How to get Faster Beard Growth!?

[@andrewd980]

Beards take time. For everyone. That is part of the reward for growing it. Grow it in confidence! Join the community for support if you don't feel it in your personal life (small comments from friends and family hurt, we have all gotten them). Beard on!

[@DanCBearded]

Love this comment Andrew!

[@funkdaddy3.0]

Spot on DanC. Also, get rid of preconceived notions of what you think your beard should look like and let it go to where it wants to go. This is my beard. There are many like it, but this one is mine. Rock whatcha got.

[@DanCBearded]

Ohhh, well said! as always. Thank you steve!

[@DeliberatelyBearded]

I was lucky I found you at the start of my beard journey!!!

[@DanCBearded]

That is so humbling to hear!

[@dougsloan3822]

Welcome to the new beardos out there! I think it’s really easy to fall into that trap of comparing your beard to others you see around you, in the workplace, online, etc. By nature, we’re competitive-and some may want to give up if their beard wasn’t what they saw in their mind’s eye. One of the most important things to remember, and a direct quote from Dan C-Someone out there would kill for your beard! Wear it with pride and confidence!

[@DanCBearded]

You are the man Doug, thank you for everything you do!

[@jtblb1385]

Some of the qualities a "good" beard projects are patience, dedication, and self-confidence. They are no longer stereotyped for slackers, hippies, and the homeless

[@DanCBearded]

Oh mannn, well said!! I love this comment

[@jryanr2010]

Indeed! I'm glad public opinion has shifted!

[@bakerbbq221]

Great words bro!

[@SleeperHoundDesign]

It was important for me to understand that different parts of my beard grew at different rates. Places that I thought would be patchy ended up growing in hair.

[@DanCBearded]

Great point!

[@kevinwelch7598]

A healthy beard is like any other healthy relationship... the more you put in to the care for that relationship the better the well-being...#Staybearded

[@DanCBearded]

[@saxman7131]

I count beard growth in 3 month periods. You just have to wait for the prize and that makes it even more worthwhile. Thanks Dan.

[@DanCBearded]

Really great experience comment Scott!

[@daveanddianethrowingcautio5707]

Patience was harder at the beginning. Once my beard reached 4 inches or so and I "just my feeling" felt I really had a beard going patience got easier. Now I'm at over 5 inches and I don't think about the growth as much, again just my feelings.

[@jryanr2010]

I agree! Maintaining patience is more difficult during the awkward stages.

[@DanCBearded]

Sooo very true!

[@kevinr1704]

Preach it teach! You have to be patient with this process. Like so many great things in life, you have to be patient or you'll never see the results you want.

[@DanCBearded]

Thank you Kevin!

[@hoopinessandjoy]

I had no idea the beard community was so positive and uplifting! IMO You are the poster-boy for all the encouragement I have gained from this community on KZbin. Thanks for all you do.

[@DanCBearded]

That’s an awesome comment, thank you Sam!!

[@randallrushing6801]

I do at times, want to rush my beard growth since I burnt most of it by accident. It took me basically 4 years to grow to my collarbone. At the same time, I enjoy caring and watching my beard grow. I really don't think there are beard growth products out there that would force anyone's genes, but I do take two beard growth capsules to keep the beard healthy along with eating clean as much as possible. I am not an exercising man at all even though I have heard exercising helps. I was at a barbershop once and someone made a comment, "I'd kill to have your beard!" That's an excellent compliment I received so enjoy and don't feel rushed. Everyone will have that length that is aimed eventually.

[@DanCBearded]

Oh absolutely!

[@coltlitsey2455]

I’m 20 years old and have been growing my beard for about 16 months now. Your channel has been so helpful on my journey! New beardsmen, do not be discouraged. I didn’t have a fully grown beard until about 7-8 months of growing. It just takes time.

[@DanCBearded]

Awesome to hear!

[@grantmeacham]

Extremely well put! I used to get sidetracked and discouraged by guys flexing their "perfect" beards online, but I've come to embrace what I have and learn that patience is one of the best gifts of the beard journey. Glad to have found your channel early in my growing this time around, because it's made a huge difference in my self-perception of it!

[@christopherpool8884]

Patience and long term healthy habits were the hardest pills for me to swallow. But. They. Work. Thanks for the continued reminder.

When I started my beard journey in November, I went 2 weeks without knowing anything about beard care. I’ve learned so much from you, Bthebarber, Bearded Existence and others. I’ve developed a daily, nightly and weekly routine that has my growing beard looking healthy and feeling good. Thanks for weekly tips. Keep doing what you’re doing. It’s appreciated.

Great video Dan ... as always, educational and inspiring. I'm growing my first real beard (I turned 60 this year) and it has taken me a couple of months to reach a point that I look in the mirror and go "Damn, I like where this is headed!" Your videos inspired me to stick with it, not give up, and enjoy this process, and your channel has introduced me to a brotherhood of guys that support and encourage each other. I have to say, the right products have made a WORLD of difference, so thanks for the guidance and education that you provide. Keep growing my friends!!

[@DanCBearded]

Thank you fellas for the kind words. That is all the fuel I need!

[@mattfranklin1857]

Taking a daily multivitamin goes along way too. I’m right at a year and this channel has been the biggest help and a place of encouragement when I was down about my beard. Just remember wards are like snow flakes yours is yours and like no one else’s. We can’t cut em to the same shape but they are different. Love your snowflake make it your own and proudly rock it. Your pretty much a star belly sneetch when you rock the beard lol.

[@michaellarge4139]

I am so glad I found this channel and Dan's Facebook page just as I was starting the first beard in my 52 years of life. Both have helped me tremendously and both are full of a bunch of guys who offer advice and encouragement. I'm about 4 months in on my chin which is the longest I've ever gone and 3 months in on my face and neck and I never in my life I would go that long without shaving but I am loving this journey I'm on and a lot of the reason are the men here and on Facebook. Thanks, Dan and everyone else!

Great video Dan. Patience is a Bearded virtue

[@DanCBearded]

Sooo true!

[@mrcrispy4983]

Patience is most certainly a virtue and a critical component of getting the beard you want. You must also muster up some confidence and bring that with you for the ride. If you are serious about growing a beard then consider the time it takes to be an intentional (key word) investment in yourself. You will be rewarded for that and not just with rocking a new beard. Watching channels like this will help you to stay positive, informed, and supported throughout the journey. Great message and content , Dan C!

[@DanCBearded]

Thank you sir!!

[@bakerbbq221]

Oil and butters definitely help the feel of my beard. I didn't know a whole lot about them in the beginning of my beard journey. Started with Honest Amish, my first brard oil. I now have 6 or 7 that I use in rotation. Also good styling habits have greatly helped as well. Lastly I am now using Biotin and gummies from Beard Octane. Dan C, your videos have greatly helped me with learning about beard habits and grooming along with products reviews. GOD BLESS THIS CHANNEL MY FRIEND🙏

[@DanCBearded]

Thank you Jim!!

Definitely using the proper beard products and diet and exercise make a big difference. I really love using beard butter at night. Using a heated brush has worked wonders for me.

[@DanCBearded]

Totally agree!

[@joeyk3134]

It's genetics to the point that you shouldn't consider yourself a failure when your beard isn't exactly like one you see on someone else.

[@machoman6969]

What I do is moderate calisthenics exercising, walking and running every day and in my experience it made mine grow faster. 😀 And drink lots of water!!!

[@DanCBearded]

That’s awesome!

[@fraserd123]

I've been clean shaven probably since i was 15. Now 35 I decided to grow a beard. I think I must be very lucky as my beard is growing extremely fast and wish I had done it years ago. I've been watching Dan C from the very start of my journey so I feel I've been using the correct products such as oil balm and butter. Come Christmas I will be 3 months of growth and I look like a completely different person for the better.

[@DanCBearded]

So fricken cool to hear that!

Thanks for the video Dan. Being patient, exercising and eating well are not the easiest. Life lessons we should all practice regardless of having a beard or not. I do however, love my morning and evening beard routine. That’s the easy part for me.

[@DanCBearded]

You can do it!

[@badnbeardedcasey]

Personally, there have been times where I've caught myself thinking, "what would happen if I start over?" Remember that everyone wishes to for a bigger beard, faster growing beard etc... The people who have those bigger beards also wish for something different about their beard also. I can honestly say I wish I had appreciated my beards growth process more than I did. I would have done more things differently than wish for more hair, more faster. Appreciate the process, listen to your beard, respond to your beard and ask questions when needed. You will learn more about your beard and what does and doesn't work. Who knows, you may figure out your own "tips and tricks" to share with community. 👊

[@DanCBearded]

Love this comment Bobby!

[@LY-jm9vu]

Patience is very important. Let it grow & don’t start “tidying it up”. So many beards are wrecked this way. It should be left alone for a minimum of 3 months. Ideally leave it alone for 6 months.

If you live in a place that does not get a lot of sunshine, you may benefit from taking vitamin d3. I live where we don't get enough so I started taking a supplement, and immediately noticed my nails and hair growing faster. Another nutrient that likely most are low on is silica, I notice a faster nail growth with it too. I'm not an expert but this is what worked for me.
