Bearded since: 1997. I am a dedicated, permanent beard grower.

I've always had facial hair, at least since I was a teenager. But when I joined the Army , I had to shave it all off... every day. Cold and lonely times, my friends. So right when I got out, I decided to grow it back. My goatee and I have been together ever since.

How do I feel about my beard? I love it. We've been through some crazy times together. It may not be much, but it's mine. Besides, if it weren't for my goatee, I'd just have my eyebrows..... and I don't think they like me very much after the incident with the stove.
