Over the years, beards have become an unlikely source for amusing hair trends. We’ve seen guys decorating their whiskers with bouquets of spring flowers as well as silly, bizarre objects. But with the holidays around the corner, it's the perfect time for men to show their spirit through facial hair. In London, guys can now sport beard lights that illuminate their face with an exquisite fairy glow.

On Sunday, December 11, locals can head over to the East Village E20’s Christmas Market. There'll be a special pop-up grooming stall that will transform a gentleman’s beard into a fanciful and festive sight. A professional stylist ensures that each guy who opts for the twinkling lights will leave with a beard lit up like a Christmas tree.

For those interested in decorating their beards, visit the East Village Christmas Maker’s Market in Stratford, 11AM to 4PM, on December 11, 2016.
