I have the meanest beard because it is rap music-cosplay related. Once upon a time I was drinking at the bar after the concert one of my fav rapper - Tede with my friends and then i turned around and I saw about 40 people waiting for me to give them an autograph or take selfies, while Tede was standing 10 meters near me and getting none of this. Crazy experience. |

December 2015 I started to grow beard, I just finished with my girl because she had been unfaithful for several years. I wanted a new life a new start, and the beard has changed my life. Now I have four children, a big beard and I have better self-esteem. I am feeling like a new person. Because of my beard I have my new life, I have found many new friends and have had many cool experiences. |

I started to grow a beard because I got out of the military. I keep the beard because I enjoy what the beard community does for other people. I enjoy helping others and changing lives. Being part of the beard community and seeing all the good we do and love we have for one another is heart warming. It's something that a lot of people do not get to experience or never try to. I thank my beard and bearded family for who I am today and what I've done. |

I may not have the meanest beard but what you can find in my beard is respect in every strand. I've not been clean shaven for a long time. I started to really grow my beard after being introduced to iBeardclub - Lee Andrews (aka) "TheBMG". The bearding community really opened my eyes that there truly is respect and kindness still in humanity. |

Lee Baldwin deserves the win!! His beard is glorious and so soft! His heart is even softer – he may look like a tough-guy, but he’s the best person and always have the back of his friends. <3
