Bearded since: 2004. I am a dedicated, permanent beard grower.

Comments:
I grew my beard because I was always interested in growing facial hair as I was growing up. Started with chops and moved to a short cropped, full beard as it matured. I like the way it looks / feels and the attention it attracts from certain women. Also, I hate the standard corporate image of the clean shaven male. The idea that beards are somehow dirty or otherwise unhygienic is ridiculous.

How do I feel about my beard? Love it more now than ever!
