My last shave or trim was 1st Jan. I always thought my beard grew quite healthily and even, but it seems the more it grows it varies. The cheeks seem to have stalled but the chin/neck is moving on.
I have been going since 10th December and am getting looks from people that have gone past “oh you’ve got a beard” to “Errm, OK, you’ve won the bet but seriously now….” and “Woops you put your head on upside down this morning”.
Thinking about shaving it feels like taking a pet to the vets to have it put down. We’ve become very attached, but I think its time.
Alternatively I could just take the pet to the grooming salon, have a trim, scrub, wash n conditioner and get back out there with a new lease of life.

I think mine might be a keeper, but will need a bit of trimming. I’m leaving it au naturale to the end of the month, but will be tidying up the neck a bit after that.
Have trimmed… was an experience. Put the #1 attachment on my clippers and extended the blades fully, expecting to take off a couple of mm’s and tons fell off, way more than expected. So now it is fuzzy all over rather than grizzly.
from looking at these pics mine has definately stopped growing. Could be handy in a kind of not needing to shave type way but not handy in a ‘growing a bush’ competition.
On a course all week so no access to camera. Maybe the picture on Friday will be better !

I thought mine had slowed down, but it’s gone quite bushy this morning.
why does everyone have ginger beards?
I think it’s the flash. Mine’s much lighter-coloured than my hair, but the photos are always taken in a room with red walls so it looks redder. That’s my excuse, anyway.

Mine did the same, thought it had finished. Then realised how bushy it was ‘all of a sudden’
It hasn’t stopped, you’re just getting used to it. 🙂
