Ok so this is a interesting topic I think you must at least have a short clean cut beard, but better luck if you are clean shaved, I grew a beard last winter and it was gone the minute spring came. take TV commercials they are advertising with clean shaved men with short hair, I don't no if any one watches golf but Mike Weir grew a beard for the PGA playoffs and the next week it was gone he took heat from the PGA. you don't see it in the spot light. it ain't like the good old days where a nice clean cut beard was fashionable.
