/fit/´s toughts on beard?

I´m considering growing a beard, only this time aiming for something really big (see pic).

Pros, cons, recommendations ?

Frank Beard was the drummer in ZZ Top.
He didn't even have a beard.

having a beard is not health related

I stopped shaving clean on the spring of 2005. Keeping my beard at 4-5 inches.

Pros:
Useful in cold weather. And it gets cold here. Really cold.
Covers up anything you wouldn't want others to see on your face.
No more shaving, in-grown hairs, etc.
It is manly, can't argue with that.

Cons:
People will call you Jesus.
Women will be reluctant to kiss you, it stings, or so I'm told.
I went to Spain this summer. Might be just me, but it's uncomfortable as fuck in that weather.
Food and drinks get stuck in it.
Washing it is a bitch. It's like, well, having a head full of hair on your face.
Face it, it's "unusual", so it might limit your career choices. I'm yet to see a banker that has a beard like Gandalf's.

With that said, it's somehow worth it anyway. At least I like it. If you decide to go through with it you should know that it WILL look like shit for a month or so. It's like an initiation rite. Also, it WILL itch... For a month or so. Your skin will get used to it and stop itching after a while. Other than that you just have to wait. There's nothing you can do to make it grow faster/thicker, it's all in your genes. And why did you post this in /fit/? Wouldn't /fa/ggots be more helpful with this?

Pic not me, but obviously related. That man is made of awesome music and beard.
