No, but most guys with beards are filled with vanity and pride. Those are sins. Look at some posts in this thread and you'll see vanity and pride. Guys don't grow beards for functionality, they grow them for vanity. They keep them trim and neat out of vanity and pride.

In my opinion, I think this is why there is kind of a no beard rule, even if it's not preached.
It seems that the main reasons men wear beards are either out of laziness, pride, or vanity. Sometimes the beards are either scraggly, unkempt beards, or perfectly trimmed goatees, soul patches, etc. I even see the trend now where they have men straightening their beards with flat irons.
I never heard my preacher preach against beards or facial hair, but the men are usually clean shaven, or have a modest mustache.
