Facial Hair Types

The beard and facial hair types our AI classifies.

Clean Shaven

No facial hair

No visible facial hair. The clean-shaven look requires daily maintenance but offers a polished, low-texture appearance that highlights jawline and facial features.

Stubble

Short growth

1–3 days of growth creating a textured, low-maintenance look. Stubble adds definition to the jawline without the commitment of a full beard.

Short Beard

Trimmed full

A neatly maintained beard with even coverage. Short beards provide structure and definition while remaining professional and easy to groom.

Full Beard

Longer growth

A grown-out beard with substantial length and volume. Full beards offer maximum face-shaping potential but require regular washing, oiling, and trimming.

Patchy

Uneven coverage

Uneven growth with visible gaps in coverage. Patchy beards benefit from strategic shaping — keeping growth where it's fullest and trimming sparse areas shorter.

Mustache

Upper lip focus

Facial hair concentrated on the upper lip with minimal or no cheek/jaw growth. Mustache styles range from pencil-thin to handlebar and each suits different face shapes.

Goatee

Chin & lip

Growth focused on the chin and around the mouth with clean cheeks. Goatees add chin definition and work especially well on round or soft jawlines.
