Some men have faces quite suited for a beard, even though when reaching “a certain age” it can actually make them look older than they are. One of my friends has sported a beard for most of his life- here we are in 1978…..

and in 2012

I meant to take a few pix of my son and his beard today and then I forgot. But I love your pictures. Love the “old-new” set 🙂

Cool story. I grew first beard in 1978. It’s had various shapes and lengths since but I’ve never been ‘hairless’ since. If I were to shave it off, my wife would not recognize me.

Yes, the first photo was at my 21st birthday party, but we know each other since I was 15. The other taken in Dunkin Donuts where we try to grab a coffee every couple of months 🙂
