Bearded since: 1971. I am a dedicated, permanent beard grower.

Comments:
Why did I grow my beard? I am a redhead with sensitive skin and shaving irritates it. Over the years I've kept it trimmed, but six years ago I started playing Santa Claus and I haven't cut it since.

How do I feel about my beard? I love my beard. I get lots of comments on it and I love being Santa Claus every year. My once-red hair is now white with some red highlights. So it fits perfectly for Santa.
