Last year, my son (“Jim” / James) and I were binge-ing on the “Vikings” series on the History Channel. On 18 April 2018, we agreed to grow our beards out for one full year to see what they would look like and if they would be long enough to “viking braid”. (Yeah, I know, very mature…) My son is working on the 18th, so he came by today for a selfie. (See below…) | |
We’ve concluded our beards are not really long enough to properly braid. Jim says his wife can braid his, but they are very short braids. I think I would need at least another year to have a decent shot with mine. My Hil hates my full-out beard, so I doubt it will survive her return (this Sunday) from her family visit to Liverpool. I don’t know if I’m going to miss it (the beard) or not. It’s relaxing to stroke, but annoying when it catches in your zippers (coats and sweaters). Ah, well, life is full of trade-offs… | |

Fear The Beards
April 15, 2019 by kmabarrett
Like the beards😉yeah it would be cool to have one long enough to plait. My ex grows dreadlocks in his.. part beard oil, part soup.
Hi BiB,
Thanks for the support (visits) and for leaving a comment!
LoL!! Soup? That’s a new one for me. Are you kidding or being serious? If serious, why soup and what kind? My son uses “real” beard oil (and he’s given me some), but most of the time I use coconut oil. (I like the smell.) I doubt if the beard will survive the weekend. As I mentioned, my wife is not a fan.

When my ex gets soup or similar in his beard he says it’s feeding the dreadlocks… it’s a joke really 😉
LoL! That’s what I thought, but you never know… That’s why I thought to check. (My own beard prefers toast crumbs for “after meals”.)
