Tip of the day: Don't marry someone who doesn't let you grow whatever you want on your face

[@SimonSaysCanada]

Additional tip: once you put a ring on if, they morph 😝

Hilarious!

Pretty good review of the first few months of beard wearing.

[@Free_Henry_Ruggs_III]

8 weeks into my beard journey and I stumbled on this masterpiece. Went to like the video when it popped up in the French monologue. Expected there to be 10-20k likes. This video is so well put together and entertaining I thought this Chanel had at least 100k. Keep up the good work.

[@SimonSaysCanada]

Thank you very much! I’m KZbin’s best kept secret 5 years in a row!

[@k5vfo]

Executive style suits you. I enjoyed the video and your humor.

[@SimonSaysCanada]

My mom agrees with you - on both counts!

[@RealExpertsPro]

You are an amazing storyteller. Can't wait to check out the rest of your channel. I liked the style with the most length. But if it doesn't make you happy, rock what does. 💪😎

[@SimonSaysCanada]

Thank you! You just made my day!!

[@Rowan1McDonald]

Man I stumbled across this video because I'm trying to grow a beard. But damn you've put so much time and effort into this being good to watch and actually being useful and entertaing! I'm definitely subscribing!

[@SimonSaysCanada]

Thank you! How’s the beard doing so far?

Absolutely fantastic, bro! All of the styles looked good, man! Great video!

On watching it back, the Gamer Beard had to go 😅

great video! I can tell you put in a lot of effort into both the video and the beard! Definitely subscribing.

[@SimonSaysCanada]

Thanks - much appreciated!

[@randybinc.6443]

That was the most entertaining thing I have watched all month! You grew an amazing beard, a lot better than my patchy one.

[@SimonSaysCanada]

Thanks man! And patchy beards are charming - don’t let anyone tell you otherwise!!

[@calebrunne]

Kurt Russell stache was definitely the best! This was highly entertaining and encouraging at the same time. Thank you

Nah --> thank YOU for taking the time to comment!!

I did laugh out loud on the cowboy mustache reveal. Congrats

[@SimonSaysCanada]

Too funny, encourages me to stay vigilant and keep growing!

Hahaha, funny video mate. I liked it. Just starting my first ever beard journey at 37 years old after my six year old daughter asked me ehy i dont have a beard. Im six weeks in, starting to actually look like a beard now 🤣👌

[@SimonSaysCanada]

It is surprising how much care and time goes into growing a beard, isn’t it?

[@TugrulBeyOfficial]

Amazing job bro, i really enjoyed watching it 😂

[@SimonSaysCanada]

Its all cause of that stache!

This was so well done. 👍👏

I typed in beard and your video was one of the first hits to come up.

Just left University and was at the point of needing to shave constantly. Decided now was a good time to try and grow one to see how it could look. This video was useful and fun to watch

[@SimonSaysCanada]

Thanks for the good word my man!! Enjoy the workforce with a full confident beard!!

[@rodrigojesus8961]

Man super cool video, your so funny bro, thanks for the inspiration

[@SimonSaysCanada]

Thanks man! Fun times growing a beard!

[@jackallenfort6789]

A first rate funny video. That is one great effort and a job well done. I am 79 and in the second week of my first beard ever. I tried to grow a mustache when I was in my 20s, but it didn't work so I thought I could not grow a beard. If mine looked anything like yours I would be super happy. So far it is way better than I thought it would be. That is why I started watching these videos. Your is the best by far and will not be topped no matter how many more I watch. Thank you a bunch.

[@SimonSaysCanada]

Aw thank you, my man! You just made my day!! KEEP GROWING IT INTO YOUR 90s!!!

[@devkhatri6444]

Loved it, so much effort and so much funny video. The only thing I found missing is explaining at every stage what issues you went through and how you took care of them in terms of grooming like beard oil, balm, etc. But kudos champ

[@SimonSaysCanada]

Mostly good beard shampoo, to be honest! Oils of any kinds don’t work well with my thin-hairstrands.

[@Sergio-gm4gv]

Cool video

That was epic. I am 4 weeks in on the beard grow and people are starting to wonder if I'm starting to get bats in the belfry. Im going to say the half and half was kinda tough. 👍 Thanks for the great vid.

Bald head. Gotta make up for it somewhere!

@@SimonSaysCanada I guess that''s true

[@ggeorgeherny]

Executive beard looked excellent on you.

[@SimonSaysCanada]

Thank you, I appreciate that!

[@shawnknaack732]

I agree with some of the other comments. The longer version was definitely the best! 👌🏻 My issue is that I feel I sometimes fade too much off so I’m trying to teach myself to do a nice fade while not trimming too much length off the other areas.

[@SimonSaysCanada]

That’s always super tricky to do… Better to be conservative with the trims, or let a professional handle it!

[@aaronmbaye6498]

Your way better with a beard bro.

[@guidoz1747]

Which style do we want? Do we count? It's the wife's call, only the wife's call, and nothing but the wife's call! I mean: Burt Reynolds - married at least twice, Tom Selleck - married at least twice, ok, Sam Elliot only once, according to WIkipedia (but he was her 5th husband, so clearly she couldn't make up her mind.) Need I say more? Listen to the wife!

[@SimonSaysCanada]

Happy wife, happy life….. BUT I LIKE BEARDS DAMMIT!!! 😄

[@massivewon]

If the wife doesn't like your hair/facial hair (provided it's presentable and not unkempt) and will deny affection/intimacy over it, then you're better off leaving and finding the right person. If you didn't like her hairstyle, she would do the same or call it @buse.

[@SimonSaysCanada]

@massivewon WORD. Leaving now!

[@kendrewfunk7106]

I been struggling to grow something for years. I didn't shave when I figured out that "shaving helps growth" was a myth. Yet still barely have fuzz on my face. I don't know how you went from struggling to able to grow that without supplements.

[@SimonSaysCanada]

The chin beard I’ve had for 20 years is the part that grows the slowest BY FAR whereas my mustache is possessed by the growth demons -- because I have been shaving it off every other day for 30 years. Shaving ofyen does stimulate growth in the long haul.

[@thefuturetellsourpast4570]

Is there anyway to fix a patchy beard ? I don’t like a long beard so I keep it shorter like 17mm all around . Is there anyway to increase thickness? More hair coverage, less skin showing?

[@SimonSaysCanada]

As far as I know, or at least for my face, aggressive shaving (like once a day) for an extensive period of time has stimulated growth - so everything but my chin beard grows at an alarming rate - but for patchy spots, I don’t know… Didn’t work on my bald head.

[@TheAlphamale215]

They have rollers with micro blades almost it doesn't hurt but it helps with that

Mustache was really cool 😎

[@SimonSaysCanada]

Thanks Victor! Upkeep was a lot of work though!

[@Medomsley]

Well done for trying it out Simon, it looked great especially the moustache,, but was hoping for an even bigger handlebar...lol. So, until you grow again perhaps revert to the original goatee (that looked smart|) but with a slim line moustache to go with it?

[@SimonSaysCanada]

I would’ve had one if the barber hadn’t chopped too much of it! I had planned for a “Van Dyke” step down from the big beard keeping the stache, but the wife gave me an ultimatum… Had to adapt. Not sure a small pencil stache would be a good look on me…

[@Medomsley]

@@SimonSaysCanada Shame about the barber mishap Simon, you could do a magnificent handlebar. Try the slim liner, would be a good contrast to what you had before. Anyhow, keep the hairy experiments coming-you did well, and don't get bullied by she who must be obayed...lol.

[@DaveKaramazov]

Righteous beard! Your accent doesn't sound typically Canadian to me. What is it?

[@SimonSaysCanada]

It’s french-Canadian with a lot of work to remove as much of it as possible. Still a ways to go, I guess!

[@dkbrinlee]

I grew a beard back in 2013 and never went back. You look better personally.

[@SimonSaysCanada]

I always look best when half of my face is covered 😄

[@dkbrinlee]

But I do agree the mustache is a deal breaker with most significant others and everything you eat and drink get into it. Pros and cons.

[@olamstaden]

the one with the cowboy hat looks best

[@SimonSaysCanada]

But if I wear a cowboy hat in this town, I’ll look ridiculous! Quebec City is all about tuques, beanies and 16th century fur hats!!

[@josephevans2912]

Should have kept the beard and big mustache
