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!

The last time you used a razor on your last flight should be the last time a razor touches your face. So basically it starts growing when you show for your last flight.

My reserve beard is more of a reserve goatee. The beard is fine for a few days, but then starts to get itchy (I guess I'm not Duck Dynasty material). The reserve goatee doesn't itch. I start as soon as I shave for my final leg of my last trip.

As an aside, I don't know (based on RA's comments) how Unical can blacken the skies with heavy metal without imploding.

I get those too.

I really sucked.

But I really felt like I was doing better. I mean six years on Douglas products, I know how to give good flap.

Yeah, my crappy excuse for a beard is already itchy. But I'm in "you can't tell me what to do" mode. Joemomma told me yesterday not to try and kiss her till I shave
