How to Grow and Maintain the Perfect Braided Beard Style
As you can see, there are a number of ways to rock a braided beard. We’re going to show you how to grow and maintain a long braided beard like you see with the hipster style.
1. Grow a super long beard.
If you want to try a braided beard, we’re going to assume you already have a decent start on a long beard. Now, keep growing it. Like, for a long time. To get this look right, you’ll need a good 12 inches or so of hair below your chin. With a beard this long, it’s important to keep your hair healthy to prevent dryness and breakage. Your daily skincare routine should include a beard shampoo, a conditioner, and a beard oil to hydrate and soften your facial hair.
2. Trim up the sides.
You want the sides of your beard to be long, but not quite as long as the part directly below your chin. After your sides have grown out 5 or 6 inches, you can start trimming them up as needed so your facial hair angles downward toward your chin. You can use trimming scissors to keep the side length in check.
3. Braid your hair.
Once you get enough length below your chin, you can braid the hair. Start by using a beard brush to brush your hair downward and remove any tangles. Then, section it off into three equal sections, and then begin weaving them together, placing one section on top of the other until you reach the end.
4. Add some bling.
If you really want to be extra, you can add a bead to the end, like you see in some of the photos above. Then, tie it off with a rubber band.
Here are some of our favorite product recommendations to help you get the perfect braided beard:
- PROGRO Beard Shampoo & PROGRO Beard Soft Conditioner: to cleanse and soften facial hair.
- Wild Willies Beard Oil: to hydrate your beard.

How to Grow and Maintain the Perfect Viking Beard
The Vikings were proud of their beards. They were a symbol of manliness and strength. Although they were usually long and full, they were well maintained. Follow these steps to nail this Scandinavian look.
1. Let your facial hair grow out.
If you’re starting from scratch, it may take several months to get a solid Viking beard. If you struggle to grow your facial hair, try some beard growth gummies that contain biotin, vitamin E, vitamin B5 and Vitamin A. Daily supplementation of your diet with these gummies will aid in beard health and help grow your beard faster.
2. Keep it clean with the right products.
Things can get hot and sweaty out there on the battlefield. After a long day, be sure to cleanse your face and beard thoroughly with a beard wash that will get rid of dirt and grime without stripping away precious sebum oil that your hair follices need.
3. Style and maintain it.
The Viking beard can take on a number of different styles, but the main thing is to keep it healthy and styled so it doesn’t look unruly. If your beard includes a mustache, keep it trimmed right above the lipline. Keep the sides of your beard trimmed to a uniform length, and if you are growing it out longer, be sure to brush it with a beard brush to keep your hair tame. Finish off your style by using a beard oil or beard butter to keep your facial hair soft and looking great.
Here are some of our favorite product recommendations to help you get the perfect Viking beard:
- Growth Gummies: to promote healthy beard growth.
- Wild Willies Beard Wash: to cleanse your beard without stripping away natural oils.
- Beard Brush: to style your beard and keep your hair tame.

How to Grow and Maintain the Perfect French Fork Beard Shape
We’re going to give you the steps for growing a simple, traditional French fork beard with a medium to long-length beard.
1. Focus on the length.
The first step to getting a French fork beard is having enough length that you can actually split it at the bottom and keep the two sides separate. You’ll want to go for a medium to long length beard, with at least 6 inches of hair below your chin. To promote healthy growth, try a beard growth kit that contains growth supplements and a beard boost serum.
2. Don’t trim it.
Unlike other beard styles where you may trim the sides and keep the bottom longer, a French fork beard is long all throughout. Put the trimmer away for a while, and use trimming scissors only to clean up your mustache and keep the hair off your lip.
3. Style it to separate the bottom into two pieces.
The styling process is what makes this beard stand out. Once your hair is long enough, divide it right in the middle of your chin. This is where the “fork” will start. We recommend using a heat styling tool like a beard straightener to gently pull the hair downward and out a little bit, away from the center of your face. A heat styling tool will hold the style better than a beard brush.
Then, run some beard butter through each side, still gently guiding the hair downward and out a bit away from your face. The heat combined with the beard butter should keep the two sections far enough apart to distinguish this style.
Here are some of our favorite product recommendations to help you get the perfect French fork beard:
- Wild Willies Growth Kit: to promote healthy growth
- Beard Straightener: to style your hair downward and apart.
- Wild Willies Beard Butter: to make sure the style holds throughout the day.

How to Grow and Maintain the Perfect Amish Beard Shape
Growing an Amish beard is a commitment. If you’re going to do it, you have to be in it for the long haul.
1. Grow, grow, grow.
Ultimately, you’re going to need to grow out your beard over a period of years. Typically, an Amish man stops cutting his beard when he gets married, as a symbol of commitment. (Amish men do not wear wedding rings.) For newlyweds who want to jumpstart their beard growth, try a growth supplement containing Biotin, which promotes hair growth.
2. Ditch the mustache.
If you struggle to grow a mustache, you’re in luck; this beard style requires you to not have a mustache. If you do grow a mustache, shave it daily using a razor and shave lube.
3. Trim clean lines above your jawline.
This beard starts right at or above the jawline, so everything above that should be clean-shaven. You can use a razor or your trimmer with no guard. Use a shaping tool to ensure clean lines.
4. Be patient.
As the beard grows, you may go through an awkward growth stage, but try to leave it alone and continue to let your beard hair grow. If the sides of your beard tend to get a bit unruly, you can use a beard brush and beard butter to brush the sides down and keep them tame. As the hair grows, you may want to use a beard straightener, too.
Here are some of our favorite product recommendations to help you get the perfect Amish beard:
- Wild Willies Shave Lube: to get a close, clean shave.
- The Edge Beard Shaping Tool: to get clean lines above the jawline.
- Beard Balm and Butter Combo Set: to tame down the sides and keep this style looking well-groomed.
- Beard Straightener: for once your beard gets super long.

How to Grow and Maintain the Perfect Winter Beard Shape
Growing a winter beard isn’t too difficult, but you will want to get started ahead of the season. Here are the steps to grow your own winter beard.
1. Grow Out a Big Beard and Start Soon
The first step to growing a winter beard is getting it as big as possible. Remember, these beards are designed to fill your entire face and neckline with lots of hair. Depending on how fast your facial hair grows, you must give ample time to let that beard get nice and thick. Start the process early, say in the summer, so you’ll be ready when winter does arrive.
2. Nurture the Growth with Supplements
As you grow out your winter beard, you need to make sure that you are providing it with the right nutrients and minerals it needs. Daily supplements give your facial hair the best chance of growing healthy and looking its best. You can also use a beard serum to thicken and enhance your beard even more.
3. Trim and Style Your Winter Beard
Once your beard starts getting long, you must trim and style it to maintain a proper look. You can use scissors and a comb to trim your hair to a uniform length. The key here is to not chop off too much hair, or you’ll set yourself back timewise. You just want to get it down to an even length that looks nice. Use a beard-shaping tool and razor to shave along the cheek and bottom necklines. A beard straightener also works well because you’ll get a straight, styled beard as it grows.
4. Continue to Grow and Maintain
From here, you will just want to grow out and maintain your winter beard to the desired length you’re looking for. There is no set limit for length, but generally speaking, you will want it at least two inches for a nice full beard and no more than 6-8 inches long if you want to keep a traditional-looking winter beard. However, feel free to grow it as long as you’d like. As long as it covers your face from the snow, it’ll work.
Here are some of our favorite product recommendations to help you get the perfect winter beard:
- Beard Growth Supplements: Promotes a healthy, thick, and full beard.
- The Expert Grooming Kit: Comes with everything you need to style your winter beard, including scissors for trimming, a razor and beard shaping tool for styling, and a brush and comb to maintain a consistent look.

How to Grow and Maintain the Perfect Verdi Beard Shape
The Verdi beard can be remarkable, but it will take proper maintenance and styling to get it right. Take these steps to grow a true Verdi Beard.
1. Grow Out a Full Beard
Before you begin, you will need to grow a good-sized beard to have enough facial hair to work with. We recommend taking gummy supplements to help promote beard growth while giving your hair what it needs to be healthy. The beard itself should be 2-4 inches in length.
2. Trim Back the Beard While Growing the Mustache Longer
What makes the Verdi beard style is that the mustache is longer than the rest of the beard and usually curled upwards. You must keep the beard hair around your cheek and necklines in the 2-4 inch range while allowing your mustache to grow longer. Use a beard trimmer to keep the beard hair at an optimal length. Also, consider keeping your beard clean and soft with beard butter as it grows.
3. Style the Verdi Beard and Keep It Groomed
Finally, you will want to style the Verdi beard. That means using a beard straightener to tame the unruly hairs. Then use a beard balm or wax to style your mustache. After applying the product, you can use a brush to pull the hairs out straight or use your fingers to round out the mustache hairs. Wrap the hairs around your fingers and twirl them, creating an upward loop as you commonly see for the Verdi beard. After that, keep your beard groomed and at a moderate size.
Here are some of our favorite product recommendations to help you get the perfect Verdi beard:
- Beard Growth Gummies Supplement: These give your beard what it needs to grow full and healthy.
- Beard Butter - Original: Helps maintain a clean and soft-looking beard.
