Girls: do you think guys look better with a beard, stubble or clean shaven?

Which do you find most attractive in general?

Or do you think it's down to how facial hair looks on a particular individual. I'm asking because i've noted i've had considerably more femal attention since I started keeping a dark stubble.

I'm pretty sure it's about down to my new style since i've always dressed well and have a buff physique.

Maybe it makes me look tougher and more hardcore?

Personally i prefer clean shaven but light stubble can be cute. depends if hes shaven it into a style. A friend of mine likes his stubble but hes kept it very tidy. looks nice

It really does depend on the guy I think. Some lot really hot with stubble, but others look much better clean shaven. Sorry, not much help there, but if you've been getting more attention, it must be good! :p:

I think it depends on the guy himself. Some guys look good with stubble, some dont. The same also applies to the other options. Sometimes stubble is hot!!! :biggrin:

I think you're right abouut it depending on the person.

eg I dunno if anyone watches wwe but edges new look really makes him look hardcore (no homo). I'm thinking of growing a beard like that just too....
I think it depends on the guy in question.
I like my boyfriend clean shaven though :smile:
I have a beard atm. I really want a girl to feel it, I'm seeing some female friends in a couple of weeks so they'll be all over it. But if their is anyone in the home counties and London area who wants to feel a guys beard for an afternoon (maybe we can have a lunch and chat aswell) PM me. I can come to you, or if you can travel we can meet half way, I'm flexible.
anything but a beard
MY VIEW:
clean shaven =yes
little stubble =yes!
lots of stubble= depends on the guy
beards =nevEr ever ever!
Clean shaven

Beard>Clean-shaven>Stubble.

I find designer stubble pointless and annoying. However, many men fail at growing beards due to age or ethnic group. If you can grow a good beard, do it - they are the most awesome thing on the planet and if it wasn't for my damned gender I'd have one. If you can't grow one, clean-shaven is better than a pretentious bit of not bothering to shave.

Not all at the same time btw! Lol! 1/3 stubble, 1/3 beard and 1/3 clean - would look a bit silly, no? :wink:

It really depends on the guy, but generally...I like stubble / bit of facial hair but not a full-on beard :smile:

Stubble :smile:
Only when it's proper stubble though.. no fluffy wannabe stubble.
Beards are a no go in my opinion.
Clean shaven, meh.
