Started a goatee the day my kid was born......Feb 15, 2000. Have kept it ever since........have a beard now, and mamachef apparently has fantasies about Modaho, cause now she wants me to shave it into a mormon beard. Unacceptable.
I keep my beard and hair at the same length these days, which has meant growing my hair out a little more. Both are kind of tightly trimmed, and I wash both with soap and water, the same as I use on th rest of me.
That was my point, Ragu. Men with beards shall be men, not people who exfoliate. They were hired to look after the sheep, not stem the rose.
