bearded link appreciation post GMM s11 edition #letlinkhaveabeard2k18

Now, I know this could incite a lively debate, but I just need to lay down my feelings about Link Neal’s face. The man can do what he likes with it and the hair that grows from it, it is his face after all, but I’m just going to outline the options he has experimented with in my specific order of preference. 

6. Fake Beard

Now this look has some merit at times, he can make it work. He’s Link, he can make anything work if we’re being honest here. But he can do better, and he does.

5. Mustache

Listen. I know some of y’all are goin’ hog wild for the dang ‘stache, but it just leaves me wishing his chin was covered in the stuff. All derivatives of this look leave me with the same feeling: more or less face fur, Neal. Choose.

4. Goatee 

I know this is a classic, and everyone loves the smarm of high school/college Link, but it doesn’t even come close to topping this list.

3. Clean Shaven

The stand-by. The classic. The ussssseeee. The man’s been gifted with an attractive mug, no facial hair necessary, really. Rock that jawline, Linkle ;)

2. Bearded

Many of you might have expected to find this look in the number one spot. I mean, it’s BEARDED Link for goodness sake! But listen, while this gorgeousness is fantastic, it cannot top #1 in my books.
