Which look do you prefer?
Beards are everywhere at the moment and more and more guys out there are embracing their facial hair to create statement looks. Whatever the length, it seems that facial fuzz is here to stay. If you're planning on growing your own beard, you should also think about how you want your hair to work with it.
Checking out some different street style looks can be a great way to start and we have two great hairstyles for you, courtesy of fashion photographer Justin Wu.

Voluminous

The gentleman on the left balanced out his full beard with a high volume look. It has a really modern feel to it and the shorter sides help to create a smooth silhouette. The lighter tips on top bring a little personality to the table, making this style a memorable one! If you want something that's a little out of the ordinary but won't shock the boss, this could be just what you're looking for.
Recreate the look with a small amount of Advanced Hairstyle TXT IT Hyper Fix Putty by combing it through the top and then smoothing down the sides and back.

Vintage

The guy on the right took a slightly different approach, opting for a modern rockabilly quiff. The sculpted pomp prevents the beard from overwhelming his look and the low-shine finish is a really nice touch.
Recreate the look with a small amount of Advanced Hairstyle TXT IT Deconstructing Gum by working it through the longer hair on top and sculpting a pomp with your hands.
So there you have it, two different styles that you can rely on to look awesome with a beard. The question is, which one do you like best?
