How long does it take to grow a stubble beard?

How long stubble takes to show depends on the individual’s personal growth pattern, but generally two-to-seven days for proper coverage all over.

How hard is a stubble beard to maintain?

Stubble beard maintenance is pretty easy, but it does depend on how fast your hair naturally grows. If your hair grows fast and furious, it’ll require more frequent trimming to prevent it from becoming a Gandalf beard. A stubble beard is a lack of shaving more than anything else, though there are ways to keep stubble looking fresh as a way of accentuating certain features.

How do I groom a stubble beard?

Use a trimmer on anything from 1-3mm (make sure you check which guard does this as it can differ brand to brand) and trim your beard twice a week, rather than daily, so you don’t damage your skin. A good stubble beard length to shoot for is 2.5mm. Always use a light exfoliator before, or a face wash depending on your skin type, and moisturise afterwards so that your skin can handle the abrasions of an electric razor.

SHORT BEARD

A short beard is a rugged, longer step up from a stubble beard. This beard length works best for those with a good, even facial hair growth. If you have patchy facial hair, this will just further highlight the gaps. Stay patient at the early stages if not; it might look better after committing to some growth, then trimming evenly. Even if your hair growth is patchy, you can grow out certain sections of your short beard to hide the patchy parts.

Short beards are favored among office workers and modern men everywhere because they’re fairly easy to maintain and grow out. They allow you to maintain a professional air, while still rocking your natural manliness.

Who should rock a short beard?

Almost every face shape looks sharp in a short beard length, and they’re generally considered a professional form of facial hair. Depending on how you style your short beard, you can elongate and accentuate different parts of your face. You can work with your barber to establish exactly how long and wide your beard should be to best accent your natural features.
