Bearded since: 2003. I am a dedicated, permanent beard grower.

I grew my beard because, being from a Jewish background and recently getting a lot more into my religion, I found several laws against shaving.

Ever since I learned this and it made sense to me I completely stopped shaving.

After learning the Jewish significance of a beard, I feel like it is a huge spiritual blessing.
I cant even imagine being without it.
