Designer stubble beard is an edge over the regular stubble. This is because it is edgier and also sharper. It is characterized by neat and sharp edges and the main frame where you grow out the stubble has defined edges by clean shaving the areas surrounding it. This is the basics of designer stubble beard.
It is the new Sexy as this look is opted for by professionals as thicker beards do not go so well at workplaces and thus it is often associated to a mature and responsible male which directly attracts and charms several women!
The length should not exceed 0.5-1cms and there is no scope for a patchy growth. For this, what you need is an excellent beard trimmer with adjustments. This will help you trim your beard and keep the growth even all over the face area. Usually the stubble does extend over the neck as it gradually disappears with the help of a nice trim. All you need to do is keep decreasing the trim setting as you go lower on your neck and automatically the gradation effect will be achieved.
As for moustache and sideburns, there is no scope for either as it is a professional look. You need to keep moustache as well as the side burns as subtle as you possibly can. Ideally no moustache will go well with your workplace as well as the look. But if you love your moustache then opt for a basic one, don’t go to crazy as the highlight should be the stubble and not the moustache.
Men prefer to use razor for the area that has to be clean shaven but you may also use a trimmer based on your level of convenience with both tools. One neat tip is to use a clear shaving gel instead of foam so you can clearly see where your shaving tool is moving! Read our article about clear shaving gel for detail explanation!
Remember that this look is more about maintenance than it is about growth. Make sure the edges always remain sharp and the beard length remains unchanged with the help of your trimmer. Also, at this stage you should start nourishing your beard. It will also help the stubble look darker and smarter. If you plan on going to a party just use some beard butter or wax instead of beard oil. On application the beard will most definitely look thicker and you will be ready to rock the party!
The stubble is considered as a casual laid back look for men who prefer to not shave every day. However, stubble has actually become more than just that. It is a look! This is majorly because all the fashion houses have adopted the stubble as a style statement and women just basically swoon over men with a stubble.
It signifies various things and the length as well as style of stubble should be as per what you aim to depict and what your environment is. The types are distinguished basically by the length of your beard and also the area of coverage. Sharpness of trim and shave also influence the look. So let us break this down:
Let us begin with the latest trend in stubble, the designer stubble. This look has been designed for men who love beard but are also professionals. The designer stubble is well kept short beard that is regularly trimmed to maintain the length. The beard length should not be more than approximately 0.5-1cms. The length is to ensure that your employer or work environment is not compromised because of your look. Also, the edges are pretty clean and sharp. You cannot just grow out a designer stubble, you need to trim, maintain as well as ensure that the shape is not compromised. This look is most popular amongst women as it is a sign of maturity.
This style is basically for men who are growing out a beard. It is also often the preference of men instead of the designer stubble as this is much less maintenance. However the short stubble can sometimes be tricky if you have scanty or patchy beard growth. The length of beard hair should be less than 0.5cms for this look. This beard is generally not very sharp. Ideally a sharp look is preferable because that makes even the scanty growth look denser and less patchy.
The medium stubble is the most common stubble style. It is very basic and is also considered as the first phase of a full beard growth. The important thing to remember here is to maintain hygiene and also nourish the beard well for a good and strong growth as well as to ensure that the growth remains even throughout. The length can be somewhere around 1cm. Despite having similar length the medium stubble is different from designer stubble. Make sure you read our article for the distinction. It is generally confused and the look is thus compromised!
Also, the medium stubble usually lacks sharpness and edge. This is because it is a rugged look. It goes well with certain moustaches as well. Read the detailed article for more information!
The final major category of the stubble is the heavy stubble. This is basically overgrown stubble which is yet to gain the status of a beard. While the other stubbles (except the designer stubble) may be patchy but if you are going for a heavy stubble look, the area has to be completely covered up. Also you need to ensure that the length is say about 1.5cms. Beyond that it starts getting recognized as a short beard so you need good trimming tools to maintain this look. This look is good for casual wear and a casual appearance. It doesn’t bode as well at a work place. However it is a great look for the weekend party as you can let it grow through the week and enjoy the weekend with an almost bearded look, as well as trim it down on Monday morning to go back to your professional look!

You must care because the designer stubble is more like a professional and workplace look. If you confuse it with a medium beard and go for that look, you will end up looking unprofessional! Designer stubble is a type of medium stubble however there are certain differences that you must know in order to understand both styles and carry off the look like it is supposed to!
