I need to trim my beard and shave my head. I don't like getting hair in my mouth, ears, or nose.

This post is for casual conversation if you don’t feel like making a post of your own.

I need to trim as well, but am trying to deal with it extra shaggy so I can hopefully fix the top line when it does get trimmed. One side is higher than the other. Even with all this, it's going to be messy this year I think before it gets long enough to go into the braid with the rest of the long. I'm also chewing in the mustache a lot since ive let the facial go overgrown as well so the head doesn't look too out of sorts being so long.
