Top Beard Trends For 2025
01/09/2025

Beard trends, like fashion trends, are always changing! And it is up to us to try to keep up with them, lest we be left in the dust. Yes, it can seem overwhelming to try to keep up, but that’s why you have us, the beard styling experts at Better Man Beard. In today’s article, we’re going to cover some of the most exciting emerging trends in beard styles for 2025 and beyond.

Trend 1: An Emphasis on Natural Textures

The era of organic looking beard texturing is in! We are embracing the “messy” and less tamed look of our beards rather than having every single atom aligned just right. It’s time to let things grow organically and don’t worry about not having every hair perfectly symmetrical.

Trend 2: The "Stubble And Shadow" Revival

The perfectly smooth clean shaven look is out. It’s time to rock that stubble look. Forget about the 5 o’clock shadow, it’s time for the midnight stubble!

Trend 3: Beards With Gradient Fades

Our hair is so close to the edge of our beard growth that it is pretty easy to blend the two, and that is exactly what this current trend is all about. This look allows your haircut to be a more integral part of your beard styling and vice versa!

Trend 4: Vibrant Beard Dyes

Sometimes it’s just not enough to express yourself by dying your hair or getting a tattoo sleeve. If you want to stay in vogue these days, it’s time to get yourself some beard dyes as well! Try your hand at something that you think may compliment your face while not drawing too much attention if you have to also be in a more professional setting.

Trend 5: The Return of the Classic Full Beard

The classics remain classic for a reason. Full beards just have a certain charm and rugged style that is in a class of its own. 2025 is the year for bringing this classic back with a vengeance! You can even do a more modern twist on the classic full beard by adding in layered trimming or sculpting to make your stand out in the crowd.

Trend 6: Bearded Accessories

Styling and trimming your beard only take you so far these days. Now, if you really want to rock a different look, you will have to break out the accessories. Beard rings, beads, and clips are so hot right now.
