Tags : nightmare, clean shaven

A lot of us seem to have had this nightmare.
I've had it 3-5 times so far (about 150 days of being bearded)

Have you had the nightmare of being clean shaven? (Result)

I would usually interpret such dreams as being related to someone close to you that criticizes or resents your facial hair, and the sensitivity we have towards that. Best to check ourselves when waking up indeed.

Don't you think it's (if at all!) rather connected to critique towards yourself or an assault of your personal freedom than directly a critique to your facial hair?

I voted no, haven't had any nightmares, but I do recoil a bit when I see non-bearded photos of me taken before I began growing almost a year ago.

Usually it's not just about being clean shaven, but actually losing my beard in some sort of accident, a scary thought.

It's always some sort of scare-realization
I see myself in the mirror and am clean shaven and freak out, or I wake up touch my face, feel clean skin and freak out
(dreams where you dream to wake up are a biatch, mostly)

i guess for me beard is not so important that loosing it dreams would end up touching it after waking up.i do have seen myself losing legs,hands,rotting body or jaw while sleeping.that really scares me sometimes.

Once or twice I've had a nightmare of being cleanshaven. Most annoying it was to experience the frustration without knowing than one was just having a nightmare.

I can't really say that being clean shaven would be a "nightmare" for me. There are several events in my life that I will be clean shaven for (wedding, parents funeral, jobs). But usually in my dreams, I'm bearded.

I've never had that nightmare.
In my experience, when I'm honest to myself, I always know what my dreams are about. It's just that sometimes I need to take a few deep breaths and brace myself before daring to face the issue giving rise to the dream.

My educated guess is that your nightmare about being clean shaven is about loss of masculinity. Perhaps in the form of authority.

@Beardedteen
it's not that clean shaven is a nightmare in itself, but having the beard shaven against your will is

@thevman
yeah you're right, the dream means being stripped of authority or having things happen to me against my will (e.g. I'm not in control)

my dreams' meaning is just sometimes clear to me, not always

I haven't had nightmares about being clean shaven but I have had awesome dreams about a bigger beard, which was fun.

I can never tell if i'm bearded or not in my dreams. Every dream I've ever had was in the first person and I never looked in any mirrors.

Your mind has to be stronger than your beard growth to actually be able to grow one.

Since I've reached my goal of the yeard I haven't once had a shaven nightmare.
It wouldn't be such a big deal anymore, I know that I can easily regrow.
