Your beard looks great....the look that I am trying to attain. I purchased the brio, the very first attempt to trim the neck line caused me to cut myself with the brio, I checked to make sure that the built in guard was pushed all of the way forward, tried again and once again cut myself, I even pulled the skin tight. I ended up using shaving cream and a razor. Great tutorial! Thank you!

I'm older then you I'm 66 years old I've been growing beards of al types sense I was 18 years old. I've had beards to my chest and beards shorter then your current beard and beards right about where yours is now. My point is... you nailed it.. you actually did your beard just about the exact same way that's I've done mine for over 45 years. I've never had my beard touched by a barber in my entire life. Now that I shave my head.. after having hair to my butt that I could sit on... for years... I shave my own head thus... I haven't been to a hair salon or barber in over 10 years... What I save in doing my own head and beard I can spend on good skin and beauty aka manly Maintenace products. I do the clean up touch ups about every two weeks on my beard.. if I am keeping it short and tight ... close to your current beard state... thanks well done.

I have a question but before I ask, I need to give a bit of a background. I have a pretty thick beard but the right side of my face has hair growing towards my ear. So, at longer lengths (>20mm), the difference between both sides is quite significant when brushing. The left side brushes down smoothly but the right side is bumpy since I'm sort of going sideways of hair growth. When I brush the right side out in the direction of growth (towards my ear), it becomes as smooth as the left side when brushed down. Now here's the question : when using a beard trimmer with a guard, trimming the left side is easy because when brushed down, I'm going with the grain and I can trim the way you showed. But on the right side, do I brush outward FIRST (to have the beard sit in the direction of growth) and then trim with the direction or do I just brush it down (even though it's bumpy) and then trim? Thank you!
@GregBoswell4282 жыл бұрын
I just brush or comb in the direction the whole beard in the same desired direction and then trim. Then I tweak the problem areas to bring symmetry to the beard.

I was doing 15mm on the body of the beard and 12 on the sides, when you said the mm you are using in the video I was shocked, it looked so short! but you know what? I think I'll give it a try, I'm getting tired of using a hair dryer every morning to give it a decent shape, and a hair dryer after the gym, I don't spend much time on it, but it will save me 20 minutes a day. I also started working in a place that requires a good presence in front of the client and I think I would look better in a suit.

After doing it... it turned out spectacular! much more formal, it is scary to think of a 9mm clamp because it comes to mind when you go against the grain, but in the same direction there is a very presentable beard and the skin does not show through it either, that is what I like.
