Bald with beard for a long face
A long face can look good bald with a beard, but the beard should add width and structure rather than more length. The wrong beard shape can pull the face downward and make the shaved head feel too narrow.
Compare shaved-head looks by beard, glasses, stubble, no beard, and face shape before choosing the style that fits you.

A long face can look good bald with a beard, but the beard should add width and structure rather than more length. The wrong beard shape can pull the face downward and make the shaved head feel too narrow.

A bald round face with a beard can work very well when the beard adds length and angles instead of width. The goal is not to hide the roundness; it is to give the lower face enough structure that the shaved head looks balanced.

A square face can suit a bald head very well because the jaw already gives the look structure. The beard should support that strength without making the lower face look too boxy.
