Short Beard Styles
Short Boxed Beard

Balbo Beard
A Balbo beard is a shorter facial hair style with no sideburns, but with a floating moustache. This beard is the ideal style for guys with a rounder face shape, as it can make the face look more defined.

3-Day Stubble Beard
A 3-day stubble beard is an effortless look that has the added bonus of helping to give the illusion of a more defined jawline. Guys in their late teens and early 20s often favour this look, as it can make the face look a little more mature.
