6. Don't use too much oil 7. Don't listen to your own negative thoughts 8. Remain positive, patient and committed 9. Stay away from "growth products " 10. Don't sit in any barber chair without communicating what you are trying to achieve. They may know what's in style and what they think is good for you but in the end you know your face and beard and you are the one that has to live with it. 11. Don't make the mistake of not listening to Dan.

Aren’t beard growth product’s helpful? Like a derma roller or minoxidil.

@Knickerbocker_Ave 7 ай бұрын
@43En what I mean by that is stay away from buying products that market themselves are beard growing oils or serums. There really isn't a quick and easy fix. Dermarollers have a place, yes and so does minoxidil but I recommend you doing the work of finding out if your genetics are capable of a beard, then try and grow one. If you feel you need minoxidil, I recommend you checking with a doctor first to see if your heart is healthy to withstand any side effects as well as other alternatives.

If you trim and get an oopsie, don’t beat yourself up and cut or shave it all off. Work with it until it grows out. It’s usually not as bad as you think and you’ll be farther ahead in growing it out. It took me 2 months to grow out a bad trim, but would’ve taken a year to grow back from a clean shave.

A big thing for me was learning my climate. Living in FL it is HUMID. Using thicker beard oils, balms, butter or waxes in the morning makes my face and beard a greasy mess all day. Using lighter oils only in the morning has drastically changed how my beard looks and feels. Great video as always

I live in Texas and have figured the same thing. Will be making my own oil later this year and have been searching and learning the different viscosity of carrier oil. I have found one company that makes an oil and butter that seem to work great in humidity. Try live bearded as their mix seems to work good. I try to stay away from a lot of heavier oils, although I have many different types, and like you it seems to work

Don't assume that the beard you have when you're 20 is going to be the beard you have for the rest of your life. If it's patchy at a younger age, don't give up, getting some mileage can do wonders for your beard growth. I didn't realize my beard's full potential until I was in my late 40's. If it's thin or just not growing the way you think it should, give it time.

Probably the most important advice I’ve seen yet! I’m watching Dan exclusively now. I’ve committed many of the wrong things like improper comb/combing, beard oil over use, I even watched some else’s video who suggested I trim my beard using a #3 and # 6 guide to make it look longer. Guess what? I lost a lot of length, I now have waves and dips at the jawline. Save yourself some time, effort and heartache and watch all Dan’s videos. It’s worth his wisdom.

I'm a beard newby. Years ago, I could never have seen myself growing a beard, as my facial hair doesn't grow as fast as other people. Recently, I have always had problems cutting during shaving on a facial mole, so decided to grow it while my face healed. I kept putting off shaving and surprised myself with how the beard seemed to complement my facial features. I don't know if it's here to stay, but I'm enjoying learning about it and I now get it when beard dudes used to tell me that having a beard was more a way of life than just a shaving option. Keep up the good work Dan C, you're rocking it!

Great video Dan. #6- If you want a medium to long beard you gotta get through the awkward stage. For me the 1st month and a 1/2 is not awkward, it looks good. But from about 2 to 4 months my beard is sticking straight out in a lot of places. It's not horrible but it's not what I would like for a beard. But as it gets longer and starts to hang down it's a game changer. And I love my beard now. I trim it every few weeks with scissors and keep it at about a 5 to 6 month length.. and that's how I like it.

Cool topic! For me, I am 22 and just started growing my beard this march. Have not cut it since then. Now my beard is 3 inches long, although it is thin on the sides of my face. I’ve learned to use less oil on the thinner parts of my beard and focus putting more on dense areas. Too much oil will cause acne as I’ve learned the hard way. I’ve been watching Dan’s videos since the very beginning of my journey so now I know very much about beards! glad to share my experience!

to pick up at your fifth point, it's especially true in the beginning when you start growing your beard. I also went through a stage where my relatives where like criticizing my beard, they said things like. ""Oh no the beard makes it look like you are not taking care of yourself ... etc"." And at this point I started doubting myself whether or not a beard is for me. But I decided to keep it and when the beard eventualy started to get longer slowly but surely the critique started to turn into compliments. The longer it grew to more I could style it. If I can give anyone advice, it would be. Be patient let it grow and then see what your possibilities are.

Except for the sections that started “… mistake to avoid is avoiding …”, which were brutal on my brain, I think you covered the issues very well. Please allow me to say a lot about “pushing in on the jaw line (to avoid dips)”. Your videos about the erroneous emphasis on beard oil “for the skin” and letting your tools do the work cover this. I want to share what has proven effective for my beard. When I applied beard oil “to the skin under my beard” I never felt any oil was reaching my skin. I only felt my fingers going over the hairs. I concluded that advice to use a comb or brush to spread the oil to skin and throughout beard is good advice - at least is seems so for my beard, and I feel it on my skin. I comb or brush slowly and gently (to avoid tangles and breakage) in 3 steps to distribute oil and eliminate dips: First, with gentle skin contact, move down to where my beard starts on my neck. Second, up from there. Third, straight down past the jaw line with no skin contact from there to the end of my beard.

The big tip I was given when growing my beard was to style it with combing or balming. When it looks shaggy and rough, just comb it to the shape/style you want it to look like. The only time I ever trimmed was when I got sick to fucking death of eating my moustache hair.

@DanCBearded my biggest mistake was allowing my barber to cut my neckline too high and my cheek line too low in the beginning growing stages. It was OK at first, but when I started to get length my beard looked transparent. My advice would be to train your barber on how to properly trim a beard, because most barbers do not know.

Just started my beard after over fifty years of clean shaving. Only into it two weeks and looking forward to it. My wife….well let’s just say it’s growin’ on her. Not a lover of facial hair, but says less about it as it’s growing out. I did trim the neck to the adams apple, but will now let it grow to add the thickness. Been a spell since my goatee in my twenties and would like a full beard at sentry-six! Didn’t realize the difference in shampoos-conditioners-oils and such for the hair and beard? I just remembered wax! Thank for all the info…..this old man needed it….and who knows, maybe in time my wife’ll thank you too!

My own biggest former problem over trimming and I now have stopped except for my lining I study on top of that but also I've been using a beard straightner use a good Argonne oil to help it not ruin your beard or damage from the heat although I have recently started using a blow dryer I like it more it helps hold down the stragglers all day and straightens so well as long as I use my beard oil and butter start on hot dry then after you done styling use cool dry setting then it will stay in that style

Good video, Dan. I've used beard wash from companies like Detroit grooming and the old whiskey and hardtack. I've also used high quality shampoo on my beard. I notice absolutely no issue. I think a lot of men use very stripping, cheap shampoo on their head. In my opinion, you shouldn't do that. And, if you use the good stuff, you can use it on your face, too. That's been my experience.

Im new to this but have benefited much from Dans videos, so far I use oil every morning, a very small touch of balm if loose ends are sticking out, and balm at night just before bed to retain hydration and I love the smell. I also have switched to beard wash and conditioner from Doc Nick’s, notice a big difference since stopping shampoo and conditioner for hair. I’m thinking about a heated brush to help straitened as my beard is quite wavy ? I don’t like the idea of a blow dryer. I just pat my beard dry, it’s still damp when i apply oil, I run my fingers thru to distribute the oil, Oil and water don’t mix so I think the little bit of wetness in the beard helps to distribute the oil thru the thick beard as I run my fingers thru ?

@thesalsathe, Dan C has a great video (or two ?) showing the proper way to use a blow dryer on your beard. I use a blow dryer almost every day using his method with no problems. It always looks better when I use the blow dryer. On days when I don’t use it, I’m just working around the house or just hanging out and just use beard oil or butter, just letting the products do the work of conditioning the beard without worrying about styling. Those heated brushes scare me though.

Tools: yes!! Cheap combos and brushes are terrible!! I am an old woodworker so I made a comb from black walnut wood. I’m going to make another and change a few things, but this comb has made a huge difference!!! It’s so smooth and I use it to work beard oil through so it’s absorbing that good stuff too! Well worth the trouble!! There’s a lot of good videos on how to make one if you’re handy and want to; or just get one off Amazon for under 20 bucks. Same source I use for my beard wash.

My list: Over-training and under-eating causes rapid hair loss and breakage for me. Not shaping the mustache for a couple of day's and having out of control tips. Hiding my thinning hair and skipping the barber when I grow out the beard. Wearing shirts brighter than my beard in the same color range, moss green shirts can make the red glow on my beard appear stronger. The last point brought me here questioning, are there known lifestyle choices etc that affect beard glow? There are rare weeks where my beard has multiple brown colors with a great orange glow and there are months where my beard appears darker blond to grey with a dull yellowish glow.

The oils have mineral oil in it, sometimes pure with perfume, sometimes mixed with vegetal oils. The balms are hair cream. The shampoos are just hair shampoo with a branding sayings its for beard. An beyond that, they costs a fortune. So i make my own oil, balm and butter with vegetal and essencial oils and shea butter...

Fifth mistake is a huge one. If you want to grow a beard you literally have to let it go and let it grow. Too many people don't have the patience or self-assurance to ignore negative feedback from others, especially family and friends. And they just end up trimming it too short or shaving it. I'd say give it at least two months, whether it's patchy or not, and just see how much progress you make in two months before doing any sort of trimming or shape-ups (try not to go to the barber or trim it yourself until at least two months. And continue along with that rule if you want to grow it even longer and longer).
