1. Goatee with sideburns
A classic goatee beard style is the goatee with sideburns. It’s a look that will always make you look manly, especially since it often accompanies a mustache. The only thing you need to do is to 1) create your goatee outline and shape it correctly and then 2) let your sideburns grow as much as you want and shave everything else. (Cheek hair, neck hair, etc). Badass beard style. You can also wear earrings to look even more badass.
2. Long Goatee Beard
When people say long goatees, they are referring to the traditional goatee style that is just longer than usual. You’ll need to grow your facial hair out in order to achieve this look. You won’t need any styling products, as the hair itself will be long, right to your chin. But, if you want you can apply a beard wax towards the end and make it look even longer and more pointed. Awesome style.
3. Extended goatee Style
The extended style is a fun look to try out with your goatee. You can do it with any facial hair, let’s say full goatees. In order to get this beard style we advise you to let your beard grow. An extended goatee is just a goatee that extends up to your ears. However, it is not a full beard because your cheek hair and your neck is still shaven. However, a small part of your goatee will extend up to your sideburns. Nice goatee variation to stand out.
4. Van Dyke Beard
The Van Dyke style is a classic look for men and it’s been around for many years. It’s one of the most popular styles for the 21st Century too. It’s a simple style, which requires the hair around the chin and beard area to be trimmed into a square shape with clean lines. You can also grow a long mustache that doesn’t connect to your goatee. The area is then surrounded by hair that can either match or contrast with the facial hair itself. The sideburns should also be trimmed to avoid them clashing with your goatee look.

5. Pointed goatee
This is another classic look for men. This goatee beard style differentiates itself from the rest of goatees because it focuses on the chin. The facial hair there should be trimmed to be pointed and relatively long. The rest of your goatee should be short so that everyone focuses on the pointed aspect of the beard style.
6. Goatee with stubble
Traditional goatees are not for everyone. Many men look very bad wearing goatees. Therefore, some men choose to combine a short beard (stubble beard) with a goatee. That’s called goatee with stubble or scruffy goatee beard. The goatee with stubble is another cool style you can experiment with. This style is awesome and very safe if it is the first time you experiment with goatees.
7. Goatee without a mustache
The final goatee style we will talk about is the goatee without mustache. The goatee without a mustache is also very popular for various reasons. It is just a traditional goatee but we shave the mustache. You can try and see if you like it. Personally, not my favorite but many men love it.
Conclusion
These styles are all easy to do with little effort and they’ll change your look. Just remember that it’s all about experimenting and having fun with your facial hair. So, whatever style you choose, make sure you have fun with it because that’s what personal style is all about.
