Pamper Your Moon Face with an Awesome Beard
Hey guys! You know what? A beard isn’t just good for your health (remember when we talked about that?), it’s also a super tool to enhance your handsome mug. If you’ve got a face as round as a full moon, don’t panic! We’re going to see how to transform that hamster cheek look into a Hollywood star jawline.
What Exactly is a Round Face?
Before we dive in, you gotta know how to spot a round face. It’s simple, if someone’s ever told you that you look like a Babybel cheese or a smiley emoji, chances are you’re in the round face club!
- Soft lines, no sharp angles (almost like a soccer ball)
- Chubby cheeks (perfect for grandmas who love to pinch)
- Face length and width about the same (like a pizza, you know?)
- Rounded chin (no Bruce Willis point, sorry)
The goal with the beard is to elongate all that and create a bit more angles. Let’s be honest, we all want to look a bit like Jason Statham, right?
Beard Styles That Are Killing It in 2023 for Round Faces
1. The Extended Goatee
The extended goatee is the champion’s choice. Imagine Tony Stark letting his beard grow a bit more. It elongates the face and gives the illusion of a superhero chin.
How to do it:
- Let your mustache and goatee grow
- Connect it all like a pro
- Extend a bit on the sides of the jaw
- Shave the cheeks (we don’t want to look like a caveman)
2. The Full Beard with Fade
This is THE trend of the moment. It works wonders for round faces. It’s like putting an Instagram filter “Greek god jaw” on your face.
Style tips:
- Grow a full, thick beard
- Keep the sides short with a stylish fade
- Leave more length on the chin
- Trim regularly (we don’t want to look like Hagrid)
3. The Ducktail Beard
The ducktail is the beard that goes “quack quack”! Just kidding. It’s a long, full beard, shorter on the sides and longer on the chin. Perfect for those who want to play the bearded hipster.
How to maintain:
- Let it grow at least 4 inches
- Keep the sides neat (no bushy beard!)
- Let the chin express itself
- Form a point at the bottom (like a duck’s tail, hence the name)
4. The Van Dyke
The Van Dyke is the beard of sexy intellectuals. It’s like telling the world: “I can quote Shakespeare while changing a car tire”.
Steps to create:
- Grow your mustache and goatee
- Sculpt the mustache (musketeer style, why not?)
- Trim the goatee into a neat shape
- Shave cheeks and neck (we want neat, not neglected)
5. The Garibaldi
For hardcore bearded guys, here’s the Garibaldi. It’s the “I live in the woods and talk to bears” beard. It won’t necessarily slim your face, but it’ll give it one hell of a character!
Maintenance tips:
- Let it grow for at least 4 months (patience, young padawan)
- Keep the bottom rounded and natural
- Trim the sides so you don’t look like a bush
- Brush regularly (otherwise, hello bird’s nests)
Pro Tips for Round Faces
No matter what style you choose, here are some tips for a top-notch beard:
- Trim regularly: A well-maintained beard is like a well-mowed lawn, it makes all the difference.
- Take care of the neckline: We want a clear demarcation, not a beard that gets lost in the neck.
- Watch the cheek line: A bit higher, it elongates the face (but be careful not to look like Spock).
- Use beard products: Oils and balms are like magic potion for your beard.
- Brush and comb: A well-brushed beard is like well-styled hair, it changes everything!
Conclusion: Find YOUR Beard Style
Remember guys, these styles are cool for round faces, but in the end, the best beard is the one that makes you feel like a Greek god (or at least like Jason Momoa).
Don’t be afraid to experiment! Remember the first time you tried to shave? Well, it’s the same with beard styles. We fumble, we mess up sometimes (who’s never had an asymmetrical beard?), but in the end, we find our style.
Whether you go for a subtle Van Dyke or a lumberjack Garibaldi, your beard is your signature. Wear it proudly, as if you’ve just won the sexiest bearded man in the universe contest!
Alright, now, to your razors, ready, grow (that beard)!
