Baldness affects at least half of all men. Its severity varies from case to case. However, it can be a real complex for some men, for whom shaving the head often becomes the only option. Let’s find out why bald men need to grow a beard.
Is baldness driving you to shave your head? What should you do next?
Shaving your head for the first time is a milestone. Many bald people feel freer after shaving their heads for the first time.
They’ve got rid of the stress of losing their hair, the difficulty of styling their hair and the fear of not looking presentable.
However, having a shaved head and a hairless face can give the impression of lacking style. That’s where the beard comes in.
Indeed, those lucky enough to be able to comb their hair as they please can stand out with an original or classic cut.
For bald people, a beard is an interesting alternative for standing out from the crowd. We’ve already looked at the different beard styles for bald men.
A beard is the perfect way to enhance your style and make you more attractive!
All you have to do is look at the bald celebrities who have decided to grow a beard. Like Bruce Willis, the beard gives the actor more style and accentuates his charisma.
Bald men and beards: why do they go so well together?
First and foremost, it’s important not to generalize: not every bald man will grow a beard. And not all men (bald or otherwise) will grow a beard.
As we’ve already seen on several occasions, beards need to adapt to facial morphology. And at times, growing a beard may seem more counterproductive than anything else.
However, beard + shaved head is a combination that works quite well.
To a certain extent, the beard diverts attention. As a result, people will focus more on your general appearance and less on the fact that you’re bald.
This can encourage people who have a complex about baldness to grow a beard. If you browse networks like Instagram or Pinterest, you’ll see that the bald-bearded look really rocks!
Beard + baldness: a style that makes you more attractive
The versatility of the beard means you can sport a sophisticated look.
We’ve seen it with Bruce Willis, but ‘s the case with other celebrities like The Rock. He twists his look with a short goatee.
Bald and bearded men send out an image of maturity, sometimes enhanced by a badass attitude. Like Einseinberg in Bearking Bad, who also sports a short goatee.
It will make you more confident
Having control over your look makes you more confident. Therefore, a controlled style will project the image of a confident man.
Self-confidence is a very important factor for women.
On the other hand, a man who has thinning hair (and therefore doesn’t shave) will find it difficult to style his hair, and will not be able to control his style. This can lead to frustration and stress.
By shaving your head, you’re guaranteed to get rid of this kind of stress.
This will help you stand out
Although many men lose their hair, a small percentage shave their heads. And the percentage of bald and bearded men is even lower.
It’s an opportunity to stand out from the crowd with a style all your own: beard defined according to facial morphology and well maintained.
Once again, a mastered style makes a lasting impression.
Adapting the shape of your beard to the shape of your face
For best results, it’s essential to match the shape of your beard to the shape of your face, whether you’re bald or not.
Oval faces are fortunate enough to be able to sport the style of their choice: long beard, short beard, goatee etc… Just be careful that the length doesn’t create disproportion.
To harmonize a round face, Try a long beard, which will add relief through straight lines. This will soften the roundness and refine the face.
Square faces should try to soften their facial lines. Either with a very short beard (3-day beard) or a long one.
Triangular faces should play with volume: long on the chin and short on the cheeks.
In any case, don’t hesitate to ask a visagist for personalized advice.
But, this type of look requires more caring
The decision to shave your head and grow a beard is a good one.
However, this style will require rigorous maintenance. For a mastered style, you’ll need to shave your head regularly.
And you’ll need to maintain the shape of your beard as regularly as possible. And to maintain perfect harmony.
I hope these few tips have been useful to those who would like to consider a bald, bearded look.
