The last time ‘Mr. Incredibeard’ was cleanly shaven was 15 years ago.
While many of us can only hope to twiddle with our beards before they become too much to handle, ‘Mr. Incredibeard,’ or San Francisco-based Isaiah Webb, grows spectacular and creative beard shapes that resemble anything from a Ramen bowl—with real Ramen inside it—to what he dubs the “Wookiee’s Uterus.”
With so much facial hair, which Webb says runs in his family, he shapes his beards into shaggy masterpieces with the help from his wife. Using some of his favorite products, like ‘The Bearded Bastard’s Woodsman Mustache Wax’ and ‘Beard Oil,’ he is able to create spiky, curly, and even bent at right-angled beard styles all while smelling like “a lumberjack in the middle of Alaska with an axe in one hand while using the other hand to slap a bear in the face with a salmon.”
