We have SCOTT packs where I work.

When I did my fit testing a few months ago I had about a days worth of growth on my face and I failed my fit test. I did the test about ten times with diffrent size masks, and even having the tester yanking on the starps. I had to go to the store and buy a new razor/shaving cream and shave.

I have done training with several days growth before and never had a problem.

I shaved my goatee when I got into the fire service.
