Novembeard 2013... Who's in?

[Double T]

This. When I worked in retail, beards bigger than goatee's were a no-no. Now that I work from home, and thus have no dress code, I can do as I please. Count me in. May drive the wife and child mad, but I'm interested to see if I can get something to grow.

My healthcare facility has a line in the manual about not having long beards due to potential issues for patients grabbing it. IDC and have one.

I'm in as well.



Most firefighters are unable to have a beard because it prevents the seal of a SCBA mask. Big crazy handlebar mustaches are ok though.

Cldedhnds nailed it

Jealous.

I miss doing this but I can't grow anything for more than 4 days before I have to shave for work.

I've been enjoying Septembeard since uhhh...2000. It has been various lengths, styles, and amounts of food contained within. It has been trimmed maybe twice a year, not length, just strays and some bushiness for the last year.

I've had my beard now for close to a year, and it got rough for a while. Looked stragley, course rough hairs, itchy, etc., but I found a product that is awesome! Amazon.com: Honest Amish Beard Balm Leave-in Conditioner - All Natural -Vegan Friendly Organic Oils and Butters: Beauty

I've been using this product now for close to 6 months, and I use it every time I get out of the shower. It smells awesome, helps keep my beard from getting all curly and keeps the static down. After a week straight of using this I guarantee you'll be able to tell the difference.

I was looking at that when I bought Wild Man Beard Conditioning Oil. When that runs out, I'm going to try the Honest Amish stuff.

Both jobs and the school prohibit it

Same here, minus school. Both jobs prohibit it, so I'm out. I may go from clean shaven to a goatee though. Haven't decided yet.

I'm down.

Pics or it didn't happen. You do realize that No Shave November applies to legs and pits as well.

I'm in as well.

A coworker had to shave his crazy handlebar mustache for his fire job. But he's in a superior role, so maybe that's why.

I'm in EMS. I keep clean shaven for that fact.

I usually only mess with my beard when I get my hair cut,which it was about 90° out last time that happened.Otherwise it gets left alone.On Halloween night my face becomes baby-butt smooth and isn't touched until at least December 1st,usually longer.

I have only been without a beard once in 30 plus years and that was chemo and radiation treatments. Hair and beard finally grew back.

 

[Mackey]

No can do. Wife hates beards. I would have to do without while I had a beard.
Beard I can do without... the other.... nope.

I may partake maybe

Had my goatee going for about 2 months, only shave neck and rest of my face. Had a guest speaker in class ask me how long i've been growing it and if I was going to put beads in it or not.

 

[Clay]

Im planning to join in the festivities again this year. Might make it stick for a while this time.

 

[danmdevries]

Shaved off the long-term beard yesterday. Kept the 'stache. With my bald head I I look like a grape with a moustache.

I'm limited on my facial hair allowance and was really pushing the limits with my goatee. If I were to get fit-tested for a respirator, I would've failed because of the beard. Stache won't stay long, I'd rather look like a grape than a grape with a mustache.

What a douche. During the graduation ceremony, the dean of the school of business was handing out our diploma books and shaking hands. The line was moving fairly quickly across the stage. When it was my turn, he complimented the beard...everyone around me said he'd just said congrats and good luck. It was only about 4-5 inches long at that point.

Been growing a beard for 3 months. I hate that I'm going to have to shave it within a week. Work won't allow it

 

[Roan]

I'm in but I wouldn't call what I can grow a beard. It's more like a short patchy mess. Usually don't shave it from the beginning of waterfowl early season to the end of waterfowl late season.
