Imperial Beard – Aristocratic. Eccentric. Unmistakably You.

The Imperial Beard is not your everyday style.

It’s bold, distinguished, and makes an unapologetic statement.

Characterised by an upward-curled moustache, often paired with a clean or styled chin/cheek beard, the Imperial exudes individuality, confidence, and vintage flair.

Worn by none other than Napoleon III of France, it’s now a modern gentleman’s mark of elegance with edge – perfect for those who want to stand out, not blend in.

đŸ’„ Why Choose the Imperial?

  • Elegant, historical aesthetic

  • Stylish, eccentric and full of personality

  • Ideal for oval and angular face shapes

  • Perfect for events, stage appearances, or stylish business profiles

 

✂ How to Style the Imperial Beard

1. Grow your moustache – at least 4–6 weeks

Do not trim! You’ll need length to create that signature curl.

2. Shape daily

Use moustache wax to twist the ends upward – subtle or bold, it’s up to you.

🔗 Use: Beard Wax

3. Optional: Combine with cheek or chin beard

You can add structure with facial hair – just ensure it’s well-blended and clean.

4. Use beard oil for shine and moisture

Especially important for the moustache – it must look styled, not brittle.

🔗 Try: MADEMEN Beard Oil

5. Keep contours clean

Use shaving gel and/or scissors to maintain defined edges.
