How to Grow and Maintain the Perfect Goatee with Chin Strap

Growing a goatee with a chin strap doesn't have to be complicated. Just follow these simple steps.

1. Grow Out Your Facial Hair

The first step to growing a goatee with a chin strap is to grow your mustache and beard to about one or two centimeters. Later on, we will trim the hair back for a uniform look so you can grow it slightly past your desired length. Make sure to use a beard boost serum to accomplish this naturally. Beard serums use caffeine and biotin to stimulate your facial hair to grow nice and thick.

2. Define & Shape

The next step is to define and shape your goatee and chin beard. The best length to accomplish this look is between stubble length to 10mm. The thicker the hair, the more prominent it will look. We recommend picking up a grooming kit and a shaping tool to ensure you get the best lines possible. Hold the beard-shaping tool up to your jawline and shave off any facial hair above the jawline with the tool's edges. Keep the hair underneath the jawline, giving it that chin strap look you’re going for.

3. Moisturize & Maintain 

Unlike other beard styles, this one needs a little more love and care regarding overall maintenance. Make sure you keep your new chin beard neat with regular trimming to prevent it from getting out of control. We recommend shaving the beard every 2-3 days and using a beard elixir to help it reach its full potential. This will keep the facial hair moisturized so that it doesn’t become hard and brittle throughout the day.

How to Grow and Maintain the Perfect Chin Goatee

Growing a chin goatee requires some patience and dedication, but if you're up for the challenge, here's how to do it:

1. Grow It Out

Before you can style a chin goatee, you'll need to grow out your goatee to the desired length. We recommend about an inch or two. Depending on your goatee growth rate, growing your facial hair can take anywhere from a few weeks to a few months. Make sure to pick up some supplements to help you develop a thicker, fuller goatee in a shorter time.

2. Trim and Shape

Once you have achieved the desired length, it's time to trim it up. First, use a beard trimmer and trim the chin goatee to your desired size. Then, use a razor to clean up the rest of your face. We recommended using a shaving lube to maximize the shave and avoid skin irritations. Make sure to leave your chin goatee about two inches wide to give it a more defined look.

3. Moisturize Your Goatee 

A chin goatee requires some maintenance to keep it looking its best. Use beard oil daily to keep your goatee healthy and moisturized, and use a beard brush to keep it looking well-groomed.

We recommend growing it out longer to help with trimming in the later steps. Starting on a beard supplement regimen will help you grow healthier, thicker hair.

2. Define Your Goatee

Use a beard trimmer with adjustable length settings to define the shape of your goatee. Make sure to trim the sides, even with your sideburns. You should use a beard-shaping tool to help guide you in creating a symmetrical goatee shape. With the help of the contour edges, take your razor and make sure the sides of the goatee are straight.

How to Grow and Maintain the Perfect Connected Goatee

Growing a connected goatee requires patience, dedication, and a bit of shaping and maintenance. Here's how to do it:

1. Start with a Clean Slate

Before you begin growing out your connected goatee, it's essential to start with a clean slate. Shave off any existing facial hair, including sideburns and mustache, to give yourself a blank canvas to begin. We recommend using a shave lube to help the razor glide on your face and prevent any irritations.

2. Let It Grow

Once you've shaved off your facial hair, it's time to let the beard grow. Allow your facial hair to be at least an inch or two to give yourself enough length to work with in the later steps. Using caffeine and biotin, we recommend picking up a beard boost serum to promote rapid hair growth.

3. Shape It Up 

After your beard has grown, it's time to shape it up. Use a beard trimmer to define the lines of your goatee and mustache, connecting the two at the corners of your mouth. Make sure to use a precision trimmer like Wild Willie’s, The Edge Beard Shaping Tool to get clean, sharp lines. Use a beard brush to shape your goatee and tame any stray hair.

4. Keep It Clean

How to Grow and Maintain the Perfect Pretty Boy

Growing the pretty boy requires attention to detail. Follow these simple steps to get the look you want.

1. Grow Your Facial Hair

The first step in growing the pretty boy is letting your mustache and beard grow to about an inch in length. This style requires a fuller beard. Give yourself plenty of growth to make the next step easier: trimming the facial hair. Itchy skin for a few days while growing your beard is normal. We recommend using a beard elixir filled with nutrients that promote blood circulation and help moisturize dry skin so that it looks healthier.

2. Shave The Outline

The next step is to use a shaving lube to help reduce redness, shave off the neck hair, and start giving your pretty boy a basic outline. You’ll want the outline to begin about an inch above your Adam’s apple on your throat. Don’t worry if it may feel a bit long; you will always be able to shorten it later. If you shave too close too soon, you will have to wait to grow that back.

3. Shape Your Pretty Boy 

After that, you’ll need to shape and style the pretty boy. We recommend picking up a grooming kit for this step. First, use the comb included in a downward direction to straighten any curly hairs and see the length before you start trimming. Cut the excess hair with the professional scissors in the kit. Next, use the shaping tool to make clean, rounded corners at the jawline with the contours of the tool. The shape of the pretty boy is a round-cornered square. Make sure both sides of your goatee match symmetrically.

4. Maintenance

Last, to maintain this look, it is essential to groom it regularly. First, start with a beard shampoo every morning to wash away dirt and oil without washing away precious sebum oil, which is necessary to maintain the pretty boy. Make sure to trim it regularly to keep it looking clean around the edges, and shave the rest of your face daily to keep the pretty boy the main protagonist.
