Two gay men from Portland have become social media stars thanks to their incredible ability to turn their burly beards into fanciful works of art, before sharing images of their whimsical creations on Instagram.
Brian Delaurenti and Johnathan Dahl, who are known as The Gay Beards on social media, were inspired to start snapping photos of their facial hair last summer, and the best friends decorated their beards with colorful flowers, glitter and tasty treats - including Rice Krispies.
'One day in July of 2014 we were sitting on the couch, feeling anxiously creative, and we thought why not go take a picture of our beards?' they told TheGroomedManCo. 'We went off exploring, took a couple photos for our newly created Instagram.'
Brian and Johnathan, who have known each other since they were eight yearsold, have weekly creative meetings to discuss their upcoming bear decor, however, they said that 'sometimes things spark ideas for us' - such as their Christmas light beards.
'Depending on what we are putting in our beards, it can take anywhere from 20 minutes all the way up to two hours or more,' they explained of the process.
The duo already have 28,300 followers on Instagram, and many of their photos earn 3,000 likes or more from fans who can't get enough.
