Pay attention hipster because this article will interest you. Although it’s been a while since you joined team beard, do you know if your shape is the one that suits you best? Our experts offer you an express master class in Visagism that will show you the style that best suits your face shape.
Beards for round faces
One of its main problems is rounded cheeks, so it’s here that what you do with your beard is most important. In this case we can opt for two alternatives: a vertical goatee that will lengthen the jaw, then at the lowest point of the chin leave a line of hair that joins up with the sideburns. This form will give your look an added dose of masculinity. The other option is to allow your hair to grow a bit longer and bushier and trim to a point. You choose the options you like best!
Beards for rectangular faces
If you’re in this category then you’re in luck because practically any style will suit you, whether it’s the typical two to three day growth or a full on lumberjack. Anyway, we recommend you don’t get too carried away and leave your beard too long or it may make your face seem too angular. Don’t let it grow out to the sides either or you’ll end up with a look that’s way too round.
In this case, the trick is in fading out the neck area or making a clean horizontal line just above the Adam’s apple.
Beards for boyish faces
If your problem isn’t so much in the shape of your face but rather in the fact you look like a teenager then a beard can help you look more mature. But don’t take it too far. Don’t go for beards that are too long or too full as they can end up creating a rather unflattering contrast. Your best bet is a well trimmed regular shape.
Beards for long faces
If this is your case, you should know by now that the combination of a pompadour and a long beard just isn’t for you. The key is finding the perfect balance to compensate your face shape. So, if you want to concentrate volume in your hair then keep a minimal beard with lateral growth. If you want to make your beard the center of attention, then do just the opposite. One thing is for sure; less is more.
Beards for square faces
We always recommend using contrast to take attention away from the jawline. You could copy Zac Efron and go for platinum blond hair and combine it with a full-bodied beard. The difference between color and style will create a very attractive result.
Beards for angular faces
What you don’t want to do with this face shape is emphasize facial angles even more, so goatees or well trimmed beards are the best option to soften the jawline and gently outline the lips.
