Top 10 United States Presidents with the Best Facial Hair

The Top Ten
1 Abraham Lincoln He had a distinct chinstrap beard that framed his jawline without a mustache, a style that became iconic during his presidency The beard connected from ear to ear along the chin, leaving the rest of his face clean-shaven

Best. I love Abe. No joke, he saved America with his beard, for God's sake.

Lincoln is smart, intelligent, and has the best facial hair ever.

Lincoln was the first president to have a beard.

2 William Howard Taft He sported a thick mustache that covered his upper lip and extended outward, blending into his robust and rounded features The rest of his face was clean-shaven, creating a contrast between his facial hair and smooth cheeks

Without his mustache or any other president's mustache, especially his, no one would be crazy or be here today.

Oh my God, that is the best mustache of all time. No wonder he became president.

Taft has the best mustache ever!

3 Theodore Roosevelt His mustache was bushy and thick, with ends that curled slightly upwards, sitting prominently above his upper lip He otherwise maintained a clean-shaven face, emphasizing the fullness of the mustache

Okay, now this one is funny. He has a funny mustache.

He is a great man and has an awesome mustache!

Theodore's mustache is magical!

4 Rutherford B. Hayes His full beard covered his chin, cheeks, and upper lip, creating a dense and uniform facial hair pattern The beard was thick and rounded, blending smoothly into the shape of his face without sharp lines or contrasts

Beards are amazing. Especially this guy's beard.

Hayes has the best beard ever!

Really great beard.

5 Chester Arthur He wore long, mutton chop sideburns that stretched down to his jaw, but his chin and upper lip remained clean-shaven The sideburns were thick and distinctive, framing his face on both sides

Amazing sideburns. He took facial hair to a whole new level and set the standard for American facial hair.

He used to be my favorite president because of his facial hair. I never judged him on anything else.

Greatest sideburns my eyes have ever seen.

6 Grover Cleveland He wore a full, neatly trimmed mustache that sat above his upper lip, while his chin and cheeks were kept free of facial hair The mustache had a defined shape, standing out clearly against his otherwise smooth face

Best mustache in the world!

Best. Moustache. Ever.

7 James Garfield His face was adorned with a full, bushy beard that covered his chin, cheeks, and upper lip in a rugged and voluminous style The beard grew evenly across his face, blending into his sideburns

Whaaat! This guy has a vertical beard with the most awesome point ever! Deserves to be 2nd, after Lincoln.

8 Ulysses Grant His full beard was thick and untrimmed, covering his chin, cheeks, and upper lip in a rough but commanding style The facial hair extended evenly across his face, giving him a bearded appearance from every angle
9 Benjamin Harrison He had a closely cropped beard that covered his chin, cheeks, and upper lip, with a slightly trimmed and orderly appearance The beard was evenly distributed across his face, framing his features without overwhelming them
10 John Quincy Adams He wore long, bushy sideburns that framed the sides of his face, but his chin and upper lip were completely clean-shaven The sideburns created a strong visual line along his jaw and cheeks

He looks like a bird.

The Contenders
11 Martin Van Buren His facial hair consisted of thick, curly mutton chops that extended down his cheeks but left his chin and upper lip bare The sideburns were prominent, giving his face a distinctive, framed look

He looks like a mad scientist. I like it.

He looks like a buzzard.
