The Definitive Ranking Of Jake Johnson's Facial Hair

Facial hair can change a person's look. A lot.

7. New Age College Moustache, New Girl

Mercifully seen only in flashbacks, this mo isn’t one of Jake’s finer looks, especially when paired with a poncho.

6. Post-Breakup Homelessness, New Girl

Caroline was never good for Nick. Or his facial hair

5. The Trucker, Drinking Buddies

Jake Johnson was a beer-drinking, furniture assembling manly man in the 2013 film Drinking Buddies. Naturally, this necessitated a beard. A huge, off-Swanson-duty Nick Offerman beard. Hey, Olivia Wilde liked it.

4. Miami Vice Moustache, New Girl

Another flashback to Nick Miller’s college days but this time he’s looking a little more polished. Tres Tom Selleck.

3. Baby faced, New Girl

A squeaky clean Nick can sometimes be found in Loft 4D

2. Barely There, Safety Not Guaranteed/Let’s Be Cops

This style worked so well it stuck around for two of Jake Johnson’s most recent films. Appropriate for both journalists and police officers.
