Down the road after people had been in church a while I’ve had plenty of them tell me that they know the reason they have had facial hair is because it either of identified them with something or it was pride deal . If it doesn’t have anything to do with the 2 then people would have not one issue shaving it. I’ve been in sales for years and being shaven has also been drilled into me. This is from the world they teach us in, in home sales that people will trust you more being clean shaven. This is not just in California I have attended classes in different states and that is the norm for in home sales people. Even most large service companies have implemented a clean shaven standard ( although in the last 3-4 years I have been seeing a shift in this ). No matter what people tell us we all “ profile “ people. I want to do my best to present myself Holy and acceptable to God. I represent him when I’m in public.
