What happens when a chin becomes a head and one's scalp assumes the stubble? The Something Awful Weird Beards collection explores the full extent of the many peculiar results of such a Photoshop swap.
In the past, the website's Forum Goons have shared 'DogBeards' and 'Chinanimals' with similar and strange shaggy outcomes, but the graduation to human subjects has lead to some pretty hairy situations. Reversing the cropped coif of Natalie Portman with an apparent peach fuzz, alongside the new looks of Leonardo DiCaprio, John Travolta, Samuel L. Jackson and even Albert Einstein, the Something Awful Weird Beards collection is a photographic freak show that will leave you wanting more.
