When Alex accidentally grew a beard five years ago (he had the flu), I told him he looked rugged and handsome. Surprised, he said I was the only woman he knew who actually liked beards. But since then, beards have blown up in a huge way. For the past few years, it has seemed as if every guy—famous or otherwise—has grown a beard. Do you agree?But last week, the Guardian ran an article asking, "Have we reached peak beard?" Apparently, they have gone mainstream and now might be on the wane.
So, I'm curious: Do you still like beards? Are you sick of them? Do you just want to see a guy's actual face for once? I'm still a super fan. Over the past five years, Alex has sometimes considered shaving, but I insist he never does!
P.S. Before and after.
