Bruno's form since adopting 'beard power' has been a revelation so it's a yes from me.
It will pass like all things do, I have nearly always had some kind of facial hair over the years, but that is usually down to laziness and one of the luxuries of being self employed, I don't have to be shaved for work reasons.
