unwhiskered

Lacking facial hair

Unwhiskered means lacking whiskers—clean-shaven or naturally without facial hair.

The word applies to faces, chins, and by extension to animals that might otherwise have whiskers: an unwhiskered cat looks strangely naked.

Figuratively, it can suggest youth or inexperience, since whiskers traditionally mark maturity.
