Flowers in beards are fun, cute, seen-it-on-Pinterest, good job, dude. The Gay Beards don flowers sometimes, too, but better than that, the BFFs from Portland dazzle their 70,000 Instagram followers with unexpected ornaments like glitter and glowsticks, even the odd Lego or cocktail umbrella. Nothing is off limits. Validating the term “flavor savor,” Brian Delaurenti and Johnathan Dahl incorporate foodstuffs, adorning their facial forests with healthful and junk foods alike. It’s kale one day, Fruity Pebbles the next. For Halloween, they did spiderwebs and candy corn, and for Pride they did rainbow paint. Every day feels like a holiday on the Gay Beards’ page. “We tend to think the world needs more love and laughter,” they say on their profile. Done and done.
