ULTIMATE ADVICE FOR BIG BEARD GOALS

[@cfdmedic78]

Always had facial hair, as well as all the men in my family, but it's only been since my retirement that I have let it grow. I just past my first year without trimming the beard and loving it! It's amazing the compliments that I receive from both men and women since I let it grow and flow. I especially like the looks and stares I get from the little children who think I'm that jolly old elf himself! Thanks for the encouragement to keep it growing!

[@metothemoon1227]

Amazing comment and fantastic beard sir.

[@abramgrey2237]

This guy got the best beard a man can have..he never over do things like sharp edge or too much 🍥 swirly moustache..perfect beard snowy white.. 🤍

[@Mr.Shariph]

I have watched many KZbinrs’ beard advise but I think George Bruno’s is the only advise I was looking for to change my beard game for life ...thanks for what you are doing brother✌🏽

[@El_Chompo]

this dude is too cool. somebody stop him before he reaches absolute zero

[@MrMikeyt65]

Too late!! The man is an iceberg cool!

[@TheJoeCool1964]

George Bruno is the best all round channel for all real men. I love him, my Wife loves him. Thanks George, I'm a better person because of you.

[@nickfish629]

First time beard, I’m 10 months in and flipping love it! Great video Brutha 👊🏻

[@roberts6185]

Nice talk. I've been in health care for over 20 years and recently retired. I've had hair down to my A$$ and really short, but always kept the beard short for work. I've missed having a long beard. It's about 4" long now, was about to give in to trimming it some and you just talked me out of it. Thanks!

[@yvesmachiels1076]

Thanks for the STOP STOP concerning the trimming. Got the message. Greetings from Belgium. Oh and love your vids, keep 'em posted.

[@andrewhill4986]

What an awesome beard. Thanks for the inspiration

[@alexbaker9967]

Please make more beard content I miss that so helpful too!!!

[@seanandhelen]

Awesome beard. Awesome video. I’ve been growing for 18 months and trimming the sides. I do regret that. Now I’m growing my sides out with plans to only trim (fast growers) from the bottom hopefully 3 or 4 years down the line I’ll be making my own videos. You are right. You’ve got to put the time in.

[@brianwaters3069]

I finally stopped trimming the sideburn area and now I'm paying the price, but slowly I'm getting closer to my goal......love your videos.

[@abechapa8229]

This is pure GOLD!!! I’m 6 months into on my beard journey

[@GoalieByAl]

You sir get a Platinum star! I am 6 months into this journey. I am 64 and have always started a beard in October and 5 weeks in have always shaved it off because a few bald spots. This year I decided to push through the awkward stages. My beard looks great now because of you.

[@tonyalmeida1746]

Same here I have a great long beard because of Bruno 's advice. Thanks

[@metothemoon1227]

Sir your beard is really magnificent.

[@robertog8804]

Man I miss this series of videos. Helped me grow a big healthy beard. Grazie George

[@140ish]

I'm 23 years old and have just started to let my beard grow. This video is great and has some very useful tips. Thanks Gray. Keep beardin'

[@ListenMySon]

+140ish Keep it going young beard brotha! You'll look great. Just be patient. Peace.

[@snakejuce]

It's been 5 years. What happened?

[@SuperSkullSplitter]

My beard gets to about the same length every time and I always trim it. Then I regret it! I'm letting it grow this time, your videos are a real inspiration man 👍

[@ListenMySon]

+David Beattie Let it grow and let it flow

[@SuperSkullSplitter]

I think I'm going to get that phrase tattooed on my forearm to remind me during moments of weakness!

[@craigfletcher8668]

You made videos for your bearded friends and now you have a George Bruno bearded community. I've been watching these for about a year and a half now and occasionally look back at some of your first videos and trip out on how long your beards grown. As your beard has grown so have your subscribers and my beard as well. Absolute wealth of knowledge you have put out there for us all and encourage the newbies to check out all the other great topics apart from just the beard advice. Great video brother 👊

[@lexingtonlad5745]

You should try a chicago comb. It's a game changer.

[@roem8672]

That was a real and rare help...very unique...thank you so much

[@Srkcycles]

I didn't even know that you had your own KZbin channel. This is amazing. Great channel you make me feel encouraged that I don't trim my beard. Just letting it grow. We should do a collaborative video sometime.

[@coach20348]

Did you guys ever collaborate? I’m curious.... This is how I’ve been doing my beard for close to 2 years now. Almost exactly with the stache and white beard and all. Trimmed once about 6 months in..... I regretted it.

[@joryarmstrongest4938]

Great video and great advice! Exactly the pep talk I needed this morning! cheers!

[@brandonlejeune8184]

I had made an appointment to shape my beard this Friday.. this video has convinced me not to go.i have about 4 to 5 inches of length. second thought I might just go to get the old stache trimmed up and a nice hair cut.. ty for your words of wisdom sir.. beard on my bearded brothas

[@robertcutter7956]

Thank you. I'm on day 3 of 365 of my Yeard. I have never gone beyond 3 months of growth before. This is going to be fun! LET IT GO AND LET IT FLOW.

[@allnations360]

Did you do it

[@grandmasterb4471]

George, Im at 10 months and have not trimmed my beard at all and have just passed the second button on my dress shirt. I'm on my way; enjoying the videos.

[@andromydous]

When I did a beard reboot, I got rid of the razors and trimmers. I don't even trim my mustache (personal preference). I want my beard to grow as long as it can for at a minimum of 1 year. I've learned from you and other youtubers that trimming it is counter productive to my goal. When it is time to trim, however, I don't think there are any beard smith's where I live. So, I'm not sure what I'll do at that point. I'll just cross that bridge when I get there. I've got a little under 6 more months to go.

[@Clogmonger]

I really needed this today. my beard is about 8months old, about half your length. problem is that it's getting very thin on the edges and I'm dying to trim it down and get it more thick and even looking. My beard looks fine, the trim isn't really necessary. I'm getting close to my goals and this video is a big help.

[@riboklyngdohnongpyiur7084]

Never seen Gandalf with a cap talk so much..... But I loved it......it helps me alot...

[@joemadsen2917]

Great beard. I haven't shaved for 5 1/2 months I'm trying to grow mine like yours

[@gregabbott3358]

Great advice, thank you for keeping it beard simple

[@echodelta9]

The 2 best stylists I have ever met are water and gravity. I do not have a comb and the brush is used only a little on the sides. I get the Greek statue sculpted look with many rivers of flowing hair together in harmony. A low heat and blow sets the hair around my mouth only. Quite the natural way to go.

[@OnlyBelieve1987]

Thank you for the tips 3 months into my all natural long beard journey (fly aways today are a great beard tomorrow)

[@beardedguardian71]

That's a fantastic beard sir and great advise as well.

[@Fr3d3rick91]

Thank you. I had my beard big once and cant seem to get back to it. Trimming is my best down fall.

[@yeslordone]

I've been doing beard research and I want my beard like yours

[@dougnoe7094]

Good advice… probably the best advice I’ve heard. I’m going for it, that was New Year’s resolution!!

[@btofan]

Kudos on 150+ POSITIVE videos George.

[@BadBeardDude]

I've been guilty for a while now in trying to keep things neat and tidy, getting the sides of the beard trimmed and just as you're saying in this video, it's sticking out constantly and I have to admit I have days where it drives me nuts. I've decided about a month ago to stop getting the beard trims, usually I'd get it done when I'm getting the top done. The beard is starting to come together better for it. I've starting making my own balm to keep the sides down while I'm transitioning into the longer length. I'll be reducing the amount of balm I'll be using once it starts to stay down on it's own when gravity kicks in. Really enjoy your videos dude. Keep em coming.

[@steveaird9347]

I love your beard sir I am looking forward to getting mine at long

[@catalinemerich2544]

I've never been able to go past a certain lenght without trimming it because it get's to shallow (don't know it that's the propper word) at the edge and you can see through it. I've come to think that each individual has a certain length at with his beard looks thick and good. Don't know it it's true or not, but for me, it's the explanation that works. Also, the sides are way to curly to let grow out, for my personal confort, because I like having a beard, a rather big beard...but I will not sacrifice too much time out of each day to straghten it out as it grows, and I'd rather trim it to an easly maintainable lenght...but it's just personal opinion. Other than that, I think what you're saying makes perfect sense for whoever wants the big/epic beard look.

[@dannycampbell1294]

Glad i just discovered your beard videos, time to get out of the bad habits and get better brushes, amazing beard, thanks for the advice from the U.K

[@deathies123]

This is the most helpful and obvious beard advice I have ever heard! Of course it makes sense to not trim your beard if the goal is to grow it. It always sounds nonsensical when someone tells me to trim your beard to shape it and allow it to grow "fuller". That is the worst advice I have ever heard because you're just making your beard short again and making it even longer of a wait to grow longer. "You can't trim your way to a big beard". Amen brotha!

[@jasonlindsey9946]

Let it grow,let it grow, Let it Grow!

[@MidWesti]

this was great advice that i much needed. I have a 4 month beard. longest i grew in the past was a 14 monther. but i trimmed several strays because i was younger and didnt know. I am 33 now and just letting it go. im most happy with my mustache right now. the sides i have always been a little self concious about. they are thinner.. not terrible. but thinner. also my one side grows the opposite direction like you mentioned of yours. patience is seriously key. aside from genetics of course. ive been debating on just running a long cowboy style mustache but i think i will let it go another couple months and see how i feel after the 6 month marker. Thanks again.

[@natc2191]

You are awesome sir! I'm going to let it grow and flow!

[@Tirbuson]

Thanks man for this video, now I know what to do for a longer beard. I will skip barber shop for 3 month, to see what will happen.

[@fatbikearcticnomad2122]

This guy is awesome. Very knowledgeable with beards!! 💪💪

[@macxri428]

Great video George, thanks for the wise lessons.

[@henrythompson5149]

That's cool George but what about using moisturizer for your hair on your beard during the day to keep it moist until the end of the day? Once again you are The Genie of the Beards.

[@za9462]

Thanks for the brutal honesty. I drive a truck so nobody gives a shit so I let it grow. Messed it up getting it trimmed for a wedding when a barber fucked it up. Not trimming it again ever.

[@fuzzybuddywizard]

Thanks George. I've been following your videos for three months and my beard is looking great. My question is how do you respond to family, friends and co-workers who make comments that seem kidding yet negative? It's not just the growth of my beard, its the growth of my patience and character that changed and this seems to unsettle people. Can you offer any witty comebacks that won't offend?

[@boomdizzil]

Awesome! Started my quest for length in January before I saw any of your vids and lately I have been agonizing over the question of late: "To trim or not to trim." I want to agree with your philosophy but unfortunately I have a job and I need to keep the mane reasonably tame. I have purchased the BB styling balm and it does work wonders with unruly course hair. Very much worth the money if you want to keep the wildness under control during the work week. Good stuff sir! You are the wind beneath my beard, er, that's just wrong.

[@olobaful]

I loved all. But it crosses my mind if you just let a course beard grow naturally it will get different results. Quite different from "straight" beards.

[@The-Friendly-Grizzly]

That beard - regardless how you achieved it, is incredible!

[@LLBrown-uf6wl]

My beard is only about 10 in but your advice is so true. Great video. You just got a new fan and subscriber LOL

[@nethercords]

bristle brushes are an absolute necessity for long beards/yeards

[@jeremyn6825]

Epic beard brother. Mine has been going for about a year and a half and love it. I do use some oil on some days but mostly I let my beard do it's own thing. Grow and flow is right. Patience guys and give it a chance.

[@geoff2911]

I'm on month 4 or 5 I don't know, I didn't really plan on growing a long beard I wasn't paying attention to when I started, I let it grow I haven't trimmed one hair I'm letting it grow how it wants to grow for a year without touching it no matter how crazy it gets after that I will have it trimmed to how I want it don't shave above your Adam's Apple because you need that neck hair to help thicken and fill out your beard it will make a big difference

[@MrJamiez]

How's the beard growth going? Im 3 months into my yeard. Good luck my bearded brother! 👍🏻

[@muhammedmohammed7487]

Thanks for for all of your awesome videos. I'm a huge fan .

[@SkyScorpions]

Watched some of your old videos and decided to buy some beard conditioner from the Groomed Man Co and beard oil from Kingsman Beard Club. A few dollars more from what I was using, but spot on with the quality!

[@shawnberg5691]

Glad I ran across this video. "Let go of the obsession". Going for the big beard again. Mine is unfathomably dense..and tight curls. The ONLY trimming I have done is my mustache (for the same reasons..eating & drinking & my significant other) and along the very back of my jawline by my ears (seems to grow these weird wings I can't stand) which also gives it a nice bit of shape. Other than that...no trimming. Sad to see you've cut the big beard since this was released. I appreciate the time you take to put out these videos.

[@Angel_Ripoff]

Thanks for sharing, great message!

[@TerryManitoba]

So your beard is long and relatively soft. Was it much more course when it was 3-4 inches long?

[@LIGHTERONE1]

Great videos you have George and a super cool looking beard.

[@MrHollick]

Great video as always! I finally decided to grow a big beard myself this year and haven't shaved since Christmas. I made the unfortunate mistake of visiting a barber shop after three months and decided I could use a little trim since I was getting pretty scruffy well after I got to the car I was absolutely horrified at how much they " trimmed". Probably set me back a month or more. Needless to say I wish I had found your channel before that decision. I will not make that mistake again and hopefully when I am finally ready I can make the trip to PA and have you take care of it as I don't think I could ever trust anyone else!!!

[@zacmitty7851]

Great beard & advice.

[@drummsticker]

Great points Gray...my beard defines me as well. People never forget me now. Unfortunately I think I’m beginning to reach terminal length at 7”. I have forwarded this to another beard brother...Thx!

[@marklawrence855]

Fantastic beard, im 5 months not trimming, hopefully it will get nice and long 🤞

[@tairapeace]

Best advice for a big beard!

[@seimer1970]

[@RRzombie632]

Absolutely glorious beard sir, well done.

[@michaelpung4121]

I always said that I was going to stop shaving when I retired. I'm four years late so I've got some catching g up to do but it's been almost five months now. Interesting journey for sure. Thanks for your encouragement and videos George. I appreciate your help and wisdoms!

[@michaelbell390]

I'm going into month 2 now but a long beard is the goal here..just let it be and all will work it self out.👍

Color ur beard with Katama and Henna Mix then see how Majestic it will look

[@jw9658]

Hi Bruno, appreciate all your tips and advice, been following you almost since the beginning..could u elaborate on not using a wooden come after applying balm? How does it ruin your comb?

[@Vinayak_0203]

So true ...just grow it out...m on a Yeard challenge. ..Wishe me luck

[@reichardnixon6852]

favorite video so far. thank you.

[@TemplarOfTheWolf]

Great video. My problem is that I have twice as much follicles compared to Georges's beard, so it is very, VERY hard for me to tame my beard at a certain phase of growing. Therefore, I must trim it. However, after watching this, I think I'm gonna (try to) change my practice.

[@cheesyjube]

I wish my beard was this nice. I have been growing mine for a year now. But coarse curly beard is hard to grow and keeps breaking.

[@sserna1077]

Cheesy jube every person's beard is different I know its easy to look at someone else's beard and wish it his but you have to embrace your own beard and learn to love it because it will always be yours

[@beardedvegan9958]

best beard video on youtube!

[@rockclimbing3844]

Great advice. Thanks.

[@David-xt3rc]

great video as always george!!!

[@joshualuntsford]

4:06 ok. Ok. I will. I have always trimmed a little but. NO MORE TRIMMING

[@michaelbartlett6412]

What about trimming to get rid of split ends? I have always been told that you need a trim every so often to remove them because they hinder growth.

[@zorbajevon]

I'm blessed with a beard to my throat. Im going to stop getting it cut in December. See how long it gets.

[@bon2198]

Sounds like Dr. Fever!!!!!!!! for those who remember that show.

[@AttackWithStyle]

Phenomenal beard

[@silentstream8787]

Hi George new subscriber I'm trying to grow my beard out in the years past I've shaved underneath my chin around my neck under the beard to keep it clean now I realize I need to let that grow so I have about 8 inch beard with about an inch and a half a curls underneath it any special advice for the curls underneath just let them grow I know it's going to make my beard look fuller and I liked it in the long run any help would be appreciated

[@jglightbody]

I love BeardBrand's Styling Balm!!!!!

[@ListenMySon]

No doubt it's a great product I highly recommend

[@BK-fq1yi]

At the end of the month I’ll be at 6 months. The only thing I trimmed is my mustache which I regret. My beard is still very patchy and I think it looks terrible. I’m probably just going to get it shaped once I hit my 6 months because I just want a nice and tight beard that doesn’t really hang off my face but if I get it trimmed I’ll be going back to the beginning again

[@nickestes8775]

Beautiful beard man

[@LeeHoMusic]

love your advice, it sounds very logic.

[@fedupoldguyfedupoldguy6154]
