The fact that growing a well-maintained beard is essentially a life hack into becoming something of a hunk. Of course, beards aren't for everyone and patchy beards certainly aren't as desirable as a full, luscious one.
Regardless, beards have become de rigeur over the last couple of years, and it seems nigh on impossible to walk down the street without being confronted with hirsute man after hirsute man.
Here, though, are some celebrities who got rid of their beards and, in doing so, instantly transported themselves back to childhood.

Proof, as if you needed it, that shaving off your beard is a bold, bold, move that could transport you back to looking like a kid. Shave at your own risk.
