Flower Beards

Several months ago a gentleman named Pierce Thiot was attending a family party. And his whitty mother asked the grandkids to show off their talents. Mr. Thiot did not want to be excluded from the festivities so he began seeing how many pens he could fit in his beard. The kids thought it was funny, and I'm sure his mother was more than proud! 

But the idea of putting wacky things in his beard did not end there. He began a Tumblr (and later Instagram, Pinterest, etc) called "WillitBeard?" Where he put various things in his beards and his photographer wife would take pictures. You can even go onto his Tumblr and request him to put things in his beard. Interesting, right?

It is well known that I love a good beard. I find them to be one of the most attractive things on the right man. Adds a nice amount of ... ruggedness?  I don't know. 

Pierce Thiot's "WillItBeard" has what I assume started another trend the "Flower Beards" trend. Now I am not going to complain about it. I think that it is actually kind of neat. (Wish I had a friend with a beard, haha!). But these guys of varying beard stages, from stubble, to Santa Clause, and ZZ Top beards. 

I honestly really like this trend. I hope it sticks around. When I saw someone post about it I thought that it was maybe just an odd thing a few guys had done. But no! There are hundreds of photographs on Pinterest and Google of guys with Flower Beards. Huh.

And, I don't know about you but the guy on the top left, yum. His beard is very well groomed. I thought he deserved a cheesy heart.

Anyway, what's your thoughts on this flower beards? My mom wondered how many of them had gotten stung! Haha. Do you like it? Is it too weird?
