If you have to ask, go shave.
For the curious, without beards
BeardLife is a blog to raise awareness about how awesome it is to have a Beard.
Grow one, and become a man.
Chances are you’ll never want to shave again.
Dear MR. BG,
I think beards are cool too, but i feel as if you are missing a big part of beard culture on your beard blog…the wilderness/outdoor beard. I mean, I know beards are cool when you combine them with cars, but whatever happened to the OB? or the mythical beard founded by the outdoor man? Travel beards, adventure beards, beards on hikes, and beards on bikes aren’t being held to the high degree that they deserve. Im just sayin, you should look into it. Beards are trophies, and all kinds should be displayed in your trophy case of a blog.
Love,
Dirk Beardenhorst
As a burly, bearded man, I felt like an outcast in the world of girly, pastel-shirt-wearing, collar-popping douchebags who build high-performance cars these days. No longer! There is hope for the world yet.
I commend you sir!!!!
I, too, am a recent convert to the bearded life, and although I catch alot of flak for being hairy, I’m not gonna go back to shaving, just cuz some douche-bag at work thinks I look unprofessional. Fuck that.
Thanks for putting together such an important blog. Good work!
This is definitely the best blog I’ve ever come across. I am a lady, and I prefer a bearded man to a clean shaven one. I’ve been noticing recently that more and more ladies are into the beard look. I love how every time I look at my fiance I see a burly manly man instead of some little sissy boy. Beards just make you fellas better. Its all about the mountain man look, aka Jeremiah Johnson!
And so I commend you good sir! Keep up the awesome work. Together we can make the whole world love beards.
I’ve had my beard for 2 months now, and its starting to itch. Yesterday, i thought about cutting…
I stood by the mirror and stared at myself staring back at me as i was staring at myself in the mirror. I wondered if it would be worth it. Cutting. It seemed like the easy way out, like the way to do it. I wondered if i would stop itching. But then I thought, what about my BBBG, what will he think of me? What will the bearded community think of me? Am i suited for the beard life? maybe…maybe not…maybe i should go fuck myself…but maybe not
::long pause::
Then i stood and stared again. The gaze on my face like that of a Woolly Mammoth trekking its way through an arctic blizzard, determined, stern, squinty. I wondered what a life without the soft tickle from a gentle touch would be like, what water on my skin would be feel like. Torn inside, the struggle continued.
I was mad. Upset, that my adventure beard plea had still not been answered. I planned on growing. My mission across the country to promote youth education was of unimportance…b.c i wasn’t driving a car with a loud exhaust pipe with a beard life sticker on the window with banking ability that make girls squeal during sharp turns. No. I drive a bicycle, and no one appreciated that… The thought of cutting crept into my thoughts once again.
I’m going to go now. I don’t know where this road will take me.. but that staring contest is waiting for me. whoever loses has to wear a mustache for a month, maybe ill make a blog about it. We’ll see..

I am wanting to purchase two beard life stickers. If you could let me know the colors and the price.
Thanks
beards are awesome.
I will continue on my quest for more beard.
There should be pictures of beared women. I’m just saying.
They do exist.
