First shave in 2.5 years

About 2.5 years ago, I was a wet shaving fanatic. I had to try every new product out, started down the vintage razor hoarding and then into straights. But then I decided to see if I could grow a beard. I have never had one before in my life so I stopped the shaving. To my surprise, I could grow a beard! I've trimmed the beard so it's not super crazy like @Toothpick.

In the mean time, I lost about 70 lbs in the last 1.5 years, and I started to wonder what my face looked like under the beard. So off it came.

Here's a picture of me in front of some old pants:

I haven't had a haircut in 2.5 years... As a long-haired hippie, I'm reminiscing now about my last visit to the barber, where I got my traditional buzz cut, two on the sides and three on top. You are tempting me.
