A man's beard is a wonderful thing. Some people grow one just because they can. Others have been struggling for years, only to be welcomed one day by a decent beard. Some men will wait till their much older to grow a beard, while others will grow just in spite of an ex-girlfriend. All in all, a beard represents much more than some hair on a face. It signifies wisdom, independence, and maturity. But with great beard, comes great responsibility and at times, we all have to deal with these 9 problems.
1. “Can I touch it?”
It never fails, it doesn’t matter if their male, female, old, or young, everyone still wants to touch your beard.

2. “Why Don’t You Shave?”
The haters are always gonna hate and this goes with beards too.
3. Eating Your Beard
Sometimes you’re thinking about something and you realize that for the last 5 minutes you’ve been subconsciously eating your beard.
4. “Can I Put Flowers In It?”
It’s happened to me. More than once.
5. “Hey, you look just like (Insert Bearded Man here).
Whether it’s Duck Dynasty, Gandalf, or someone’s grandfather, if you have a beard, you will be referred to as someone else with a majestic beard.
6. “You Look So Much Older”
Yes, I’m 20 years old. If I look like I’m in my early 40’s because of facial hair then so be it. At least I also have the wisdom to back it up.
7. You can’t get used to your baby face anymore
Every once in a while you decide to shave and it’s really hard to look at yourself in the mirror again. It’s not that you look to young, it’s just the fact that your beard’s a part of your identity and it feels like something’s missing.
8. Shampoo or Body Wash?
But really? My face is covered in hair, which one is more beneficial???
9. Frozen Beard
It’s winter time, you take a shower and you forget to dry your beard. If you’re outside too long, this can be a big dilemma!
10. We may have 99 problems, but having a beard is not one of them.
Our beard is a sign of maturity, wisdom and independence. We grow them because we want to and it becomes a part of who we are. Sometimes it’s because we think it’s stupid to have to shave every day, other times we just like how it looks. We may have a lot of issues with it, but our issue will never be the beard itself.
