"...It was not even listed on your list. So the question is how many years will it take for it to be socially acceptable again?? Will it ever???
