The Chevron has been worn by everyone from Ron Jeremy to even the likes of Mahatma Gandhi. While a relatively humble style, it does feature a signature downward angle. The Chevron peaks out to the edges of the upper lip, however, it does not go beyond it. The original look: A wide and thick mustache that encompasses the area between the upper lip and nose. If you’re struggling with super patchy hair around the cheeks, while still being able to grow lots of chin hair, the Brett might just be your best bet.
BEARD SHAPES PLUS
On the plus side, this beard has another hidden benefit for slow growers. For males with long-faces you’ll want to generally avoid this beard style. Though, in comparison to square jaws, it’s not as effective in terms of definition. With facial hair covering the chin and moving alongside your jawline, the Brett works wonders for gentlemen with round faces. It’s a good reason why the look is often referred to as earlobe to earlobe. In a way it’s quite similar to the chin curtain, however, instead of having facial hair that connects up to the sideburns, this beard style stops at the earlobe.
BEARD SHAPES PATCH
The original look: A unique combination that includes the Soul Patch and Chin Strap. In terms of face types, the Boxed Knocker Goatee adds considerable length to males with round faces. In a simple sense, you can think of it like transforming a Circle Beard into a “Boxy” beard. You’ll find the style has more of a squared look to it with the addition of slightly wider width towards the bottom of the chin. Instead of keeping things tight and round, the Boxed Knocker Goatee features the opposite. The original look: A variation on the classic Door Knocker, aka the Circle Beard. For face types, the Balbo is best suited for gentlemen with round or square faces considering how well it accentuates the chin. Interestingly enough, during the 30’s and 40’s the term “Balbo” itself was actually a way to define a giant formation of aircraft. Closely associated with fascists, he served as a henchman for Mussolini during World War II. It originates back to Italo Balbo, a popular Italian Air Marshall from the 1930s. If you’re wondering where this facial hair style stems from I’ll tell you. And while not truly another variation, it’s nice to know that trimming mishaps can lead to a Van Dyke beard style. However, aside from the deletion of the soul patch another variation includes omitting the mustache. (Or a disconnected mustache paired with a wide chin beard works too) Consider it a combination of the goatee, handlebar mustache and chinstrap if you like. The end result should bear some semblance to an upside down letter “T”. While a soul patch under your lower lip is optional, the look still requires shaved whiskers on both sides. The original look: A two-three section beard style with a goatee and mustache that are not connected. In a sense, you can think of it as being a combination of the popular handlebar mustache, chinstrap and goatee. To complete the look, facial hair mentioned above is paired with either a pyramid-shaped or pencil-thin mustache. It’s a good reason why this beard style comes highly recommend for gentlemen with oblong and square faces. The classic style bears no sideburns, and places a strong emphasis on defining the jawline and chin. It starts with facial hair extending along the jawline and is finished with a styled point at the bottom. In the simplest terms it’s a pointed beard that traces the jawline with an added mustache. The original look: If the name wasn’t obvious enough, this beard style resembles a ship’s anchor. Aside from being named after Alexander Suvorov, a famous Russian General, many gentlemen find this beard style to be quite similar to the Franz Josef though, significantly more curvy. The second variation of this style features the more popular look that includes a fatter mustache. Needless to say, it’s ideal for males who have less than desirable facial hair growth. The original classic features a petite, sharply trimmed mustache paired with sharp corners around the mouth. Sideburns run downwards below the mouth (½ inch) before curving back upwards to the meet the mustache. The original look: A rather unusual combination of sideburns connecting with the mustache.
