I have sported a beard for 7 years now. I keep it looking nice and neat. I have never had any problems with with. As a matter of fact, as I began sporting it more preachers have started wearing them. I think they are cool. When I was in the military I could not have one because of the the inability of a gas mask to make a proper seal but hey I don't have to worry about chemical and biological agents now so I say, "Grow that beard." I am man hear my beard roar. I am a preacher. I have sported a beard for 7 years now. I keep it looking nice and neat. I have never had any problems with with.

After three weeks, it is quite substantial and now trying to decide how long to grow and style it. No Fu Manchu, but closer to stubble or in between. Trouble is the grey seems to draw the effect from the appearance. Thinking of dye, but heard both yes and no. Any suggestions? I'm quite impressed with the look, anyway, thinking it gives me a more manly-virile look......the wife hates it. I’m in the process of growing a goatee.

I say I find it funny because the top man in charge of our top financial institution, The Federal Reserve, sports a mighty beard!
