false beard
Costume facial hair
A false beard is facial hair that isn't real—a costume piece made of synthetic or natural hair, attached with adhesive or elastic.
Actors wear false beards for roles, and they appear in disguises and theatrical productions.
The term also applies figuratively to any facade or cover: His gruff manner was a false beard hiding deep insecurity.
