Not all beard styles are suitable for your face shape. Naturally, next thing you’ve got to do is to determine the shape of his face.

The distance between cheekbones, forehead, and jawline should be measured first, and the distance between the chin and crown second.

You will know the shape of his face by considering the longest measurement.

If you’ve come to the conclusion that his face is round or square, go for beard styles that will make it look longer.

These two face shapes are wider than the others, so you are free to let his facial hair grow gradually longer on the bottom of the chin. Sideburns and cheeks should be kept shorter.

On the other hand, oblong, rectangular and triangular face shapes are already long. Your job is to add some width to his face.

This can be done by trimming the tip of the chin and leaving cheeks and sideburns thicker. However, don’t let sideburns overgrow or his face will start looking distorted.

Cheek lines can be shaped easily because you have two options for doing this:

Letting the hairs on his cheeks grow entirely naturally
Sculpting his cheek lines with a curve or a step cut, depending on the style you are aiming for.

The invisible line that goes from one to another earlobe and under his jaw is called a neckline.

For easier identification you can apply these two tricks:

Place two fingers above his Adam’s apple and watch where the top of your fingers shows
Tilt his head downward and look where the crease formed, put a finger there and straighten the head

In both cases, your fingers are the indicators that show where the neckline is.

The general rule when shaping sideburns is that they should look like a natural transition from hair to beard.

Depending on the length of his hair, you are going to shape the sideburns differently.

Men with short hairs will look better when their sideburns blend with their hair and look like they’ve disappeared at the top of their ears.

Longer hair men are better with sideburns growing above and below the ears. Although longer, sideburns should be neat and tidy here.

After combing the beard, you will want to even the hairs. You should do this with the longest length attachment your electric beard trimmer has.

Mustache trim is better when done with beard scissors. After washing and drying the mustache, trimming should be performed by following the line of the lips.

Exact mustache length is identified with a beard comb. Proper trim means that mustache doesn’t cover upper lip.

Once the trimming is done, moisturize his skin and beard with some good beard oil.
