Thanks guys, it feels really good.  I've been Sly now for about 60 days and I think it's a keeper this time.

The grey in my beard was ruining it as it was just looking spidery and horrible. It was looking like I had a big bit of spit in my beard. so I've made a change!

Looks good, Beardbald.

The gray was the major reason I decided to shave mine back down to just the goat. I wonder what it is about the graying that causes the follicles to change texture and thickness as well.

What did you do, Simon? Color it or just trim out the grey?

Looks good, Simon.  In case you did not know, my beard is colored as well.  Mine is almost completely white now.

I wonder what it is about the graying that causes the follicles to change texture and thickness as well.

From the Interwebs:

Quote
Gray hair is different from pigmented hair in a few key ways, explains the University of Maryland Medical Center. Because it contains little to no melanin, gray hair is thinner and more fragile than pigmented hair. Gray hair also has a thinner cuticle than pigmented hair, which means its outer layer is easily damaged and dehydrated, making gray hair coarse and kinky.
