How to Trim a Neck Line for Your Beard | YEARD WEEK 4

[@MrLocalthug]

This man has grown more in a month than I’ve grown in 5 years

[@Beardbrand]

We all grow at different speeds and densities, no worries! - Jack

[@PinkFloydTheDarkSide]

See his hands. That gives you a good hint of his hair growing capacity.

[@ricbradley5323]

That's because he doesn't trim for a month at a time. The best growth comes from 6 to 8 weeks of painful waiting. You can do it man.

[@dacollector9392]

Thank god for this bc I look like a caveman at week 4

Hey Jack, loving these videos! I'm 26 years old growing my first beard ever, i've been clean shaven for practically my whole life. I'm almost 2.5 weeks in and have gotten nothing but compliments even throughout the awkward stage. I'm excited for it to get even fuller with time and ill be watching your videos as your a couple weeks ahead of me for some good upkeep tips. Namaste Jack

[@Haulinoat]

The dips in his beard going to his mustache are awesome. It's a cool look that not many have

I like seeing these weekly updates. Although we differ a little bit on approach as I am in the team of not shaving neck as quickly, it just goes to show that there are a Multitude of different approaches. Keep on growing!

[@Beardbrand]

We definitely wanted to try something a little different with this series. It’s really nice to see all the positive feedback we’ve gotten from it. I chose to trim up the neckline after 30 days because I knew my beard was just going to get less shapely and more unruly. Plus, I wanted to show the viewers how to define their lines relatively early in the series. Glad you enjoyed it! - Jack

[@AsadAli-jc5tg]

Greg, He's right. He's got a full beard and grows it pretty fast. Maybe you're saying coz you've a light and patchy beard.

[@4nd3rzzon]

@@AsadAli-jc5tg every beard is unique, you gotta work with what you have

[@hogleg8103]

Greg Berzinsky how do you deal with ingrown hairs?? They fuck my neck up when I start trying to let it grow?

[@MeZzZzZzZzZzZzZzZzZ]

Yeah Greg easy for you to say your neckline is way higher than most. If I waited any longer there'd be an animal sleeping in my neck hair.

[@user-zl5th3iw5b]

1 month??? I quit haha

[@meehrlean]

your genetics for facial hair is perfect, in my opinion. Your cheeck hair grows so fucking high, and all the way down to the neck so that you could practically rock any style beard that ever existed

[@Effsee35]

5:08 legit thought you were going to cut a chunk out by mistake when you looked down lol

You are solid in front of a camera. Very little editing, which means you're very confident in front of a camera. Most pro dude on this channel, and everyone's great on this channel.

[@isaacgomez5730]

The two finger method is most helpful thing I've found when it comes to the neckline. Awesome, thanks!

[@abaddon8418]

You're a cool cat jack. Your beard grows quick. Thanks for the vid. 😉 Appreciate you taking time to respond to the comments. I am so glad Eric opened this buisness. So many guys want to grow beards but either go about it the wrong way or give up too soon. This channel has helped me to grow an awesome beard the right way with confidence. Its been 20 yrs since i have had a beard and it feels great to have one again!!

[@tupac4life1984]

Awesome Comment, my bearded brother.

[@Beardbrand]

Thanks man, I really appreciate the support! Your story reminds me a lot of myself. I was actually a fan of the channel for a very long time before I joined on. - Jack

[@WhiskeyTango76s]

Anyone else feel like that first month of growing out your beard is the hardest? It took me years to finally just say fuck it and let it grow past a month, after about 5 weeks it looks so much better.

[@stevekizewic9626]

Looks great at a month Jack. You sure can grow quickly. Takes me nearly 2 months to get to where you are at now. I️ like that dip in the cheekline. Makes it look original! This is going to be great to watch the series. I’m more interested once you get about 6 months in to see how you deal with keeping it tidy as it gets longer!

[@Beardbrand]

Thanks Steve! We all grow at different speeds so don't worry too much about what 2 months looks like versus one month. I'm really interested to see what my beard looks like at 6 months too, it's gonna get BIG! - Jack

[@dwberg09]

I love the weekly progress and how to maintain from day one. Will be interested in to see how to shape in the next month or two

[@Beardbrand]

Glad to hear you dig the series, man! The next few months are going to be where things get pretty thick (at least they typically do from past experience) - Jack

[@dwberg09]

Yes sir! I’m at week 6 of the journey. I always end at week 8. Because I don’t know how to make everything look cleaned up while continue to grow so then I end up hacking it off. Will definitely continue to look at your videos for advice. Thanks!

[@mizzoupatriot8814]

The hair on one side of my cheek and jaw grows upward while the other side grows downward but have been using beard oil and the hair on that side has already started to soften and grow downward like the other side. Never used beard oil in the past but lemme tell you it definitely works wonders it has actually given me piece of mind knowing the hair has already started training to grow the correct direction. Maybe I can resist shaving it off now. Beard oil beard oil beard oil...What it's all about.

What's really awesome is when you're 43, and the dark brown/black holdouts, weird reddish holdouts, and the new white hairs are all sort of conjoining into a gigantic freakshow of of a beard. Love those white ones that stick straight up!

[@crowmigration8245]

Looks much better, this inspired me to just trim instead of taking it all off. I have a normal 5 blade razor and it's taken off back of the neck hair longer than this just fine, it just takes two passes. I will do that now as well.

[@BillyWidener]

Great video Jack. Hope all the "newcomers" will able to follow along on their new beard growing journey along with you. Imagine a world without KZbin back in my day when trying to develop a magnificent beard as I have now. Also bad barbers back then with bad trimmings. Most of all bad beard trimmers! I still kept my first one. Lol. Nowadays some excellent barbers actually know what they're doing (well not all of them :)

[@Beardbrand]

For sure! I certainly wouldn't know as many beard tips as I do now if it weren't for KZbin. Actually without Beardbrand, I'd still be pretty lost with what to do with my beard. I've been a big fan of the channel before I joined the team. - Jack

[@BillyWidener]

Right. I do give thanks to Beardbrand since I joined in when they first came out as well.

[@AustinIsTheGreatest]

Thanks for the 2 finger trick, it's gonna help me a ton!

[@Metal94head]

Nice one. I find this is the most critical point in growing a beard for the first time because fucking up at this stage can make a huge impact and be very discouraging. What i would have done in addition to what you did is blending the hair and the beard in the sideburns area, which is very simple to do with a multigroom like that (i had that exact same model as my first multigroom) plus its accessories. Also, looking forward to see how the moustache comes in.

[@Beardbrand]

Definitely, getting that first trim is a great boost for your overall morale during the beginning stages of growing a beard. When it comes to blending, I typically leave that to a barber/stylist because I trust that they will give me a much better blend than I could put in myself. - Jack

[@Exekutioncro]

Damn I made that shving neck up too high mistake. Im currently 2 weeks in, I have similar growth like you. Now I have to grow that neck hair again to rescue the line

[@aarons.8129]

Very nice Jack! We have very similar beards, strong cheek coverage with a "dip" right outside the mustache and a lighter mustache growth. I always find the cheek line the hardest because I swear it grows up to my eye haha. I always screw up the trim at the one month mark for that reason. I've never thought to leave the cheek line higher up like you did! Next time I'm feeling like attempting a beard I'm going to give that a try. Cheers

[@bayrealexperts3914]

[@jakeboss6342]

haha, I tried to trim in those dips on both sides of my beard years ago, using the nose trimmer attachment on those very cheap trimmers, it was only the width of 2 trimmer blades, it didn't workout to well, because hair wasn't growing high enough on my cheeks to have definition? (is that the right word) haha, but it didn't look right, but, as for what it was, it did work pretty good, so for someone that does have hair growing high on their cheek, and wanted to create those dips, using a nose trimmer attachment works really well

[@stablebeing]

I'm following this pattern. Waiting for the next week.

[@UndeadSoldierX5]

So I'd really appreciate an answer for this. I found this playlist at my week 4 mark and I have been trying to find this answer from beard brand but haven't. I know to exfoliate my entire face including my beard, but do I use face wash on my entire face too? I have naturally oily skin so use my face wash twice per day so I've been washing the beard area with it one of the times per day. I have gotten a couple pimples in the hair which is frustrating because I don't break out often. I just don't know if I need to wash it with face wash both times per day or never or what. Help is appreciated! Thank you for the videos. I committed to 3 months to see how I like it

Been watching your weekly videos from the first one and this series makes me want to grow out my beard again. Longest I have kept growing was 5 months, and it didn't look that bad. The issue was I didn't take good care of it because I had no experience at all. So looking forward to your next videos about maintaining the beard and learning from you.

Really enjoying your videos jack! It's great to see the progression of your beard from week to week, and the insight your giving is very informative. Looking forward to week 5 man!

[@dominictierney]

Really helpful 👍🏽 I went to high on the neckline on recent shave. Made stupid mistake of trying to fix it. Now thinking of shaving the lot off and starting again. Ugh. It’s not right up to the jawline. Probably one finger depth down onto neck/side. Doesn’t look awful. But not what I want/had.

[@Fedaalis]

Based on the comments already it looks like I don't need to mention that this dude is clearly a freak of nature (in the most complementary way possible) when it comes to growing facial hair. Dudes trying to grow a beard: unless you're genetically very gifted, you're not going to look like this guy does so early on. Give yourself 13 weeks of untrimmed growth to get a real look at how capable of growing a beard you are.

[@TonyTK1]

Is shaving the neckline at 30 days recommended or earlier? When do most trim the neckline? I've had a few no-shave stints of 6 weeks and each time I was ready to shave because my neck looked messy and the itch was bothering me some (I didn't use beard oils or anything).

[@Beardbrand]

My personal recommendation (and how I was taught) is 30 days. That way you can truly see how much and where the hair will grow. BUT, if you already know where your strengths and weaknesses, you can actually shave in the neckline a little earlier. - Jack

[@TonyTK1]

Beardbrand Thanks! I have another related question. I shave my head about once or twice a week with barber clippers. I shave my sideburns if it was from my scalp growth, but try to avoid beard sideburns. Seems to be a gray area. My beard sideburns only go to the very bottom of my ear lobe. Should they be higher?

[@TonyTK1]

Is there a good rule of thumb?

[@Draxis32]

I'm loving this new series! Damn I wish I had you Jack to follow me with some tips when I started growing a beard back in 2013. I did so many of the rookie mistakes, oooh boy. The Facebeard hahaha
