                                                Bearded since: 1998.  I am a dedicated, permanent beard grower.
 Comments:
 As an adult, I've never been happy with how I look "clean-shaven".  As luck would have it, I married a gal who also prefers my having a hairy face.
 
 How do I feel about my beard? I love it. I like experimenting with it. I'll go from having a goatee that I don't trim for a year, to letting the whole thing go for a year or more, and everything in between. I currently have a "chin curtain" which I am thinking of combining with a VERY long goatee.
