How to Grow and Maintain the Perfect Brett Beard Shape

Growing a brett beard is a specialized look for your beard hair that will take special attention and care to get it just right:

1. Grow Out A Full Beard

To begin a brett beard style, you first need to grow a nice full beard. This will be the base of what will eventually become your brett beard, which is just a chin strap and soul patch combined.

Try Beard Growth Gummies to reach your desired length faster. 

2. Preserve A Healthy Beard

While growing this type of beard, you will need to ensure that you are taking care of your facial hair. Using the best products means you can transform your brett beard to perfection.

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

• Wild Willies Beard Oil - Original: To moisturize your beard so it doesn't become brittle and unmanageable.
• Wild Willies The Edge Beard Shaping Tool: This tool is the best for shaping your brett beard chin lines.
• Wild Willies Derma Roller Kit: Get everything you'd need to grow a brett beard in one kit, including a high-quality canvas toiletry bag.

3. Shave Off The Mustache

One of the defining features of the brett beard is the absence of a mustache. You will need to shave off that stache to get the full effect, and we recommend The Expert Grooming Kit to do so. Trim down the mustache with the included scissors until it’s low enough to shave off with Wild Willies Safety Razor. Ensure a good lather and use the right conditioning products afterward to avoid any razor burn or bumps.

4. Style And Define The Lines Of Your Brett Beard

Once you have grown this individual beard style and have removed the mustache, it's time to style that beard hair. You can have a clean chin strap with a soul patch, as shown in the example above, or opt for a more unruly chin curtain.

How to Grow and Maintain the Perfect Chin Curtain Beard Shape

The chin curtain beard is one of those facial hair styles that doesn't take much maintenance and can significantly impact your overall look.

1. Grow out the best full beard you can.

To have a great chin curtain beard, you'll need to have enough facial hair to cover your chin and jawline. This starts by growing out a bushy beard to get the length you will need. The Wild Willies Beard Growth Supplement will jumpstart your beard growth to help grow your facial hair out quickly.

2. Messy Or Clean? The Choice Is Yours

The great thing about the chin beard style is that you can make it as unruly or clean as you'd like. Generally speaking, you will want your beard with neck hair to come to a point where it covers the bottom of your face. It can then be styled to furl outward or you can just let it run wild. Use a beard straightener for a more sophisticated look or a cleaner style.

4. Continue To Grow And Maintain A Healthy Beard

For this beard type, it's important that you keep the hair moisturized and healthy. Continue to grow it to the length you'd like, but don't forget to use products like Wild Willies Beard Oil to keep your beard hydrated and soft. It just takes a dab and any dry or coarse hair will feel like a plush pillow! 

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

• Wild Willies Beard Growth Supplement: This chin beard requires a massive amount of hair, so these natural supplements will help you grow it to the length you need.
• Wild Willies Beard Straightener - V.2: If you'd like a more uniform chin beard, you will want to use a beard straightener to keep your beard hair styled and uniform.
• Wild Willies Beard Oil - Original: Use this beard oil to moisturize your facial hair daily.

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 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.

How to Grow and Maintain the Perfect Reed Beard Shape

If you’re ready to look like Mr. Fantastic himself, then check out these steps to grow this beard style:

1. Grow a large, long beard.

Begin by taking growth supplements to provide the vitamins and nutrients your hair needs to thrive. It may take some time, but continue growing your beard 4-8” long to get the effect you’re looking for here.

2. Create clean, smooth lines.

As you grow out your Reed beard, you need to keep the edges trimmed up to create clean, smooth lines. Use a beard shaping tool to ensure symmetry along the cheeks, and trim up any excess hairs with your trimmer to keep your desired length.

3. Brush daily and style.

You will also want to brush your beard daily with a proper beard brush. You could also use a beard straightener to get Reed Richards's style by straightening those beard hairs. Continue to style your beard hair as it grows by ensuring it has clean lines, sharp edges on the beard itself, and a long mustache to fall down over the chin hairs.

How to Grow and Maintain the Perfect Hulihee Beard Shape

Here are the steps to grow your Hulihee beard with a little bit of time and patience:

1. Grow a large beard

To begin, grow out a full-sized beard. You can have shorter hairs in the beginning, but eventually, you’ll need long hairs along your chin line that signifies this beard style. We recommend getting at least 2” to 4” hairs for the best effect. If you are starting from scratch, try adding a beard growth supplement to your daily vitamin routine to kickstart growth.

2. Trim and shape the beard.

Use a beard-shaping tool to help style your beard while shaving. This beard type has a nice uniform look even though the side hairs will eventually furl outward. Shave your cheeks and neckline to give it a sharper look.

3. Shave off the chin hairs.

Next, you will need to shave off the hairs on your chin to get the right look. Use a razor to remove everything from the neckline up to your lips. Some might leave a little bit of a soul patch but generally speaking; you will want to keep it low-cut or remove it completely. A good rule of thumb is to shave to the width of your lips.

4. Grow and brush out the neckline

Continue to grow out your chin line hair while grooming and styling the beard correctly. As these hairs grow longer and longer, you need to brush them outwards for the signature Hulihee beard style. You can also use a beard butter to help shape your beard in the direction you need it to go.

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

• The Expert Grooming Kit: Everything you need to shape, style, and cut your beard, including a beard shaping tool.
• Beard Butter - Cool Mint: Keep your hair healthy while removing dandruff and itchy skin.
• Beard Boost Serum: Promote a rich, thick beard with natural ingredients like caffeine and biotin.
