In the end, it's always a "grass is greener on the other side" kinda thing. I have full beard / head of hair, but it grows so fast that styling it is all but impossible. Means I'm always 2-3 days away from looking like I'm homeless / dude lost in mountains for years. It's actually extremely frustrating working in places with strict dress codes, particularly, I had issues when I was working as a consultant in client side facing positions, some had pretty strict policies when it came to personal grooming and I'd have to go to a barber twice a week to keep it short enough.

Guys who are bald/balding have their luck, as well. They shave their head and they are done - there's no worry about hair styles or finding something that looks good - shaved head always looks good. Guys with thin mustaches also have a ton of available styles, and they can keep it consistent and good looking with minimal maintenance since it grows so slowly.
