Hello, bearded ones.  Well, this is day #19 of no shaving, trimming, etc.  Just letting it go.  I have worked some Jojoba oil into this to keep my fair skin from suffering much.  I really appreciate this beard forum--all the tips, encouragement, etc.    I'm excited to see what will come of this.  Again, I'm definitely not shaving until the end of May and then I'll take an honest evaluation of whatever my beard is.  If I'm liking what I see it will be staying and going much larger, if possible. 

My rather bare cheek areas are actually starting to have a lot of very blonde hairs.  Many are starting to come in from the moustache to the cheeks.  I think that will look nice when filled in.  I'm hoping the mustache will keep moving along good so that I can get it to hang down where I have virtually no hair down to the goatee.  Any thoughts?
