I will take this as a serious question and look at it from an Orthodox Christian standpoint.
God is not human and thus does not have a beard. The long white beard on God the Father is just a symbol of eternity. It would be more correct if God the Father were not depicted at all.
However, the Son of God appropriated the human nature and was born as Jesus Christ. (Jesus being the name and Christ meaning Messiah or Anointed one.) He definitely got a beard and we can depict Him like that. Occasionally, in the first centuries of Christianity, he was depicted without a beard.
See for yourself.

God in the flesh, Jesus Christ, most likely had a beard. Not only was it cultural, but Jesus was a Nazarene.
He was also likely dark skinned.
Hope this helps!
Booyakasha!

God is a spirit person. He doesn't even have a literal face
