The beard without a mustache can be either a desire or a necessity because the hairs of the mustache are not thick enough. Here are my tips for having a beard without a mustache.

It is true that when we talk about beards, generally the mustache is integrated into the beard, or even inseparable. And yet for some reason, some men won't or can't have a mustache. Here are my tips for wearing a beard without a mustache.

 

Why have a beard without mustache ?

The reasons that can lead men to have a beard without a mustache can be varied :

A beard without a mustache to avoid holes

For many men who wear a beard without a mustache, this may be a no-no. We are not all equal in the face of beard growth, and in some men, the hairs of the mustache may be absent. It may indeed be that there are holes in the mustache, even large holes, which do not give a beautiful mustache. Or that the mustache is not thick enough. Thus the decision to completely shave the mustache makes sense here if it represents a real embarrassment, even a complex that cannot be controlled.

A beard without a mustache for aesthetics

Some men want to have a beard without a mustache because they don't find the mustache very attractive, especially if the space between the nose and the upper lip is very wide, which makes the mustache very visible. Indeed sometimes, the mustache gives the impression of having a big line of hairs which is not very pretty. So the solution before shaving everything is to draw the mustache, by cutting the hairs of the mustache shorter than the rest of the hairs of the beard or by completely shaving the top of the mustache. But this requires daily work which can be a problem, especially if you are in a hurry in the morning!

A beard without a mustache for style

Other men simply do not want to have to maintain their mustache, to trim their mustache and therefore decide to shave it entirely. Even that is also a highlight of their personality, not having the same beard as all the other men. The beard without a mustache is thus an excellent way to stand out in terms of style and look.

A beard without a mustache for convenience

Finally, if some men will want to have a beard without a mustache, it's for its practicality:

  • not only does it make less hair to maintain in the beard area

  • but this can also be an important point for smokers: to avoid having the hairs of the mustache turn yellow.

  • and I'm not talking about those who no longer want to think, when they kiss: you sting!

It is quite possible to have a beard without a mustache because certain beard styles are perfectly suited.
