Wrap me in tinsel and call me Prancer – the festive season is upon us! What’s not to love about Christmas? We get time off work, awesome presents, fairy lights, Christmas carols and all of the cheer! We also get weird and wonderful festive trends, like the hilarious and magnificent beard baubles we brought you last year.
Great, right? Well, this year the universe has delivered once again in the form of glitter beards.

Glorious, aren’t they? What was once the bane of all primary school teachers’ existence is now a must-have male accessory. Finally, hipsters everywhere can get in the Christmas spirit by transforming their well-groomed facial hair into a sparkly mane that not even Mrs. Claus could resist.

And if you think girls can’t jump on the glitter bandwagon, think again. Because #glitterpits are also a thing. Is it weird? Yes. Do we want to try it? Probably not.

But, this whacky trend is actually part of a feminist campaign encouraging women to defy social norms surrounding body hair to promote body equality. That’s something we can get on board with!
So guys, get to your nearest craft store and invest in some glitter. Because, Christmas.
What do you think of glitter beards? What’s the most bizarre Christmas trend you’ve seen?
