Is facial hair unprofessional?

[crazies alt]

i'd even go so far as to call it a crazy haircut

90% of facial hair styles are unprofessional and will probably get you denied a job if you show up to an interview with one. the safest option is to shave it and get a fresh cut for formal events.

if you have a $200 shaving kit and you know how to maintain a shave then just google professional facial hair styles and try to pull that off

Most people who grow beards either look like rednecks or homeless hipsters. Clean shaven will look professional for sure. Like you have some sort of idea what basic hygiene is.

Op should post a pic so we can decide if it's pro or not

[RedGajin]

whether it's professional or not totally depends on how it looks. very long facial hair will never be professional tho. regardless, it sounds like you're young and prolly applying for entry-level minimum wage jobs that don't really care about whether the teenage kid has a little facial hair or not.

as long as it's trimmed and sharp looking I think it's fine

Meanwhile in the UK nobody has a problem with facial hair in any regard and you can just do whatever you want so long as it isn't offensive because we're not idiots who would stigmatise a natural part of the male physiology. That'd be like women being refused for jobs because they don't cut their hair with a no.3 razor

[Dreams_Of_Cheese]

yeah i'd say thats professional enough

[Nonnel]

yeah that looks fine
I don't like beards myself but I wouldn't consider them unprofessional

I think it depends on just how well kempt it is, if you just grow a bush on your face then it's totally unprofessional

[Daswiruch]

kind of but not really related: professionalism is forgetin outdated and i wish the whole suit and tie thing for jobs would die off and everybody just wears jeans and tshirt or whatnot
