I’m still shaving my head, it looks upside down in the mirror :-)

Not being funny,just turn the mirror upside down then..

Didn't we have this thread last week?

There could be 100’s of us faced with this dilemma

Aren’t beards a contagion risk? Got rid of mine 2 weeks ago.

I prefer designer stubble to compliment my chiselled features and rugged good looks.

Men have grown beards for 100s of years without dyes, lotions or potions.

Occasionally run something through it to cure itchiness, but that's it.

I'll be waiting for your next threads:

Where can I get good hammers
Does anyone know of cheap carpet shops
What is the most secluded lay-by on the M6?

I stopped shaving when the lockdown came in, I’ve never had a beard do I need to invest in some hippie style beard oil, get some just for men beard and moustache for the odd grey hair (that’s all of it) to avoid the captain birds eye look or leave well alone letting nature take its course so woodland creatures can roam free ?

Hippy style? Hippies are the ones who don’t look after their beards.

I’ve had a beard for the best part of a decade. Got to keep on top of the ’tache and the bit around the jaw joint and next to the ear.

Trim it regularly and use decent beard oil when it’s short and wax when it’s long.

And never dye your beard (or hair). It looks stupid, especially the older you get because your as your face ages it suits grey hair. Also I’ve never seen one that’s dyed that doesn’t look obviously dyed. Grey beards are more distinguished anyway.

I meant hipster style :-) the dyed bit was a joke, I’ve been grey since I was 20

It’s been discovered that Vikings looked after their beards and had many specific beard tools and decorations... and ancient Berber warriors used argon oil in their beards and sold argon oil to people’s in other places.

Dyes I agree with!

Good! I always think dying beards looks daft.
