A beard may be recommended to slim a pear-shaped face because it can add length and definition to the chin, balancing out a wider jawline. Beards may not necessarily be recommended for the other face types listed as they may not have the same impact on slimming the face. For example, those with an oval face may already have a well-proportioned face shape and may not need a beard to slim their face. Those with a round face may already have softer features and a beard may not have as much of an effect in slimming the face as it may add more roundness. Similarly, those with a square face may already have defined jawlines and a beard may not have the same slimming effect.
