Men with light, well kept stubble are more attractive than men with a full beard or the clean shaven look, according to a new report by Beard Psychologist Dr Julian Oldmeadow.

Dr Julian Oldmeadow explains that "the lighter, carefully groomed styles may be the most attractive because they strike the right balance".

"Beards are directly associated with perceptions of masculinity, dominance, aggressiveness and maturity, while clean shaven men are seen as more warm and caring."

So, beards are good, but you can have too much of a good thing? Whatever you go for, make sure it suits your face and that itÂ’s well groomed - unruly straggly beards are a complete no-no.
