Alright, so the day belongs to all the presidents, but the bearded and mustachioed guys will always have a special place in our hearts. So here's to them, and a hope that someday soon we can liberate the faces of our politicians from the tyranny of the shave.

• Abraham Lincoln — The most famous chin curtain of all time
• Ulysses S. Grant — Full-on Civil War beard
• Rutherford B. Hayes — Walt Whitman bohemian beard

No more kings! No more razors! Or whatever. It's your face. Just treat it right with the best in beard care.
