I have always been a big fan of facial hair.

The question I offer to Iwaku is this.

What is your favorite facial hair style and why?
 
I'm happy with clean-shaven or a bit of stubble, thanks. XP
 
I also enjoy stubble, something my boyfriend eternally has. Otherwise, the handlebar mustache, though rare, makes me squeal like a little girl. They make me want to get into my best flapper dress and smoke virginia slims. . /// .
Right now, my boyfriend is just going with full on beard and it's not growing in very well (please don't tell him I said such a thing, his manly pride would take such a dive!). So, I wish he would trim it into a goatee or something.
 
I LOVE WHEN I GET TO STEAL GIBS' STUFF AND USE IT!

I am a huge fan of stubble. It's sexy as hell.

I used to hate beards in general, but Gibs made me like them. D: He's had a variation of different beard styles now, and my favorite so far is the classic full beard.
 
I don't know about all those avant-garde stashes, haha!

But I like a beard on a guy if he can pull the look off! Some guys look really good with beards/facial hair !

For example, October's slightly unshaven-dunno-what-its-called-but it looks really superstar-good! but don't tell him I told you ;)

EDIT: In Dananachan's picture, the Trustworthy Chinstrap & the threatening Neck Beard are the same.... T_T
 
No, no, Saki, it just looks that way~ <3 As one who is affectionate toward facial hair, I shall help you!
Neckbeard
Chinstrap!

They're almost similar, but the neckbeard is more... neck oriented. The chinstrap is strip (generally fairly thin) of facial hair following the jawline.
 
I prefer clean-shaved faces by default.

However, some faces seem to look better with facial hair. It's hard to tell which style, as it depends on the face itself.
But paying a bit of attention I could say I have a tendency towards chinstrap, or goatee w/without mustache. Sometimes stubble looks good but sometimes it does not. Generally speaking, avoid the bushy look too.

As a general rule, if the face looks aged or mature, I will like it more with facial hair in it. The younger looking the face, the less hair on it I'd like to see, thanks. Generalizing, remember.

So far two guys I like more ALWAYS with facial hair on, and these are Sean Connery and Hugh Jackman.
They're so hot... but shaved look so wrong!
 
Hm, I can see the men lurking here, taking frantics notes. XDD

I don't particularly like facial hair on men buuut Pheonix somehow pulls it off. I love stubble on him, and he has this little neck beard going on. (He somehow isn't capable of growing a mustache.) Clean shaven he looks really young, almost baby face, but once his beard comes out I can't stop staring. >.<
 
I've always enjoyed the look of muttonchops for being rarely seen and therefor unique. By my standards, a sideburn is anything grown down from the sideburns, but once they start to turn across the cheek, they're muttonchops. Plus, as I learned as I matured, it's really the only facial hair I can grow, I don't think I could grow a good looking mustache and there's not enough hair for me to grow a goatee. I don't really want either those anyway.

So now I just have a bushy pair of muttonchops extending across my cheek and ending a little less than a finger's width from my lips. Can't grow anything to connect them to a mustache, but again, don't want to.
 
I am actually surprised more guys aren't in here. xD

*puts away notepad*
 
I have always been a fan of a little scruff, not sure why. By scruff I mean more than just stubble, which can also be very nice.
It really depends on the gent, whether he can pull it off or not.
Though I can't say I've found anyone with a rather long beard attractive.
As long as its close to the face it can really soften bold chins and jawlines, and be all manly.

Every self-respecting beard/mutton chop wearer smokes a pipe.
 
I prefer to either be perfectly clean shaven if I have long hair.

Since I've been barred from ever having a ponytail again, I make do with either 3 days of stubble. However, THAT gets barred because I have to look professional.

THEREFORE, I usually triapse about the hospital with a goatee.
 
This is my favorite beard because it makes people look like a general.

*strokes my fake beard* Indeed it does.
