Discover the type of beard that suits you best

It’s not the same to have a long or round face. Your face shape will determine which type of beard will suit you best. Discover the best advice for wearing the beard that best adapts to you. The shape of your face is what, without a doubt, defines the style of beard that can suit you best. The geometry and symmetry of your face are decisive when it comes to determining the length and thickness that your beard should have. So, take note of the style that will suit you best:

Beards for oval faces

Symmetrically speaking oval faces are the nicest. You can wear almost any style of beard because any type can suit you. If there is one style that stands out then that would be thick on the sides and short. Another good option is to wear the sides short and the beard a little longer.

What we’re looking to do here is lengthen the face. To do that, a long beard can work wonders. We recommend keeping the sides short and letting all the beard under your chin grow.

If this is you, then the best option for you is to keep the beard short and allow the sides to be bushier. This way you can make your face appear rounder. Stop your beard getting too long as this will only make your face seem longer and thinner.

Just like round faces, this man is suited to a long narrow beard to lengthen the face without making it look wider. If you can, as the beard grows and becomes thicker, try giving it a rounder, more oval shape.

The common characteristic of this face shape if that the jawline is wider than the forehead. This means that the area where the beard grows is already the most notable part of the face and we don’t want to give it even more protagonism than it deserves. If this is your case, you can choose between two options: keep it all short and neat or let a long beard grown, but keeping it short on the sides and later shaping it inward to give you face and beard an overall oval effect.

These have wide cheeks and narrow forehead and jaw. Because the cheeks jut out more than the chin it’s better to keep the sides short, let the lower part of the beard grow and keep the chin area slightly shorter.
