Mumsnet jury urgently required!
Please settle our dispute.
What colour is this beard?

Beard owner stubbornly declares "it's brown!" yet quite blatantly it's a beautiful shade of ginger.

Verdict?

To think this beard is ginger?

Ginger

Just for the curiosity factor, does ginger beard equal ginger nether regions?

My husband's very blond but even his beard has ginger bits in it!

ToastyFingers · 30/07/2018 22:14

my husband's beard is very dark, with some lovely grey streaks.
But my dad, who is fair, has a lovely tabby cat beard with patches of brown, ginger, blonde and grey.

All (clean) beards are good beards imo.

Ginger with bits of brown

Passmethecrisps · 30/07/2018 22:16

Ginger. It’s a lovely shade

My husband’s hair is darkish brown with no red at all but his beard is 100% ginger. When he grew a beard there was a very clear line between head hair and beard hair. It looked very odd

Deffo ginger 🧡

Unless the person has really dark hair, all beards are ginger.

My fella is half Jamaican... his beard has ginger flecks in it!

SomeKnobend · 30/07/2018 22:40

Ginger. Very nice too.

Boatsnack3 · 30/07/2018 22:42

It's African Sunrise ( this is the shade my ginger best friend claims to be)

My DP has a strawberry blond ginger beard I love it.

A very lovely beard tell him.
Oh and it is ginger 🍊

RubaDubMum89 · 30/07/2018 22:46

Ginger! 😁

flutteryleaves · 30/07/2018 22:47

its not a traditional ginger but defo not brown. i would call this rich tone an auburn shade (reddish brown).

TheShapeOfEwe · 30/07/2018 22:49

Worieddd · 30/07/2018 22:50

Smidge001 · 30/07/2018 22:56

That is about as ginger as they get! Grin
How can he think that is brown?

spugzbunny · 30/07/2018 23:01

It's ginger ... I know my own kind!

pieceofpurplesky · 30/07/2018 23:04

I love a ginger beard and this is a ginger beard

PookyHook · 30/07/2018 23:05

My DH is half Chinese and has very dark hair, but his beard still has a fair bit of ginger in it.

I read somewhere that if a man has a ginger beard it means he's carrying one copy of the ginger gene. I was kinda hoping one of my kids would be ginger but I don't think I carry the gene.

3luckystars · 30/07/2018 23:06

It’s 100% red.

I don’t like the word ginger.

What's wrong with Ginger?
