How to Grow and Maintain the Perfect Garibaldi Beard Shape

Growing a Garibaldi beard can take a long time but you'll be happily rewarded with the results these beard types have to offer.

1. Grow a giant beard.

The first thing you must do: grow a ridiculously large beard. Garibaldi beards don't have to be massive, but most men prefer their beard hairs on the longer side when growing this fashion out. Try a beard boost serum to promote growth and thicken your beard. You can also try a derma roller to get some of those patchy areas. 

2. Trim and style.

As your beard grows out, you will want to trim back the hair so it stays uniform all around. You can use beard scissors, or use one of the bigger guards on your trimmer. If you want the beard narrow towards the chin, let it grow longer towards the chin while trimming up the sides. You can use a beard brush to direct the hair downward. Or, you can let it stay wide just like Giuseppe used to wear it. 

3. Don't Stop Growing

Generally speaking, most people will grow this style in the 6 to 8-inch range, but that doesn't mean you have to. Some men have long, beautiful Garibaldi beards, and you can be one of them. Grab yourself a bottle of Wild Willies Beard Boost Serum and the Beard Straightener - V.2, and you'll be off to the races!

Here are some of our favorite product recommendations to help you get the perfect Garibaldi beard:

• Wild Willies Beard Boost Serum: to promote growth and thicken your beard.
• Beard Straightener - V.2: to give curly beards that smooth, sexy look.
• Wild Willies Beard Butter - Original: to keep it styled and tame unruly hairs.

How to Grow and Maintain the Perfect Jawline Beard Shape

Growing a jawline beard doesn't have to be difficult, but you must maintain it over time and trim away any extra hair.

1. Grow Out Your Beard With Or Without A Mustache

The first step in growing any beard style is, of course, letting those hairs build up. Once you have a solid foundation, even if it's light stubble, you can begin working on your jawline beard. As you grow your beard and begin shaving the style you want, be sure to use the right products to keep your skin healthy. We recommend using Wild Willies Beard Oil daily to keep your skin moisturized and keep your facial hair soft.

3. Shave Down The Cheek Lines

Typically, this beard type is a narrow jawline, although some people let it get a little thicker than others. Regardless, you will want to shave most of your cheek facial hairs to create the cleanest lines possible. Always use shave lube to get a close shave and avoid razor burn. 

4. Maintain The Jawline Beard Shape

When it comes to facial hair styles, the jawline beard takes a little more maintenance than others. This means trimming and shaving consistently to keep up with this look. We recommend the Wild Willies The Expert Grooming Kit to stay on top of your beard game. The razor and blades will keep the rest of your face clean-shaven, and the shaping tool will help define your jawline.

Here are some of our favorite product recommendations to help you get the perfect jawline beard:

• Wild Willies Shave Lube: Use this lube for a clean shave, keeping that chin beard neat and looking as sharp as possible.
• Wild Willies Beard Oil - Original: This beard oil will keep your beard hair moisturized and promote healthy facial hair growth.
• Wild Willies The Expert Grooming Kit: This beard grooming kit has everything you need to master your jawline beard, including scissors, a brush, a razor with three blades, a comb, and a jawline shaping tool.

How to Grow and Maintain the Perfect Monkey Tail Beard Shape

Follow these steps to grow a monkey tail beard and have fun with it! 

1. Grow Out a Beard and Mustache

The first thing you will need to do to grow a monkey tail beard is to grow out a full beard and mustache. The more hair you have to work with, the easier the rest of the steps will be. We recommend growing at least 3-5 mm. 

If you’re having difficulty growing your beard, grab some beard growth supplements to strengthen your beard and promote natural hair growth.

2. Plan Your Monkey Tail Beard

Once your beard is nice and full, you’ll want to take a minute to plan out the monkey tail shape around your face. If you get this part wrong, you’ll end up with a disjointed beard, and the whole concept will be lost. Think about how you want the tail to look. You may even want to paint color in the areas you’ll need to cut out to get that right spiral. 

3. Trim Down and Shape

If you have grown a large, unruly beard, take the time to trim it to a nice even length using a 3 to 5 mm attachment on your trimmer. Now you can start shaping the monkey's tail. The best way to do this is to slowly start cutting away the parts of your beard that you have marked or painted. 

Use scissors or a beard trimmer to cut down the hair, and take your time. You may need to angle your tools differently to cut into the deeper parts of the beard without damaging the parts you want to keep. A beard shaping tool can help you keep your lines and curves as perfect as possible during this process.

4. Remove Unwanted Areas

Use a razor to remove the final hairs and the monkey tail shape around your cheek lines. Finish off by washing your face of any leftover hair. After that, you just need to maintain your new monkey tail beard with nice beard butter and oil so that it shines and is soft to the touch. Be sure to shave the “negative” parts of the design daily to keep stubble away.

Here are some of our favorite product recommendations to help you get the perfect monkey tail beard:

• The Expert Grooming Kit: has everything you need to keep this intricate style cleaned up.
• Progo Beard Soft: hydrate and lock in moisture daily, keeping your beard soft and healthy.
• Beard Growth Supplements: consume daily to speed up healthy beard growth.

How to Grow and Maintain the Perfect Hollywoodian Beard Shape

You want to grow a Hollywoodian beard that is full, maintained, and styled correctly. These steps will help you do just that.

1. Grow out a full beard and mustache.

The first thing you need is a nice powerful beard. A good beard serum has natural ingredients like caffeine and biotin that can help you grow your beard while providing the nutrients it needs. Depending on how fast your hair grows, this may take a few weeks to a month or so.

2. Maintain and groom the hollywoodian beard.

As your beard grows, ensure that you maintain it daily. Shave away the areas below your cheekbone daily, use beard scissors to cut away any excess or flyaway hairs. You can also use a trimmer to keep the sides of your beard a little bit shorter than the chin area.

3. Use the right products to keep your beard looking well-groomed.

Brush your beard daily with a beard brush to keep it free from tangles. Then, use a beard oil to moisturize and hydrate your skin and facial hair.

Here are some of our favorite product recommendations to help you get the perfect Hollywoodian beard:

• The Trendsetter Grooming Kit: Everything that you need to keep a beard that is well-maintained.
• Beard Brush: A nice brush will make it easy to keep that beard looking sharp and pulled to the front for a true Hollywoodian style. 
• Beard Oil - Original: Essential oils for your beard will help keep it hydrated so that it doesn’t turn hard and brittle. You can also get this oil in a cool mint for a cooling feel.

How to Grow and Maintain the Perfect Van Dyke Beard Shape

The Van Dyke beard style isn’t too difficult to groom and style, but you will want to take some steps to ensure the best look possible.

1. Grow out a goatee.

The Van Dyke is a modified goatee that can or cannot be connected; the choice is yours. You will want to grow a nice thick mustache and then some arrangement of beard hairs on your chin. If your facial hairs don’t grow out rich and full, try some beard growth gummy supplements and beard boost serum to avoid any patchiness on your face.

2. As the goatee grows, shape it accordingly.

Once a solid goatee is formed, you will want to shape the Van Dyke style by shaving any unwanted hair from your jawline, cheeks, and sideburns. Typically the style isn’t connected from your lower facial hairs to your mustache, but you can keep those hairs if you desire. The main thing to remember here is to focus on growing a nice narrow beard from your chin and a full mustache that you can manipulate later.

3. Style your mustache and facial hairs.

Now comes the fun part. You can style the mustache and facial hair any way that you want. We recommend using beard balm and a brush to help shape the facial hairs the way you want them to. When it comes to the mustache, you can have it pointing downwards, flaring out to the sides, or curling around back towards your nose. 

4. Maintain a clean, shaven look.

Finally, you just need to maintain the look of your new Van Dyke beard by styling and shaving back the areas that you don’t want the hair to grow. You can pick up a grooming kit with everything you need to cut, trim, style, and shape your new look daily.

Here are some of our favorite product recommendations to help you get the perfect Van Dyke beard:

• Beard Growth Gummies Supplement: These supplements will help you grow out a rich, full beard and mustache.
• Beard Boost Serum: Helps your beard grow in patchy areas. 
• Shave Lube: Keep your face hydrated and smooth with this shave lube from Wild Willies.
• The Expert Grooming Kit: Contains everything you’ll need to grow the perfect Van Dyke beard.

How to Grow and Maintain the Perfect Royal Beard Shape

Follow these steps to achieve the royale beard style with or without the chin strap.

1. Trim up all your beard hairs.

Trim up your entire beard so there is consistency in the length. We recommend anywhere from a 4-6 mm attachment on your trimmer.

2. Define your goatee.

Next you’ll want to use a razor or your trimmer without an attachment to define the goatee shape. Remove a small space between your mustache and your chin on either side. 

3. Straighten up the chin strap, if you’re keeping it.

If you want to go with the chin strap look, shave the rest of your face with a razor, leaving only the area around your chin. Be sure to use a good shave lube to prevent razor burn. Be sure to always use fresh blades when you shave.

4. Moisturize your face. 

Finish off with a daily moisturizer that will protect your skin and keep it hydrated. We recommend always using a moisturizer with SPF to prevent sun damage.

Here are some of our favorite product recommendations to help you get the perfect royale beard:

• Wild Willies Shave Lube: to get a close shave and prevent razor burn
• Fresh Razor Blades: to get a close, precise shave
• Wild Willies Smooth Moisturizer with SPF: to hydrate and protect your skin
