About Beard Costumes

A beard changes a face more than almost any other single costume detail. Blackbeard's full pirate beard, Zeus's godly white one, Johnny Depp's scruff, in each case the beard is doing at least half the recognition work.

A clip-on or spirit-gum beard beats a real one grown for the occasion, obviously, but also beats most cheap costume-shop versions. Spend a little more here, it's the one detail people will actually look at closely.

Beard Costumes: FAQ

Do I need to grow a real beard for these costumes?

No, a good synthetic beard applied with spirit gum looks convincing and comes off easily after the party.

What if I already have a beard?

Even better, just shape or trim it to match the character, no product needed.

Are cheap costume-shop beards noticeable as fake?

Often, yes, from up close. A slightly better synthetic beard is worth the extra cost for this particular detail.
