The following actors should always be involved in hairy situations.
When it comes to their faces, that is.
Because while some men look disheveled and unprofessional while rocking a beard and/or a mustache, these men manage to look more distinguished and dapper.
Don’t you agree? (Yes, it does help that they are exceptional human specimens to begin with, we acknowledge this.)
Bradley Cooper
Unlike many men, Bradley Cooper looks more put together and somehow better groomed when he does have a beard and mustache.
Gerard Butler
That first guy? We’re not scared of him at all. That secod guy? Yikes! He could lead a small army into battle… and win!
Kit Harington
We would not follow a shaven Jon Snow into battle. But we’d die on The Wall if Kit Harington sported a beard and then asked us to.
Joe Manganiello
The dude on the left is sweet and innocent. The guy on the right will bend you over the bed and… nevermind.
Ryan Gosling
Ryan Gosling adds a hint of maturity and sexuality when he grows out his facial hair, wouldn’t you say?
Johnny Depp
Really, Depp simply looks best as Captain Jack Sparrow. But he has a beard!
Michael Fassbender
Look at that copper-toned beard! It’s perfect!
Jude Law
An important note here: Jude Law looks better with a beard AND mustache. But if he’s just going with the latter, he should go all the way and shave it all off.
Hugh Jackman
This is a close one. But the facial hair wins due to Hugh Jackman’s best role, that of Wolverine, and the large quanities of hair it entails.
Chris Hemsworth
This is an interesting one: Hemsworth looks better with less hair on his head, but more hair on his face. Crazy, right?!?
Ian Somerhalder
Not too much facial hair, Ian Somerhalder! The actor should just always be wearing a five o’clock shadow.
Chris Pine
Chris Pine looks too young with a bare face. The beard brings out his mature side.
Ben Affleck
Really, Affleck should should grow out his facial hair as much as possible in order to be unrecognizable to women who want to kill him for cheating on Jennifer Garner.
Keanu Reeves
WHOA! Don’t take whatever pill make you lose your facial hair, Keanu Reeves.
Ashton Kutcher
We like him better with a beard. But Ashton Kutcher should go with whatever look Mila Kunis likes best.
Jake Gyllenhaal
Jake Gyllenhaal has started to rock facial hair as his career has advanced to more gritty roles. Probably not a coincidence.
Seth Rogen
Seth Rogen is big and silly and goofy. So the more hair he has, the crazier he looks, the more it all works for him.
Brad Pitt
What can we say, the scruff works!
Jared Leto
Leto is one to embrace his wild side. So is there any reason for him to ever shave again, really?
Jon Hamm
Jon Hamm is simply too perfect when unshaven. We need to see some imperfections on this guy!
Joaquin Phoenix
Just kidding.
