I wanted to thank you. So very much. I know you probably won't see this. I grew up without a dad to show my how to tame this wild beast. I assumed I didn't have a beard I could style. I've had a beard since I was 12. I just let it grow. My beard hair grows in 4 different directions depending on where it is at on my face. I've always just took clippers and edged it up. I've worked in construction for most of my life so I didn't really care. When it got long it got cut it. Because it just looked bad. For the first time in my life it looks good long. All I had to use was a razor and some clippers. I gotta use Harry's razors because cheap ones, trimmers, and electric razors just grab and don't cut my coarse hair. I had a flat brush and a comb. (I have been trying to comb and brush my hair into submission for about two years, too embarrassed too actually look up a beard tutorial). I'm so glad I finally did. You really don't know how much I appreciate this. Bless you man. This has been driving me insane. (The story on why I use Harry's is because when I was in school still I went to shave my face and the blades on the razor broke out of the razor and cut my face open.) It really is that thick and coarse. I feel stupid with this comment, so please understand that I appreciate this so much.

Just followed these steps and this is the first time ive ever done this once at medium length rather than cut the whole thing off and start again!

[@peoplez129]

Personally, I think shaving the neck is only if you intend to keep a short beard at around this length. Otherwise, all shaving the neck will do is result in constant maintenance and itching. Those neck stubbles will come in and require almost daily trimming, and are in the worst place to have stubble. If a person is growing a longer beard, you don't need to shave the neck, only shape it, when you're at the length you want. Shaping a neck too early can constrict the beard to a non natural shape and make you think you're trimming excess when you're actually trimming your natural shape. This can make the difference between an OK beard and an epic beard.
