Bearded since: 1995. I am a dedicated, permanent beard grower.

Comments:
Why did I grow my beard? Having a beard feels like the natural state of being for a man. I feel naked without a beard.

How do I feel about my beard? I have always been impressed by those who can grow full, long, "'bush ranger" beards as we call them in Australia. Personally I always stuck to a manicured goatee and mustache as I felt uncomfortable with the sparse growth on my cheeks. As I got older and achieved a bit more growth and confidence I've settled on a goatee to the maximum length I can achieve and I clipper the sides. Take it as far as possible!
