Insta of the Week: Bedazzle Your Beard with LEGO and Ramen

Beard and Ramen. • Happy Monday! I know, who says that? But just think about how nasty my face was after getting cheap ramen to stick on it. I'll give you a hint of how it smelled: not good. • I'll be posting on Wednesday about the winner of the giveaways! Beard "art," shirts, and worst of all, beard clippings! For extra entries, tag as many friends as you can on this post!

Ahhh, No-Shave November. It's that time of the year when men start to get exponentially more jealous of each other, and the man bun craze picks up momentum, because—at least as popular belief would have it—man buns are better with beards, and beards are a craze of their own. This week, one Pierce Thiot, a California-based art director, took his No-Shave game to a new level by adorning his facial mane with ramen, Simpsons LEGO pieces, toothpicks, and pink foam hair curlers.

The recent grams are part of an ongoing series he and his wife started called Will It Beard. Thiot says about the project, "People enjoy wasting their time on it. Some people really hate me." Well, we don't. The photos have a lighthearted, playful quality to them. Not trying to be "too sexy for Instagram" and not merely attempting to woo the ladies, as they easily could have, given today's face-fur fever.

I just wonder if he'll donate those Lego to Ai Weiwei when he's done with them…

Beard and LEGO Simpsons. D'oh! • Did you know that LEGO minifigures could connect to facial hair so well? Also, any kind of hair, really. • The challenge: can you name every character? Also, can you name the characters that repeat? • Now go and have a great Thursday!

Beard and Cat Lady Accessories. • Have you ever wondered how and why a beard is so curly, almost like some delicious curly fries? Every night, every man (or woman) with a beard puts these in their beard, creating those luscious curls. True story. • Now you know. • Also, big thanks to the lady taking all these shots! @poppylaneandco, you're the best.
