This section of the OGFHC web site contains a detailed taxonomy of facial hair styles.  Prior to this web site, a meticulous classification of facial hair styles had never been attempted.  Here you will find every feasible way to wear facial hair.  If we have made any oversights, you are encouraged to e-mail me suggestions. For more information on the classification system, Click Here.

Rubric: Facial Hair; Genre: Beard; Type: Partial Coverage

    Method:

Chin Strap - All growth is absent on the moustache and cheek region.

Sans Chin - All growth is absent on the chin region. This type of beard is analogous to the chin strap beard with the only difference being that the beard crosses the face above the mouth rather then below the mouth.

Sans Moustache - All growth is absent on the moustache region.

Sans Cheek - Most or all growth is absent on the cheek region.

Sans Neck - Most or all growth is absent on the neck region, but present on all other regions.

Neck - Growth only occurs on the neck.
