Are you looking to update your look with a fresh beard style? Whether you prefer a short, clean-cut look or a long, rugged style, there’s a beard that’s perfect for you. In this article, we’ll explore a variety of men’s beard styles, offering ideas and tips to help you achieve the best look for your face shape and personal style. From the classic goatee to the stylish fade, we’ve got you covered.
Classic Short Beard
The classic short beard is a timeless choice that suits many face shapes. This style is characterized by neatly trimmed facial hair that follows the natural jawline, providing a clean and polished appearance. It’s ideal for men who want to maintain a professional look while showcasing their bearded side.
This beard style is best suited for men with medium to thick hair density. If you have a patchy beard, this style might not achieve the desired fullness. However, if your beard grows evenly, the short beard can accentuate your facial features beautifully.
To maintain a classic short beard, it’s essential to trim it regularly using a quality trimmer. Products like Beardbrand’s Beard Oil can help keep the hair soft and hydrated, preventing dryness and irritation. Regular washing with a beard shampoo is also recommended to keep the beard clean and healthy.
As a professional hairdresser, I recommend this style for its versatility and ease of maintenance. It’s perfect for both casual and formal settings, making it a go-to choice for many men.
Full Beard with a Fade
The full beard with a fade is a modern take on the traditional full beard. It features a seamless blend from a fuller beard to a fade at the sides, creating a sharp and contemporary look. This style combines the ruggedness of a full beard with the sleekness of a fade, making it a popular choice among younger men.
This beard style is ideal for men with thick and coarse hair. It works well with most face shapes, especially those with strong jawlines. If you have finer hair, achieving the full beard look might require some patience and the right grooming techniques.
Maintaining this style involves regular visits to the barber to keep the fade sharp. Using a beard balm can help in shaping the beard and keeping it in place. The Art of Shaving’s Beard Balm is a great option for this purpose. Regular combing and conditioning are also essential to prevent tangles and promote healthy growth.
The full beard with a fade is a bold statement. It exudes confidence and style, perfect for men who like to stand out and experiment with their look.
Youthful and Casual Goatee
The goatee is a classic beard style that has stood the test of time. It’s a versatile option that focuses on the chin area, with or without a mustache. The casual goatee is particularly popular among younger men and those looking for a low-maintenance beard style.
This style suits men with round or oval face shapes, as it can add definition and elongate the face. If you have a more angular face, the goatee can highlight your strong features. It’s also a great option for those who struggle with patchy beard growth on the cheeks.
To maintain a goatee, regular trimming is key. Philips Norelco Multi Groomer is an excellent tool for precise trimming. Applying a light beard oil, like Jack Black’s Beard Oil, can keep the hair soft and the skin underneath hydrated.

This beard style is best suited for men with naturally curly hair. It complements the texture and creates a harmonious look. If you have straight hair, you might not achieve the same effect, but the short beard itself is still a versatile option.
Maintaining this style involves regular trimming to keep the beard at the desired length. Using a curl-enhancing cream, like Moroccanoil Curl Defining Cream, can help keep your hair looking its best.
