Yesterday I passed a barbershop and saw ads on their wall outside of men with beards and short hair. It is a revival or saving electricity ?

    Could be recency bias, could be that fashion is a cycle that repeats and old fashions are rediscovered. Could be laziness because at some point it becomes easier to trim a beard once every month than shave everyday.

    Some people’s skin also can’t handle daily trauma from razors.

    It also looks more interesting than a vanilla clean shave, imo. People might be looking to stand out for that reason.

        Same. I shaved mine a while back and my best friend was blunt - “You look better with the beard”.

        Righto. Beard it is.

          Same here. I used to shave my head and face but recently I went through a period of over-work and didn’t have time to shave. Everyone told me I looked better with hair and beard, including the wife. So hair and beard it is then
