Explanation:

Abraham Lincoln grew his beard after receiving a letter from 11-year-old Grace Bedell suggesting he grow one to look more presidential. He followed her suggestion, and the beard was grown in the period after winning the 1860 presidential election, during his trip to Washington, D.C. for his inauguration, which was after he met Grace in person during that trip. Historical records confirm he began growing the beard after meeting Grace, and it was fully grown by the time he arrived in Washington for his inauguration.

Answer:

B. after he met Grace in person
