I regret to inform you, that today... I have shaved off my Fest beard. I know it's heartbreaking but it just wasn't a full beard and quite frankly I was ashamed. If anyone has any tips to get a full beard before the Fest I would greatly appreciate it and honorably grow back my Fest beard.

I'm actually getting this for the Fest due to my barren facial hair.

Pony up bitch!

I shaved a week ago not realizing i was missing out on the Fest beardage. I'm now gonna do my best to get my chin back into Fest gear. It'll probably be pretty pathetic, but i don't want to be left out, especially since i usually have a beard about 10 months out of the year.
