    Social Distancing Beards

    Some of you have had social distancing beards forever, I'm looking at you mikey.

    But who else is growing a rat's nest while stuck at home? If this keeps up, I'm going to be able to hide a sammich in mine before long.

    I am in Mikey's category. Carry on.

    I had to tame everything with a #2 a couple weeks back when the hairs on my upper lip start annoying my nose. It's getting about that time again.

    I have done a little lip trimming, but the rest is going wild. Also makes me look much older than my already advanced years, as the beard is mostly white.

    Yeah, glad my head doesn't have the same amount of grey proportionally that is on my beard. That said, I am going to shave my head just as soon as I get enough motivation to go upstairs and get the trimmer. Been a week so far and not yet.

    Last time I grew a beard for even just a couple of weeks, we were over in Glacier. What I discovered is that, even though my hair is still blond, my beard has decidedly taken a turn for the pure white. That was the end of that. I look old enough already, I didn't feel the need to enhance my elderly appearance. No-go for me with a pandemic beard.

    My daughter is anxiously waiting to be able to braid mine in another week or two. It has been a couple of years since it has been this full.

    I have to grow my beard out to distract from the fact that my back hair has grown out to the point that it is now seamlessly integrated with the hair on the back of my head.

    That's closer to reality than you care to know. I think it's about time the popped collar came back into style...

    I bet I still have a Lacoste polo or three from my prep school days kicking around.

    When you are dealing with Covid 19 infection with his wife, probably not the highest priority to shave. Other than beards can be a problem for safe mask fitting and all.

    Checking in. Haven't trimmed mine in like 6 weeks. I stand in shaggy solidarity with my stylist. Free the stylists!

    I might have to trim my face flat for the time being. Wearing a mask while breathing, sweating into my beard is mostly unbearable. Plus my beard trim guy is out of service and I'm not really highly evolved like some of you so my beard goes full gorilla/face pelt fast without regular attention from a pro.

    I usually have a large and imposing beard...cut it off at the start of stay at home. A lot easier to avoid touching my face without twisting my stash or pontification beard stroking. Haven't shaved for four weeks and it's probably an average beard again...like what most of you 16 year olds are growing.

    I also shaved my beard of at least 8 years at the start of stay at home, but I've kept shaving it. I'll probably grow tired of shaving here shortly and let it grow back or at least the stache.

    I had a trimming accident last week and went with a goatee as the wife wouldn't approve of a mustache. It works but I will probably go back to a beard soon as I am too lazy to shave.

    That's funny. I hadn't shaved in 7-8 years too. I had one new razor blade in the house that I kept for emergencies...like courts appearances or shaving my nuts for a vasectomy. Now I'm down to no new razor blades.

    Good move to stay out of the hospitals just now.

    Most are kicking the elective stuff down the road any way.

    Used my beard trimmer when I started wearing a mask and I'll keep it trimmed for a bit. Now if I could convince my partner to give me a hair cut I wouldn't look like a crazy person.
