As everyone knows, Hitler 's biggest signature feature in appearance is his meticulous partial distribution and thick small square beard. Here is the development type, let's talk about his beard.
Beard, like height, is largely genetic. Let’s first look at Hitler’s father Alois Hitler, an Austrian civil servant from the Austro-Hungarian Empire . His beard was quite lush, which was passed on to his son Adolf Hitler .
■ Hitler’s father Alois was a customs officer of the Austro-Hungarian Empire. This photo was taken in about 1880. It can be seen that he had a very lush beard and kept the Austro-Hungarian Empire. The popular Joseph-style beard (the name comes from the Austro-Hungarian emperor Franz Joseph I, this beard is characterized by a clean shaved chin).
With inheritance from his father, Hitler grew a beard when he was a teenager and became very luxuriant before he was 20 years old. Hitler has paid great attention to appearance since he was a child. This was also the prevailing ethos in European society at that time. People in towns believed that a man’s clean appearance was a symbol of decency, and it was also a basic condition for being a gentleman. If he was unkempt, it was an expression of lack of education and crudeness.

Judging from the famous "snap" photo at the beginning of World War I, Hitler's beard style in 1914 (at the age of 25) was already similar to the small square beard familiar to later generations-stay The middle position between the upper lip and the nose,It's just that it hasn't been trimmed into a square shape. This was in line with the habits of the men in the Austro-Hungarian Empire at that time-young men either did not grow a beard, or grew a beard in the middle of the person, and the beard that remained in the middle of the person could be shaped into a mustache or horn beard. Some older men like to choose Joseph-style beard to show maturity.
■ On August 2, 1914 in Munich’s Concert Hall Square, a fanatical crowd was celebrating the outbreak of the First World War. Hitler mingled among them, while his beard remained in the middle of the crowd.
After joining the army, Hitler felt that he was already a mature man, and his beard naturally became a mustache. However, with the proliferation of the gas war on the European battlefield, the officers and soldiers of the warring parties need to wear gas masks frequently. In order not to affect the airtight effect and facilitate life-saving, Hitler's beard had to be trimmed and shortened.

After the end of World War I, Hitler turned into a politician by accident through the chaotic political situation in Germany, and his beard also became the iconic blocky beard. This kind of beard is called Hygienic Hu, which is not exclusive to Hitler, but a beard style that was popular in Germany, Japan, the United States, the Soviet Union and many other countries at that time. One more thing, some people mistakenly call this beard rendanhu , this is wrong, and rendanhu is the eight-character beard.
Hitler in the early 1920s,Just in his early 30s, he has retained his iconic hygienic Hu. It can be seen from the thickness of the beard that Hitler's hair is very luxuriant, but he never wears a beard.
Before coming to power, a lady once asked Hitler on a more relaxed occasion why he had a blocky hygienic beard. Some people (such as her kind of women who don’t know much about beards) looked a little bit funny. Hitler replied: My beard is a distinguishing feature and a degree of recognition. It can leave a deep impression on people and is unforgettable.

So, what would it look like if Hitler shaved off his beard or changed the shape of his beard? World War II Germany's defeat has been determined at the end of the World War II. In order to prevent Hitler from changing his image and fleeing, the Allied forces once asked professionals to design several possible outfits for Hitler. It can be seen in the picture that if the Hu style and hairstyle are changed, Hitler will not be the Hitler we have in mind.

Therefore, a person with a beard and without a beard is very different in appearance and aura. Hitler’s beard is his logo. If you remove it and don’t look carefully, you’ll probably think it’s another person.
