Week 11 then - I've started trimming just a few stray single hairs here and there as they now stick out a bit further as they're longer. Surprising what just nippng out some stragglies does for a beard. I'm only trimming them though, not wanting to lose too much growth in one hit and I'm not trying to shape the beard at all. I quite like it as it is.
Up until now its been all about grow grow growing, but now I feel I almost have a result, I can't resist fiddling with it a bit. Oh and I instagrammed my shots this week to try and make them a bit clearer, as I'm doing this at night with no natural light and using flash is terrible. Oh and there's no wax on the stache, so it's a wee bit fluffy!

Over all I feel its totally a part of me now and I feel so much better with it than without it. I don't know if its true, but I'm noticing many more bearded guys around town. I keep guessing how far on they are the way my wife used to do whenever we walked past pregnant women! and judging their neckline or guessing the style they're after. All a bit obsessive really. It's a bit like when I had a VW Beetle, suddenly started seeing them everywhere.

Anyway, thoroughly enjoying it. Keep growing gents.
