Excerpts from: The Report on Honery
:OTAbsolutely Andy. Misdiagnoses of HAD is no laughing matter.
...It has been reported that in 83% of cases, misdiagnoses leads to micro-fine paste abuse. While there is no direct evidence to support causality, several studies have linked the abuse to Bristleitis, which has long been known when left unchecked to lead to Chronic Beardification , commonly referred to as ZZ's Disease.

MI, also referred to as Bic Face is the real culprit here. Education is key. In the beginning aggressive therapy is recommended employing a wide variety of therapeutic tools until a baseline well groomed appearance is established.
