Once the beard of the man is lost, and he thereby signals to be a good boy, not a threat, not a free man, but a child, a toy, the beard is then commonly replaced by a tie.
The tie replaces the beard.
In a way the tie is a fake beard.

This, of course, doesn't mean that every shaven man is a slave and every bearded man free.
The beard doesn't make a prophet.
Barba non facit philosophum.
But it is interesting nonetheless.
In its symbolism, if nothing else.

Beards are costly signals to show that one can fight.
Yes! The orangutang neck flange & beard are signal that he can take on a tiger 🐯!
You can grab beards. That is what makes them costly. They give you a weakness that can be exploited.
