The GQ Modern Man's Guide to Beards Provides Direction

— November 10, 2011 — Fashion
The GQ Modern Man's Guide to Beards provides those looking to sport the Movember look with a bit more direction.

From Cary Grant to Paul Newman, for years the best looking men have been clean cut. Parted hair and clean shaven jaws have reigned supreme. Thanks to people like Zach Galifinakis, Ben Roethlisberger and David Beckham, the beard has made its way onto the modern gentleman's face.

Now, thanks to GQ's very own style guru, Glenn O'Brien, you too can sport a face sweater in style. This handy guide will show you what beards work, and which ones just look plain scary, with examples that range from Tom Ford to Keeanu Reeves.

Whether you sport a full wizard's beard or are just rocking the stubble, the GQ Modern Man's Guide to Beards is for you.

Beard on, gentlemen.
