Companies have funded research/studies on what the majority of people like more and tend to feel more comfortable with.
Less facial hair, less tattoos, less piercings, shorter hair, and nicer clothes continually get better responses.
So with skills, personalities, and everything else equal. The person with less facial hair has better odds of making more sales.

That is why he wants yoy with less beard.
Now I don't know where you're at but over 70% of people I live and work around are clean shaven. The most of the facial hair types have GTs.

"Oh forgot to mention me.
From about 15-34 I always had a mustache.
Then shaved for my wife.
Now in the summer I shave twice a week or more and keep a military cut.
In winter I grow a GT to a full facial and let my hair grow out."

"All of this is dead true."

"Used to keep my head shaved, always have had a GT, used to keep the goat long enough to braid...lol, now i've grown my hair out long, it's about shoulder length now and the goat is a little shorter, in winter I let the full beard grow in.

"I used to have long hair. Obviously short while serving. But otherwise it was usually middle of back long in a pony tail. Some times braided.
Only for a few months did I shave the head. Mama and the kids thought I looked like a thug/skin head.
But I'm going bald and I hate bald guys with a pony tail and or long hair. Looks like a pathetic attempt at staying young. lol
But thats me "
