Does crying feel different with a beard/no beard? (discuss.tchncs.de)

Sorry for the super odd question - I started wondering when writing from a male character's perspective - but yeah, does it feel different to have tears running down your face with a beard vs. without? What happens to tears when they reach your beard? Do they hang on to the first few hair they touch, or do they run through the beard?

Beards are like snowflakes, they're all different. But they're also like onions, because they have layers.

Like, some people have dense relatively waterproof beards where it's a hassle to wash all of it and their face underneath. Others have thin beards where the water still runs against the skin.

It's not gonna be the same for everyone
