That is a very convoluted way to show that your beard should not cross the seal.
If you want to get the message across, diagrams like this are not very helpful. It leads to people checking for which part of it might apply to them without making them aware of the underlying reason for it.

- artsyca 7y agoWayyyy too much research went into this but it is worth it in the end
- 6581 7y agoIt's only the best and easiest option as long as what you consider your beard style to be is actually aligning with what that diagram shows. When does a walrus moustache become a horseshoe? When does a villain moustache become a dali? That diagram tries to deliver its message by using ambiguous terms instead of fixating on the actual problem (which is to prevent your beard crossing the seal).
- mygo 7y agoI find “facial hair shouldn’t touch the seal” to be much easier to remember than “here are 45 different facial hair styles, some of them are good for respirators, some of them are bad.” the latter takes much more critical thinking for me than “if the seal is on facial hair then it isn’t sealed at all!” now off to clean-shave my stubble (but keep my soul patch)

It also makes it a little fun so people might actually pay attention. Not everyone responds best to a concise abstract rule given in a Ben Stein voice.
- carb 7y agoNo, it's a viral way to show that your beard should not cross the seal. :) It's being shared a lot and raising awareness.
- true_religion 7y agoWhen you said it like that I assumed that stubble and chinstraps would be fine, since they aren't beards in my mind. However according to the chart, they will interfere with the mask. The chart is the best. It answers all questions, requires no reading, and also lets you figure out how to modify your facial hair to be "good".
