Actually have done it, and am doing it pretty much all the time now--sort of a modification--I've got a picture--I'll have to work on getting it up.  People do think I've trimmed the beard though--even the wife--but when she found out it was tied, just three little words, no not "I love you", but "Keep it tied!" ;D

Cool...can't wait to see results!

It's a good thing I'm growing this out to keep my face warm during these frigid Central Texas winter days!

Me too.

I have no doubt that what she said!  :*))

Lol Bear, your chin warmer seems a bit redundant! But it still looks good, and that's all that matters haha!

Not the best camera work and I do need some more length on the sides to make it really neat but here it is! Right now I'm using some hairspray to control the sides.  


And this is a picture--from my AB card-- of my Mountain Man when I had hair & it wasn't gray--about 23 years old.

saint c looking good  O0  greatnessinc  I like that are you going to let it grow out abit more ?
I'm going for minimal maintenance (to reduce my shaving time). I prefer to keep my goatee neat and clean. I find though that after a while it starts to irritate me and I end up shaving it off.

Some great beards SlyBear very cool  O0  it sure has grown.   saintc , isn't it funny how color changes in a few years my first beard was dark, but I never had as much hair on my head in my whole life , you somewhat look like Serpico, Al Pachnio . 

greatnessinc , mine is coming out slow but sure.  I am going to keep mine at a med length.  At least that is my thought at this time LOL.  Day at a time.

But don't forget, as time marches on it usually means you will also develop the "ability" to grow enough hair on your ears and eyebrows for a fairly "respectible" combover.  ;D

I wouldn't want to picture you in New York. One time, I thought the weather app on my phone was guessing my shoe size.

That open chin style looks like it would be fairly high maintenance.

I'm originally from New England, so I know all about that.  8) To be honest, I don't mind the cold at all. I actually really like it when it gets cool here. But that never lasts for long.

What drove me south is the snow.  I don't ever think I could move back to the snow belt.

Very impressive Sly Bear.

I've just trimmed my beard short as we have had a run of hot weather (over 95F) and it got annoying.

Ditto. I loved it as a kid, until I had to shovel it, and walk outside in the early morning in areas that haven't been handled in days.

I'm a little jealous of the heat wave you guys had over the border the other week. Although I probably wouldn't have enjoyed the full, ~2 weeks.

I kind of like your beard greatness, I don't think I'd be able to maintain something so short though haha.

that's all the "beard" I can grow now



I always trim it otherwise it would look fuzzy or kinky (please excuse my english)

I really would like to have a full beard once
