Who would believe that a simple gesture, such as growing a beard, would turn someone’s life upside down? And for those who don’t believe it, Gwilym Pugh was a businessman who started his own company at just 21 years old. Business was going great, but behind good results there are always sacrifices. In this case, Pugh worked nine to 10 hours a day sitting, with hardly any physical activity, and began to gain a lot of weight; One day the scale read 127 kilos. As if that wasn’t enough, he had injuries that prevented him from exercising.
As a hobby, he and some friends formed a folk band and from that moment on the magic began. His barber recommended that he grow a beard in order to adopt an image more in line with the musical genre he had opted for. That simple decision caused his countenance to change and gave him enough motivation to improve his appearance every day.
