Zac Efron Debuts a Beard: Love It or Hate It?

First he shared the secret to his tousled locks, then he changed up his style to create his own brand of faux-hawk–and now, Zac Efron is trying out some serious facial hair! The actor heated up the Deauville American Film Festival in France on Saturday, when he debuted a new, neatly cropped beard during a photocall for his movie Charlie St. Cloud. And while Zac’s new look is nothing like the grizzled–and occasionally beaded!–beard that fellow actor Brad Pitt recently abandoned, the manly mustache and mostly-full beard marks a definite departure from his usual clean-shaven, baby-faced look. Tell us: Do you prefer Zac Efron fresh-faced or bearded?–Katherine Kluznik Rentmeester

Wee bit cheesy looking.

I don’t like it. Its not full enough to pull it off. Try again in a few years. In the mean time, I don’t mind looking at his pretty face sans hair.

I don’t like it…at all

I really love it :) he’s a gorgeous guy anyway but this makes him look a little older.

Now, that is what I call a real man! I hate clean shaven guys.

has a bit of a pimp-y appeal….
i’m def more a fan of zac with a clean shaven face…his hair is the ticket…he’s got great hair! if he’s going with the facial hair for n older look, he still looks young with a beard that hasn’t fully come in yet…he’s a QT either way.
