That Pumpkin Needs a Shave

Why not shave a pumpkin instead of that handsome face of yours? Better yet, carve yourself a BEARD FACE pumpkin. That way, if some mischievous hooligans smash it on the street, it's just a tribute to its masculinity. It will have inspired manliness so strong and powerful that it was truly impossible NOT to smash. We would insert a "Smashing Pumpkins" joke here, but we'll let you just imagine how witty it would've been instead. We're giving you so much already.

Speaking of which, so that you can carve your pumpkin up right, today we'll be giving you a template to stick on your pumpkin and carve out so that you too can have your very own pumpkin of extreme masculinity. :D>

For your Beard Face Pumpkin, you will need:

A knife, for the carving.

A bag, for the insides.
A spoon/ hand, for the scooping out of the insides.
Tape, for holding the template in place.
A printer, for printing out the marvelous man-template we made you for your man-pumpkin.

Send us pictures of any bearded pumpkins you make to our email at thebeardfacespeaks@gmail.com and we'll post the best right here on our site! :)> Is the template we made too easy for your master pumpkin carving skills? Go check out our t-shirt designs for a more difficult challenge. We bet you that Pirate Beard would look pretty burly on a pumpkin.

For large, burly pumpkins:

For Medium pun'kins:

For baby pumpkins that are still very, very manly:

Costumes for the Bearded? No Problem!

Hello, hello, hello, beards of the world! Halloween is drawing ever closer and closer, and we hope you have your costumes ready! You could be any ole bearded thing, you know: a pirate, a bum, an amish guy, a werewolf, a dwarf, a bearded mummy... the generic possibilities are endless. The beard is a many splendored thing.

However, if you're looking for something more iconic to strut your stuff in this spooktacular season, let us make some very well thought out suggestions. ;)>


Billy Mays

Are you a bright and shining representation of the human race? Gregarious? Lively? Do you LOVE to shout? Then this is the costume for you.
Put it together: Powder blue oxford shirt, khaki pants, an ear-to-ear smile, and a well-groomed black beard. 
Optional: A bottle of Oxi-clean.


Al Borland

What could be better than traipsing through a Halloween party as the beloved Al Borland? Sure, you could go as a plain old lumberjack, but consider this an outstanding alternative. If anyone needs something fixed, you'll be right there, plaid, polished, and perfect. "Oh, what's that? You say your heart's broken, baby? I've got just the tool for that." ;)>
Put it together: Plaid flannel shirt, tool belt, various tools, jeans, and a rugged beard.

The Dude

So you were really set on being a bum, eh? Well, fine, we'll give you an option for that too. If you're going to be a bum, at least be awesome at it. The Dude from the Big Lebowski is your go to guy. After all, the Dude abides.
Put it together: dirty t-shirt, unkempt robe, boxer shorts, sandals, and going a week without showering or grooming of any kind.
Optional: A rug that really ties the room together.

Pavarotti

Going to a fancy dinner party for Halloween, are you? Maybe you just love suits and are a little too fluffy to be James Bond? Consider the great Pavarotti in your costume choices! Not only will you look super classy, but randomly breaking into song will shock no one. You are Pavarotti, and you sing when you durn well please.
Put it together: A lovely three piece suit, (depending on your heft, a few pillows or a fat suit), snazzy shoes, and a voice like a booming angel.
Optional: Singing lessons from Paula Abdul and Randy Jackson. Yes, that's a real thing.

Chuck Norris

Get your guns and be an all-American hero. Or an internet meme. Either way, you'll look like a real man's man.
Put it together: denim vest, leather holsters, body oil, fists of fury, pants, and, most importantly, a legendary look in your eye.
Optional: a rehearsed catalog of Chuck Norris jokes - think how much more awesome you'll look once someone has talked about how there used to be a street named Chuck Norris, but they changed it because no one crosses Chuck Norris and lives.

Zach Galifianakis


The one, the only, the awkward. If you thought we were getting epic with Chuck Norris, you just hold your horses, now. This is perhaps the most clever costume out there right now, and oh so easy to put together.
Put it together: sunglasses, t-shirt, shorts, roll out of bed 5 minutes before you head out for the evening, and a quirky yet lovable air about you.
Optional: baby, harness, baby sunglasses.

Zach Galifianakis Plus

Want to be Zach Galifianakis but have too many Fruit Loops and doll parts laying around? You're in luck, my friend, because this is your costume for the occasion! Just look at that sexy hair. You really can't go wrong with this. :)>
Put it together: all of the original Galifianakis necessities, doll parts, and Fruit Loops.


There you go! If you can't find something in those amazing options we've just given you, just go as our favorite: The Beard Face Fan. Head to thebeardface.com and pick up Pirate Beard or Mystery Beard and your friends will be ripe with envy.

Until next time, you meddling beards! :)>

The Beard : What a Wonderful Sound

Music is in the hair, my friends. Many of you probably have heard of a little Australian band called The Beards, but we're a little late to the party here at The Beardface. Our ignorance is your gain in this case, beardites! All of their songs are about beards, and they couldn't do the facial haired world more proud with the magnificence of their music. Check them out:


This little ditty is our particular favorite today and in honor of every wizard needing a beard, we're putting Wizard Beard tees on sale this week! Get your magic on and rock out with your chins out! :)>

When Summer Flees, Here Comes Halloween!

Hello again, you bearded glories! At this point it's safe to say that summer is truly gone for the year. Autumn is here, and costume season is quickly approaching. In order to commemorate the end of sunny days of surf, sand, and lemonade, as well as gear you up with something creepy to listen to while you're thinking up bearded characters to dress as this Halloween, we give you Bob Denver's disembodied singing beard. Please, feel free to cringe. :o>



Now that you've sat through that surf 'n' turf jamboree, we reward you with a DJ Beard sale! If you love music (filled with Bob Denver or otherwise :)> ) this is the shirt to rock out with. All regular one color tees are yours for the melodious wearing. Rock them with your iPod. Roll with them in the club. Shimmy with them on the dance floor. Wave your hands in the air like you just don't care. It's precisely why they were made. ;)>

Catch you beardies on the flip side! :D>

Movember heads up!

Bearded, bearded, far and wide! Lend me your 'staches!

For those of you who have participated before, you probably know what time of year is fast approaching. Movember! The month where shaving is prohibited and the hair flows like waterfalls! Classy, sexy, well-groomed waterfalls, we're hoping. ;)>

We know we're mentioning it a whole month early, but for all of you artists out there, many of your communities tend to host art shows based on the beard and its glory around this time; though as most art galleries do, the dates to enter pieces are a few weeks before the actual gallery is set. It's all for a fantastic cause, if we do say so ourselves:

"During November each year, Movember is responsible for the sprouting of moustaches on thousands of men’s faces, in the US and around the world. With their “Mo’s”, these men raise vital funds and awareness for men’s health, specifically prostate cancer and other cancers that affect men.



On Movember 1st, guys register at Movember.com with a clean-shaven face. For the rest of the month, these selfless and generous men, known as Mo Bros, groom, trim and wax their way into the annals of fine moustachery. Supported by the women in their lives, Mo Sistas, Movember Mo Bros raise funds by seeking out sponsorship for their Mo-growing efforts.

Mo Bros effectively become walking, talking billboards for the 30 days of November. Through their actions and words they raise awareness by prompting private and public conversation around the often ignored issue of men’s health.

At the end of the month, Mo Bros and Mo Sistas celebrate their gallantry and valor by either throwing their own Movember party or attending one of the infamous Gala Partés held around the world by Movember, for Movember." - to read more about Movember, here's their official site: http://us.movember.com/

Get involved, all you beard-holders! We'll be posting more reminders for you, don't worry. :)>

For now, all of our Eye Heart Beard shirts are still on sale to commemorate all of the artistic, bearded things happening in communities around the nation! Free shipping on orders $50 or more when you enter the code SHIPFREEUS when you're at the checkout. :D>

Until next time, may the beard be with you! :)>

Beauty is in the Eye of the Beard-Holder

Ahhhh. The bright Summer days are fading into Fall and the beards grow ever bushier. Like the splenderous array of changing leaves, our chin tufts start showing their true colors around this time of year. Are you the sort of man who grows it wild and full for the coming snows, follicles knitting themselves together to warm your face? Or do you take it on the chin with a soul patch, far too cool to care about the cold? Maybe you're a mustache man and let it grow out to help Bert's Bees protect your lips from chapping. However you wear it, Fall is growin' season, folks, and there's a whole lot of you making it beardable, no matter what the weather is like.

Not only beardable, but artfully done so! Check these guys out!
