“I started to grow my beard in my young years as an activist . Back then it was just a matter of getting it as far as the head possible. It sits well not like this everyday , usually it’s just a long beard that goes down above the navel . But bustle has always styled my beard itself. I usually use six hours to put it . 6 hours with cheap hairspray and a hair dryer , you get this result. “
