Ahoy, mateys!
Often the Cap’n gets asked what exactly to do with those facial whiskers. Well, swashbuckler, that very much depends on the shape of yer face. Yer manly beard should compliment yer mug. Here are some guidelines that every pirate can live by: If yer face is round, yer beard should be longer on the bottom than on the sides. If yer face is square, yer beard should be fuller on the chin and well-groomed on the sides. If yer face be rectangular, yer beard should be fuller on the sides and short on the bottom. If yer face be oval, a neatly trimmed beard will look good on ye.
Hope that helps. The Cap’n and his crew are always happy to hear from you and answer any and all questions ye may have.
