I'm not sure if he would have though, because you could really say the same thing about him having written something about them being beardless. I can imagine that he would have said something like "he was beardless, like his Númenorean ancestors" but alas! He doesn't give us many clues...it seems that Boromir at least could be seen as bearded or beardless, perhaps whichever way you want to think him, as Tolkien thought it necessary to note his lack of "true" Númenorean blood. Aragorn as well could go either way, in my opinion.
Thank you both for your input!
