    This lady prefers clean shaven. Goatee if facial hair must be present, but closely trimmed.

    Stache's and beards can be smelly and just look dated to me. Just not a fan.

    Depends on the dude. Sorry that answer sucked but it's the truth :-p

    I agree with this.

    My husband has a beard and mustache but it's kept trimmed very close. I love it. It is very sexy!

    Clean shaven is fine. Goatees can be okay too depending on the guy.

    Really sparse goatees = gross to me.
    Huge thick long Duck Dynasty beards = extra gross to me.

    I read a study that found that American women prefer light stubble first, followed by clean shave second. This agrees with every chick I spoke to about my goatee (they all hated goatees), so I shaved it off.

    Definitely full, bushy beard. No "beard burn" when you smooch and it makes it easier to pull him over by the beard and give him a big sloppy kiss!! In retirement, hubby is becoming somewhat ZZ Top and I love it!

    No this is pretty right on.

    yep, this. depends on the guy. some guys look super hot with stubble, some guys its patchy and they look better clean shaven.

    if you want our preference on your personal face...post photos!

    I really hate goatees--they look evil or like the guy has some kind of growth on his chin. My hubby has a full beard and I've gotten used to it but I really preferred that he just have a mustache (which I prefer on all men). After a mustache-only, I prefer clean-shaven and then full beard after that. The one exception I make is that, when a guy is bald, I prefer a NEAT full beard (hubby has a full head of hair so I would rather he just had the mustache).

    also this. some men just look odd with facial hair, others can make it work very well.

    If you're going to have one, at least make it pretty:

    Damn and I thought I was being a rebel rocking my full beard at 24, judging by the responses of the ladies in their 20s im nothing but a hipster :(

    My problem is I don't have the patience to keep anything for longer than a month or two, then I have to change!

    Thanks for the responses!

    Get the patience. After growing my handlebar for two years without trimming and seeing the potential I found that I never knew what I looked like with a beard. In highschool my growth area was very small. I could only manage a chinstrap. I am almost 7 months into my initial Yeard journey and have found a full beard to be quite nice. I could go on and on about the advantages over clean shaven, but this is not the place for it.

    Set yourself a small goal. 3 months is about the time it takes to establish your genetic "full" growing area without trimming. Let the beard and stache go. Don't hide it, don't be ashamed of it. Just try it.

    This, I always assumed i just couldn't grow a stache to complete my beard, because id only let it go for 2-3 weeks before deciding it was too sparse/whispy.

    2 months later and my lip looks more like johhny depps(wishful thinking?), and less like a 14 year old asian boys(mild racism?).
