Ok boyz, don't want to make a karma mistake so here is my question.....

I'm sitting my once no more than twice a year reserve month in April. So my question is......when do I start my reserve beard? I quit shaving after I got home on Monday (done for the month). My first reserve day is the 7th. Should/can I keep my current beard (Joemomma already giving me $hit) or do I wait till the 7th (joemomma's opinion....but she's normally wrong on aviation matters).

Don't want to screw this up!
