Golden Beard

I was SO excited to see this beard last night that I almost forgot about the heated verbal tirade this guy went on last year while chewing out some slackers on set. However, hearing him get choked up towards the end of his acceptance speech last night, made any angry memories I may have been harboring towards him vanish into thin air. Let's hope his beard sticks around though!

Gangster Beard

Another Winner from my main squeeze Galifianakis.
God, you're brilliant, and I'm not talkin' bout you, Kanye.

Logo Beard

With words pouring freely out of his toilet bowl, designer Aaron Draplin talks about the good, the bad, and the mostly ugly. Logo master, design guy, OG shredder mcshred, Draplin shared his work with his alma mater and can be found talking quite candidly here on everything BUT beards. Draplin: for the future - less talk, more beard, uh-k? ah-k.

Bandana Beard

Seth Avett, of the incredible Avett Brothers, appears here as candid and raw as they come. The Avett Brothers, formed back in 2000, started writing and playing acoustic music as a side project of Seth's other band Nemo. Their music strikes a perfect balance between heartthrob and heartache and brought me to tears more than once during their performance I witnessed at the Newport Folk Festival this year. Been feeding the Avett addiction ever since. Beard or no beard, their talent and chemistry are self evident. Seth - I'll read your lyrics back to you anytime. Just kick that other girl out of the car first, ok?

Kung Fu Pigeon Beard

Recently discovered this gem of a man through a new project launched by fashion brand French Connection. Glad to see more fashion labels are allowing their models to toss out the wax sessions in favor of a more natural, feral, hairy heaven approach. As if the visuals in this campaign wouldn't be enough to get your heart racing, turns out the campaign copy in these is EVEN BETTER. Way to go Fallon London! This is a win win win in my beard book.

Jail Beard

Oh profesh athletes, some things just never change. I like where you're going with the "One Love" tee on your way into court, but do you really think the judge won't see through that? Mo' Money Mo' Problems still rings true, just keep your beard in lockup okay? If its not even fiercer when you get out, I'm gunna personally hunt you down and slap you. And you don't want that.

Raging Waterfall Beard

Painter Jim Warren has finally managed to capture the imagery that's constantly in my brain:

His mountain unicorn painting is pretty legit as well.
