Make Your Beard a Costume
Start with the facial hair, then add the hat, the coat or the weapon that turns it into a character.
Thorin OakenshieldTwo braids below a fur-trimmed coat
Robert BaratheonHeavy dark growth and a crown
Bob RossFull dark growth and a paint paletteDwarf, Wizard and Fantasy Beards
Fantasy-style beards: the thick braided look from the dwarves and wizards is the heaviest facial hair on this page, and it does the character work before anyone reads the rest of the outfit. Keep the braids small and the colour close to your own hair, because an oversized piece photographs as a prop rather than as hair.
Thorin Oakenshield wears his in two braids below a fur-trimmed coat, Disney Merlin carries a long white version under a pointed hat, and Aragorn keeps a shorter ranger’s shape above a leather duster and a sword. Zeus and Uncle Iroh fill the same idea at opposite ends of the age range, so the piece reads the moment the robe goes on.
Cowboy, Pirate and Rugged Outdoors Beards
Rugged facial hair: a scruffy full growth is the cheapest route into the cowboy, the sailor and the wilderness survival looks, because it needs no shaping and sits well under a wide-brimmed hat. Let it grow a week past tidy and comb it forward instead of trimming the sides flat.
Arthur Morgan wears his under a brown cowboy hat with suspenders and a western shirt, Django Freeman pairs a shorter shape with a brimmed hat and a sharp waistcoat, and R. J. MacReady hides a full white growth inside a fur-lined parka. Captain Morgan and Bob Marley show the two extremes, one a groomed pirate captain’s point, the other loose and unstyled under dreadlocks.
Kings, Warriors and Historical Beards
Warrior beards: a squared, full growth turns a plain tunic into a monarch or a general, so the piece carries rank with no armour or crown needed. Brush it straight down and keep the moustache trimmed off the lip, because the neat edge is what separates a ruler from a brawler.
Robert Baratheon wears a heavy dark version with a crown and a fur-trimmed cloak, Obi-Wan Kenobi keeps a neat grey-touched shape above Jedi robes, and Odysseus trims his short under a plumed helmet. King Fergus takes the same idea with a bright ginger growth in tartan and fur, and Billy Butcher updates it for a modern thriller with a black trench coat.
Screen, Comedy and Everyday Beards
Everyday facial hair: the modern screen look is the easiest version to wear to a party, because a short neat growth plus the character’s own clothes reads at once. Buy the piece in your own colour and keep the shirt and trousers plain so the face stays the loudest thing in the photo.
Coach Beard wears a scruffy short growth with a navy tracksuit and a cap, Roy Kent matches his to a red-and-blue football kit, and Bob Ross keeps a full dark version above a denim shirt and a paint palette. The Most Interesting Man in the World grooms his white growth into a three-piece suit, and Keller Dover and Frank Woods both go for stubble over workwear and fatigues.
Beard Costume FAQ
What is the easiest beard costume?
A cowboy or a folk singer. A short scruffy growth, a brimmed hat and a plain shirt cover it, and you can wear your own clothes underneath.
Can I wear my own facial hair?
Yes, if it is already close to the right shape. Grow it out for a week or two and add a piece only when your own will not get there in time, because a trimmed piece sits better over a little length than over a bare chin.
Which beard works for a group costume?
A fantasy set. A thick braided shape over a fur-trimmed coat dresses three or four people at once, and each person adds the robe, the weapon or the wide hat that marks their own character.
Where should I buy the facial hair?
Party shops carry the basic pieces, and the braided and white versions sell out early, so order before October. Check the colour against your own hair before you commit.
Do I need to shave?
No. Keep your own growth if it is close to the character and build the piece around it, and only shave where a clean chin is part of the look.
Choose Your Beard Costume
Choose the facial hair that matches the character, then keep the outfit simple and let the growth do the work. A thick braided piece covers the fantasy dwarves and wizards, a full squared shape covers the monarchs and the warriors, and a short scruffy version covers the coaches, the painters and the comedy leads. Most of this page comes down to two or three pieces, so pick the shape, settle the colour, and build the rest of the look around it.
