barba

Beard

Barba

The beard is the hair that grows on the chin, the neck and the cheekbones and under the lower lip of the man. It is common in some countries to give it the name of goat because of the similarity with the tuft of hair that grows in the jaw to the goats. Throughout history and in different cultures, men with facial hair have been credited with wisdom, sexual potency or high social status, but also lack of hygiene or refinement and an eccentric disposition. In some religions men must wear a full beard. Having been stripped of their aesthetic sense during the first decades of the twentieth century, beards, along with long hair, were reintroduced into the Western world by the hippies. Currently long beards are rarely seen among young western men. Surely because there is a certain trend unisex, as in the case of metrosexual, for example. However, in groups of independent rock or pop, or between groups of researchers and scientists it is still common to wear a beard. The beard is trimmed by shaving. La barba es el pelo que crece sobre el mentón, el cuello y los pómulos y bajo el labio inferior del hombre. Es común en algunos países darle el nombre de chiva debido a la similitud con el mechón de pelo que le crece en la quijada a las cabras. A lo largo de la historia y en las diferentes culturas, a los hombres con vello facial se les ha atribuido la sabiduría, la potencia sexual o un estatus social alto, pero también la falta de higiene o refinamiento y una disposición excéntrica. En algunas religiones los varones deben llevar la barba completa. Tras haber sido despojadas de su sentido estético durante las primeras décadas del siglo XX, las barbas, junto con el cabello largo, fueron reintroducidas en el mundo occidental por los hippies. Actualmente las barbas largas se ven raramente entre hombres jóvenes occidentales. Seguramente porque hay una cierta tendencia unisex, como en el caso de los metrosexuales, por ejemplo. Sin embargo, en los grupos de rock o pop independiente, o entre grupos de investigadores y científicos todavía es común usar barba. La barba se recorta mediante el afeitado.
