Beards

[Mrs Bee]

My old man has a beard, mainly because he would rather have extra time in bed in the morning than getting up to have a shave.

And as stated earlier a bearded man suited me.

I quite like guys with beards. OH doesn't have one, he says he can't grow a beard for some reason.

[Alison]

Nah, they're too scratchy and even worse when they have left over food in them like a guy I used to work with always had in his.

[Florence Fennel]

I like beards, but Himself only needs to shave twice a week even now so there'd be little chance. When we first met nearly 50 years ago he put milk on his face and let the cat lick it off

[Nicos]

I love beards!
OH grew his on our first summer holiday together ( no razor) and I just adored it!...he still has one to this day.
Personally I pluck mine from time to time

[Cadalot]

SWMBO hates them, so I lapsed on the shaving front in November last year, only problem is it's not good being a fat guy with a white beard on the way towards Christmas, It was just getting to that reasonable stage when I just couldn't take the fiddling with it anymore and shaved it off.

I must say I have noticed that the coastal erosion at the front is happening faster and an island is beginning to form and will no doubt within the next two - three years be total independent from the rest of my hair.

And just why does nose hair seem to appear over night once you get past 55?

I could grow a better beard than the OH these days!

[Scarlet]

It must be just me then...I hate them when the boys were little son#1 would cross the road to avoid a bloke with a beard they scared him ...I really hate the "fashionable" ones at the moment, and as Alison has said when they've got bits of food stashed away in them..yuk!

[burnie]

I have shaved once since I was 18, that was when I was 21, had a beard now for 48 years.

[Small pumpkin]

Other half has one most of the time. Which comes down to pure laziness! It comes off for special occasions ( going out, holiday) or in the summer when he gets to hot. But a week and half later we're back to full fury face.
I'm not a fan, don't really like them.

[JanieB]

Not really a fan but having said that my late OH grew one when the clocks changed in October and shaved it off when they changed again in March. Some people suit beards. I really don't understand the current fashion for them on young men.

Brian always kept his tash

I have 2 hairs that, if left, grow thick and dark on my face. One on my chin and t'other on my bottom lip. As soon as they get long enough for the tweezers to grip they're gone. I've made my daughter promise that if I get senile she'll do the job for me.

[boatsman]

Well I've beaten burnie by quite a few years. One gets very attached to a beard, it grows on you. All my sons have beards and so do several of my grandsons. Here in Israel beards are very popular.

[Baldy]

He's got some chops... think he might be Jewish come to think of it... possibly not practicing

I'm after the really long, slim thing he had... might cause a raised eyebrow or two at work

[Lumpy]

Here you go Balders......................how about this? You could put your cheese torpedo in one side and ypur mobile in the other.



or something much more Rock & Roll

[veggiechicken]

Some beards look good but that one in Baldy's post is just daft! Looks like something for cleaning the toilet
