I cycle on and off of having a beard, but I've kept it off since taking my current job.

Anyways, I'm now working from home like most of America and not going to shave once. Currently in the "strung out drunk homeless guy" stage of beard growth.

I bet the razor industry is going to be hurting.

I always keep a beard, but I'm also not trimming until I go back to work

My wife is thrilled

I wish I was starting with one as well. I'd love to grow a duck dynasty beard once in my life Something that would otherwise be very "career limiting" in my corporate profession.

I am not shaving my head or my fave, I have been shaving my head since 2001, the area of baldness on top my head now that my hair is growing is depressing. Lol

Not me. Still sticking to my routine of waking up, showering, and shaving everyday. I refuse to look like the ‘work from home’ loser.

Well almost everyone has to do it (WFH), so I don't know why you're insecure about it

And you can still shower and get dressed for the day.

I just loathe shaving anyway though, maybe I'm in the minority.

In other words...

You can't grow a beard.

The virus, along with this morning's eggs, can live in a beard for about 8 years. I'm shaving and wasting no eggs.

I never shave with a razor but I don't grow a long beard either. I usually just trim it up with clippers and a 1 guard or no guard.

I haven't done this in a week so far and I'm realizing how much more grey I am now.

Same here but my beard sucks and is patchy.

I have pube cheeks but I’m not shaving it until it’s announced I can go back to work.

Not the beard so much but I am growing my hair out for the first time in my life. May rock a mullet before it's all said and done

I shaved mine off actually

1) CDC recommended it
2) I hadn't shaved it off on years, developed a bad habit of pulling on my beard and had a bald spot from it. 3)this should retrain that behavioe.

I would get rid of facial hair

We are still trying to learn why men have a poorer prognosis than women with this illness.

Could it be men smoke and drink more?
The extra X chromosome women have defers some sort of small immunity?

Or could it be as simple as male facial hair traps a more virulent form of the virus?

We don’t know. But as facial hair doesn’t look good and traps particles closer to the face, I would recommend getting rid of it.
