Beards look cool?

Beards & short back & sides hairstyles are now a generic brown person look.

cos roti and genetics means most desis have tubby cheeks and fairly soft jaw lines. women contour with makeup, men grow and shape beards.

Are you indian? Most Pakistanis tend to have sharper jawlines and sleeker cheeks, at least the "martial castes" and mountain people.

nope, pakistani, from northern punjab and compared to western europeans most pakistanis have softer jawlines.

i cant think of many famous pakistanis with jawlines like brad pitt, tom cruise, david coulthard, henry cavill, etc....

yes some pathans and northern pakistanis have strong jawlines, more so than other pakistanis, but whilst there will always be exceptions to the rule im simply stating my observation of the general trend.

Lol there are many famous pakistanis with cutting edge jawlines lol, sohail tanvir, imran khan, hasnain lehri and quite a few other celebrities. Yeah we're not as rugged as scandinavians or greeks but we're definitely not soft looking and can look good without a beard, of course you get the shoaib akhtar looking types lol.

Beard hides imperfections in jawline. Angular beard can mask even guy with double chin presentable.

That's why you see so many midddle aged guy's with 'dad bods' and beard.

If your face is well structured and chiseled, then flaunt your genes with a light stubble not a full beard.

Ethnicities like Punjabi tend to benefit most from beard as they are predisposed to have round face with weak chin. Whereas Pashtuns tend to have elongated face with lesser fat on face.

As far as looking old is concerned, it's a myth. It makes you look mature as in being a responsible no nonsense guy.

I get depressed for days when I cut my beard really short. It seems beard growth has direct relation to my serotonin levels.

Have you tried Mewing? It is said that it can restructure the jaw line.

Its a technique where you keep your teeth together and tongue to the roof of the mouth all the time. Really tough to do and barely any documented cases of restructuring of jawlines in adults. It is said to work for kids and teens though. However, many adults do say that they could see some changes in their jawlines when they were consistent with it for a year.

Fun fact: did you know the tongue rests on the top of your mouth naturally?

I experimented with keeping a beard, but it was never too dense and used to hide my attractive chiseled jawline. But it is great for people with certain flaws in their bone-structure. I have seen people who went from a 4 to 7 just by growing a beard.

i never said pakistanis dont look good without beards, was just simply stating my own observation.

no, i dont really care that much tbh. it would be nice to have a sculpted jawline but it doesnt bother me enough to do something like that. additionally im lazy enough to not want to shave every day, so it is what it is.

Mewing was a name given to it to make it trendy. That posture with the tongue to the roof of the mouth and the bottom and top set of teeth apart is actually the natural arrangement of the tongue. For one reason or the other throughout evolution we stopped doing it, I think one study said it was because as a civilization we progressed and grew out of the hunter gatherer phase where we were no longer eating tough foods which would require some effort from the jaw to chew, the jawline got less defined and we lost that natural posture of the tongue.

Yes. I prefer to have a beard. I have a beard similar to Adil Rashid.

Not a fan of being clean-shaven.

Some benefits of having a beard (source: Google AI):

Growing a beard offers benefits like skin protection (UV, bacteria), natural moisturizing, warmth in winter, and potential for increased confidence and perceived maturity, while also saving time and razors and acting as a filter for airborne particles, though it requires proper grooming to stay healthy.

Skin & Health Benefits

• UV Protection: Blocks harmful UVB rays, reducing sun damage and skin cancer risk.
• Moisture Retention: Traps natural skin oils (sebum), keeping skin hydrated and preventing dryness or flakiness.
• Fewer Irritations: Avoids micro-cuts, razor burn, and ingrown hairs from shaving, reducing acne and infection risk.
• Acts as a Filter: Can catch dust, pollen, and allergens, potentially helping with asthma triggers.
• Temperature Regulation: Provides insulation in cold weather and can feel cooler in heat by trapping air.

Psychological & Social Benefits

• Increased Confidence: Many men report feeling more mature, confident, and assertive with a beard, notes Barbudos.pt and Educated Beards.
• Perceived Attractiveness: Studies suggest women often find bearded men more attractive, mature, and healthier, say this article from The Beard Struggle and this article from Bombay Shaving Company.
• Self-Expression: Allows for personal style and individuality through different shapes and lengths, per Educated Beards.

Practical Benefits

• Saves Time & Money: Less time spent shaving and saves money on razors and shaving products, says Reddit users.

I usually keep a short beard, I have it since teenage years. Sometimes I let it grow out.

There is a famous Indian lady in the UK with a beard. She is a Sikh and appears on TV often, it's forbidden for her as a Sikh to shave her beard so she prefers to keep it.

It looks very odd but I do admire her bravery.

You know… Jesus (PBUH) had a beard right?

Or is the whole “ I love Jesus “ thing situational? (Assuming you actually are a Christian )

If you love someone, you don’t really insult a physical characteristic of theirs in this fashion.
