Some Suggested Hairstyles That May Match Your Bearded Style

If you have a beard, you know that it can sometimes be difficult to find the right hairstyle to match. You want something that will complement your facial hair, but you also don't want to look like you're trying too hard.

Luckily, there are a few different hairstyles that can work well with a beard. Here are some of our favorites:

1. Bald

Not everyone can say that they can rock any type of beard, but if you're bald, you've got that going for you. So even though being bald may not be ideal, it does have its perks.

2. Intricately Styled

If you want to rock an intricate hairstyle, you'll need a beard style that is simple and unassuming. A tall mohawk, for example, looks best with a beard that doesn't compete for attention.

3. Long and Unruly

A long, thick beard can really make you look impressive and masculine. Just make sure you take care of it while it grows, using nourishing beard oil and combing it out each day. This will help prevent tangles and damage that could make you have to cut it all off.

4. Man Bun

A man bun is a hairstyle where the hair is pulled back and tied into a bun at the top of the head. A beard is a mass of hair that grows on the face. A wax-based beard balm or pomade is a product that can be used to make the beard appear thicker.

5. Retro

If you want your beard to be in keeping with a certain historical period, do your research to find out what styles were popular then. Find some pictures of men from that era, and take them to a barber to get the look you want.

6. Short and Neat

If you have a short haircut, it's best to also have a short beard. This will create a balanced look. For a short beard, you can either go for the stubble look or something slightly longer. Another option is a very short goatee with sharp lines. That said, it's important to keep up with your grooming, so you always look neat and clean.

7. Shaggy and Thick

If you have curly, thick hair that you wear in a shag style, you can have a slightly longer beard. We recommend that you grow it out fully and let it go just below the chin. Then, trim it weekly to keep it looking neat. This will help you to avoid looking completely unkempt.

8. Tousled and Carefree

If you want to achieve the surfer style, you should grow your hair out so that it is about an inch or two off of your head, and you should also grow a full beard. Your beard should be thick and full, without any patches.

After you've shampooed and conditioned your beard, apply a beard balm to help style it. Rub the balm into your beard using your fingers, working it through all of your facial hair. This will help give your beard a more natural, beachy wave look.

Conclusion

Indeed, there is no one-size-fits-all answer when it comes to hair styling for bearded men. However, some suggested hairstyles that may match your bearded style include styles that are textured, low maintenance and have a casual, rustic vibe. If you have medium-length hair, you could try a messy bun with a few loose strands hanging down. For those with longer hair, you could try a loose braid or a ponytail. Finally, you could try a quiff or a high and tight haircut if you have short hair.

No matter what style you choose, make sure to keep it comfortable and easy to manage.
