The fashion of the beard is here to stay and the different styles and models swarm the streets, carried by the hand by those men who have decided to make a radical change in their appearance. Of all the styles of beard that can be observed, there is one that draws powerful attention and is “the hipster style beard“.

Hipster beards, or lumberjack style, visibly have two ways of wearing that can be noticed without much effort; marked by the influence that this type of subculture has had both in the rural area of the United States, from where it was born, until its adaptation in the cities.

Why is the hipster beard style chosen?

The first way in which this style is now carried, has characteristics of the countryside, tinged like the one worn by the American peasants: They are very populated beards, somewhat neglected and with huge whiskers.

The second trend of hipster beards, attends more to the Anglo-Saxon and elegant mode: very careful and profiled beards

These two tendencies of hipster styles coexist and interact between the preference of the male sex, sometimes becoming confusing among those who choose this proposal; in relation to what would be the correct way to wear the beard.

When searching the internet for images to see the two styles, you do not clearly see the different ones between the two; although it is distinguished that they are different tendencies of the same style.

For this reason, it is necessary to clearly classify the two trends of hipster beards and identify in each of them; the particularities that distinguish one style and another and that can be appreciated in the different photographs that are available on the net:

Urban-style hipster beards

It is the style that seeks to approach the beards worn by the inhabitants of Victorian London, gentlemen of remote times in which good education, excellent manners, care for detail and an impeccable appearance; it was what that society dictated.

For this hipster beard trend, the profiling is of utmost importance, that is, the contour is delineated leaving free of hairs those areas that break that profile.

Additionally, the length of the mustache is limited to the lip, excluding the sides, where it is allowed to leave it longer until you can screw it up and apply the wax to shape it.

If it is required to give it an air of extreme care, very well profiled and modern; a slight cut can be made from where the pin is born, even allowing an interruption at the point where the hair joins with the beard.

The highlight of this well-kept style is that it considers at all times the anatomy of the face; when it comes time to make arrangements to the beard.

That is, if the person has a type of oval or elongated face; the style does not accentuate this trait, as it leaves a greater amount of facial hair length in the jaw area and then it is rounded.

Rural style hipster beards

It is the type of beard that requires less care.

In this rural style the upper and lower contours are left undersized, giving minimal attention to the moustache if it is not left long; just as those landowners on the North American plantations of the past looked.

They used to let their whiskers grow, until they could later braid them.

A rural beard has a sloppy appearance, with a somewhat irregular contour, so it causes at first glance; rather an impression of informality or sloppiness, rather than complying with a fashion. This is why you have to make some small adjustments.

In the rural style, it is customic to make a slight cutout in the pin area so that the union between the beard and the hair is noticed. The beard must be equalized in all its extension to give the face a rounded shape.

Without it being in us the intention, the way to wear the beard as well as its care or the omission of this; it always sends a message to the subconscious of other people and therefore, it has influence on the way we come to relate to the rest of the world; whether in the social, work or sentimental.
