How would you know the difference? According to Terry Pratchett (which is perhaps not an authentic source), dwarf women look just like dwarf men.
There are no stories I can remember that have dwarf women as leading characters. Well, actually, I lie.
There's this one appalling one set in the Dragonlance Universe, featuring Tasselhoff, written by Mary Kirchoff I think. It was called Kendermore, and the dwarf woman was the equivalent of a trucker (foul-mouthed and promiscuous).
Tolkien chooses to omit dwarf women altogether. |

Since there isn't any official description of any of the fantastical creatures dwarven women could have beards or they might not. Personally, I don't particularly like seeing women with beards, even if they are dwarves.

They look however you want them to look, that's why it's called fantasy.  |

Dwarven women had beards, according to D&D, in second edition. And several novels based on such.
In third, the majority do not. However, for those wanting 'classic' there exists a small percentage who do.
Personally... it's your gaming experience. Use your imagination as you will.
