respirators and beards

I just bought a respirator last weekend. The fitting tests they call for testing fit all fail because of my beard. Must I shave or will the slight leakage be ok.
Last week I got a buzz using an epoxy based filler without a respirator in my garage. I am hopeing on doing the first glassing on monday.
