• Looks good Mark, once you get past the itchy stage it is definitely worth it if that's what you want!

• Looking more handsome with the beard Mark. You are lucky to have a choice between bearded and clean shaven.

• BBCMark,
  
  you are certainly en route with your beard. As others have said here, if you are keen, there's another 1-2 months before you get a proper idea of the final look.
  
  For instance, it took about 3 months to go from clean shaven to the beard you see in my profile pic.

• I think bald and bearded looks very "manly" and rugged. I grow a beard in the winter months and shave it come spring.

• no beard here but I do have a goatee under my chin and a sole patch under my lip

  It looks great - -keep growing  - - - It sure goes with our bald heads  - -Nothing like a BALDIE with a BEARD.

  I believe the average growth rate is 1/4 to 1/2" per month, so it's at least 6 months.  Remember too that all parts of the beard don't necessarily grow at the same rate--so it could take some time to get the mature look in the picture.  Worth it though--you've got to do that at least once in your life, preferably while young so you can determine if you want to sport the look a lot.

• Looking good Mark. Stick with it. Good looking dome too!
  
  Wish my beard would grow in a little thicker. I have a Van Dyke thatI really like.

• Mark,
  
  Good luck with the beard.  If I started 20 years ago, I still wouldn't have a beard like the one in the picture!
