The Circle beard is the style for beardsmen who want a neater appearance. While having full beards may appear untidy, wild and unkempt to some, the circle beard is a good compromise that allows a man to still keep some facial hair. The circle beard derives its name from its shape.  It combines a mustache and a rounded goatee to create the distinct round shape. Part of the circle beard’s popularity stems from the fact that it is relatively easy to maintain: As long as the beard retains its round shape and short hair it’s perfectly acceptable. Sporting circle beards have a number of benefits. It’s a great way to conceal a softer jaw line or even skin breakouts and also works well on beardsmen who have squarish faces and jaws.
