#HandyHubby Loses the Beard After 6+ Years
Saturday, February 26, 2011 Posted by Aleksandra Nearing
Adam's had a beard since after we got married in 2004. Since then he's only shaved it twice while we were at the beach and the snorkeling mask would not stick well to a hairy face. Here he is before. I know, I know, he's a cutie. Don't get too jealous.
Lily took an interest in the task. Adam looked a little apprehensive at a 3 year old wielding a razor, so I took over.
Here is the clean-shaven man I love. He looks like a baby! I feel like I'm robbing the cradle! Can we glue the hair back on?!
I think Lily and I laughed a minute too long, which resulted in the grumpy face below (Adam is hardly EVER grumpy). I mean, can you blame us? It's been 6 years for me and ALL of her life for her. We had to laugh hysterically giggle. We're used to the beard! Hopefully one day soon he will grow it back.

Yikes he looks so young now!

He does look a lot younger and more different than I thought! Good luck with the interviews, Adam!

Wow, what a difference a beard (or the lack of it) makes!

You shaved years off his age. He looks great!

As an outside opinion, I think that he looks better without!

I remember the day my husband first shaved his beard. He looked like a baby too. I much prefer a clean shaven face, as the whiskers always tickled me!

He looks much yonger, better, and more confident. He ll get tons of offers, I bet

WOW! Aleks, you got a hottie hubby under all that hair!!!!
:-)
I made mine do the same about 4 years ago.

My husband does a goatee off and on and it's always a shock when he shaves it. I think Adam looks like a totally different man without it though!

Very Handsome!! My Hubby goes back and forth between a beard and clean shaven!! Love him both ways : )

I have an idea... Let Lily color in a beard and mustache on the weekend with an eye pencil. She will have lots fun and Adam with have his facial hair (sort of)
:) He can thank me later.

Looks like your daughter had a heyday getting to take part in it!
I know how you feel, my husband shaved his goatee twice in nine years. I've told him to never do it again. Makes me feel like I'm with an 18 year old.

He looks like a completely different person...He definitely looks younger! My dad had a beard for many years and I can remember us laughing at him too when he shaved it off. So different.
How are things girl?

My hubs has a nice "aging" beard too and every summer he decides to shave it and we all grimace, haha! While still totally adorable (your hubs is totally adorable) I prefer my hubbie with a beard too!

Your husband rubbed off on mine. Earlier tonight my husband shaved off his goatee. Simply because he wanted a different look, like me and my teenage daughter. My jaw hit the floor. The first thing I thought was "AAAACK, grow it back" while the second thing I thought was "Didn't I just read about something similar happening to Busy Working Mama?!"

He looks good with or without, but he looks a lot younger without. Something for him to think about!! ;)
