With Movember behind us, we’re now in the thick, hairy middle of Decembeard, and for those of you without sufficient time to grow an entire beard, I have a slightly unorthodox solution.

Sure, this creepy green-tentacled Cthulhu beard might be considered cheating, but who in their right mind is going to stand in your way if you walk down the street wearing this. And if Lovecraft isn’t your thing, you could always paint it orange and tell people you’re Zoidberg.

You can find the Cthulhu inflatable beard over at Archie McPhee for $7.50(USD). Creepy red eyeball contacts sold separately.
