I'm currently a student, so I've caught myself not shaving as often as I normally would (Not at all if the GF's out of town), and I've found that the "neckbeard" is an itchy nuisance. Not only that, but it also reduces the chances of getting any of the "normal" jobs, as bosses tend to see a neckbeard as an indication of sloth.Adultism said:
My advice is thus; get rid of it before every job interview, and every time it's long enough to itch otherwise. Good luck in your search
This, although I keep it trimmed even further up the neck than Riker does (think chin strap, really.) I don't know how people can go around with a permanent neck beard; every time I go more than a day or two without shaving (which lets the hair on my neck start to grow) I wind up with irritated patches of skin where the neck beard has been rubbing against non-bearded parts of my skin. It's like sandpaper, and I don't see why anyone would voluntarily keep it. Unless they had enough time to take it from neckbeard to Gandalf beard, anyway.Uncompetative said:<- See AvatarHateren47 said:Nope. I'm rocking a Riker Beard.
The sexiest of beards.
I don't just get neckbeard, I get GRISSLY neckbeard. When my beard gets to be about a week old, it goes a bit ginger and wirey, kinda like a viking, or that old episode of Family Guy where Peter grows a beard with birds in it, just like that. Usually when I'm not working I don't shave, so after say, 2 weeks vacation I'm like Grissly Adams - the beard actually starts to turn on me, gets itchy and jaggy, and eventually becomes self aware.
I have to use clippers before wet shaving when it's like that, otherwise it's bloody agony.

I utterly despise neckbeards. There was this one guy at my school who I was pretty sure believed that he had a pretty rockin' beard despite the fact that it looked roughly like somebody had glued some spare pubic hairs to his face. A neckbeard is either a beard for someone who can't grow a proper beard (in which case they should actually just give up) or a half-assed beard (in which case they should shave or it follow it through to a full beard).
Sometimes, when I'm lazy and I just plain don't care.
Though, when I was trying to grow my beard out, I did make a point to shave my neck.

No, But i find neckbeards to be dirty looking and unsanitary.
EDIT:
but if you like them thats fine, its just an opinion.

I have yet to be able to grow a beard. My family wasn't exactly gifted with facial hair.
Although... When I lasted shaved to get rid of my pathetic mustache and goatee thing that comes in, I did notice a few black hairs of my cheeks. There's hope for me yet.
Oh, and I'd never grow a neck beard if it wasn't at least accompanied by facial hair. But if the day comes where I actually get some facial hair, there were never be a moment without some sort of beard. You bearded folks have no idea how lucky you are.

When I grow it's fucking itchy, that's my alarm for when i need to shave. I can't grow a full beard though, just a goat beard and mustache even though I have chest hair.
