beard, mustache
鬚 centers on facial hair: a beard or mustache. The two meanings are closely related as types of hair growing on the face.
鬚 combines 髟 (hair) with 須 (beard, mustache), reinforcing the idea of facial hair. 須 itself originally depicted a face with hair, so the compound emphasizes hair on the face.
The top 髟 means hair, and the bottom 須 looks like a face with hair strokes. Together they show a bearded face: 鬚 is a beard or mustache.
For シュ, imagine a shoe brush shaped like a beard: you use it to brush your beard, and shoe -> シュ.
