How to choose?
Any men's stylish haircuts require a serious approach, since an illiterately chosen shape can significantly harm the image. Choosing the right beard based on personal preference will highlight the uniqueness. To choose the right beard with a mustache, you need to determine the type of face by shape. Different types of beards suit different face shapes.
- For men with a round face, a neatly trimmed beard directed towards the cheekbones will suit: a goatee, a skipper's, and also a geometric beard. Sideburns are not recommended.
- For people with an oval face, almost all types and shapes will suit. It is worth paying special attention to hair growth, their stiffness and type.
- For men with a square face, a full beard that emphasizes the chin is suitable, but it is worth giving up very long facial hair.
- With a narrow, elongated face, you can see a full beard with a mustache, you should avoid round shapes.
- A massive beard and mustache will help harmonize the diamond-shaped face.
- The inverted triangle shape is intended to add volume to the jaw. This is achieved through a massive haircut from temple to temple, hair below the cheekbones, smooth chin area. Sideburns are possible.

- with very hard and unruly hairs;
- with very thin and sparse vegetation;
- those who do not have the opportunity to regularly care for facial hair and maintain its shape.
