I am growing an Iron and Wine beard.


If you feel this is ill-advised, speak now or forever hold your peace.

11. I green-lighted a beard...
not the crazy prof and/or homeless guy look. You know you will look like a serial killer with this beard.

4. Trim it.
The color looks fine. (Says the guy who also has a gray and red beard.) But it's very bushy and looks un-groomed.

7. That's what these sensitive college-guy types are doing these days.
It's either this or the emo hair.

9. Neither option looks very good.

Unless you want to look Orthodox Jewish, in which case the beard is fine.

23. Did I tell you about the cartoon I saw on local access TV?
It was the "Chosen People" singing "Matzo Man." Animated singing matzos.

I wish I had made that up. :o

21. I'd start with something a little easier...
like a Lemmy Kilmeister beard.

27. Hey Bud
Refer to Rob's post #26. You *MAY* be able to pull of the crazy-man beard if the rest of you is dressed like a Cambridge prof. I don't know if Rob was seris or not, but it might work.

25. You should grow a goatee, shave your head, and wear studded leather.
Then you'll get as many chicks as this guy:

26. Like it, one caveat:
You must never, ever, ever with this beard wear a t-shirt again. Collared shirts forever, from now on.

Best avoid toques and hooded sweatshirts, too. :D

30. um, no
I have to say I love those monster sideburns people seem to be sporting, though.

But wives, above all, seem to have final say in these matters.
