For over a decade, Costa had become known for his prominent beard. It had become an inseparable part of his appearance and image. His wife, whom he had fallen madly in love with at first sight, had never seen him without his facial hair. He even promoted products related to beard care and had no intention of parting with his beloved beard.

But one day, Costa had an idea. He wondered if his wife would still recognize him without his iconic beard. Curiosity got the better of him, and he decided to test her.

Finally, the moment arrived. Costa stood before his wife, completely shaven. She couldn’t believe her eyes. For the first time in their relationship, she saw her husband without his beard. Needless to say, she was shocked.

“I couldn’t believe the radical change in my husband,” she pointed out. “I was completely taken aback.”

The transformation was so astonishing that it left his wife speechless. It was as if a completely different person stood before her. The absence of his facial hair changed his entire appearance.

The experience reminded Costa of how attached he had become to his beard. It had become a part of his identity, and he didn’t even remember what he looked like before growing his beard.
