I hate my husband's quaranatine beard.

Beards interfere with the seal on a mask. Can also pick up a lot of germs. A friend who had a beard for years finally shaved it off bc he’s an essential worker and interacts with public every day.

I need my eyesight checked. I read this as 'I ate my husband's quarantine board'.

Clearly you're a *young* woman. My beard is getting quite lush.

By contrast, I love my husband’s beard and continually argue with him to not shave or trim it.

I'm loving it. I'm the one begging him to continue not shaving while he complains it's hot and itchy.

It’s only hot and itchy when growing it out. Once he has a full beard, it won’t be uncomfortable.

More likely to get the virus with a beard. I shaved mine off in late February, once it was clear the virus was spreading in the US and we would need to adopt a mask-wearing lifestyle. I had been wearing a beard since last summer, when I went on paternity leave.

Beards will gather droplets right next to your mouth. It also interferes with the seal of your mask. Only idiots are growing "Corona beards" right now. I'm shaving 2x per week.

Ha OP, mine is doing the same. I don't mind it though.

And to everyone claiming it messes with the "seal' of your mask. We aren't going anywhere! The grocery every 2 weeks. That's it. So I think it'll be ok. Once we go back out in the world a bit more, and need more mask wearing time, he'll probably shave it. But honestly we are home 99% of the time.
