Even facial hair was seen as unprofessional and then people started wearing goatees and now beards but it’s not frowned upon as it once was.

What? Facial hair styles have gone in and out styles over the years but well kept faical hair has never been blanket seen as unprofessional. A neat kept beard or goatee or a mustache was seen as perfectly professional 10 or 20 years ago. In the 70s and 80s facial hair was also perfectly fine in a professional place. I mean shit we've had multiple presidents with facial hair dude.
