When did 3-4 inch long beards become fashionable again?
7-9 years ago? At least in Portland/San Francisco/Williamsburg.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
I've got enough grey in my hair that it's noticeable to people talking to me. When I'm not being lazy about it, I henna it, which turns the grey strands into red highlights. The rest of my hair is too dark for the henna to make much of a difference.

Did hipster beards go mainstream?
They're appearing on people who are on the side of the good guys and who are being presented as competent human beings, not weirdos, so I guess so. I may have reached my "what are these kids doing these days?" point.
(I have to admit I was pleased when said person was killed so I wouldn't have to look at him any more )

when i die, please bake my ashes into a brick and use me to hit fascists.
I do adore Wil Wheaton, but I am not enjoying his recent Mountain Man Beard looks.
Not that what I think of it matters at all. And apparently his (even more awesome) wife doesn't mind it.

I am gonna be a pink or blue tinted haired old lady. TRUE FACT!
As soon as my hair goes all gray/white/silver, it will be ALL PINK.

8-10 years ago in Seattle in the hipster and queer scenes. ("lumbercore" = dressing like a lumberjack but using small-batch, hand-made, artesianal beard grooming products.)

Hipster beards work on almost no one.

Oh, dear. Admire my back to nature coolness, I spend $100 a month to maintain this look (your overpriced hipster maintenance may vary, what do I know, I live in Utah)

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Maybe I somehow grew up in a beard-heavy environment, but that was not a particularly noteworthy beard and did not ping me as hipsterish.
I like my grey, which is kind of sparkly white like fishing line, and my stylist has told me on several occasions that she will not allow me to color it as she loves it. There does seem to be more of it every time I get my hair cut (I don't look in mirrors much in my daily life) and I'm ambivalent about that.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift
I'm 80% grey; I'm not ready to be that gray, so I faithfully color it every 4-6 weeks. When I am ready, it will be a beautiful silver grey.
The Caps lost in OT in Game 7. To the fucking Rangers. I'm heartbroken. They blew a 3-1 lead... again. The last time they made it out of the second round was in 1998 when they actually went to the Finals. I don't know why I expected this year to be different. Now my loyalties are no longer divided. Go Blackhawks!

I look more rad than Lutheranism
I *say* that I'm ready for some silver/white, and I even mean it (or believe that I mean it)...but I suspect that when they finally show up, I'll be all "NOT READY!" (And I seriously don't know why I have zero silver hairs yet, when my younger brother is already pretty damn silver.)
small-batch, hand-made, artesianal beard grooming products.)
Tim's (hipster) former hairstylist stopped cutting hair to focus all his efforts on his new business of small-batch, hand-made, artisanal beard grooming products. No, really. (My neighborhood wants to be Portland [or Austin] SO HARD.)
Hipster beards work on almost no one.
Truer words, man.
