StarryNightAllAlone Posted August 3, 2021 Share Posted August 3, 2021 How do y'all feel about facial hair on men? Are you a fan of the beard and mustache combo or do you hate them with a hairy passion? If you're attracted to men-folk, do you prefer men who are baby faced and clean shaven or do you prefer men with a woolly coat of facial fuzz? If you are a man, do you prefer a hirsute look or do you like the feel of a silky smooth face? Share your thoughts below. Yay, nay, or meh. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Artemis42 Posted August 3, 2021 Share Posted August 3, 2021 For the most part I don’t care, but for some reason I can’t help but associate facial hair with older men (maybe has something to do with people I saw as a kid, when I still had some vision). It feels weird to me when people compliment the beards of, like, 30-year-olds because in my mind they’re too young to have them lmao. In terms of attraction, yes a clean-shaven face appeals to me way more than one with hair, but it probably wouldn’t be a deal-breaker lol. If I was strongly emotionally attracted to a guy with facial hair, I could probably either come to be okay with it or even like it on him. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

CuppaJoe1 Posted August 3, 2021 Share Posted August 3, 2021 I prefer to have no facial hair, its more professional in my opinion. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
blunose2772 Posted August 3, 2021 Share Posted August 3, 2021 I'm ok with with if it's neatly trimmed and not just allowed to grew wild. I personally let mine just grow wild but that's mostly as a defense mechanism. Makes it easier to be aromatic where your ugly looking. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Riker, Worf, and Sisko look good with facial hair. I think everyone else looks better clean shaven. Of course, anyone can do whatever they want with their hair. I'm not a big fan of beards in general. I think close cut beards can look good and even better than a clean shaven look on some men. So long as the man in question keeps his beard clean and trimmed! 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
coolshades Posted August 3, 2021 Share Posted August 3, 2021 Ugh, don’t get me started! Here’s how much I detest facial hair on men: When I was a child I was AFRAID of men with facial hair. If someone rang the doorbell at my house I ran screaming into the back of the house worried it might be a man with facial hair. I’m not even joking. Needless to say, I still am way more aesthetically attracted to clean-shaven man than one with facial hair. Sometimes I’m OK with a tiny bit of stubble, but completely clean shaven is better. If I am aesthetically attracted to a man and he grows a beard or mustache, my aesthetic attraction evaporates almost entirely. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I don't dislike beards to that extent, but I do have an aversion to long, unkempt beards. If a man must have a beard, I hope he cleans and grooms it regularly! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

StarryNightAllAlone Posted August 3, 2021 Author Share Posted August 3, 2021 @fooledbysecrecy I think Worf looks better with long hair too. His second hairstyle was alright, but his first hairstyle was pretty bad. Once he grew out his glorious locks, he really looked like an honorable Klingon warrior. And Sisko's transformation made him look like the badass he is! 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Anomaly Q3Xr Posted August 3, 2021 Share Posted August 3, 2021 It depends on the person. I prefer guys aesthetically when they are clean shaven, but some people seem to suit beards better. For example, Command Riker and Captain Sisko both suit theirs beards better to me than when they were clean shaven (used them as examples as their pictures are in this thread), whereas I didn't think either Spock or Data suited theirs (Data only tried it out once). 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
rebis Posted August 3, 2021 Share Posted August 3, 2021 I prefer being clean-shaven, but shaving your face every day can get tiresome. So for about half my life, I'll have a goatee, that I just keep trimmed pretty short. Seriously cuts down the time required for upkeep. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Zhorin Posted August 3, 2021 Share Posted August 3, 2021 As a man with a beard, I might be a little biased here, but I really appreciate all the time and effort that goes into keeping a fine looking beard. Some guys can pull it off, others not so much. I have a slight aesthetic attraction to men with nice beards. I agree that Riker looks 1000x better with the beard. Also, for the record, I know the beard doesn’t suit Data. I just think it’s hilarious and cute. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Morays Posted August 3, 2021 Share Posted August 3, 2021 I think it depends a lot on the individual person. Some guys look much better with beards, some look better clean-shaven, and some look good either way. It has a lot to do with the shape of one's face and whether/how the beard complements it, I think. I've found dudes in both camps attractive, without much of a seeming bias either way, so I wouldn't say I have a preference. I personally kinda hate shaving, so goodness knows if I was AMAB, I'd probably have a big ol' scraggly beard just out of sheer laziness 😂 But I presume about as much effort goes into having a neatly trimmed beard as being consistently shaven... 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Lilibulero Posted August 3, 2021 Share Posted August 3, 2021 The recent fashion for facial hair does nothing for me, not that it's my business what men decide to do with their faces, it's just that imho, facial hair makes them look much older than they are. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Nellie Mer Posted August 3, 2021 Share Posted August 3, 2021 Dislike it, almost hate it. Would prefer that it moved up on head instead... Body hair can go away as well. This is valid for my face and body, others can do as they wish. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

AroAce Wolf Posted August 3, 2021 Share Posted August 3, 2021 Eh. I think some guys look fine with facial hair while others do not. It just depends on the man and his other unique features. 🤷♀️ 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
