Gavin Hill spent the past year growing out a lush, gorgeous beard, but he knew that it was time to move on.
So the Regina, Saskatchewan, native began the painful process of saying goodbye.
He recalled some of the beard's fondest memories. Like cradling pens in its warm tresses.
And catching delicious Mini-Wheats.
He gave it one last brush.
And one final swipe of the comb.
He delicately twirled his manly 'stache.
And cried a single sweet tear.
And then it was time for the REAPING.
"I wanted to see what kind of face was underneath that beard. I had forgotten what I looked like," the 21-year-old told BuzzFeed Life. "Needless to say I was not impressed with what I found."
Hill was also hoping it would improve his dating life.
Though he soon came to regret that decision.
"I'd take beard over sex any day," says Hill, who clearly has his priorities straight.
"It's like I cut off my identity. I long to be a lumbersexual again."
