I unleashed my beard today so that I could dye the roots and tie it back up. It was the first time in 6 weeks!:I accidently mixed up the entire bottle of dye when I had intended just to use a little bit for the roots. Oops. This time I got the light brown instead of the blonde that I used the other week. The blonde did absolutely nothing. This is it after I colored it, and it measured 28" on the chin. I was gradually letting the rest get longer and about a year ago I stopped trimming altogether so I could have a terminal length beard all around. You can see where the shorter hairs match up at below my shoulder: Then this is it tied back up and with a nice bit of my homemade beard balm:Typically after doing it strays will pop out for a couple days so once I get enough I bind them back up and fasten them in.

I prefer it to grow down rather than out!You look great!Agreed. You've got some great thickness there so it gives you a lot of flexibility with styling. There is something to be said about keeping the sides in check while letting the length grow.

Cheers. After shaving it off last time I have just realised I'm not good when it gets out of control. My beard gets very thick at the sides and looks scruffy. I want to go longer but this time taking my time to grow the beard I want.
Once when my goatee was around 8" or so I went to a dress up Old Fart birthday party where I dressed up as an old fart. I "bleached" my goatee with talcum powder and it worked great, so any future Santas out there should consider it instead of bleach. I did it before using wax and oil so I don't know if that would make things better or worse.
I agree that beard just gets better and better with the thickness, texture, and color. It's basically a flawless beard-envy generating beard!
