When @gpseymour shaved his beard earlier in the pandemic, I told him I was glad he did it at home, in my presence. Otherwise, I would have decided he was a stranger who had broken into my house and whacked him on the head with the cast iron pan.
I'm getting used to it. I don't think I'll ever shave daily, but having short or no facial hair makes wearing a mask more comfortable.

You would have taken pictures, right?

Not leaving my house...

Staying away from friends.....

Missing someone's birthday party....

What used to be childhood punishments have become old guys survival tactics.

Young(er) looking man right there.:)
Most of my grey is in my beard, so I do look younger without it. I've actually gotten used to seeing my face again (was odd seeing it in my streaming feed and videos for a while). I may go back to my practice (from my 20's) of shaving a few times a year.

Before my shower, and bad lighting. Anything not absolutely stunning about this is due to those two factors.

My wife made me shave my goatee last week...

Now she's having me grow a beard back. I asked, "couldn't I have just filled it in?"

She said "It doesn't work that way."

You can't have women committed just because they're crazy. There wouldn't be enough room.

I just got in from cutting hay for the 2nd day. We will for sure break a record for 2nd cut this year, somewhere north of 300 rolls. I am guessing it will take 2 more days to cut everything.

I got used to shaving nearly everyday and now a couple days growth just feels weird. It would be an improvement to hide this mug.

Prior to March, I hadn't shaved regularly since probably 2000.
Only time in my life where I shaved regularly was in the military. I had a beard in the 80s in high school, and I grew a beard pretty much right after I separated from the USAF. Even now, I really only shaved once, and am just keeping the beard very short. Like Buka's goatee up there.

I do shave my head every couple days, though.

I hate shaving. Had to shave every day working. Had to shave off my beard when I became a cop, which sucks when you're fighting in the dojo. Used to put a touch of Vaseline on my beard, add some sweat and most punches to the jawline and chin just slide off.

I so enjoy not shaving now! Almost as much as not working. Almost. ;)

I couldn’t grow a beard in HS. At 22 I grew it the first time, and it was barely a beard. Hirsute is not a word often used to describe me.
