Am I the only one who thinks it looks retarded? Every few guys is trying to grow one out now. I would hate to base my entire fashion statement off of Dan Bilzerian of all people.

Men should naturally have beards. Shaving is unnatural. Letting their facial hair grow isn't something they necessarily do intentionally, it can also come from being too lazy to shave.

I used to shave every day but I would always have skin irritation no matter what product I would try. I got tiered of always having red bumps around my neck so I started rocking the stubled look. My Skin is much healthier now but to each their own I guess.

A buddy of mine is 32, and this fool jumps on board with every new high school trend that comes out..first it was the skinny jeans, then the gay ass thick black frame nerd glasses, now this fool has a near replica James Harden beard..This dude's Dad is Iranian, so he looks like a trendy member of the Taliban

what do you wash your face with ?

Harsh cleansers can damage the skin, which leads to bad shaves tbh

Dragging sharp metal over your skin every day is a much harder cleanse tbqh

i always have at least some facial hair, i haven't been clean shaven since i was in high school... but sometimes it does grow out more than i like just due to laziness. i expect thats the case for most guys that let it grow out of hand, unless they're amish or some shit

Depends on the beard type.

I keep a week's worth of neartly trimmed, tightly shaped growth. It's a bit shorter on sides, and is tapered into about three weeks of growth on my chin. I trim the scruff off my lower neck, but I don't shave to just under the jaw. Always thought that looked stupid. The 'stache is short and in general the whole thing is easy to maintain.

I'd never grow out a lumberjack beard. Those just look stupid, at least they do until your like 60 and look like Gandolph.

I read one opinion where the beard fad, esp the long, unkempt, Mountain Man beards, is heteros trying to prove they are Real Men, aren't homos (feared as being on the rise) or even metrosexuals (too groomed to be hetero).

Same with paranoid, dickless assholes packing heat to prove their don't-fuck-with-me manliness, to cover their dicklessness with a dick substitute.

Biological response doesn't work like that. You don't see birds in the wild plucking out their tail feathers because all the chicks have decided that plumage is out of style.

If you look better clean shaven , then you will get more women that way

Sporting a solid moustache at the moment.

For those who's skin gets easily irritated try the old school single blade razors. Closest shave I've ever gotten, no irritation but time consuming. Making shaving cream, getting your skin hot first etc

I used to have a full Harden beard--I did it because the lady liked it and I managed it. Had the beard oil and beard wax to keep it frozen in time. I decided that after a couple years it was time to trim and well, I have the stache because I look too young w/o it.

I know you all have noticed this shit by now. WTF, every fucking guy has a beard now. That shit is so gay, not the having beard part, but the fact every dude did it at the same time has got to be fucking a gay memo I didn't get. Unoriginal is the theme of this generation

Yea I guess it's trendy, but I like it. Not so much the facial hair itself but the grooming also. Most aren't the gross Duck Dynasty filth catchers; guys are putting care into maintaining their facial hair and I think they look good.

Men have been growing beards for long before you were born son. Just because you cant grow one doesnt mean nobody else should.


And also, why you noticing so many dudes? How can you possibly say that every dude has a beard unless you consistently check out dudes? Seems a little suspect to me.

Work won't let me grow a beard because in managerial role you have to look "professional." So in protest I grew out a 70s porn stache and some giant chops because there are no rules against this tbh. Might add a soul patch to up the doucheiness level by 10

I guess I thought it would feel scratchy like stubble does. It was soft and I really didn't notice it much.

Yeah, most women I've dated when I've had a beard have that initial reluctance. However, I keep mine well conditioned and soft. The current lady friend loves it and once you condition it, the beard feels like nothing at all.
