Body language of facial hair: There are plenty of reasons why men have facial hair. Sometimes you will see men with long or short beards, moustaches, lamb chops or anything similar. The nonverbal communication can vary from no reason to having a good purpose as to hide from someone or something. When looking at the body language or nonverbal communicaiton you will always want to base line the man or men that you are looking at.
There are a few things to look for and that is:
- · How trimmed is it
- · Is it done for fun or can you figure out a reason
- · How does it help the man create an identit
Body language of facial hair and social norm: As of right now in the spring of 2012 having a beard is the cool thing to do. There are plenty of musicians right now who have short beards. The fashion magazines right now have men with facial hair. A few years back the cool thing to do was to have a shaved head and a goatee. For some this would be a way to help with maintaining or creating an identity.
Body language of facial hair authority figures: Sometimes you will see authority figures with facial hair whether it is a moustache or something similar to a goatee. There is the belief that a man with either of these items can be used to intimidate people becasue it may hide facial expressions. It is really common to see state troopers with facial hair. For firemen it is a tradition and there are some times where the guys in the firehouse have a competition. These facial hair competitions are also common in some militaries.
Body language of facial hair and comfort: You may see men with a little facial hair and it may be for no other reason than that they didn’t want to shave. There is no reason to read into this. You may see this happen on any given day. For some it’s because they got up late, for some they may have skin that get irrigated easily and for some there is no reason they don’t have to.

Some may say that this type of using the facial hair to hide from life. Now there are some regions of the world where long beards are just a custom and it would be strange to not have one.
Body language of facial hair and religion: Now there are some religions that use facial hair as part of religious ceremonies and commitments in a case where a man uses his facial hair as o covenant there really isn’t a social reason why they do so.

I SO dislike facial hair. To me, a clean shaven man says ready to do business and I am well groomed.

For most people you encounter, how many would be using their facial hair as a way to tell people something?

I used to be completely anti facial hair. I live in the land of interesting and ironic facial hair as well as the flannel capitol of the U.S. When I see a man with unkempt facial hair, I wonder why they don’t bother to groom themselves. But a bald man with a well-trimmed goatee will always get second glances from me.

I can see where facial hair could be used to hide behind. Thanks.

My husband has a full beard – he grew it on holiday and then decided he liked not shaving! Luckily he keeps it neat. I hadn’t thought of facial hair as being part of body language.

Hi Scott,
I find that many modern single women are used men with no facial hair, whereas the very ability to grow facial hair in sideburns, mustache, and beards is a very masculine attribute. Many of the GenX and GenY men have re-embraced sporting some facial hair by growing and cultivating a modified goatee. When the men’s facial hair is neat and trimmed, it can be quite fun and flirtatious for a woman to lightly scratch it while she is in her man’s arms when they are cuddling, cooing, and kissing. Many men from the more naturalist and hippie areas grew full beards as do Stanley Cup playing hockey teams. Growing a significan Stanley Cup Hockey beard is part of the whole NHL culture in the Spring time. Hockey fans jest about it.

Facial hair, something to hide behind…or to be noticed? Tricky one methinks.
Scott,
I have no idea what it means, but in my country, when somebody dies – during the 40 day mourning period, men do not shave. Always wondered.

Very interesting, Scott … especially the changes in the military and facial hair. It used to be it was forbidden because it inhibited a tight seal around the face to gas masks … guess we grew out of worry about gases.
I think a lot of it has to do with the type of profession, in the business world, we do not see very many people with facial hair.

I fall into the category of “hate to shave”. But ironically I always feel much better AFTER I have shaved.

So interesting! I wouldn’t have considered facial hair as an expression of body language!

When I see an unkempt long beard I always wonder why they have it that way. I think they must be bucking the system for some reason.
