Beard Styles Worth Your Attention
The beard game evolves every year. Whether you’re growing your first beard or switching up your look, these five styles are dominating right now — and they’re all achievable with the right approach and products.
1. The Maintained Full Beard
The full beard never goes out of style, but the trend has shifted toward clean, well-maintained fullness. Dense coverage with defined edges.
How to Achieve It
- Grow for at least 8-12 weeks without trimming
- Visit a barber for initial shaping
- Maintain with weekly trimming
- Daily SickBeard Beard Oil and Balm
- Comb daily to train hair direction
Best for: Oval, square, and rectangular face shapes
2. The Corporate Beard
The corporate beard — kept between half an inch and one inch — works in any environment.
How to Achieve It
- Trim to uniform length every 3-4 days
- Keep the neckline crisp
- Define cheek lines naturally
- Use 2-3 drops of beard oil daily
Best for: Any face shape, especially round faces
3. The Beardstache
A thick mustache paired with shorter stubble. Serious character, major comeback.
How to Achieve It
- Let your mustache grow freely for 4-6 weeks
- Keep the rest at stubble length (1-3mm)
- Use a fine-tooth comb to train mustache to the sides
- Apply beard balm to the mustache for hold
Best for: Triangular and diamond face shapes
4. The Faded Beard
Borrowed from barbering culture, the faded beard blends from shorter sideburns into a fuller chin. Modern and sculpted.
How to Achieve It
- Requires a skilled barber
- Start shorter at sideburns, gradually increase toward chin
- Maintain every 2-3 weeks
- Regular oiling prevents shorter areas from looking dry
Best for: Square and oblong face shapes
5. The Natural Textured Beard
Embracing your natural texture — curly, wavy, or coiled — is a powerful style statement.
How to Achieve It
- Stop fighting your natural growth pattern
- Use SickBeard Beard Oil generously
- Follow with Beard Balm to lock in moisture
- Detangle gently with a wide-tooth comb
- Trim the outline for shape, let interior grow freely
Best for: All face shapes — this style is about confidence
