A bald head and beard can be a very strong and masculine combination. And a quite uncomplicated one, because a beard with a bald head suits many men. The combination of a bald head, beard, and glasses is also a real eye-catcher.
Beard and Bald Head: Does it work?
A bald head with a beard? We say: Yes, absolutely! The combination suits most men. And even better, a bald head can be combined with almost any beard style.
You should just keep in mind that your face without hair will appear rounder overall. So, if you already have a rather round face shape, you should choose a beard that visually elongates the shape.
Why choose a bald head with a beard?
The hair on the head becomes thinner for many men over time. Often so thin that the most aesthetic step is shaving and thus the bald head.
The beard hair is usually not affected by hair loss, so beard growth succeeds well despite losing hair on the head. Visually, a bald head and beard create an attractive contrast.
Which beard suits a bald head?
In general, any beard can be worn with a bald head. Which beard suits you depends on your face shape - this is no different with a bald head.
Even as a bald man, you should adjust your beard style or beard shape to your face shape. Note that your face appears even rounder due to the lack of hair on your head.
We now want to introduce you to our favorite beard styles with a bald head.
1. Bald Head and Mustache
The combination of a bald head and mustache gives soft faces more edge and “breaks up” long faces, making them appear less long and narrow. You can create an interesting and individual contour with it.
2. Bald Head and Full Beard
Bald head and full beard is a quite popular combination and currently very trendy. It suits almost any face shape and makes you look edgier, wilder, and more mysterious.
However, to make this version look effective, you should have very full and strong beard growth and take good care of your beard.
3. Hipster Beard and Bald Head
The hipster beard is in combination with a bald head currently fully trendy. Especially round and soft faces can appear much edgier and more masculine with this combination.

4. Viking Beard with Bald Head
The Viking beard is the strongest contrast you can wear with a bald head. It suits those who have very thick and strong beard growth and can showcase their beard in a wild and full way.
Due to the lack of hair on the head, the enormous beard stands out even more. Therefore, the beard should be well-groomed.
5. Bald Head and Stubble
The 3-day beard, like the full beard, suits almost every face shape with a bald head. Men with a bald head and stubble appear very attractive to women because they
- exude independence,

However, make sure to
- take good care of the stubble,
- trim it regularly and evenly,
- and shave the contours cleanly.
Wildly growing stubble quickly looks unkempt.
