The former Liverpool Striker deserves to be on this list purely for the variety of beards and hairstyles he has had over the years. Colours include, blonde, red, green, blue and also briefly his natural hair colour. Although his playing career never quite reached its full potential, the Frenchman was always noticeable thanks to his stylised facial hair decisions.

It is true that not everyone would used the word stylised, more may used the word horrific, however, one can not deny that Cisse had creativity whenever he decided to shave. His time at QPR saw his most rugged look, sporting a fetching bleached blonde beard, which he let grow and grow. At Liverpool, he shaved bits and pieces of at a whim, making his whole body resemble an Aztec labyrinth.

Although sometimes absurd and ridiculous, Cisse can always take solace in the face that he was at least trying to be different. However, at times one must wonder what was going through his head when he looked at the mirror in the morning.
