    Oh yeah, one more question. I got some major grey happening on my face, how do you women feel about the half grey beard??

    I actually started graying early in life so a little gray really means nothing to me.

    Men with beards are much more attractive than men without beards. All men should have beards, is what I'm saying. Yes, yes, yes.

    That isn't grey. Those are little wisps of awesome. Embrace them.

    Last time I had one someone told me it made me look older.
    I would love to grow it back, fairly easy for me.
    I have many reasons why I like beards.

    The beard according to Urban Dictionary:

    "Beard : Any opposite sex escort taken to an event in an effort to give a homosexaul person the apperance of being out on a date with a person of the opposite sex."

    Sure why not. What could go wrong?

    I love beards. etc.

    Buy him some shea butter / body butter. Comb that stuff through his beard every morning. Not only does it prevent the itchies, it leaves your beard super soft and smelling pretty awesome all day. Pro Tip: Do NOT get the shea butter that smells like buttercream frosting. That just makes you hungry all day.
    beard oil / beard balm works wonders, too.

    I will definitely get at least one of those things. Thank you guys! I don't necessarily dislike the scratchiness of an unconditioned beard, but if it will make him less itchy and maybe more comfortable with the idea, heck yes. :D

    Also, dude asking about grey in beards? I could not care less about grey. Grey stripe, patch, peppered in, 2 solitary grey hairs- don't care (although the stripe does look pretty cool so i care a little more about that but in a positive way ;))

    Grey is fine...(thinking of Kenny Rogers,before plastic surgery). I just don't like the scruffy look,( long beards or unruly hair growing all down a mans neck). Keep it trimmed and it's all good.

    I know some people without beards. They're called women.

    I like my beard.

    My spouse does not.

    She knows that eventually the day will come when it irritates me and I shave it off. In the mean time she lets me have my fun.

    Anyone with a beard is dumb.

    Anyone other than you?? Or including you?? :laugh: :laugh:

    Anyway... a nice short trimmed beard is good, but not Duck Dynasty style.

    Love beards, don't have one cos I'm a girl, that's not saying it's wrong for a girl to have a beard, each to their own and that. But if you can grow a beard do, not a long scraggy wispy thing but a good solid well groomed and trimmed beard si very appealing.

    Best decision I ever made. Go beard. You will have to deal with this though...

    you'll also have to deal with
    "Hey, you must love that duck dynasty show!"

    pro-tip: not everyone that has a beard cares about or has ever seen that show.

    Really short and trim- close to stubble. Long, scraggly ones are super gross.

    I look like a kid without my beard. My wife prefers the whiskers on me. :)

    Maintained beards are great, as well as ones with grey hairs. Makes it even sexier.

    DO IT!!!!! I will not shave or trim or even stand too close to scissors for the first full year after I retire from the military. I may never shave or trim again after that day.

    Old bikers don't go grey, they just add more chrome. :)

    I think its settled at this point that a beard is mandatory to all self respecting men

    My husband grew one when we moved to Texas last year.

    I love it.

    It took a bit to fill in. Grew in a bit patchy. But it looks amazing now. And he keeps it fairly short.

    Love it! It's very sexy and also sophisticated. My own husband, when he wears one, has patches of grey in it so that could be why I like it.

    if you've got a specific lady in your life, pick her brain haha. We've all got different preferences.

    I'm not a beard person, I think full on beards just look strange on so many people. But scruffy men in the pre-beard stage are my kryptonite .

    i enjoy not shaving, personally. I don't even shave with a razor to shape the beard. all clippers.

    personally, I could not care less if you have a beard or not. but it seems the ladies like it, so that's the direction you might want to go in if you are on the fence.
