We weren't allowed to wear a beard in the state police of any type. If you were plain clothes, a small well-groomed mustache was acceptable, but they did not want uniformed officers having one. If a Trooper came to work and forgot to shave, we had an electric razor and the standard razor with shave cream available at all of the barracks. No one was to go out on duty unshaven. I have a heavy beard, so sometimes when I would have to pull a 12-hour or longer shift, I would get a 5 o'clock shadow and then some before the end of the shift, so I carried a cordless electric with me.
I forgot to write, I don't know if they are sexy or not. I guess the ladies would know better than I.
