Not much to report really. Only the occasional itch, no odd reactions from people as this isn't too uncommon at the mo. Less nagging from the wife though as she seems to have accepted it as a permanent feature until at least the 31st. I'll be back in work again next week so that might bring some more reactions.

Come on, lets see your bristles.

This is the end, no more itching, no more "looking like you've dropped out", or "whens your next dose of methadone fix".

Go ahead, join the scruffy git club. We could always count your photo from the 21st as your finishing pic.

Been bearded on and off for a few years. Bit late to join in now, but particularly hairy and scruffy at moment as its too cold to shave hair or beard. The words beard and lecturer probably go together anyway so no problem at work.

Have sported a varied combination of beards, goatees, huge burns, oddly coloured hair, dreads and mohicans over the years, so looking like a scruffy odd ball is kinda normal.

Can't be bothered posting a pic of my pathetic beard attempt (i'm fair haired y'know!) but I do have one, really long chest hair if that counts? Its about 4 inches long, while all the others are one inch or smaller. Very odd. Right in the middle too.

I'm out.

It got too scruffy and itchy. Nowhere near as good as I_Aches so not really worth continuing with ๐Ÿ™ So some Taylors soap, Merkur razor and Feather blade and my face is all smooth and I don't look homeless!

The itchiness has completely gone for me now and someone at work commented that it's actually starting to look like a beard ๐Ÿ™‚

The hairs on my top lip have started to touch the ones on my bottom lip, which is an odd feeling.

I'm thinking of keeping mine longer too. Will decide when I get a better idea of how if fills out when left longer, but I fancy keeping it till SSUK in June.

Terrible. Not an ounce of testosterone between you. 10 days to get some 5 o'clock shadow?
Big beards are so December 2008. I've just trimmed down from 'WG Grace' to 'Ming the Merciless'

On the positive side, we're unlikely to go bald or get into fights ๐Ÿ™‚

Would take me at least a year to grow a beard, maybe one day.

32 Years old and only shave twice a week ๐Ÿ˜ณ

The wife isnt at all happy with me she says it hurts and really doesnt like it.

It is a great form of contraception!
