Seriously, I work for a large fortune 500 and after lock down one of my coworkers came to the office for the first time with hair down to the middle of his back (pulled back in a ponytail) and a beard halfway down his chest. Management saw him and the first reaction was “that’s an amazing beard!”.
He kept it for about a year then trimmed it down because he said it was annoying to keep up.
