Today, having a long beard is often considered as a result of laziness in maintaining one’s grooming habits. Sure, some men do try their best in wearing a well-groomed mustache or a goatee, but they are not what beards used to be.
In fact, some men went to extreme lengths to show just how proud they are of their birds. They took immense care of their facial hair enough to come up with these funny, extraordinary, and crazy facial hair styles.
#1 Hans Langseth
He had the world’s longest beard at 18 feet 6 inches. When he died in 1927, he willed his beard to his children, who donated their father’s impressive beard to the Smithsonian. It still holds the honor of being the longest beard in the Guinness Book of World Records.
