Dude, you have an awesome beard, i'm really jeleus in a good way. I'm tryng to grow my first beard myself, and i can relate with the nicknames, my uncle sayd i look like someone wanting to join ISIS, big foot and hagrid (i'm tall as hell), but listen, noone can tell you how to look like, it's your own choice. You look great, you beard really suits you and i hope you keep it for the sake of all of us who still can't grow one as full as yours. Don't listen to bad critiscism, it's not worth it!! Keep it going, keep it growing brow, you're doing great.
