PRO adds facial hair despite what the prompt says.

Community Beginner ,
Dec 28, 2025 Dec 28, 2025

the prompt clearly states: ,totally clean shaven, head and face bald man, razor-smooth skin texture,smooth skin on jawline and chin, bare skin, absolutely no stubble, no shadow. then adding at thr end :

Negative prompt: beard, mustache, stubble, facial hair, shadow, 5 o'clock shadow, goatee, scruff, hairy,

 

And yet every picture adds some form of hair, a beard, stubble 5 0'clocl shadow. 

This is a major issue that will prevent me from paying for another month, not every man has facial hair, it is an unfair bias and a major flaw in your models.

Hello @Go_Vango8061,

Thank you for your message. 

 

The models do not understand the concept of a word being negated by the word in front of it. So using "not [X]", "no [X]", "exclude [X]", "minimise [X]", "with no [X]", and "without [X]" does not work. When you use a negative prompt, it ignores the negation word and adds to the image or video the thing you are trying to avoid.  You basically need to find "positive" words and phrases telling the model what you want to see rather than telling it what you do not want to see.  Such as "flat land" rather than "no mountains" or "desolate" rather than "no people".  If I am not sure how to describe something I want to exclude in a positive way, I will ask Google Gemini or ChatGPT for ideas.  Just be aware that when they give prompts, they are usually too wordy and conversational, so you have to edit them, but they are good for ideas.

 

I will add that beards appear to be a special case.They are very hard to get rid of. I have had some success with "clean-shaven smooth-face fresh-face clear-chin bare-faced ". You might need to take the image to generative fill to get rid of them.


My best,
