Beards aren’t just for gay men anymore. What started as manly scruff has grown into a full-on beard trend, as indie stars rock facial hair like they’re Greek philosophers. From the Foo Fighters’ front man Dave Grohl to Jake Gyllenhaal and Justin Timberlake, razors in Hollywood seem to be strictly for below the belt. Even Entourage’s Adrian Grenier was just spotted looking fine with more fuzz than a chia pet, while baby-faced Disney star Shia LaBeouf is all grown up with whiskers on the set of his new movie Eagle Eye. Although the wave of hair has swept up so many, there has been one casualty: Ryan Gosling. He recently shaved and sure, he’s so sweet we’ll always want him to impregnate us. But Ryan, while your career might be strong, the beard has got to make a comeback. We like our men looking like lumberjacks, it makes us think of wood.
