yeah basically they cut off loose tissue and then cut around the hole so it has stuff to graft with then stitch it up. I have not dyed my beard and it is intensely ginger, I moved cities/islands to study architecture and kinda forgot to go visit my friends so made a deal with one of them that neither of us would shave until I came back to visit. This is the final product and it is gone in a week.

And yeah they will shrink back if you don't go about 14mm(ish) but I went up to 25mm (1 inch).

Also Well Adjusted I think its just that flash outfit playing tricks on your mind, did you not see the manly facial hair I am currently sporting?
