Bearded since: 1988. I am a dedicated, permanent beard grower.

Comments:
I grew it orignally to look older. I removed it once since 1988 and I was carded for purchasing spray paint at the local hardware store. Since then, I have grown it back and kept it.

I enjoy the feel of it and the looks of it. Now that I am in the "older" crowd, it has separated me among the men from the boys. I have some gray exposing, but is coming in a nice way, not all at once.
