Know The Right Type Of Beards For Your Face Shape



Hey fam, yesterday we talked about men and beards..... yeeeea (lol) don't mind me i just love beards tho...
so today we'll talk about different types of beards and the one that is suitable for your handsome face.
But firstly you need to ensure that you have the time and can make the commitment to allow your facial hair to grow. After all, you can’t really start styling your beard until you have one to style.

Unfortunately, this takes a while, and during the time your beard is growing out enough to style, you are going to look a bit scruffy and unkempt. This may be fine for you, but you need to consider whether or not this growing out phase may have an adverse effect on your career or your employer. In some cases, you may have to wait until vacation time rolls around before attempting to grow enough facial hair to create any style of beard at all.
Secondly, consider having a professional to style your beard the first time, once you have managed to avoid those scissors, clippers, trimmers and shavers for a long enough time to actually style a beard of the type you have chosen, then consider seeking professional help for that very first styling.

So Which Is The Best Beards style for the Shape of Your Face?

The Long Narrow Face

If you have a long narrow face, then the best style is a beard that keeps the hair on your chin to a minimum length. The longer the beard, the more long your face will tend to look. So, keep that hair in the chin area shorter to help make your face look a little shorter as well. Long narrow faces often look good with a bit of 5 o’clock shadow or two day grown on the lower half of their face.Stubble styling softens up that long narrow look, making your face look a bit shorter and a little bit fuller.



Square Face

Square faced fellows have a strong jaw line, however in some cases that jaw line is a little too strong, making some men want to soften their appearance just a bit. The best way to soften that jaw line is to choose an all over beard that is clipped close to the face. This softens the bottom of your face giving it a slightly more rounded look.


The Round Face

Many round faced men feel that having a long full beard will elongate their face. Nothing could be further from the truth. Long full beards with bushy side burns will only make your face look more round or at least heavier.Round face fellows should avoid the full beard look and choose instead a nice goatee styling that helps to narrow the face at the sides and make it slightly longer. Having a mustache that meets your goatee and doesn’t extend past the corners of your mouth will give your entire face a somewhat narrow look.





Rectangular Face

Men who have a rectangular face often want to soften their jaw line while giving their face a less elongated look. A beard can do that beautifully if you choose a style such as a chin curtain or a short box beard.


Pointed Chin, Longer Face

Men who have long narrower faces with a pointed chin, aren’t going to benefit from a longer full beard. While the full beard may round out their chin a bit, it will make their face appear even longer.The best beard styling for the longer face with a pointed chin is a nice goatee styling, perhaps even a Van Dyke, to give the chin a more rounded appearance while helping to keep the face from looking narrower.


Short Face, Pointed Chin

Some men have a short face with a pointed narrow chin, giving their face a more trianglar look than they would like. In this case, a full beard styling that extends a bit beyond your face can give your chin a more rounded look and make your face appear somewhat longer at the same time.However, make sure that the part of the beard that goes beyond the chin is rounded at the bottom and not pointed, or the pointed chin look will remain.


If you are not sure what the shape of your face is or if you have a combination face that is not wholely one shape or another, and want to know what type of beard may look best for you, then you can always play around with that weekend stubble to get a general idea of beard types.
So, just let your facial hair grow out over the weekend and then Monday, before shaving, try styling a shape that you think might look good on you. Of course, you will have to use your imagination to fill in for fuller beard styles, but it will give you a rough idea of how much or how little of your face should actually be covered by facial hair.
The really great thing about beard styling is that you can try one style for a while and if you don’t like it, shave it all off and begin again. While most men keep the same beard style year after year, there are those who do their beard styles almost with the changing of the seasons.
Hope this help...

No, Stop Asking For It

The only permission, the only validation, and the only opinion that matters in our quest for greatness are our own.” Dr. Steve Maraboli You might be broke and broken or have random questions like... Am I good enough? Or even smart enough? Beautiful or handsome enough? Why don't I feel content with what I have? I don't see myself talk more about the world seeing me.  One thing you should know is that the world didn't give you permission to be here or even yourself asking to be in the world either. But some of us are still asking for permission but sometimes you have to stop asking for permission, but give the world notice that you have been here, give the world notice that you have played politely long enough, and now it's time to play full out.

Practice To Be More

“I believe that we learn by practice. Whether it means to learn to dance by practicing dancing or to learn to live by practicing living, the principles are the same. In each, it is the performance of a dedicated precise set of acts, physical or intellectual, from which comes shape of achievement, a sense of one's being, a satisfaction of spirit. One becomes, in some area, an athlete of God. Practice means to perform, over and over again in the face of all obstacles, some act of vision, of faith, of desire. The practice is a means of inviting the perfection desired.” ― Martha Graham

Understanding Self-Worth Value

“We cannot think of being acceptable to others until we have first proven acceptable to ourselves.”― Malcolm X Knowing our Value or self-worth is an emotional subject, and often confused as to how to answer the question when asked. It is easy to identify when we don’t feel valued, respected, or appreciated, but knowing our value is somewhat different.
