OK, I have to reload the save.
There was a bit of a problem regarding flashfreezing, a ballistae, and a barrel of dwarven ale. Gonna fix it up.

But they might embroid their beard, or trim it! A happy beard is a happy dwarf.

How about dwarven barbershops that plant beards on caged prisoners? That would be fun with elves. Cage them beard them and set them free.

I think if you put a beard a beard on an elf they should become, smog loving, tree hating, diggers of the earth who battle their enemies with the entrails of a goblin! Also known as dorfs.

Barbershop? Artificial beard manipulation? Blasphemy!

Everyone knows that a dwarfs beard length, type and braiding is genetic.

I'm pretty sure I heard of someone who moddded dwarf beard's to be shearable. Unfortunately right now shearing will only ever work at the "farmers workshop" so theres no way to fake a custom "barber's shop" that's functional rather than decorative.

It should in any case not be called a barbershop. A bearddresser or something, that might be less atrocious.
