                                                Bearded since: 2007.  I am a dedicated, permanent beard grower. 
 
Comments: 
I served in the military for six years in which I had to shave every day. When I got out, I became obsessed with the beard. 
 
How do I feel about my beard?  I like my beard. I feel more confident with it than without it. My wife likes it trimmed short, but I prefer the longer look.
