I thought a beard to go with a shaven head was the current in thing.
(Note: neither of those is me. I have hair on top of my head, and shave my face when the mood hits me, usually once or twice a week, especially if it is getting itchy.)
If mustache, then a Tom Selleck mustache at a minimum. Pornstaches are terrible. Old-timey British army officer and Indian army mustaches are magnificent.
I wanted to say the Worf, a VanDyke or chinstrap with that clean upper lip, but looking at images for Star Trek beards online, I really admire the Riker. Dignified, clean, masculine. But if you’re wearing a Klingon battle sash you can get away with any look you like.
I’ve worn a full beard (neatly trimmed) for most of the last 40 years. There was a period where it started going grey in patches - I did not like the look so I shaved. But now it is pretty uniformly salt-and pepper so I’ve grown it back and will keep it for the time being.
I’ve been toying with the idea of picking up a Greek fisherman’s cap to complete the look
Facial hair is not supposed to be cool, it serves an important function as a nature’s balaclava in keeping one’s face warm. If facial hair is “cool” you don’t have enough of it, and it’s in the wrong spot. Unrelated to that, how about Amazon’s logo update?
Wolfman, from just below my eyes to my chest hair. But my wife prefers a clear, clean face.

I like the Dr. Strange look.
Just a normal beard, kept short but not stubbly, trimmed on the edges but not with those silly severe lines outside of the natural beard lines.
What no monobrow?
It varies, depending on the face.

@dannybeans Well we know what ass he has been kissing.
A 2-day Clooney stubble. SWMBO calls it the “more rubbin for the nubbin” look.
@mike808
Mine complains if it gets too much scratch for her sn… well, you get the point…

@macromeh
I loved mine, but sadly left it in the airport in Boston on my last visit, dammit!
(if you find it you can have it…)
Soul Patch…ask my wife
@somf69 you have the soul patch, not your wife, right? Cool either way, just curious.
@njfan
maybe both, but in different locations?
@somf69 The Tips Fedora of facial hair.

@rogerbacon
those are obviously ‘bangs’…
I prefer a clean-shaven face, but if I have to choose a style, I’d go with the van dyke.
@die13lda So a clean shaven young Dick tops a hairy Anthony when choosing which Van Dyke hair model sits on your face?
