"Why go to all that trouble to look like a pre-pubescent boy?"Coz you might have fleas in them beards ...
Nah, the cockroaches keep them under control... 🙂
I get really sore skin when I shave so I use a beard trimmer with the gate off to get it back to about 2mm then leave it until it gets itchy or scruffy looking

My throat beard is a thing of joy and beauty. I rarely need to shave my cheeks but my 'tache is a lovely thing. Sadly I'm the only person in the world who doesn't have to look at my face / neck.
So I shave. A beard doesn't suit everybody and I've tried everything from 'leccy rotary things to King of Shaves gel with a cut throat. Settled on a Mac three and Morrisons shaving foam.
We're not allowed to have beards at work because as part of our role requires us to wear breathing apparatus.
I had radiotherapy a few years ago that's left me with a fair bit of the right side of my face that doesn't grow hair. 😐
I have thick coarse hair that's widely spaced. It was a good 6 weeks before it wasn't patchy. It took another 6 months of experimentation to find style that suited my face.
This is the ideal thread to post this.

Which is my 'first draft' beard, accompanied with shouts of 'What's wrong with BIG TOMATOES?!' From my riding chums.
I ended up with something neater in the end.
