Pros:

5 Pros and Cons To Duck Dynasty BeardsNo Shaving/Low Maintenance
Some men appreciate the daily shave while others detest the practice. For those that view shaving as a chore, growing out your beard may be the right choice for you. Also long, flowing beards don’t require trimming or special maintenance. It’s all about personal style.

Masculine
Masculinity is equated with facial hair. Manly men have beards. Beards make a statement that the man is strong, confident, and worldly.

Women
Women tend to be attracted to men with beards. It might have to do with the masculine aura that is being projected or they just want to pet you like their favorite cat. Either way, a beard will scream for attention and that call will be answered.

Health Benefits 
Surprisingly, a beard can keep you healthy. A beard offers protection from the sun, preventing sunburn on at least half of your face. Beards also catch allergens like dust and pollen before they can be breathed in, decreasing allergy symptoms and even asthma. An extra bonus is the warmth the beard provides in cold weather. The beard insulates the face and throat which can help fight off colds.

Hides Imperfections 
I big beard can act as a sort of disguise. Unsightly scars, acne, short chins and bad teeth can be hidden within the sanctuary of follicles, allowing the wearer to feel more confident and improve upon their looks.

Cons:

Stereotypes
A down side to a full beard is that you’re judged on sight. People may automatically assume you are a biker, redneck, or homeless.

Jobs
Stereotypes (see above) may make employment more difficult to find. Current employees growing a beard may also have to contend with company policies and bad first impressions with clients.

At a good company like Certified Credit verification of employment services, they help you feel confident about your most crucial investment of all: people! They offer detailed criminal background checks on a statewide, national, and international level as their screening service is really astoundingly thorough.

Hair Growth Problems
Not everyone’s hair grows in the same way. Growing a beard may prove disappointing to men who have gaps that won’t fill in properly, making the beard look mangy.

Food can get caught in the beard if you are not careful. You must learn what you can and can’t now eat in public…kiss bagels and cream cheese goodbye!

 

 

Itchy
Good news! This one is temporary. Just grit your teeth and soldier through this discomfort. It will be gone in a few weeks and you’ll have a decent beard in the end. Moisturizer is your best friend.

 

Also, if you have the ability to grow a dashingly good beard, you may want to take advantage of it since No-Shave November is in full swing! Consider making a bet with coworkers on who can grow the best beard, or even go with Mo-vember and see who can grow the best moustache!
