Best Beard Styles for a Diamond Face Shape
A fuller beard at the jaw adds width where a diamond face is narrow.
This guide is for the diamond face shape: cheekbones clearly the widest point, with both forehead and jaw at 85% or less of the cheekbone width.
Try
- A full, rounded beard that widens the jaw
- A medium-length beard that is even from ear to chin
- A shorter beard with a neat outline
- A goatee with fuller sides to broaden the chin
Skip or adjust
- A pointed, narrow beard that narrows the jaw further
- Very short stubble that shows the narrow jaw
- Heavy sideburns that add width at the cheekbones
