Plenty of men sported a little extra facial hair for the annual “No Shave November,” without staying true to its original cause—awareness for prostate cancer—yet this year, several Washington University students returned to the month’s roots.
In honor of No Shave November, I found a dating site called Bristlr. It’s a place that connects “those with beards to those that want to stroke beards.” Essentially, it’s the Tinder for people with beards and people who want a beard in their life.
As we approach the middle of the month, the early results of No-Shave November are rolling in. Few of us sport respectable beards, while the vast majority clings to wispy patches of facial hair while weathering the (hopefully) good-natured ribbing of friends.
It’s November, which means midterms are over, and it’s time to do a little procrastinating, maybe by catching up on all the television you missed while twiddling your thumbs on the second floor of Olin (party floor). Most importantly, it’s No Shave November.
Stay up to date with everything happening at Washington University and beyond.
