Named after Eric Bandholz, who founded a beard brand after quitting corporate life, the Bandholz is a full beard grown six months or more with a matching moustache and minimal shaping. It is the style that separates growers from wearers: the awkward months are the price of entry, and the reward is a beard with genuine mass and presence. Nothing about it is subtle.
Who does it suit?
Fills narrow and angular faces with real authority. Already long faces gain even more length, so they should stop at the Garibaldi instead.
How to maintain it
Wash and condition like head hair, oil daily, brush morning and night. Trim only split ends; the shape is grown, not cut.
