Will growing a beard boost my SMV?

I've read a bunch of studies on this topic (and I do mean I actually read the studies, not a summary somewhere). The overall consensus is that heavy stubble is the most attractive facial hair for short-term relationships (Alpha Fucks).

That's what I have, and it's been a smash hit. My Tinder matches noticeably surged after I began sporting this look.

A full beard is usually a negative for attractiveness, unless your face is somewhat feminized (weak jawline, weak chin, etc.) In that case a full beard basically just covers up unattractive features.

At the end of the day, this is just one of those things where you should experiment and see what works for you.

In general, if you keep a well-groomed beard, you’ll be perceived as older and wiser. My harem girls love nuzzling their faces in my full beard - Although I have been warned not to grow it out to “grandfather length.”

It goes without saying don’t do something stupid like grow a “homeless guy” beard, or wear a “chin strap”, or anything that might be described as a “Wolfman“ beard. If there are any questions, google “The Trustworthiness of Beards.”

The redpill describes the age of 35 as a man's peak SMV. Soif you're under 35 and have a good growth, go for it! It makes you look older thus more attractive at this age. When you're over 35, try to look younger and shave. I have a full beard and clean it up on the sides, girls love it and I get girls that are 1-4 years older then me ( I'm 21 ). But some friends of mine who are a bit older (32-33) get the same type of girls while having a clean shave.

Depends on a few things. Is your beard thick and full? Shape of your face. How long you want it to grow....

I'm balding so I shave my head. But fortunately I have a very thick dark beard and it makes me look 10 times better. Unfortunately I had to shave it for a temporary job and I noticed that female attention has dropped. But try it out and see how "you" like it. Trust me, there will be many who hate it. But fuck 'em.

Read a study that took a few thousand men. Women looked at them and rated their appearance. Stubble is the preferred look then beards. Clean shaven took dead last of the options.

Grow it if you can, I have had one for a few months now and wayyy more people like it versus clean shaven. Wish I did this years ago. You have to manage it though.

Keep it neat and tidy and it turns most women on like crazy.

It's different. My face looks best clean shaven as I'm a but feminine by nature. A small stubble won't do harm, but in the end it all comes down to what you think is the best.
