Share a beard

Such is the generous nature of beard growers and their admirers, that I’ve received requests to feature on the blog, as well as had hunters submit beards they’ve encountered out and about. Guys, share the wealth! If you’d like to send me a beard, hit me up at: katherine.alice.smith at gmail dot com.

Jack.

Name: Jack
(Beard) Age: 3 months
Do you miss your chin? Hell no!
Beard grooming routine: I nit comb it with a hairdryer to tame the fine strands.

Submitted by: Helen

Thanks Helen, Jack looks just lovely. That is aside from his terrifying eyes. We can only assume the beard has been grown to distract from the fact that Jack can kill people with a single glance. Great work Jack!

Andrew.

Name: Andrew
(Beard) Age:  My beard is now about a year old, though it has been trimmed a fair few times since its creation.
Do you miss your chin? I do not. Nor do I think I ever will. Have you seen beards, why would anyone ever choose a chin over one?
Beard grooming routine: I trim with scissors and neaten around my cheeks and neck with a razor around the time I feel the first signs of independent thought developing.

Submitted by: Laura

It really was only a matter of time before Laura submitted a beard, she’s been an ardent follower from the start. And holy-moly are we pleased she shared Andrew. For starters, that’s a great snap, placing Andrew alongside a bearded sculpture is exactly the kind of photography that floats our boat. Secondly, its wonderful to see such growth on one so young: Andrew is but 19 years of age. Boy, does he have the right hormones! He also exhibits some excellent dry humour that will serve his bearded life well. Thanks Laura!

Joe.

Name: Joe
(Beard) Age:  5 years.
Do you miss your chin? I hate my chin – good riddance to my chin!
Beard grooming routine: Abandonment!

Submitted by: Helen

Samuel.

Name: Samuel
(Beard) Age:  1 month.
Do you miss your chin? Nahh not really. No.
Beard grooming routine: Trim underneath every now and then. And also every now and then, I like to moisturise. I’m not pedantic; if it feels good, it looks good!

Submitted by: Helen

Well look at this! A double whammy from chief contributor and favourite bar-lady, Helen. She is quite literally up to her neck in beard down at the Grace Darling. I did worry for a minute, given Joe’s expression, that she’s being rather forceful with her beard-joy (and I stress all such interviews are an artistic and social collaboration, never under duress), but Samuel doesn’t look even a smidgeon ill at ease, so plough on ahead Helen. I think Joe may just have something up with his photo face. Don’t we all Joe!
