I happen to be a big fan of facial hair on men. It’s very distinguishing, and there’s something wise and yet jolly about a man in a full beard and mustache. However, many industry professionals seem to think that the clean-shaven look is best for a respectable and trustworthy appearance.
Especially if you’re running for president.
Well, a few presidents in America’s history disagreed with this stereotype and went all out with mustaches, beards, mutton chops and sometimes all three.
Martin Van Buren

Ulysses Grant
Rutherford Hayes
James Garfield
