The Timeline of Egyptian Leading Men’s Facial Hair

As women, we’re naturally fond of beards and the variations thereof. Science says so. And as Egyptian women, we pay exceptionally close attention to our leading men’s beards and the variations thereof. Why? Because there is a pattern. Egyptian heartthrobs had an evolution of beards which we cannot ignore. Ever since…

 

 

The 1950s

The 50s included lots of moustaches, mostly the Clark Gable, pencil ‘stache. This was sported by dashing men such as:


Anwar Wagdy


Emad Hamdy

 

“The Gable moustache was replaced by a thicker, more Egyptian version.”

The 1960s

The Gable moustache was replaced by a thicker, more Egyptian version. And the ladies loved it. We must say, general taste was still intact back then.


Ahmed Mazhar


Roshdy Abaza

 

“Sideburns became a thing. They were popular again for the first time since the 1800s.”

The 1970s

This is when things started going south. Sideburns became a thing. They were popular again for the first time since the 1800s. And no one considered why they were unpopular for so long. This era’s heartthrobs donned their sideburns bare-faced or while also sporting the ever-so-attractive handlebar moustache.

The 1980s-199s

Thankfully, sideburns were gone. However, moustaches were still going strong. Bigger than ever!

“At that point, men realized the pointlessness of underlining their noses using moustaches. And this is when we started seeing beards.”

The 2000s

At that point, men realized the pointlessness of underlining their noses using moustaches. And this is when we started seeing beards. Unfortunately, they were either coupled with lots of lipstick, creepy stares and fluffy, red pillows…


Tamer Hosny

Or it was coupled with an impeccable caveman impression…

The 2010s

There’s still hope, though. Because recently, we’ve been seeing beard-sporting gentlemen worthy of praise. General taste is starting to get better! All thanks to men who know the seriousness of having a beard.
