How to Grow and Maintain the Perfect Sparrow Beard
Going as Jack Sparrow for Halloween? Or maybe you just really love pirates? Follow these steps and you, too, can look as cool as Johnny Depp!
1. Start growing out your beard hair.
You’ll need at least 5-6 inches of hair before you can start braiding the ends, so this look will take a while to fully achieve. To speed up the growth process and ensure healthy facial hair, add some growth supplements to your daily vitamin routine.
2. Shape your beard.
Once you have a few inches of growth, you can begin to shape your beard. Use your trimmer or a razor to shave your cheeks and sideburns down to your jawline. You should also remove most of the hair on your neck. Leave the mustache, allowing the ends to point downward on either side of your mouth. If you’re using a safety razor, be sure to use a shave lube to get a close shave that is free from cuts.
3. Trim out the soul patch.
Use a thin attachment on your trimmer to create the soul patch. To do this, remove the hair just below your lip, but only on the sides, leaving about an inch in the middle.
4. Braid your chin hair.
Once you have enough length on your chin, split the hair into two sections and braid each section. Run some beard butter through your facial hair first, and then split the first section into three smaller sections, wrapping one section over the other all the way down. Finish off with a decorative bead if you’d like. Then do the same thing with the second section.

How to Grow and Maintain the Perfect Stiletto Beard Shape
The stiletto beard works great with the right facial structure to bring everything into a central area at the chin line. Here are the steps to grow yours today.
1. Start With A Long Beard
The first thing you need to do to grow a stiletto beard is to have a nice full beard. The hairs on the chin will eventually need to be two to four inches long, so having a good beard at the start is crucial. You can take gummy supplements to help you out if you have trouble growing a thick beard.
2. Trim The Sideburns
Next, you will want to trim down your sideburns. Typically, they are thin and start short. Then they gradually get longer near the bottom of the face. Use a beard trimmer and comb or scissors to start trimming near the top of your ears. Then work your way downward, leaving a little more hair with each pass. This will give you an even fade down your sideburns.
3. Trim The Beard
As you work down your sideburns, you will want to continue the same process into your beard. At this point, you can leave the facial hairs longer until they get to their full length at the chin. Another key here is to shave more hair around the jawline and leave more around the chin. This gives it the typical point stiletto look.
4. Clean Up The Lines
Finally, you will want to finish cleaning up the lines. We recommend using a razor, quality shave lube, and a beard-shaping tool. Lather your face with the shave lube, and then use the edges of the beard-shaping tool to shave off the unwanted hair. Just follow the lines of the tool, and you’ll get perfect-looking lines in no time.
Here are some of our favorite product recommendations to help you get the perfect stiletto beard:

How to Grow and Maintain the Perfect Cool Beard Fade Shape
Growing a faded beard takes practice, but it will be worth it. Here are the steps we recommend to grow your cool beard fade.
1. Grow Out A Full Beard
Before you begin, you want to grow a nice full beard. Taking daily supplements will help in growing your beard quickly. The length of your beard is up to you, but for a proper fade, you will want your beard to be at least an inch or more to get the desired look.
2. Fade The Sideburns Into The Beard
The next step is the most important; it will take practice to get it right. You will need to fade your sideburns down into your beard. Some people like to start with a low cut at the top of the ears and work down. Others like to start at the bottom with the beard and work up. Either way, combining a comb and trimmer or comb and scissors is best. We recommend using a professional grooming kit for this. Use the comb to let just enough hair in, and then cut it away with the trimmer or scissors. Cut little pieces of hair away until you have achieved the faded look.
3. Clean Up The Beard Lines
After you have the right fade happening, you should clean up your lines. These faded looks are best when there is a clean edge to your beard, cheeks, and neck. Apply a good amount of shaving lube to your face. Then hold up a beard-shaping tool to your cheeks and neckline. Shave around the tool and use the edges to get straight or perfectly curved lines.
4. Maintain A Healthy Beard
Finally, you will want to ensure that your beard stays soft and hydrated. We recommend a beard softener to soften your beard without stripping away the essential oils it needs. You can also rub in beard butter or beard oil to keep it moisturized. This will help the beard from becoming too hard, brittle, or flaky.
Here are some of our favorite product recommendations to help you get the perfect cool beard fade:
- Beard Growth Supplements: Helps to stimulate natural beard growth with essential vitamins and minerals your facial hair needs to thrive.
- The Edge Beard Shaping Tool: Perfect for getting razor-sharp lines for your sideburns, beard, or goatee.
- Beard Oil - Cool Mint: Keeps your beard hydrated and smelling fresh while defending it from brittle ends and flaky dandruff.

How to Grow and Maintain the Perfect Gunslinger Beard Shape
A pronounced mustache is a typical defining feature of a good western gunslinger beard. Here’s how to grow your gunslinger beard.
1. Start With The Mustache
You will first need to start with at least growing a defined mustache. The mustache can be short and simple or long and showy. This is usually the focal point, so you will want to pay special attention to growing a nice mustache. We recommend taking daily beard supplements to help grow your facial hair.
2. Shape And Style
Next, you should shape and style the beard however you see fit. Use a quality beard butter balm to shape it to match your facial features. You can let it get big and wide, trim it thin, or use the balm to twist the ends into a point or curls. The choices are limitless.
3. Optional: Grow A Beard
Finally, you can decide if you want an underlining beard. It is optional but if you do decide to grow out the rest of your beard, try to let the mustache “lay on top” of the rest of your beard hair. This look was popular back in the day and just means to keep everything trimmed back except your mustache. If you’re having trouble with patchy or thin hair, try using a beard elixir to naturally fill your facial hair.
Here are some of our favorite product recommendations to help you get the perfect gunslinger beard:
- Beard Growth Supplements: Naturally grow a thick beard quickly with the vitamins and minerals your facial hair needs.

How to Grow and Maintain the Perfect Monopoly Man Shape
The stylistic Monopoly Man mustache isn’t that difficult to make. Here are the steps it takes to grow your own Monopoly Man.
1. Grow A Thick Mustache
The first thing you need for a Monopoly Man is a thick mustache. Specifically, the area above your upper lip should be as thick as possible, extending fully from the top of your lips to the bottom of the nose. Daily beard growth supplements can help you if you have trouble growing a thick mustache.
2. Straightener The Hairs
Next, you should consider straightening the hairs of the mustache. This will give a final look a much cleaner shape and will make curling the ends easier. You can get a professional beard straightener at a reasonable price. Set the temperature for the length of your facial hair as described in the instructions, and slowly straighten the hair. Doing this may take a couple of times before they become tamed, but we guarantee you’ll be impressed with the look.
3. Trim And Style
Finally, you must trim and style the mustache to get the iconic Monopoly Man shape. Grab a grooming kit and use the accompanying comb and scissors to trim your beard. Let just enough hair through the comb you want to cut, and then use the scissors to trim those unwanted hairs. Once you have a nice, clean mustache, then you need to shape it. Apply beard butter balm with your thumb and index fingers, and lightly pull up the ends of the beard. Do this once or twice, and the mustache will take shape.
Here are some of our favorite product recommendations to help you get the perfect Monopoly Man:

How to Grow and Maintain the Perfect Pencil Mustache
The pencil mustache makes a statement on it’s own, and usually does not include a beard. Follow these steps to get a great pencil mustache that will make you want to light a cigar and drink some whiskey with the boys.
1. Shave all of your facial hair except your mustache.
This look is best when it stands alone, so start by shaving off all of your facial hair except the mustache. To get a close shave and prevent razor burn, use a shave lube and a safety razor.
2. Trim your mustache.
A pencil mustache should be short. Use a 2mm or 4mm guard on your trimmer to even out the length of your ‘stache.
3. Define the shape.
The distinguishing feature of the pencil mustache is that it’s usually straight across. Take any attachments off your trimmer and use short, gentle strokes to achieve a straight line. Stop frequently to check for symmetry.
4. Take care of your skin.
Since most of your face will be sans hair, you’ll want to take extra care of your skin to prevent dryness, flakiness, or acne. Use a facial cleanser like Tough Scrub to eliminate dirt and oil and prevent clogged pores. Finish off with a moisturizer that contains SPF to keep your face hydrated and protected from the sun’s rays.
Here are some of our favorite product recommendations to help you get the perfect pencil mustache:
- Wild Willies Shave Lube: to get a close shave and prevent razor burn.
- Tough Scrub: to cleanse your face.
- Smooth With SPF: to moisturize your face and protect your skin from UV rays.
