The 10 Best Beard No Mustache Styles

The 10 Best Beard No Mustache Styles

Here’s a weird one: sometime around 2012, the phrase “beard no mustache” started climbing the Google charts. And it’s still going up. For reasons unknown (but totally valid), more guys are growing beards—minus the lip fuzz.

Honestly? We didn’t see it coming.

Sure, beards and mustaches usually go together. They balance each other out. But it turns out, you don’t need both. You can rock a seriously solid look with just a chin puff, a Viking-style beard, or even a full Lincoln.

So here it is: ten of the best no-mustache beard styles—and who they’re best for.

Is the Beard No Mustache Actually Making a Comeback?

You’re probably wondering: was it ever popular?

Well, outside the Amish and a few other cultures, the “beard without a mustache” or chin-strap beard was once quite popular. A little-known gentleman named Abraham Lincoln sported one. In fact, the old chinstrap was common throughout the early United States – the Amish just made it their own.

So, is the beard no mustache becoming popular again?

Maybe. Beards, more generally, have seen a significant uptick in recent years. Everything from the Verdi to a bit of heavy stubble has become the norm. Even the chinstrap has experienced a renaissance.

Check Your Face Shape

There is one caveat: your face shape.

Just as you can’t get away with certain beards with certain face shapes, so too is the chinstrap a trick customer.

The absence of the mustache usually makes the face look longer and wider. Perfect for men with rounded faces. But if you’ve already got a long face, then the chinstrap probably isn’t for you.

The 10 Best Beard Styles Without a Mustache

Not everyone’s upper lip is made for growing hair—and that’s perfectly fine. Whether you're after a goatee without a mustache or a full chinstrap beard, there’s a no-’stache style that can work for you.

Here are ten of the best no-mustache beard styles worth trying.

1. The Goatee

A classic for a reason. The goatee keeps things tight around the chin with no distraction up top. Think of it as the gateway beard: simple, timeless, and surprisingly versatile. Whether you’re keeping it close like designer stubble or growing it into a long, pointed statement, the goatee suits most face shapes—especially round or oval ones looking to add definition.

2. The Lincoln Beard

If it’s good enough for Honest Abe, it’s good enough for the rest of us. The Lincoln is a full beard—minus the ’tache—that runs along the jaw and chin. Great for guys who can grow a thick beard everywhere except their upper lip. Clean, mature, and low-fuss if you keep it trimmed.

3. The Soul Patch

Barely there, but still a beard. The soul patch is just a little tuft under your bottom lip, and while it won’t win you any lumberjack awards, it’s got a certain jazz-age charm. Minimal upkeep, easy to grow, and ideal if you’re dipping your toe into facial hair for the first time (or making a subtle comeback).

4. Mutton Chops

The wildcard. Loud, proud, and not for the faint of heart. Mutton chops frame the face with thick cheek hair while leaving the chin and upper lip bare. If you’ve got the confidence (and the cheek coverage), this is one of the boldest no-mustache beards out there. Go Wolverine-lite, or go full Victorian rebel—it’s up to you.

5. The Chin Puff

Short, sharp, and easy to maintain. The chin puff is basically a patch of beard on your chin with everything else clean-shaven. It works particularly well for curly beards or men who want some facial structure without committing to a full beard. Keep it neat, and it adds a sharp edge to rounder faces.

6. The Viking Beard

This one’s all about power. Long, thick, and fierce, the Viking beard is what happens when you grow from the chin downward—and skip the rest. While plenty of guys pair this with a moustache, it still works brilliantly solo. Just keep the cheeks trimmed, or it’ll start veering into Lincoln territory.

7. The Eagle Beard

Want a beard nobody else in the room has? Meet the eagle. This is a stylised goatee with carved curves that (vaguely) resemble wings. It takes some grooming finesse, but the payoff is a beard that looks seriously cool and completely original. Not for the lazy, but definitely for the bold.

8. The Chinstrap

The chinstrap gets a bad rap, but it’s back—and looking better than ever. A tidy line of beard that runs from ear to ear along the jaw, it adds structure without bulk. Skip the moustache, keep the edges clean, and you’ve got a modern, sharp look that’s easy to maintain and surprisingly flattering.

9. The Square Beard

Like a goatee, but more sculpted. The square beard bulks up the chin while keeping the lines sharp and the angles strong. If you’ve got a rounder face and want to create more edge, this one’s a winner. It looks deliberate and stylish, without the high-maintenance energy of a full beard.

10. The Chin Curtain

Straight out of the 1800s and still going strong. The chin curtain wraps from one sideburn to the other along the jawline, leaving the upper lip clean. It’s longer and fuller than the Lincoln and offers a historical, intellectual vibe—think philosopher, not lumberjack. Trim regularly to keep flyaways in check.

One Last Thing—Don’t Skip the Oil

Whatever style you go for—chiseled chinstrap, rugged Viking, or something off the beaten path—your beard will only ever look as good as it feels. Dry, wiry, or flaky? It doesn’t matter how sharp the lines are—it’s going to let you down.

A few drops of Beard Sorcery Beard Oil each day is all it takes to keep your beard soft, hydrated, and just the right amount of irresistible. No greasy finish, no overpowering scents—just clean, nourishing ingredients and bold fragrance blends like Dark Sorcerer and Storm Warden that turn your daily grooming into a bit of a ritual.

You don’t need a mustache to grow a legendary beard. Just good genetics, sharp lines, and the right oil.

What's New With the Formula?

In our quest to bring our enchanting formulas to a global audience, we embarked on an imaginative journey to reshape our products. Shipping hemp products internationally brought with it a labyrinth of restrictions, prompting us to craft a new blend without compromising the soul of our creations. By excluding hemp ingredients, we opened the possibility for rainbows and scents to travel unfettered across borders. The heart of our brand persists, filled with intoxicating aromas and enchanting blends that enhance experiences universally. Thus, the beloved character of our products remains vibrantly intact, ready to tantalize senses worldwide.

Throughout this reformulation, we also seized the opportunity to make our products more hypoallergenic by removing nut oils. This thoughtful alteration broadens the accessibility of our line, welcoming even those with nut sensitivities. Our choice to incorporate rosehip and safflower oil was no whimsical endeavor; these oils are famed for their enchanting properties. Rosehip oil, rich in vitamins and antioxidants, fosters the skin's radiance and charm, while safflower oil, revered for its lightweight, non-comedogenic nature, ensures a gentle, soothing touch. Together, they promise an experience as authentic as it is revitalizing, draped in warmth and genuine care.
