Modern men wear bears in a variety of styles to show their personalities and improve their appearance. If you're thinking of wearing a beard this summer or want to change the style of your beard during the warm weather, here are a few trends you can try.
Goatees are short and don't require much maintenance but they make a big difference in your style whether you're especially outgoing, decidedly conservative, or simply like to keep up with the trends.
A goatee is not a full beard and features hair on the chin and above the lip to frame the mouth. Since the sides of your face are bare, you can wear your goatee comfortably during the summer. If you're not sure how you'd look with a full beard but still want to experiment with facial hair, the goatee is a stylish choice.
This is a less intense version of a full beard that is more versatile. You'll likely feel comfortable wearing a short beard to the office or to a sporting event with friends. If you want a polished look, trim the short beard with precision, and don't leave a lot of hair on the cheeks. If you work in a creative or artistic environment, you can make your short beard a little fuller. This bearded look works well for men with oval or oblong faces since it makes the sides of the face appear wider.
No matter how you choose to wear your beard this summer, be sure to wash it every few days with a few drops of your favorite shampoo. You can also use essential oils to condition your facial hair, prevent razor bumps, and give your beard a pleasant scent.
A "beardstache" is a cross between stubble and a beard, but the mustache hair is much more prominent than the hair on the chin and cheeks. This style is ideal if you've got a daring sense of self-expression and the full mustache could make you feel a little more manly.
Stubble was "popular" as far back as the 1930s but during this time stubble signified that a man was lazy or not gainfully employed. These days, stubble is accepted as a facial fashion statement for men who don't want to grow a full beard but don't prefer the clean-shaven look, either.
It's easy for most men to grow stubble -- all you have to do is stop shaving for 2-3 days. This "beard" style suits most face shapes and adds a little more character to a man's overall look.
A Northumbria University study revealed that women prefer men who have stubble. Research from popular grooming brand Remington also asserts that one in five men feel sexier with stubble so you may want to try this look if you're going on a few dates this summer.
