Mad moustaches, fuzzy beardsand perfectly sculpted sideburns - the world's best beard competition has released snapshots from one of their hairiest years yet.
Last November, the World Beard and Moustache Championships were held in Leinfelden-Echterdingen near Stuttgart, Germany.
The competition, which has ran since the 1900s, has been hailed at the 'Olympics' of the beard world.
In the run up to this year's event, beard fans have been given a glimpse of what to expect in a set of amazing, never before seen pictures.
Contestants were entered into one of 17 categories, showing off their prize-winning creations including 'English moustache' and 'freestyle full beard'.
The competition even had a 'Dali' section in a homage to the eccentric, moustached Spanish painter.
Entrants to the World Beard and Moustache Championships are allowed to sculpt and perfect their facial accessories with hair products and hair pins - but are banned from adding any artificial hair onto their entry.
Judges base their scores on whether the contestant's facial hair best enhances their overall appearance, style and personality - with the winner gaining plenty of bragging points for coming top.
The next competition will be held in Portland, Oregon, on October 25 this year.
