The itching must be torturous, maybe that’s why they go all alllalalalalala. When I grow a beard it has to stop just below the jaw line the neck hair just drives me nuts. I rarely get a beard more that three weeks worth. We have to wear full face respirators when the frac trucks are on site for 12 hour shifts and your mask won’t seal with facial hair. Silica is nasty stuff the last thing you want in your lungs. I giggle when people whine about a face diaper for half an hour to shop ha try a full gas mask for 12 hours in the West Texas sun bunch of sissyboys with the face diaper whining.
Mine goes so kinky that it feels like it is pulling my skin off my face.
I’ve worked several jobs that require all forms of face/respirator masks. No shave means no seal means no work means unemployment.
Of course the worst thing was you couldn’t itch your nose 3 seconds after putting it on and until you left the work zone and then you could peel it off of your face!
