Beard Particles and Facial Hair Electrons

I've been a little (a lot) obsessed with Brooklyn's own Pearl and the Beard after meeting them and seeing them folk out for the first time... which resulted in the darling post 10Qs with Pearl and the Beard

And it's not just Jeremy's fantastically growing chin mane (which is totally awesome by the way)...

It's also the music, and lyrics, and the sound, and stopmping, and also sighs, oh did i mention the music? So, check out the troupe's latest video below, it's for 'Prodigal Daughter.' The kid is so cute, it'll make you forget that Jeremy's beard does not make an appearance.

NOTE: Pearl and the Beard are hitting the stage at Music Hall of Williamsburg on Thursday 2/16. Click over to their site for ticketing info.

Valentine's Day: Feel the Beard!

In a recession economy, what better way to tell your partner how much you adore them than by committing yourself day & night to the art of facial hair awesomeness in the name of love? Ladies - imagine being greeted not with a bouquet of typical flowers, but showered by scruff that slowly blossoms into something greater - something more meaningful (and green friendly).  Your partner proudly confesses to the world - openly & through physical restraint of shaving - that he's "growing this for you." You get to watch (with awe and wonder) how his face begins to express his dedication to both the beard & yours truly.  That's the recent scenario (we said it better though) raised by PhillyBurbs today - and we almost fully agreed with the article up until the following:

I think beards are sexy. Well, maybe I should rephrase. Facial hair is sexy. Full-blown beards can be kind of hit-and-miss.

No way!  Full-blown beards are the balls to the walls types - the men that throw caution and razors to the wind - the kind that obviously take their love for facial hair (and the reasoning for their commitment to it) very seriously.... 365-days-a-year-seriously!  So lay off the big beards - and expand your horizons past chin fuzz.  If you think that is fun *wink wink* imagine the bigger possibilities.  (Ahem)
