Well it's been a slow week. I have barely grown any more hair and it's becoming frustrating. It's like I am having a facial hair drought. Here are the image updates:

The itching is almost unbearable. I have started using after shave lotion on my face to sooth it, but I still find myself idly itching at times. MUST... LET... IT... GROW!
It has come to my attention there is a name attached to what I am doing. I am currently not shaving for several weeks in order to grow out a beard. During this time, I will not be cutting my hair either. A certain unnamed friend (see above file photo) has told me this is called the 'Dirty Man Challenge'. Such an annotation is correct in the sense that it is a challenge of manliness. However, calling it the 'Dirty Man Challenge' is not accurate.
I want to make something clear: Men with beards are manlier than others without. The term is 'rugged' not dirty. There's a real difference. Below is the face of my rugged self:
As you can see, I am rugged not dirty. I believe the certain friend who used the term is only jealous because his Dutchness prevents him from growing a respectable beard. When he gorws a beard, it looks like an ill-seeded cornfield.
I will continue to grow this beard despite criticisms by jealous people and it will be a great robust beard of epic proportions.
