Extremely difficult to generate images of clean shaven men

written every way possible. firefly just refuses to break out the razor

I think this has changed somewhat with model 3. I just did some test generations of groups of men. Out of 61 men generated 52% were beardless. That is a much higher percentage than model 2. Same prompts on model 2 generated only 19% beardless men.

You are right. It is tough to generate images of men without beards and moustaches. And the few times Firefly managed to get it right, they were of the same ethnicity. I am moving this discussion to the bugs section.

Try using phrases such as "beardless", or "clean-shaven".

Firefly doesn't have a built-in negative prompt functionality at the moment. In an earlier version, there was an Advanced settings - exclusion area where you could add words that would tell Firefly what not to include.  I believe Adobe is working on a new and improved negative prompt functionality. For now, you need to use words that describe what you want without including the words you don't want. I tried the prompt "man with clean shaven face" and got images of person without a beard or moustche.
