What was the look of common Jews at the time of Jesus? Did they have beards?
How can we know that?
It's one of the commandments of the old law:
Lev 19:27
‘You shall not shave around the sides of your head, nor shall you disfigure the edges of your beard. If this picture loads right you'll see a hassidic Jew. The locks on the side of his head is a symbol that he has not shaved around the sides of his head.

I'm guessing he in all likelihood did have a beard. No one would have paid any attention to him if he did not.
this is what some people believe he looked like:
