Stephen Colbert is back with wonderful news: he still exists. And so does that wonderful beard that first appeared during his hiatus, but CBS isn't having it. So before shaving it off for The Late Show, our old friend discussed the facial hair at length. "There are two things that anyone with a beard knows," Colbert said. "1. You rely on your loved ones to tell you when there's cheese in it. 2. When you shave you get to redefine your whole face."
Watch the introductory video below to see Colbert try out numerous styles. And look out for his first episode as The Late Show host Sept. 8.
