Beard Fact:

Hello people its your moms favorite bearded gent.....
Back to just share with you a random Beard Fact:

Beards have been regarded as emblems of wisdom: Philosophers were always bearded (Socrates, Marcus Aurelius, Hadrian, Shakespeare and many more; google it I'm not making this stuff up). “Lose your beard,” it was said, “ and you lose your soul.” Who would Jupiter, King of the Gods, be without a beard? Beards hide the unhandsome looks of men with no chins, or the man who’s been kicked in the face by a horse or better yet ran over his face by a horse. In the Reign of Queen Anne(1702-1707), the wig came into fashion and the beard went out. Most of the 18th century, faces were clean-shaven. By the 19th century, small patches of hair began to appear beside men’s ears. Sideburns became common amongst  Naval commanders during the the war in 1812. Which help bring back to life  men wearing facial hair.
