In their study, the researchers altered pictures of 15 men’s faces so that they showed various degrees of hairiness, using latest computer technology. Five levels of facial hair were used – clean-shaven, light stubble, heavy stubble, light beard and full beard.
The pictures were shown to 76 women who were asked to rate them for masculinity, aggression, dominance, age, social maturity and attractiveness. They were asked how desirable each man would be as a short-term or long-term partner.
The participants rated men with stubble as tough, mature, aggressive, dominant and masculine – and as the best romantic partners, either for a fling or even for a long-term relationship, the researchers found. Though faces with full beards were chosen to be the most masculine, aggressive and socially mature, they’re rated the least attractive and worst choice for a short-term fling.

And what’s surprising is that clean-shaven men finished bottom for masculinity, dominance, aggression, and social maturity, and they were the least favoured choice as a long-term partner. They’re second-to-last for attractiveness.

“Facial hair may have been sexually selected by females on the basis of associated male success, despite its threatening appearance. Clean-shaven faces, therefore, suggest appeasement and being an obvious sign of sexual immaturity”
