Bearded since: 1986. I am a dedicated, permanent beard grower.

Comments:
I was influenced by bearded men in sports, television actors, etc. and always wanted to have a beard ever since I was very young.

How do I feel about my beard? I have become quite attached to my beard. I have allowed my beard to grow without cuttting it back since October of 2009. I wanted a long beard and made a commitment to let it go a certain length. It is almost there.
