                                                Bearded since: 1980. I am a dedicated, permanent beard grower.
 Comments:
 The desire for me to grow a beard started in high school. It's a part of manhood, and I didn't want to have to shave daily.
 
 How do I feel about my beard? I love having a beard. Over the years it has become such a part of who I am. I've kept the length at about 1.5 inches until November of 2011, when I decided to let it grow. As of February it was four inches long. The longer it gets, the more I like it.
