I can grow a beard great... I just can't grow hair on top of my head to save my life.   I'll trade you!

Yeah I've had mine going for over a month and it is just now starting to look vaguely acceptable. I don't think it will ever be very good, apparently I can only do the moustache/goatee part well.

Maybe we can do a half trade. I take thinning shears to my head every few months because it is so thick.

I can grow a great beard. Unfortunately since I was about 30 it comes in snowy white like Santa.  It makes me look ancient.

I could sponsor kids in Locks of Love. Also get a pretty decent beard, if not as full as I'd want on the sides.

I have long scraggily hair now, with a nice shiny spot on top. Somewhere between Kim Mitchel and Jim Ignitowski.

My goatee took about three years to grow in to a reasonable thickness, so now it will never be removed regardless of current fashion. I try growing the rest of my beard in at playoff times, but it's usually a dismal failure.

Chest hair? I have three.

I think that's one more than me.

Really this current beard experiment is teaching me why all those pictures of ancient Celts all have big bushy mustaches but no beards. Apparently we just suck at beards.

Color yourselves lucky. I have to shave constantly and my hair grows like a fucking weed. Look like a damn mountain man in a month if I'm not careful.

I remember as a pubescent boy fervently wishing I had a reason to shave every day. Now I am tempted to buy one of those infomercial gadgets that kills hair or whatever. Luckily I am not required to be clean shaven for work, so I shave about twice a week (face and head). If I could knock that down to once a month and not get overly hairy I would be thrilled.

Be happy it comes in uniform white.  Whenever I let mine grow, I end up with damn near every naturally occuring colour known to stylists.  Half the time it looks like i have the mange or something, patches of different colours everywhere.

I have some hefty regressive Saxon genetics going on and my beard starts ginger and goes through different stages of blond until it hits pure white.

Somewhat funny story. At a stuck-up place I used to consult for I had a local manager talk to me about adhering to corporate culture (i.e. - my grooming habits). My problem is that I have 5'oclock shadow before lunch and I would start working 2 hours before official starting time.

... so count your blessings. As I am getting older (and my beard getting denser) I don't even consider working for a company where clean-shaven look is mandatory. Just too much hassle.

This is a time thing for many. As was stated in my 30's I had very sparce chest hair and a summer beard (some over here, some over there). I am a few months from 60 now and I got hair. I got hair growing out of my nose, my ears. And body hair no problem. Top of the head forget about it. I kept some (not a lot but not a crome dome ) but that is leaving now. Its male pattern baldness. It means your a funtional male. Wear it with pride and snear at the pink metrosexuals.

I started with nothing, and I still have most of it

I'm not a complete idiot... Some parts are still on backorder.

Kind of wish I could grow a functional beard...unfortunately the growth isn't dense enough, the follicles are thick so it just ends up being prickly, and it doesn't really grow that long.

Also I can't really have one in my job, so there's that.
