    On the red carpet, beards have made a bold comeback. From the neat and trimmed to the artfully rugged, celebrities of all ages are embracing their facial fuzz. As notable trendsetters, it’s no surprise that famous men with beards have caused quite a stir in the world of men’s grooming.

     

    If you’ve been won over by these looks, there’s good news! Celebrity beards are one of easiest parts of their style you can copy for yourself. With the right tools and techniques, you can get the look of your favourite famous beard styles from the comfort of your own home. 

    Finding your style match using celebrity beards

    When looking at famous celebrity beards for inspiration, it’s important to remember that each style will look very different depending on your face shape. Take a look at these guidelines to find your best celebrity beard match:

     

    • Round faces - Add length with an elongated beard, like a stiletto or Van Dyke style. Look to Leonardo DiCaprio, Seth Rogen, Aziz Ansari, and Post Malone for inspiration.
    • Square faces - Show off your sculpted jaw with a clean shave or have free-reign over beard styles. Just be sure to avoid anything too angular around the jawline. Look to Daniel Radcliffe, Brad Pitt, and Tan France for inspiration.
    • Oval faces - Steer clear of styles with pointed beards. Other than that, anything will work for you! Look to Ryan Reynolds and Will Smith for inspiration.
    • Triangular faces - Balance a broader forehead with a close shave, opting for smart stubble rather than a full beard. Look to Ryan Gosling for inspiration.

     

    By taking cues from celebrities with similar face shapes to your own, there’s a much higher chance their famous beards will look just as good on you. 

    How to recreate famous celebrity beards: Must-have tools

    From pop stars to actors, beard maintenance is often why celebrity beards look so good. Mimic their flawless finishes and tap into the psychological benefits of a good beard by choosing the right grooming tools.

     

    For longer looks, start with a powerful trimmer, like the Philips Beardtrimmer 9000 Prestige. This is ideal for fuller beards and features SteelPrecision Technology for a strong, precise cut, helping you nail the neatness of famous beard styles. You can adjust the length of your look easily, too, with 30 different length settings to choose from.

     

    For super neat lines, try the OneBlade 360 with Connectivity. With a dual protection system consisting of a glide coating combined with rounded tips, the blade has all the power you need to cut through thick hair while giving you more flexibility to move around your face. Connect your electric shaver to the Philips Daily Care app to try on different famous beard styles using cutting-edge AR, too, and shave with the confidence of Brad Pitt.

     

    Have you ever noticed how the best celebrity facial hair isn’t frizzy or dry? In fact, famous men with beards seem to have exclusively glossy facial hair and this is thanks to oils and balms. Choose nourishing beard care products that work with your hair type for that red carpet-ready look.

    Step-by-step guide to getting your famous beards

    In the glittering world of famous people, beards take time. To match the excellence of Idris Elba’s perfect scruff or David Beckham’s sculpted edges, you need to put in a little bit of work, too. From the best celebrity moustaches to full-on beards, here’s how to trim and shape your look:

     

    1. Wash and dry your beard before trimming and add a little oil if your hair is too wiry.
    2. Use a beard comb to detangle the hairs and set them uniformly, combing towards the jaw.
    3. Begin trimming, starting with a slightly shorter length at the sideburns and getting a little longer towards the chin (this is known as tapering).
    4. For an all-over length, begin by going over your hair in the opposite direction to growth, before repeating using a shorter setting until you reach your desired length.
    5. Define your neckline by trimming a line just above the Adam’s apple and working your way out towards the sides, using that initial line as a guide.
    6. Shave any whiskers and loose hairs around your mouth, neckline, and moustache.

     

    If you’re going for a short stubble, make light work with the Philips OneBlade Pro 360, using one of the stubble combs for an even length. Learn more about your shaving options for the best celebrity beard with our guide to foil and rotary shavers.

    Best celebrity beard maintenance tips

    As we've established, you don’t get the best celebrity facial hair and the best celebrity moustaches without a serious maintenance routine. To keep up your fresh look, it’s important to care for your beard every day or two.

    • Beard cream - Condition and soften your hair for easier styling.
    • Beard oil - Hydrate, tame, and keep frizz at bay, adding a little shine to your look.
    • Beard balm - With a moisturising hold, soften and style with a balm.

    • Beard comb and brush - Detangle all the layers of your hair with a comb and style with a brush.

     

    You should also take care of the skin beneath for a healthy beard. Elevate your grooming routine with these exfoliation tips to reduce ingrown hairs and improve the absorbency of these balms, oils and washes.
