Aberlite Go 2 - BEST Cordless Beard Straighter/Heated Brush!

[@NauticalWizard]

Picked one up because of this video and wow my beard has never looked better. I use it at 280 every morning and my beard is around a foot long. Total game changer 🤘

[@DanCBearded]

That’s awesome to hear man!!

[@semperfortisjiujitsu]

I have the Aberlite Pro and it is a valuable part of my beard grooming routine. Congratulations on the affiliate. Always great to see good people working together towards success. Great video and review as always Dan.

[@DanCBearded]

Thank you my friend!

[@jakeboss1915]

I've had the pro since last year based off of your review, it is a game changer for my beard, a great investment. Down the road may look to update to a newer version but mine still works like new. Can't recommend it enough.

[@DanCBearded]

That’s great to hear!

[@beardsandvinyl]

FIRST! You mean I don’t have to worry about trying to find an outlet while I travel and have cords crossing my body and stretching across two sinks at home? Yeah, imma need one of these.

[@DanCBearded]

Ohhh, I didn’t think about the travel outlets, especially international!!

[@1416M]

Hey mister C, I am happy for you that companies appreciate your professionalism and want to work with you. I spoke to a barber about straighteners like this. Referring to the "formula" (heat + tension = direction) he was wondering about how much tension products like the Go 2 could provide, especially in the case of beards that aren't so dense. He seems to work with a blow dryer in combination with a "round brush". What do you think; is this product only for those with dense beards? It happens that I don't have a dense beard, so I'm wondering what this product can do for me. What I think I want to do is to provide direction to hairs in areas where they basically stick out, growing sideways in slightly separate directions, causing a bit of "see through" effect. I guess I'm trying to "stack" them in the same direction. Now this might reduce the perception of volume, but we'll have to see. Knowing that you take time to answer quite a bit of questions, using the affiliate link is perhaps the least we viewers could do. Thanks in advance

[@DanCBearded]

The heated brush works for all types of beards and is even better with shorter beards. I use a round brush and blowdryer daily as well. Different tools for different situations.

[@coreybarbic]

This was the review I've been waiting for!

[@DanCBearded]

Happy to supply!

[@manbark]

When I went from a big beard to a very short one, purchased the Aberlite Pro. It styles and the low heat promotes growth. Normally have it set at 250° and feels great on my skin.

[@DanCBearded]

That’s great to hear!

[@K.Roughknuckle]

New to your channel Dan, I’ve been growing my beard for about a year and a half now. I use beard oil that a lady from my church whips up with essential oils. Shout out to 7 Arrows Beard Oil (Scott & Amanda Black) Now I use a heated brush that my daughter bought me for Christmas everyday and I love it. However last week I was on a mission trip over in Liberia Africa and didn’t have access to power for my brush. I tell you with it being like 90 something degrees and 100% humidity everyday my beard looked and felt like a Brillo pad 😂 -So I’m like “I gotta get a cordless version of a heated brush” So anyway I’m going to Honduras in a couple weeks for another mission trip so I’m going to use your link to buy me this cordless unit this morning. Thanks Dan, beard looks good on ya brother. Blessings Kenny-Chi-Town

[@DanCBearded]

Awesome Kenny! Sounds like a beautiful journey

[@jtsteve]

Haven’t had my Pro for a year yet, won’t be anytime soon but can definitely see upgrading in the future. ESP on my weak hand side not having to hold the cord from flopping around. Great review!!!!

[@hurtygurty9720]

I have all their heated combs minus pro Go 2 don’t use the portable much but it’s just fine Hey Dan have you been using your Babyless cryo brush much? I have and like it just fine. Been using thick wood and the big Chicago combs, that sleep in the freezer, for comparison. IMHO about the same.The beard wants what it wants and when it wants…..that is the mission. I find it’s good to have a wide array of products, info and paraphernalia to quench the fur as the environment changes around us.

[@adamfoss624]

I am very fortunate to have power outlets in my work van, because I don’t always have time to get my beard just the way I want it, so I will go light on the oil in the morning, and when I have time, or on a break at work I can finish by dampening my beard, adding a little more oil, waiting 5 min, then get my beard styled for the day. I could see me asking Santa for this, especially since my Aberlite is still working, but it seems like something I could definitely use. 😊

I like batteries on power tools, cords on grooming tools 🙂 NOW will it work while it is plugged in? I know some tools will not operate while plugged in.

[@reubenk7331]

@@DanCBearded Ah ok, well let us know if you do try it like that! I have had tools before where the battery was low/weak, and so I tried to plug it in. Some devices have a lockout where it won't operate when plugged in. I think this may have to do with heat of the battery or something like that. This may have also been an anomaly of one device I owned as well.

I have the Vikicon Axe 2.0. it works and does the job. What i dont like about the Vikicon is the poor battery life. I have to charge the Vikicon every 2 days every 3 days if im lucky. Also as the battery level decreases i feel the Vikicon is not consistent on the temperature. I've been thinking about going corded and get the Aberlite Pro. After seeing your review for the Aberlite Go 2 i might get the Go 2 and try it.

[@DanCBearded]

Agreed fully about the Axe 2.0 just one of those "get what you pay for" things. Keep me posted if you try it!

[@tylerarant8729]

I still have my pro and couldn't recommend Aberlite enough. I would definitely consider the go when the time comes, but I do wonder the longevity of the go vs the pro as batteries tend to not hold a charge over time.

Questions for both pro & the go your reviewing. Do they remember the last heat setting you used, or do you have to set each time? Thinking "go" would be nice when dry camping in 5th wheel. It'll charge during day off solar.

They either start at 320 or it remembers what I used lol I do not have to switch mine

[@thomascarter2895]

Question: I have a pretty straight beard already and after I blow dry it, it is all nice and neat. Will a heat brush make that much difference?

[@DanCBearded]

I would say only if you have problem areas. For example, most of my beard is perfectly fine and ready after a blowdryer, however not my mustache or sideburns.

[@asdfgasdfghjkl1039]

Dan, I bought the Aberlite go 2 based on your recommendation. I’ve only had it about a week. But every time I use it, it’s smokes a little. I don’t know if this is because it’s brand new or possibly because I had residual product that wasn’t completely dry. Any idea if this is normal?

[@DanCBearded]

There may be a bit of steam or pop if your beard is too wet. Actual smoke shouldn’t happen though

[@asdfgasdfghjkl1039]

Thanks a lot for your reply, I really appreciate it. I know how busy you are! I don’t get any pops, but I suppose it could be steam and not really smoke. I do notice some gunk on the bristles… What’s the best way to clean this?

I use a $30 heated brush ( WW) It works perfectly fine for me. So what am I missing with Aberlite brushes?

[@DanCBearded]

If it works for you, then nothing! If you are asking my the general differences between budget straighteners and one like this, I would say: - longevity, almost always the cheap ones go bad quicker and have no warranty or customer service - heat up quicker - get the job done quicker - safer protection of the heat on your beard

30-minutes doesn't sound like much time, but, as my beard gets longer, I don't spend as much time using a heated brush. 30-minutes run time is at least a week. Great deal!

I initially thought the exact same thing about the time, and then I broke it down realized that was 4-5 generous uses. Hasn’t been an issue with me at all!

[@reubenk7331]

@@DanCBearded I also wondered was that 30 minutes of run time at full heat, or 30 minutes with heat up time. I would imagine that is run time at temperature, seeing as it has a fairly generous 5000 mah battery. Also checked their website and it says 30-60 minutes so that may be at the lowest setting, and the highest setting.

I did not, but I’ll see if I can later today! I think it might not be a perfect measure though because the heat is protected on the ends to be skin safe. So I’m not sure if it will be able to truly grab the temps, but doesn’t hurt to try

[@birdie1497]

@@DanCBearded thanks Dan that would be great as long as its reasonably close I’m buying. The one I bought tested about 100 to 125 off from the 3 settings and the 392 degrees setting only barely hit 270 degrees. I did check the whole heating surface but I understand about the ends being skin safe so just check the center of the heating brush. My daily plug in brush is not accurate when checked with the infrared thermometer but it’s close enough to the actual settings and works well.
