World Beard Day is celebrated annually on the first Saturday in September. According to the official website, on the day itself  ‘it is customary for the bearded members of the family to relax and partake in no jobs or chores. The beardless members of the family traditionally show their support by waiting on the bearded hand and foot.  World Beard Day is all about promoting and elevating the global status of the beard. Whilst many countries and cities practice World Beard Day customs specific to their own region, shaving on World Beard Day is universally considered to be highly disrespectful.’
