What beard styles are trending in 2025 ?

The Van Dyke beard, a top trend for 2025

A modern take on the classic goatee, it’s named after the Flemish painter Anthony Van Dyck. It was the iconic beard trend of the 17th century and remains the epitome of elegance in 2025. 

To achieve a beautiful Van Dyke beard, it should be worn separate from the mustache (which must be well-groomed). The goatee is pointed, without spreading onto the cheeks, which should be closely shaved. It gives a polished and refined look. Just keep in mind: it requires a lot of maintenance to stay perfect! 

Who is it for? It’s especially suited for round faces, adding length to them. 

The three-day stubble, still a trend in 2025

Timeless, the three-day stubble is still very much in style this year. It gives a slightly rugged, yet elegant and masculine look. Its best feature? It suits all styles. To achieve it, set your trimmer to between 3 and 5 mm, depending on the thickness of your hair. 

For its upkeep, simply trim it every 2 to 3 days, depending on how quickly your hair grows back. To keep the lines clean, focus on the contours, especially around the cheeks and neck. 

Who is it for ? This beard style flatters all face shapes, and is particularly popular with men who have uneven hair growth. 

A full beard for a hipster look

Perfectly vintage, the full beard suits all styles, from the most polished to the most laid-back. To make it beautiful while maintaining its fullness, this ultra-trendy beard needs to have both a well-defined and natural shape. 

To create this look, start by defining the neck line and then the contours. The key? Always maintain volume in the center. The full beard can be worn medium or long for a bold and striking appearance. 

Who is it for? Suitable for all face shapes, it’s also perfect for balancing proportions, elongating the jawline, or concealing asymmetries. 

The Balbo beard, the ultra-trendy T-shape for 2025

Inspired by Italo Balbo, an Italian aviator and politician, the Balbo beard is a major trend in 2025. With this style, it’s all about definition and contrast! 

The mustache should be sharply defined and connected to the beard, which frames the mouth and extends down to the chin. As for the cheeks, they should be perfectly shaven. To keep it looking its best, regular trimming of the edges is key. 

Who is it for? The Balbo beard is your best ally if you have a small jawline and want to enhance it. It also suits men with delicate features.
