John: powerful classic full beard

John

John’s definitely got the genuine classic full beard turned up to full power.  He was kind enough to participate in a beards.org photo shoot yesterday for some serious beard photography.  The photo shoot also included a special guest appearance by Mike and his mighty beard.  Preview shots of the resulting combined bearded glory are here.

Stay tuned for a lot more of John on beards.org.   Here are some preview shots from John’s photo shoot.

all about beards’ sixteenth anniversary

all about beards' sixteenth anniversary

Keep growing.  Today marks the sixteenth anniversary of all about beards, the longest-running beard site on the web.  If all about beards has encouraged you to grow your beard, helped you to improve your beard, improved your view of beards, or had any other positive impact on you, please share by leaving a comment here or sending an email.  Thank you to all of the site’s friends for your support over the years.

nineteen million

nineteen million beards.org gallery views

The happiness for the new beard year did not even last one week for me.  My little sister was taken from us unexpectedly — suddenly and without warning.  The loss has been too difficult to bear.  Understandably, updates to beards.org ground to a halt.  Normally, I would see when the gallery views counter hits another million.  This time, I did not.  I figure, however, that it was most likely on January 9th.

Right now, I cannot feel any optimism for 2012.  But I have to carry on.  The sixteenth anniversary of “all about beards” is only days away now.  In my sister’s honor, somehow, I will do everything I can to make it the best year yet for beards.org and to surpass that each year that follows.

the art of bearded manliness

Beards are all about manliness.  But there is a lot more to manliness than beards.  To make the most of your bearded manliness, you should check out The Art of Manliness.  It is an amazing site devoted to the lost art of manliness.  You’ll find all kinds of articles with great advice and information there.  The site also is home to a thriving online community.

Plenty of our fans and friends found beards.org through The Art of Manliness.  A beards.org guest article on The Art of Manliness site has been quite popular.  For the last three years, the article has brought countless new visitors to beards.org.  It is still going strong, bringing a constant stream of new visitors to beards.org every day.  You can find the article here: Growing a Manly Beard.

Enjoy better living through bearded manliness: beards.org + The Art of Manliness = a winning combination, the art of bearded manliness!
