On Carlos' last day in Austin, Texas, he's coming at you with a video about how he maintains his beard.
He admits his beard genetics are a big help, but he also says that having the right tools to keep your beard looking its best is key. Carlos' suggestion? A pair of Beardbrand trimming scissors, one of our Kent combs, one of our 100% boar's hair brushes, a bottle of beard oil, and some mustache wax.
He also recommends trimming and shaping every two weeks or so. While Carlos typically goes to a barber twice a month to keep his beard trimmed, he talks about how he does at-home trims, and discusses how he cuts the area around his sideburns shorter and slowly tapers to a longer length toward his cheeks and jaw. Be sure to keep your neckline in check - right above the Adam's apple is a good marker for where to trim and cut to keep a good shape.

cutting it short and growing it out would help us out a lot if you gave tips ect along the way!

[@Drinkyoghurt]

I find the scissors to be more challenging when trimming than the clippers. Clippers without guard for shaping and moustache maintenance and a No. 6 guard for cheek trimming. When your beard grows out fast using scissors is just a pain in the ass for upkeep unless you're letting it grow out and just taking care of strays.

[@JoeL-qb3gi]

He is an amazing beard. I would like Carlos to start from the beginning.

[@ofirsamu141]

love your beard carlos costa. i'd be glad to see you with close shave beard and to see the progress of growth... you're the man!!

[@NotoriousNUGS]

Shave it down and grow a year beard, with monthly updates. I think that would be awesome for the channel.

[@omegahtv6779]

I'm loving your beard brother Carlos, I'm aiming at the way you have yours to style mine. I had PLENTY of full beards down through the years, even up to last month which was September of 2016, and mentally NONE of them"clicked" with me till I saw yours. I currently have....or "had" the Suge Knight beard, but I have changed it to your style as of October of this year with the only difference is that I have the small"slits" in my beard where you can see my goatee a little more clearly. I too Carlos have been genetically blessed with strong healthy hair,thank God. I have a head full of dreadlocks and I think"THIS" style of a full beard will complement me,perfectly. wish me luck bro, and thank you and the whole Breardbrand crew for your page, and for being SUCH an encouragement to us men....... Beard on!

[@Beardbrand]

Well thanks for the love, and beard on! -Zach

[@WayniacKT]

Thank you sir, good info here. Native Texan here so glad you got to visit our great state. Safe travels home.

[@Deriv801]

+WayniacKT Good luck to you Texans aswell, heard it is a dire situation with the weather there.

[@danielbradshaw4218]

It would be cool if you shaved it and posted updates regularly on how it grows and how you maintain it! Love your videos and as I guess you know - you've got an amazing beard! Also I love your style, real inspiration!

[@headoftaxreformandpercenta4908]

A perfect beard

[@AVAtticus182]

stubble to full beard video series? I'd like it.

[@jackhaworth5492]

Great video. Thanks a lot, Carlos. Also, congratulations on such a great beard and well done for putting the time into it to make it look as good as it does!

[@fatzenman]

Thank you for your tips on bearding! You have a great, thick beard, it appears to be very fast growing! Leave it the way you like it!

[@carlosvillegascarlosvilleg8408]

Hello Carlos. I think that all of us with a beard for a very long time is always good to make changes in the way just because you want it. The awesome thing is that our facial hair is always growing, is very dinamic just like our appearance. So there are many types of beards out there. And the best of all is that all the choices are good. Just as long as you try and like to make them. So I just went to a barber 2 weeks ago and I had it full medium size but I want to make a change and try something different and now is pretty short and I like it also. So no regrets. I get use to it little by little and I can honestly tell you that I like it a lot. So it will be very useful for us to share and have your opinion about this. If you do it, well... congratulations my friend, but also if you don't! There are no bad choices on this! Beard on!

[@kameelelian935]

You , Jeff , and Eric have changed my beardsman experience. Thanks bro definitely going for a beard and Stache more along your style

[@drums4life5]

great content from carlos!

[@andrewDReamer]

Thanks Carlos you have ideal shape and cool beard!

[@carlosvillegascarlosvilleg8408]

You have a great beard now. But it will be also great short beard, medium lenght, long epic, etc. Just as long as you keep taking care of it as you do and show to us in this good videos. We all have interest of taking care of it as a daily routine in our lives. I think that beards are more connected with us and reflect a lot about our personality. They always stay with us, much more than fashion or other good and useful items for keeping a great appearance. Beard on!

[@Beardbrand]

+Carlos Villegas Carlos Villegas And beard on to you as well, sir! -Zach

[@RhaegarRustbeard]

Thanks Carlos

[@RuthlessTB7]

do it man, inspire us

[@Hachebk]

Thanks man!

[@Cogsy666]

Beard looks amazing Carlos 👌 really nervous about getting mine trimmed and shaped after growing it for a year.

[@Beardbrand]

+Cogsy666 It's a tough step to take for sure, but it's like a much-needed haircut: afterward you'll feel clean, fresh, and you'll be on point! Have fun with it! -Zach

[@padgettga]

Good day Carlos, could you please tell me what size do you use on your cheeks (inches etc) how do you make your beard look sharp from the cheeks and bulky roundish from your chin? Would appreciate your answer! Brgds.

[@eduardochagas2672]

Força, Carlos!

[@garymoore3446]

[@therealbigman2000]

[@Beardbrand]

+therealbigman2000 Yeah Carlos' beard is the envy of many dudes. -Zach

[@johnhorchler5447]

Sure do that

[@jorgefrancisco8969]

Hey Carlos where did you bought that badass watch?

[@martinpeterhughes9165]

I was just wondering that Carlos, about your beard growing faster on one side, because I was looking at you and I was thinking to myself , his Beard grows faster on his left

[@barrymclaughlin8816]

can anyone tell me the name of this style of beard plz ???

[@danieldol.1930]

I would love to see you start from the beginning, would help me a lot, your beard looks amazing, I'm also portuguese so I'm guessing we have similar genetics, so I would like to ask you something: my beard is pretty good, but I think my moustache isn't thick and has a slow growth compared to the rest of my beard, was yours like that when you were younger? on your early 20's? (my grandpa, my father and my uncle from my mother's side have really thick moustaches...my brother has a thicker moustache but not as thick as the people I previously mentioned...so I don't know, would like to hear your opinion)

[@carloscosta387]

+Daniel do L. Ola, my mustache is not that tick and that why its over grown (like well over the lip) makes it look thicker that actually is. I dont know if you trim yours close to the lip but if so and it's thin I suggest you let it grow don't trim it all all and when it's all nicely grown will look thicker and you can always use mustache wax to style it. hope this helps buddy.

[@Beardbrand]

[@triglyceridet7640]

Papi Hombre, Carlos

[@Lonyw]

I need to know how to get rid of beard curls. the right side of my beard is growing the way I want it to but the left side curls outwards. I've been trimming every now and then and it seems to be getting a little bit better over time but is there a better way to get rid of those annoying curls permanently?

[@Beardbrand]

+Lony aka Looney Hey - I would actually recommend checking out Jeff's One Minute Beard Grooming video. It's really helpful with eliminating the "beard wave" and flyaways and things of that nature. Give it a look and let us know if it helps you out! kzbin.info/www/bejne/gnnaeZyYaLutfaM Beard on! -Zach

[@Lonyw]

Thanks a lot zach. I've been combing more than I used to and it's slowly helping so hopefully it'll show more soon

[@shafserious2805]

Seems like carlos had a good smoke of the reefa before the you tube shoot lol

[@Beardbrand]

It's funny you say that because he's actually 6+ years sober. We did a podcast where we talked about his road to recovery and it's very powerful. I recommend you give it a listen. Always great to see your comments!

[@MarkSimons13]

I was wondering if someone could answer me a question..... My beard doesn't seem to be growing anymore do you need to trim to get some more growth? Thank you

[@Beardbrand]

How long have you been letting it grow so far? -Zach

[@MarkSimons13]

+Beardbrand just over a year... It's about fist length but don't seem to be growing anymore than that.

[@Beardbrand]

Hmm, it's possible that this is your natural terminal length. If you haven't given it a shape up or trim yet, I would definitely recommend it. It will give your beard some new life, it will even it out, and you may find it actually looks a little longer and fuller after a good shape-up! -Zach

[@MarkSimons13]

+Beardbrand Thank you so much for your time and information really appreciate it bud.... 👍

[@himanshuthadeshwar1]

What is that brush called for beard?

[@Beardbrand]

+Himanshu Thadeshwar That is actually one of our 100% boar's hair brushes. You can find it here: www.beardbrand.com/products/boars-hair-brush Beard on! -Zach

how to Straights my Crowley Beard

[@chihhaochen7321]

why don't you use clippers to trim your beard?

[@Beardbrand]

+Felix Chen You certainly can, it's all about personal preference. Like I prefer using trimmers over scissors, but some guys like the opposite. It's really what you feel most comfortable with! -Zach

[@chihhaochen7321]

+Beardbrand good to know, thank you! i was worried it causes split ends because I'm horrible with scissors. Thanks again!

[@lovittblinds]

DON'T SHAVE YOUR BEARD!!! Your beard is bad ass, grow your beard longer!! Beard On Carlos!

[@svengljungqvist3120]

Trimming it short and then growing it out???...just to show the viewers how it can be done??? It would certainly be educational and so on👍but I would never ever demand it, it's your beard and you decide what you're willing to do with it❤️

[@mikksilva]

Tu és Português? // Are you Portuguese?

[@Beardbrand]

He is Portuguese.

[@mikksilva]

+Beardbrand send him our love!!!

[@rohitrodde]

shave it down, and start growing and how to grow it long and maintain thou it would help us a lot @carlos Costa

[@ricardomarques8357]

Portugueses caragooo ahahah

[@kendudman2425]

Starting from scratch would be cool. I started watching this channel because Jeff was doing that and I thought I could grow min out with him but then he fell off the face of the earth and I've been a little lost since. All I hear is "just don't shave" well ok.....but now it looks like shit and I have nothing to model it after during its different stages. Lol

[@Beardbrand]

Did you see Jeff's new video? He's keeping it shorter these days, but it should give you a good amount of inspiration! kzbin.info/www/bejne/np3daXx-fL2IjKs Beard on! -Zach

[@kendudman2425]

Beardbrand Outstanding! I had missed it until today thank you guys! Much appreciated :)

[@zinopeter]

[@talhahmed8]
