Beard as Art & Extreme Sport

As purveyors of all things men grooming, it would be remiss of us not to pay our digital respect to this month’s celebration of the beard in Nashville Tennessee.  It was a month for celebrating the more extreme side of facial follicular expression as hairy-faced gents from across the globe descended on Nashville to find out just who sported the fairest beard of them all.

From the Fu Manchu to the handlebar, the goatee to the moustache, from all observations, the outrageous reigned supreme at the National Beard and Moustache Championships .

Whether for beard inspiration or just for the sheer quirkiness of it, check out this album from photographer Greg Anderson who managed to capture what we’re sure you’ll agree are some fairly fine fellows with mighty-fine faces.
