Introduction

Glasses, sunglasses, shades, or even goggles whatever names you know them; have been a style statement for a very long time for both genders of humanity. They can be either gender-specific or unisex designs, at times either work for each other or certain styles only cater to a specific gender. For instance, the cat eyes frame design of the 60s which is even in vogue today, would not go with the macho muscular hunk, unless they can carry it off well, which again is a rarest of rare scenarios. On the flip side, certain designs or trends are evergreens such as the aviators or the wayfarers; they go well with both genders and give the face chiseled and an upscale look. It’s very important to know face shape and the corresponding frame that fits into it as that not only makes you look apt but also saves you from a “faux pas” in social circles and circuits where such trends become the talk of the town. One trend that has been very much in sync these days is the frame look for pogonophile men? Don't be startled! But in simple terms, it means men who love to sport a beard as a style statement.

Bearded history

Don't be astonished or feel left out if you are not bearded, there is a style in the store for everyone. Before we jump into the bandwagon of the latest trends of this year for the pogonophile community, let's dive a bit into the history of sunglasses for the beard and not weird! Back in the first half of the century, when Wright invention took to the skies, born were the aviators and sported by both bearded and not so ones. Even Hollywood stars of those days, with beards sported sunglasses as a fashion statement and their dear fans and followers would ape as a token of love. Fast forward to the rock and roll eras of the 60’s and 70’s many music icons wore it again setting newer trends and many more followers. Not leaving our Bollywood behind, there were numerous stars of the yesteryears and also of today's generation who sport a beard and pair that with a pair of sunglasses and make headlines in the world of fashion with their ubiquitous, expensive and brand image that they create. One such example, which needs to introduction, is the latest pop sensation, “Badshah”. A well trimmed beard yet short beard as we can say, pairs wayfarers or any funky design and color combo which has base geometrical shape, square or rectangle. Infact, such is the presence of this star that people might not know exact technical term of the style, but naming an icon who sports such a style become the USP of that brand, needless to mention they’re expensive for the middle class unless you get hands on a 1st or 2nd copy Chinese duplicate!

Know your beard and pair well

Just as pairing your clothes with your looks is important to make that fashion statement similarly, it is better to know that beard type to fit into the perfect pair of sunglasses. Again this is no foolproof guide to blindly follow and ape but more like a ready reference for the like-minded. You can absolutely customize the way you want to be depicted. Be it brand, price, frame style & color, or lastly brand ambassadors choice you can be your own “King or style Guru”. Let's get to know the beard styles and sizes, don't worry we are NOT sending you to the barber. The beard types are:-

1.)   Short beard: - For a well-kept man or rather should we mention without an offense, urban metro sexual man. The one likes to upkeep, every attention to detail about his looks won’t even compromise on the style of his shades. We recommend, the wayfarers style which will suit him the most, as the thick frames balance out the minimal amount of facial hair and give the face an instant sharp and alpha-male look.

2.)   Long beard: - Just the opposite of the above, such men are more masculine and rugged but don't leave behind an inch to prove their style statement. We recommend, the brow frame for the sturdy virile men, and as the name suggested brow means that covers the eyebrows on to the top where the frame is thick which covers most of the brow if not fully but the bottom arc is frameless and gives a minimalistic look, yet keeping the charm of your long beard.

3.)   Full beard: - Falls between the first two types of beards, whereby neither one needs to trim unless the need be, and shorter than a long beard which is up to or slightly more than the chin level. We recommend the evergreen style, aviators. This will give a retro classic look of the Beatles era and yet have some praises and eyeballs rolling.
