Do you know there is a simple and cool way to up your beard game? Pair that awesome, fuzzy feature with a righteous new hairstyle. A crazy head of hair does nothing to make your beard stand up and deliver. Some hair choices detract from that glorious mug of fur.

A crew cut is all the rage these days with beard dudes and for a good reason. This haircut looks clean and sharp and says something about your ability to take charge in life. The beard-and-crew-cut combo covers all the bases from rugged adventurer to business professional. Check out these great reasons to change up your hair in support of that beautiful beard.

Shows Off Your Beard and Your Crew Cut

One obvious reason to shorten your hair length is to bring your beard front and center. Guys with long hair pull it back to let their facial hair get the attention it deserves. A crew cut does not mean sporting the classic, one-size-fits-all style of the past, although that is still a great look. Crews have taken on a life of their own with options that work with your face and head shape as well as your vibe:

  • Long crew: This version has a classic look but leaves room for shaping. You can take the sides and back down with a trimmer and leave some length up top for styling.
  • Taper-fade cut: This popular style offers a lot of trimming options. It features close cropping above and below the ears for a seamlessly blended crew cut and beard.
  • Curly crew: This look is all about topping it off with those natural locks. You don't need to sacrifice your birthright for a tight cut. Simply leave room on the roof.
  • Textured cut: This cut works with the natural wave of your hair. You leave a little more hair for styling and keep the look sharp with texturing.
  • Side-part crew: This style uses a side part to give the hair a focal point. This is an excellent choice for professionals who want the beard life but need to keep a neat look for work.

And, hey, what would Wild Willies be if our shop didn't include the perfect Beard Shaping Tool to keep your edges precise? Never fear; your beard team is here.

Achieves Your Unique Style

A great part about the beard community is the desire for independence. Since all beards are unique, why hang with a dull-looking haircut? Statistics show that 33% of American men wear a beard. We dig this statistic and believe you should go all-in with a great topper.

You're an original, so you want a hairstyle that reflects your personality and complements your fuzzy chops. A crew cut makes it all shine in the right way. Grab some Beard Butter for the smoothest finish from head to chin.

Keeps Your Look Fresh

It's good to maintain a fresh appearance, and a new cut lets you do some of your own buzzing with ease. If you're the creative type, there are plenty of cool ideas out there about unique designs. The cool part of these cuts is that you can craft a new look as often as you like. Your entire head and face are yours for the buzzing. Lay on some of our Cool Mint Beard Oil, so your significant other can appreciate your freshness, too.

Creates a Cool Statement

Beards are a declaration, and you've got a story to tell. Guys have been rocking beards throughout history, but in recent years, the call of the wild has returned with a passion. For most guys, a beard provides a confidence factor. It's something you do that makes you feel good, like bench-pressing some serious weight. The right hairstyle lined up with your beard is a statement about who you are and what you want out of life. The subtle and sharp crew cut is a punctuation mark on your manly manifesto.

Takes the Gray Away

We realize that a haircut can't reverse the aging process, but a silver crew may change the game. This cut eliminates those less attractive strands of gray and takes advantage of the salt-and-pepper look that makes you hella handsome.

This shorter buzz makes the gray look polished and ruggedly handsome. Many dudes with a silver crew leave some longer, textured hair to create that layered transition between the head and beard. Whatever age you are when the gray slips in, this look keeps you at the top of your game.

Lowers Maintenance Time

Let's lower the gear here and talk about the commonsense part of a close cut. You're a busy guy, and you don't have a lot of spare time to fuss over long hair. Even if your mane looks like a Greek god's, the time commitment can be a turnoff.

A few minutes in the shower and some light maintenance is all it takes on the daily with a beard and crew cut. Work in some Beard Elixir - Wild Vanilla Spice, and you'll look and smell like a million bucks.
