Do you wear a beard?

supernova84

I'd have to shave after three days anyway, never really experimented with letting it grow though. So boys and girls do you wear a beard?

I love my beard.

I always thought it was a weird way of saying it, "wearing" a beard.

But yes, sometimes I do, other days I'll just put on a handlebar moustache if I can find my monocle.

MistyCheese

Yes.

On my right knee.

nbar12

The amount of girls with Ronnies!

Praetorian Saighdiuir

I want a big feck off beard

KTRIC

Official "Boards Beard™" thread is here

Professey Chin

I does. Been various lengths over the years.
Ive been told it suits me. Main reason though is I look about 12 when clean shaven and im convinced gillettes and them fcukers are out to kill me

Mint Sauce

No. I found it cheaper to grow one.

Beards have nearly become a fashion statement, 10 years ago very few men in their 20's or 30's had them. I have to say I'm s sucker for a bearded man!

ScumLord

Of course I have a beard. Every man that can grow a beard should grow a beard. The have an endless array of uses, They keep the cold out, they keep the rain out, they make people call you sir, they work in lieu of an age card, they help you think by stroking them and they save on shaving costs.

I have a beard after 3 days. What I have the next morning is like 3-5 days growth for most guys. Pain in the nads it is.

Latchy

No .

I could do with a shave now but it can wait until morning .

castletownman

I wear my fake peado beard, rapist glasses and public masturbaters trenchcoat in the town park every Friday.

ITS_A_BADGER

I has a beard, mostly coz its a pain in the arse shaving everyday, so in the last few months i let it grow and am told it suits me But i hate when its gets too long i give it a clip with me hair clippers and alls well for another 3 weeks

crazy cabbage

Yea. Trying it out. In college now and think it is the only time that i will get to experment with it becouse i think there is a social stimga attached to beards in jobs. I have never seen anyone (who works with the public) growing a beard.

Met a relitive the other day i havent seen in ages. First comment is 'you have grown a beard. you cant do that. you should shave'. :eek:
I then proceded to tell him that it wasn't my job to confirm to other peoples ridiculusly silly social expitations.
He replyed by saying,'ooo i was just making an obversation and saying that it might be a good idea to shave'.

I really wanted to say ' you have gained weight. you should go on a diet. ooooo i was just making an observation'. i didn't though becouse i would have gotten a slap. I just walked away.

NegativeCreep

Can't grow one What does grow on my face cannot be described as a beard and makes me look stupid!

zcorpian88

Grew one a few weeks ago as a bet to a friend of mine while out having a few drinks. He bet 20 euro I couldn't grow a beard in 4 weeks. Showed up in the pub with what was described as a "fisherman's beard" 4 weeks later. Easiest 20 euro I ever made!

Completely agree! Guys with beards hot!

Scruffles

nope,am not into costume play,damn cosplayers are taking over boards.
its a bit hard growing a beard also,being medicaly unable to grow almost no body hair and biologicaly female.:pac:

TeddyTedson

Usually a bit of stubble just for me.
I did grow one a while ago however and it was amazing the reaction it got. I was quite thick which I was surprised about. People I know seemed disturbingly infatuated by it though.
I'm clean shaven now for the first time in about a year.
Actually last time I was clean shaven the big baldy bohs fan of a bouncer asked me what age I was:eek: I look my age with bit of stubble but clean shaven I look scarily younger. Not in a good way either!
Also if your beard is strongly ginger and very long, chances are people assume you're a peado, just saying...

kfallon

Only shave about once every 5 or 6 days, never grew the full beard and prob never will tbh. I'm just lazy in that I shave my head and then I can't be arsed to do the face afterwards

mackg

I'm just back from the barbers, went from a tramp style beard that had my friends calling me "the shoe bomber" to a tidier no. 2. I can't grow a full beard though there is always a little gap between the beard and moustache portions on both sides.

Good to hear
We did a poll in the office where i work (slow day!)...and majority of women prefer guys with beard/stubble..than the boyband look!:(

Katunga

started growing one a week ago for the first time, now I have one.

1ZRed

Can't grow a full beard because it's patchy but I do grow nice stubble Have to shave every two days at least because it grows like a bitch

False Prophet

Tried different styles from about 18 through college but then i had to grow up and get a real job....
Now usually a bit of stubble but anytime i have a few weeks off i just let it grow away

Good for me then. Even when I shave against the grain I have heavy 5o clock shadow all over. I can't look clean shaven even if I wanted to. Even went to one of those Turkish barbers for a hot towel, cut throat shave and the same thing, it was a waste of time.

zcorpian88

When I had a beard (grew it for a 20 euro bet) and the night I won the bet and claimed the money, was walking home with a friend afterwards some boyband skinhead type looked like an under age fella, falls out of a pub and walks right into me and shouts "Get outta me way ya bearded bastard"

Boyband types despise beards I guess :P not my fault he was barely pubescent ha

starviewadams

Haven't shaved for a month and have cultivated the beginnings of a fine beard,just past that horrible slightly ginger tinged phase too.Thinking of not shaving for the rest of the year now.

starbelgrade

Men are supposed to have beards. Shaving is for ladies.

So general rules are...
beard/stubble..hot
Boyband look...not!!

Keep up the beards

Galwayguy35

I do ofton think about growing a beard and sometimes don't shave for maybe 3 weeks but still wouldn't have a really thick beard.

how long does it take to grow a full beard?

About twenty minutes.

Mint Sauce

Although I have to say with the effort it takes to keep a beard tidy and sculpted, its quicker to shave the thing off.

I've looked it up before when I foolishly tried to grow something substantial on my face at 17 but they said to leave it for 6 weeks and don't touch it and you'll be grand.

Cardex

Decided to grow a light beard about 2 years ago and have never looked back. Jesus the thoughts of shaving every day. Now I just do a bit of strim every week. It also has the added bonus of pissing my boss off no end. He's bald, has a kind of Monty Burns look going on. He finds it difficult to hide his resentment of any male member of staff that has a full head of hair. Even more so if they have a beard. He consistently treats the baldies better. I think at some unconscious level he sees additional facial hair as an unnecessary statement of a virility that he probably thinks he's lacking. I'm conscious that I may be reading too much into this. It occurs to me that he may just dislike me cos he thinks I'm an asshole.

Snowie

Rough shaven for the win my beard goes ginger...

Im half day walker

Might try that so and see how I get on.

El Guapo!

I have a kind of pathetic goatee for the last couple of years. Was gonna grow a beard for the craic but it doesn't grow full and thick so usually after about a weeks growth I look homeless and give in to the razor.

JupiterKid

I've had a goatee for the past 5 months or so. Loving it.:D

The only annoying thing is toothpaste and other gack that gets stuck in my 'tache.:pac:
