muttonchops

Wide cheek hair

Muttonchops are a style of facial hair where the sideburns grow thick and wide down the cheeks, sometimes connecting to a mustache, but leaving the chin clean-shaven.

The shape roughly resembles a cut of mutton.

The style was fashionable in the nineteenth century and now reads as deliberately old-fashioned or eccentric: He grew muttonchops for his role in the period drama.
