The Circle Beard
The rounded mustache-and-goatee combination that connects into a full circle around the mouth.
A circle beard combines a mustache and rounded goatee into a continuous ring around the mouth. It's cleaner and rounder than the Van Dyke and works particularly well on round face shapes because it adds vertical structure.
