Only three days left in our Battle of the Beards contest!

We have had some epic entrants to our Battle of the Beards contest. So much so that I am finding it extremely difficult to decide who should take home this epic prize. So, I call on you Steemit! I need your help!

I am going to list each entrants user name below in separate comments. What I need you to do is look for your favorite beards among the two categories of either Fun Beard or Groomed Beards and vote on who you think should take home their share of the winnings.

Again, you are not required to resteem however if you want your followers to see and vote, you may want to.

There will be a couple of rules to this:

• Each person is only allowed to vote on one beard in each category. This means you can choose one person from Fun Beards and one person from Groomed Beards.
• Paid bot votes will not be included in the vote count.
• It is based solely on the number of votes, not the value of the votes.
  

  The votes will be tallied at the time of the original post paying out. https://steemit.com/steemitbeards/@necromortis/steemit-competition-battle-of-the-beards

  A flannel shirt, an orange beani and a kick ass beard. All trees should fear this man. Although this beard is ready for some hard yakka (Aussie for hard work) it is still well presented in a neat and tidy package. This beards white wisps inject truth and wisdom to it's viewer. This is a beard beard that connects well to its mustache brother with no discerning frays which generally allude to poor maintenance. A great beard all round!

  This well groomed beard fears not for surprises. It is prepped and ready to go for all occasions. Whats that? You want me to go from the beach to your cousin's wedding? "Sure not a problem." The Abe Lincoln of beards is comfortable, classic a and clean. This is a beard you can take home to show your parents without fear of reprisal. If you decide to head to this beards home for the night, you won't have to worry about stepping into some ungodly pit of filth, you will be greeted to a nice, clean home and possibly tickets to the theater...I would say no to the theater tickets.

  What we have hear ladies and gentlemen is what my barber likes to call "The Classic". The Classic is 100% a fit for the well groomed category. The classic screams "I know what I want from life and I am going to take it, by any means." The Classic always needs to be complimented by a well maintained hair cut that can not be too long. It is great to see that this beard has commanded its well earned respect and ensured that the whole package is kept perfectly at all times. To The Classic! Hoora.

  Now this is a beard I can get behind. When this beard went to the barber it did not request some mere trim to fit in with the crowd. This beard wants to be carefully looked after, every single snip from the scissors or slice from the razor must be taken with extreme precision. No normal barber can handle this work of art. This requires the hand of a master barber. One that knows how to shape a beard to its subject's face.

  This beard is on the fence about where its priorities lie. It is a master of double agent espionage. Finding itself confident and comfortable in a corporate environment and then quite easily dropping its tie at the door as it heads to the clubs. This beard is always sure to require maintenance for fear of growth above the lip line. Complimented by any ensemble, whether it be glasses or a wig the spy beard is sure to keep you on your toes.

  Now this is a versatile, well maintained and magnificent beard. Notice how each hair is perfectly in line with the one next to it? The hairs on this beard know to stay looking and great as possible for fear of being ostracised from the rest of the beard. This beard is a beard that you can take snowboarding with your mates on the weekend and then to your girlfriends in the night. You will never feel out of place with this work of art dangling from your face.

  "Behold my power!" The beard shouted down at his foes. They all cowered in fear as the beard's power loomed from above. This is beard is not to be taken lightly. This beard could cut down the tallest tree in the forest with...a herring! This beard has been grown by powers unbeknownst to man, with each hair curling, interlocking with its neighbor creating a strong and powerful foothold over all who challenge it.
  
  

  There we have it, a round of applause for our well groomed contestants.

  One of the longest and wild beards in this competition. This beard has been formally recognised by Australia's Foot League as a beard fit for a champion sportsman. Navigating its way through life can be incredibly difficult, its superior length getting caught in windows and doors. Not only is this just a fun beard, it is a hungry beard. Always absorbing food and storing it to feast on for days to come. Sustenance is an important part of this beards life, how else do you think it has all of its energy to be fun all of the time. This beard is definitely an extrovert, always seeking to join in a conversation and allowing literal stroking, as if we were all stroking its ego.

  The Dad Beard. Fun, relaxed and when needed, fierce. This beards life is packed with kids and work, it doesn't have time to spend every day at the barber. It needs to save all of its energy for playing with tiger toys and getting time in the man cave. The Dad Beard is a beard worn proudly by millions around the world, it will never be lost, it will never be frowned upon. The Dad Beard could be the hero we have all been looking for in our lives.

  This beard has no fear. The unusual, unseen and terrifying Bee Beard. I would never have thought I would find a beard brave enough to exist however I have now been exposed to such sheer greatness. This beard is not for a boy, a man can only command such a beard. So step aside and let @bushkill be this beards muse.

  The Wizard Beard commands you bow before its prowess. When not casting spells this beard likes to intimidate inferior beards by extending its long arms around the ears of the human it owns. This beard is as comfortable at a medieval faire as it is on a skateboard. Zooming by at near super sonic speeds it is integral to ensure this beard is well protected with a full face helmet. Unfortunately due to the greatness of this beard it is near impossible to protect its whole self. However, this beard fears not. Instead, laughing in the face of danger and sticking a camera to its face to capture the danger that rushes by. The Wizard Beard is not safe for amateurs.

  As fresh as the first day it was grown this beard is fun and fruity. Snip a bit off and add it to a chicken dish to ensure you extract its full flavour. Healthy enough for a kids soccer team and excellent enough for a grown man. This beard is sweet and a little bit juicy!

  Coming at you live from the Millenium Falcon, this big mess is what we call the Chewie. When not flying around at light speed in the galaxy this beard will have you firing laser crossbows at all of your enemies. Fear this beard, it is strong, wild and untamed.

  There we have it folks, the beards in our contest so far!
