This weeks Brandi’s Future Husband is not just one person, but a group of people who are providing a much needed service to hipsters.  All because these hipsters are going to “great lengts to get a beard… including undergoing expensive facial surgery to sprout some scruff.  Facial hair transplants are becoming all the rage among, "young, stylish men" who are willing to shell out upwards of seven grand for the privilege of growing a beard on their follically-challenged faces.

The procedure is the same as a head hair transplant, except the roots that are usually planted up-top for balding people instead get moved to the face.  One surgeon who has been doing this surgery in NYC, says that he has been getting “a lot of detail-oriented people -- artists, architects," with his customers coming from Brooklyn's hipster enclaves of Williamsburg, Bushwick, and Park Slope. Interestingly enough, when guys go to see him, they already have a beard role model in mind. "They may bring in a picture of an actor or a model -- for example, George Clooney or Ryan Gosling," another surgeon says.

One of the doctors explained that even balding patients can get beard transplants, provided they have enough chest hair.

Ah yes, alll the good ones are always taken!
