Bearded since: 1999. I am an experimental beard grower.

Comments:
Why did I grow my beard? Why not? It's a part of me. I think beards are men's most natural "make-up". So why go out unvarnished?

How do I feel about my beard? Without my beard, I really hate that baby-face look. So I try different styles and my feeling changes with every shape. All in all, I wish it had some more between lips and chin and was a bit higher on the cheeks. But I won't complain. It's okay (I have seen many people who can't grow even that).
