How long is your beard?

Jonny69 · 13-12-2008, 13:01

Have you ever considered how long your beard really is? Some of us are more hirsute than others, not me I might add, but Will is for example. Look where your beard goes. Does it end on your chin or does it grow down your neck a bit? Or does it join onto your chest hair? It's getting pretty long now isn't it? What about that stripe that attaches your chest hair to your publics, does your beard really grown down to your groin? Good god, look at that leg hair, all the way down to your feet. I reckon many of us could grow a bushy beard right down to our feet then. Not me though. Why are feet so bald then, when the toes are hairy?

My feet are as hairy as my toes but that comes with being a hobbit bumpkin!

For both the sake of my physical attraction and my girlfriend I keep the facial hair very short or non-existant

It's nice to know that others think about how one could grow one's beard to groin length, weave it in with pubic hair and create a fantastic bristly harp to strum to the amusement of all at family meetings.

Funny you should mention it as I've just started sporting a beard in the last month. I have something of a babyface and I'm getting a bit miffed with the perception that I'm young and inexperienced when I meet people professionally.
It was getting unruly so I got an electric trimmer last week and therefore I know my beard is exactly 3mm in length. It's also a bit ginger

My beard is going swimmingly. Started growing it a couple of weeks ago, as it's required for my new years fancy dress costume. 'Tis also ginge.

My beard grows weird, all over my neck and essentially right to my chest like you mention, and all over the back of my cheeks like under my ears but completely missed my cheeks

Like grows a Derren Brown esque thing around my mouth and thats it for the front of my face. I think it looks really weird when it gets to any length...

My "beard" is 0.5mm long. I have an electric trimmer and every couple of days trim it back down. Not that it really needs it, as when I try and let it grow it grows slightly patchy

Well I have about a 3" gap between the end of my beard which is just at the start of the vertical though down the sides of the neck it seems to go down a bit further... my chest hair has a bit of a "tuft" just below the adam's apple, then the chest wig starts. I have continuity down to my ankles and bald feet! lol! Oh and bald inner thighs as they rub together when I walk which causes a little bit of irritation in the summer lol. So yes I could almost getaway with a fullbody beard - though I've noticed I've started to have hair growing on me ears

I'm either getting old, or the testosterone level in my body is rocketing up (which I suspect is likely ot be the case).
