SnappyJB - Thank you. I feel it is a bit scruffy but still professional looking. I really want to grow on. I have never gone to three months before.

Tom - Thanks! I feel you are right. She is not the kind of person you can talk too and be receptive. She is very closed minded about anything. I am going to continue to grow as there is nothing in the company appearance guidelines that say I can't.

IrishDan - thanks buddy. You speak the truth and that is what I am going to do. Ignorance can be bliss.

Triibeard - thank you man. This is why I come here. To get great advice and support from people rocking fantastic beards. Yours being on of them and I don't think I will be auditioning for Scooby Doo the musical anytime soon. Lol

BBinDC - thank you and that is the plan.

Gato - great advice, thank you. It's not that she has outright said for me to trim, but she has been passively aggressive in suggesting. You know, little snide comments and such. What I really need is a new career. Banking is just not working for me anymore.

Bmwkiz - thanks for the tips. What is the name of the pomade that you are using. I have tried a few, but they are either too hard and crispy or greasy with little hold. I am afraid I am not to good at know what works.

Thank you to everyone. Such a great group of guys on here that always make me feel like I belong. I don't have any bearded friends except for the guys on here. I think it would make a difference if I did.

I have decided to trim just the edges and taper it down to the neck. I think this will help disguise some of the length and eliminate any fuzziness. I will post some pictures when I do it, which will probably be today.

Cheers, Rabbit.

My beard thread:  Rabbit's Beard Adventure


I have a terrible feeling that, because I am wearing a beard and sitting in the back of the theater, you expect me to tell you the truth about something?  These are cheap seats, not Mt. Sinai.
