Sir, you have a great beard. You look like one of my professors. I don't know if I am allowed to post his picture without permission, but if you are curious you can google Boris Aranov. Am going to echo Tom's comments - gray is evenly distributed and makes your beard look very distinguished. All the best for your 5/6 inch goal.

Thank you for your kind words.  I did do a google search for Professor Aranov, and I appreciate the compliment, he has an outstanding beard as well! And as for the gray up close it doesnt look as evenly distributed, however that said I like it none the less.
