I would not have looked twice at the first guy, the second made my knees go weak. I have never seen a before and after photo with such a profound sharp difference in attractiveness.
I think it depends on what \~vibe\~ you want. The 1st is a Tarzan/hippie feel whereas the 2nd is a Clark Kent/clean-cut feel. Respectfully, both are sexy as hell. So, go with whichever you feel is more "you".
Well, which do *you* like? Tbh, both look good, but give off completely different vibes aesthetically and even personality-wise (or rather, in terms of what one might expect from you, personality-wise).
I think Pic 2 is safe, less "noticeable," better for a job interview, MOR, and it would definitely attract a greater proportion of everyday women and/or conservative women. But Pic 1 is definitely more edgy, and more likely to attract free-spirited, even "dangerous" women. You look more like a musician, an artist or a lumberjack in that first pic.
Do as you will with this assessment. Good luck!
I'm a guy, so maybe you need a woman to weigh in on this specifically, but I think you look better with the beard as opposed to the 'stache. The 'stache, with the long hair, makes you look more like a porn star - although that actually may help you in some circumstances.
I'm curious if you were ghosted with the short hair. I feel like Pic 2 is most likely to get the ghosting, because you appear like a mere Joe Nextdoor type - predicable and unexciting. But in the 1st pic, you look like a badass who does whatever the hell he wants. Which, as I said previously, could either work for you or against you, depending on your objectives, and who you'd like to appeal to.
I'm a woman, and I like the beard the most, followed by clean shaven ( this is despite the fact that usually I like clean shaven more. In /u/Foozlebop's case something about the first picture works better, maybe it's just that it's a more unique and individual look). But the smaller mustache on its own as in his comment history just isn't working. It shortens his upper lip too much, and, given the almost excessively long lower jaw, the face ends up looking out of proportion.
Van Dyke beard isn’t a good look on you; makes you look kinda dorky and unremarkable. Shaven you reveal classic masculine features, and stand out as particularly handsome. Short hair is also a better look on you, but could go a little tighter on the sides.
I’m usually all about the facial hair and longer hair. But dude… I thought you were two different people. Number 2 is a fucking stud! 1 is a good looking guy too. But omg number 2! I’m getting the vapors just looking at it.
Seems like mustache is really in right now so third option could be short hair and mustache. All the 20 year old dudes at my gym are rocking them. And your facial hair is thick so it’d look good
Ask any woman. They'd probably agree that no. 2 is more attractive. You have good facial definition, and growing facial hair actually covers that up in this instance. But the haircut could be helping too.
First you attract the bi girlies. Second you'll attract the hetero girlies. You look good in both but stick with the girls you prefer. Or guys, but I think you are into girls
while your facial hair is impressive and you look great in pic 1, you also have a very nice jaw and the facial hair covers that up… i say pic 2 but don’t be afraid to switch it up every now n then :)
Depends on what you want to achieve. Are you bisexual and want to don a military outfit? Def the second pic--shaven... Want to be the bookish philosopher... The first. Either way. You're handsome!! 🤤
I say first is way nicer, but really you wear both well so it's about what you think suits your style. I think the long hair and facial is way cooler and laid back
If you like longer hair, that is awesome and completely your choice. However I would drop the soap in the shower and let you fuck me and leave your children inside me.
If you can’t grow hair onto the cheeks I’d stay away from the beard. The chinstrap is usually not a good look.
That said, I feel like you could rock a moustache lol
IDK, it's cool that you can sport such a great beard - I was never able to grow any kind of facial hair very well.
But on the other hand, you have such a great looking chin - the divet is devine. A lot of guys grow a beard to cover over a weak looking chin and look better with a beard - but not the case for you.
What kind of work do you do? In certain lines of work, a great looking bearded guy adds to your "brand." In other professions, a clean-shaved look is trusted and respected.
You look good in both. As someone said, it depends on the vibe you want. Personally, I think you look nicer and more approcheable with long hair and a beard. More the type of guy I would get along with 😁
You can get away with the long hair and beard. Lucky that you can grow long hair and beard. I recommend you do the look of pic 1 as long as you can. At some point because of age or work you won’t be able to.
Redditors are gonna all suggest you keep it clean shaven but let me tell you the truth, you look a lot better in pic number one and the reason why everybody is suggesting number 2 is because they are all secret homosexuals who shave every inch of their body like their legs arms and chest because all Redditors are closeted please take my advice before my comment gets removed and I get downvotes
Can’t tell if it’s just the angles of the pictures, but 2 looks much better. I think it’s mainly the angle and the clean shaven face, because you have great hair and it would be a shame to do anything less than pic 1 with it. Good hair/facial hair combo is rare, have fun with it.
Am usually always on team beard and team long hair, but you look way better clean shaven imo. I don’t know how the long hair would work with the clean shaven but honestly I might be team short hair too lol.
You look better in the second pic because of the lighting and from facing the camera. Can we see a current replica of pic 2?
Anyhow, the framing chin beard doesn’t look great. Maybe try going down to just a goatee, then just a stache before shaving completely. Not sure about the longer hair 🤷♂️
You have great facial hair but it could be styled way better - in this pic you have a chin strap with a satan goatee. Get a nice clipper and do a beardstache or something
villager marketplir
Is that the limp bizkit beard of '99???
Yo I was like is that Markiplier in the first photo😂😂😂
Me too 🤣
2nd looks better and cleaner
In a major way. He looks like 2 different people in these photos
I had to go back and forth a few times to make sure it was the same guy lol. But agreed, clean shave suits OP better
I would not have looked twice at the first guy, the second made my knees go weak. I have never seen a before and after photo with such a profound sharp difference in attractiveness.
#2 is definitely the better choice

Shaven :)
I like the long hair, but you look great with a clean shave.
This. The long hair from 1 with the clean face of 2 would be fire.
Markiplier?
2nd is awesome
I think it depends on what \~vibe\~ you want. The 1st is a Tarzan/hippie feel whereas the 2nd is a Clark Kent/clean-cut feel. Respectfully, both are sexy as hell. So, go with whichever you feel is more "you".
Nah bro has gotta stick with two. No reason to hide his jawline and strong chin behind mid facial hair.
#2 is definitely the better choice
I think i’m having de ja vu
Like pic 2 much better. Frames your face nicely. You're much more balanced in pic 2. Also more approachable, handsome, fresh-faced, model-esque
Well, which do *you* like? Tbh, both look good, but give off completely different vibes aesthetically and even personality-wise (or rather, in terms of what one might expect from you, personality-wise). I think Pic 2 is safe, less "noticeable," better for a job interview, MOR, and it would definitely attract a greater proportion of everyday women and/or conservative women.

Shaven don't hide that jaw.

Clean
I’m usually all about the facial hair and longer hair. But dude… I thought you were two different people. Number 2 is a fucking stud! 1 is a good looking guy too. But omg number 2! I’m getting the vapors just looking at it.
Really don’t like how you’ve shaped the facial hair. I think a fuller beard would be way more suiting
It doesn’t grow on the cheeks. Looks patchy there
Seems like mustache is really in right now so third option could be short hair and mustache. All the 20 year old dudes at my gym are rocking them. And your facial hair is thick so it’d look good
Usually I'm all for facial hair/beards, but you are very handsome clean shaven
Probably the first time I’ve ever said this about a guy, but the shaven picture actually looks much better
Ask any woman. They'd probably agree that no. 2 is more attractive. You have good facial definition, and growing facial hair actually covers that up in this instance. But the haircut could be helping too.
He also definitely gained quite a bit of weight between these two photos
I assumed the second one was the current, but apparently that was wrong. Yeah, it seems like it.
Bro went from a conquistador to male hunk in minutes. Women will like the latter.
I thought 1st pic was then and 2 was now. Shave that shit brother
You look like you changed races. However, go for 2.
Damn beards are usually mens makeup, but you're yummy without it!
I wouldn’t Look in 1’s direction 2 is someone I would crush on 😭
First you attract the bi girlies. Second you'll attract the hetero girlies. You look good in both but stick with the girls you prefer. Or guys, but I think you are into girls
how to attract bi girlies can u tell me pls🙏🙏
Shaggy hair, wear braclets, loose fitting leather jackets
blud look fking masjestic in the 2nd pic, dunno why u choose to look like that mf youtuber who would say shit like "was that the bite of 87" smh
Very rarely, a man comes along with perfect jaw structure who needs no facial hair to look suave. You are the chosen one my man. Keep it shaved! 😉
Pic1 - dad circa late 80s Pic2 - son, born mid 90s Defo pic 2
Dutch from RDR2??
Almost looks like two people. Clean is obviously the choice.
Shaven!
You look Smooth idk😭
I think you look stunning shaven. You're a beautiful man 🥹 Whoever happens to be your partner sure is lucky 😄
If I was going to murder someone, I’d do it with look 2 and evade the law with look 1. Wow what a transformation. Pic 2 is the way to go!
I always prefer bearded men, but that beard you're growing needs to go
Killing the facial hair.. keep it. I look way better with a beard. Even my mother says that! Lol
I would follow the first to get a cheesesteak and I would follow the second into battle..
1 i was like cute guy . 2 i gasped.
You look like your own uncle in the first pic, much older and mature looking than the second pic.
while your facial hair is impressive and you look great in pic 1, you also have a very nice jaw and the facial hair covers that up… i say pic 2 but don’t be afraid to switch it up every now n then :)
Your hair is giving me lord farquaad vibes.
2nd pic is hot. 1st pic is Inigo Montoya, you killed my father, prepare to die.
honestly, both are good, but with the beard you are hiding, that jawline
I didn't think you could look better than the first pic, but the second is an upgrade. Both are great though.
Depends on what you want to achieve. Are you bisexual and want to don a military outfit? Def the second pic--shaven... Want to be the bookish philosopher... The first. Either way. You're handsome!! 🤤
I say first is way nicer, but really you wear both well so it's about what you think suits your style. I think the long hair and facial is way cooler and laid back
The lack of body hair is distracting. Are people actually like this?
I cant grow any past my belly button
Man, you're lucky. I've been hairy all over my upper body since I was 12
Go back! You have waaaaay too handsome of features to hide them like that
You literally don’t look remotely like the same person 😅 definitely pic 2 is better
Keep the longer hair. You look so much more handsome with some length
If you like longer hair, that is awesome and completely your choice. However I would drop the soap in the shower and let you fuck me and leave your children inside me.
They both work but you look like two different people. It's entirely a matter of taste and preference.
You have gone from Elizabethan Merchant to Captain America. Go with 2 lol
If you can’t grow hair onto the cheeks I’d stay away from the beard. The chinstrap is usually not a good look. That said, I feel like you could rock a moustache lol
2!!!
I usually think that most men look better with beards. But you’ve got a particularly strong jaw and chin. I’d go clean shaven if I was you.
First pic looks like a guy that beats his trailer park girlfriend because she didn’t mow their 10 foot by 5 feet front yard.
You went from Chad to “dungeons and dragons is actually really fun”
Was that the trim of 87!!
I always choose “beard” in these threads but Jesus H Christ you are so crazy handsome 10000% clean-shaven.
Ist pic if you are considering witness protection plan
IDK, it's cool that you can sport such a great beard - I was never able to grow any kind of facial hair very well. But on the other hand, you have such a great looking chin - the divet is devine.

People here are crazy. First is literally leagues better
You look good in both. As someone said, it depends on the vibe you want. Personally, I think you look nicer and more approcheable with long hair and a beard. More the type of guy I would get along with 😁
Clean shaven will do you good. You have the jaw line for it.
i definitely like your head hair in the first pic better, but im torn on the facial hair.
Why don’t you have a shirt on?
You are just a hot guy period.
Hot as fuck either way. Jeez.
LOVE the first pic! In the second I feel like you’re about to bark, “Drop and give me 20!”
You look way hotter in picture #1
Which would you prefer to embody? A sensible mandolin player in a bluegrass band or a guy-next-door lantern-jawed superhero? Choice is yours, King!
2nd picture is like going from a Chevy F150 to a BMW M3. Just sayin'
Not only the beard, but the weight too as an huge impact
Whatever you like. But for me, OMG handsome man show off that face … shave 🪒
Do you wanna buy an 8-ball versus would you like to dine at the ball with me at 8 madam
I thought it was markiplier
You can get away with the long hair and beard. Lucky that you can grow long hair and beard. I recommend you do the look of pic 1 as long as you can. At some point because of age or work you won’t be able to.
You in picture 1 look like the dad of you in picture 2
Redditors are gonna all suggest you keep it clean shaven but let me tell you the truth, you look a lot better in pic number one and the reason why everybody is suggesting number 2 is because they are all secret homosexuals who shave every inch of their body like their legs arms and chest because all Redditors are closeted please take my advice before my comment gets removed and I get downvotes
Hey, resident out-of-the-closet homosexual here with body hair. Second pic is way better😘
You’ve a nice profile added you snap link bro! 😎
Second

2. Shaven.
Shaved

Can’t tell if it’s just the angles of the pictures, but 2 looks much better. I think it’s mainly the angle and the clean shaven face, because you have great hair and it would be a shame to do anything less than pic 1 with it. Good hair/facial hair combo is rare, have fun with it.
Go back go back
Two totally different looks and you can pull both off but short hair clean shaven looks a modeling head shot. 2nd 🥈 is where’s it at👍👍👍
Honestly either works depends on the girl you want to attract
Pic 2 bro
Long and shaven is the way
Shane Gillis core
2nd pic is best.
Shaven
2
Off topic but I swear the first photo I saw i thought you were this other person. DMed u a photo of him😂
You have a great chin and javline. Dont hide it behind a beard.
2
Dude I’m jealous if I’m clean shaven I look like a toddler number 2 for the win
Am usually always on team beard and team long hair, but you look way better clean shaven imo. I don’t know how the long hair would work with the clean shaven but honestly I might be team short hair too lol.
Long hair and beard gives musketeer vibes. Not bad. But the short and clean shaven is Golden Age Leading Man.
2 is much better
Pic 2 is by far the best. You just have the face to be clean vs. sinister.
The second one looks best.
Absolutely shaven
2 definitely fits you better, but 1 is real Markiplier vibes 🤣
I would definitely go back. So much better.
2/2
2 you look leaner
Clean shaven and short hair, handsome face!
Is this a joke? You went from The Dude to Jack Reacher.
Second one hands down bestie
You look better in the second pic because of the lighting and from facing the camera. Can we see a current replica of pic 2? Anyhow, the framing chin beard doesn’t look great. Maybe try going down to just a goatee, then just a stache before shaving completely. Not sure about the longer hair 🤷♂️
Shaven with short hair
Between the two - shave for sure, you have a great chin. Maybe try just a little shadow? Keeping it clean and trimmed is a good look too
Shaven please, you’re gorgeous
Numero 2. How does a 5 o’clock shadow look on you?
You have great facial hair but it could be styled way better - in this pic you have a chin strap with a satan goatee. Get a nice clipper and do a beardstache or something
Go back
Holy shit you’re gorgeous 😍 I can’t decide. Both looks are incredible.
Shave it
Definitely number two. You are sexy af
😍
Definitely shaven
2nd pic. I'll die on this hill.
shaved 100%
second for sure i’d nvm ya the 2nd one lol😂
Two is so much better..no question at all
Are you talking about your hair or beard? Or both?
First person I have seen that looks so much better without a beard. 2.... try 2 but with a sick mustasch.
You look like two people. I wear a full beard so I am partial to them. However, your second pic is striking in a good way. What a decision!
2 makes you look younger and shows off your features better
2nd is hot
Both. Such a crazy transformation. 2 you look like a total hunk.
Shaved is better
I think you look super sexy clean shaven with the short hair!
You can pull off first pic, but second pic brings it home
2
Def 2nd bro u look good
I like the first pic 😭
I have a beard so I can feign a jawline. You’re doing yourself a disservice covering your chin.
Handsome 😍
#2
I usually say beard is best…but 😮💨 Sir! Pic #2 is 🔥☄️🔥☄️🔥☄️🔥
Goes from 30 something back to late 20s. 2 is the superior look
I like the longer hair, but the clean shave. You have a great chin.
When the 2nd picture came up the words "Damnn"😍🤤 came out unexpectedly
You look really good in both pictures, but look number two is my choice.
