3. Chinstrap Shadow Effect
This style is perfect for short and patchy beard types, achieving a textured and dimensional look. Shape a thin line of facial hair along the jawline and fade into the same length of your hair above your ears.
Faded Long Beard Styles
Beards longer in length are often seen as statement beards. They can give your face a real chiseled look and can be executed by men of all types, from bald all the way to long luscious locks. Check out these faded long beard styles you can try.
1. Full Beard Fade
This style is for those serious about their well-groomed, grown out beard. Let’s face it: it’s taken a long time to grow that impressive statement beard, so you need to do your best to add some crisp finishing touches.
Maintain a longer length around the moustache and chin area and take your King C. Gillette Style Master to your cheeks for a gradual fade into your hair.
2. Long Ducktail Beard
A statement beard at its finest, this sharp, pointed look is ideal for fully grown out beards. Keep the hair on your cheeks and goatee area the same length and craft the long beard hair on your chin into a sharp point. You can also fade the tip of your beard above your ears to give yourself a double faded look.
3. Thick Neckline Beard
An edgy and modern look that works best for those with a prominent jaw and strong facial features. A perfect hybrid between a long statement beard and a sharp faded look.
Keep the beard thick around the face and line up nicely under the chin, leaving no hair on your neck. Take your Double Edge Razor around the cheeks to finish off with a super-sharp, blocky line.
