                                                Bearded since: 1997. I am a dedicated, permanent beard grower. 
 
Comments: 
I had three reasons for growing a beard. First, I originally I grew it to look older so I could buy alcoholic beverages. Second, I was tired of having my face break out from shaving. Third, I had been shaving since I was twelve and was sick of doing it. 
 
How do I feel about my beard? I love it! You'll never see me with less than a mustache and goatee combo.
