both beard growing and fire face that is xpost
after shaving a couple of weeks ago, i am regrowing my beard now, but this time not trimming/shaping it at all to see what happens. it looks pretty bad, my facial hair grows slowly and doesn't appear to come in it all right under my chin

sorry
Beards are the only thing I hate about winter. I still shave my legs in the winter -- get with it, males of the species.

i shaved my beard, but it looked terrible, so i grew it back. i am now thinking of shaping it so that it's shorter on the sides but long from the chin. i am not exactly sure how this is done.

That is a mustache, not a beard.
Actually my hair is v. dirty today. Perhaps tonight I will try painting on a full ginger beard.

i like the idea of having a beard a lot more than actually having one
― mark cl, Wednesday, 18 November 2009 13:29 (fourteen years ago) link
Do they itch?
I always wondered if that beard-scritching thing that boys while thinking do is an affectation, or if they do actually itch.

if you use a shampoo & conditioner it helps the itching. the itchiest part is like weeks 2-4 imo

i grow a beard every few months, but i've never had a really long one. next time i'm single, maybe. i can grow a respectable 'short' beard in a week.
― Louis Cll (darraghmac), Wednesday, 18 November 2009 13:42 (fourteen years ago) link
So it's like any other kinda hair - itches when it's new, but settles in after a few weeks.
Damnm, I want a beard.
And I don't want to have to get a boyfriend to experience beard fun. I want one of mine own.

just some fyi to you young beardos, when yr gray beard hairs start coming in they will be wirier than regular beard hairs and they won't go in the same direction

i just did some shaping and i fear it was premature
― BIG HOOS aka the steendriver, Friday, 20 November 2009 20:33 (fourteen years ago) link
yea premature shaping can totally ruin a beard imo
― mark cl, Friday, 20 November 2009 20:43 (fourteen years ago) link
can make it look a little douchey
tho hoos i'm sure you don't look like a douche
huh i always thing its good to shape early and then let nature work with the seams
― plaxico (I know, right?), Friday, 20 November 2009 20:44 (fourteen years ago) link
this is kinda how i went when i was sporting a beard (that i think i'm ready to grow back). i kept it a little longer around the 'stache & chin than the sides. i'm cheap and used scissors (very carefully), but i suppose the multiple settings of decent beard trimmer could be employed.

Last month, I grew a three-week beard for the first time in a few years and was amazed at how gray my chin was. Not terribly surprised, because I can tell from the stubble, but it was still fascinating.

I wear mine like this:

I shave around it every day to keep the shape, and trimmed once a week to keep the length close. If I had a more casual work environment, I would just go for this:
