This summer trend originated from Tumblr and it has now spread to the Wild Wild World of the internet. Blogger Pierre Thiot began this "Will It Beard" project and it was an instant hit.

This project aims to see what objects can be placed in his beard and if it will hold. Either it be a Lego or confetti, just name it, and he will photograph it then post the results.

On March, Thiot captioned a photo with "Beards and Flowers as requested by... well pretty much everyone". And so beard gardens of men with bushy facial hair picturea are posted online and it became viral.

Some people have also posted pictures of their dads sporting this look way back 1977. Sadly, there was no social media sites back then so it has now only become a "thing" and a fad amongst bearded men.

1970s was famous for Flower Power and Hippies making the Peace sign whenever, wherever. Flower crowns were more of a thing during those times.

People have been asking if this is just another selfie trend or if there really are men who are courageous enough to go out and allow other people to judge them with their preference in fashion.

Comments have been posted on the internet asking how these guys would eat or speak with those things basically covering their mouth. People are also intrigued on how they make the flowers hold up. Do they just tuck it in and the beard makes the magic or do they need hairsprays and the like.

Love it or hate it, it is happening and it is trending now.
