Is This The Next Big Facial Hair Style? | Eric Bandholz

[@chas7193]

I grew my mustache in 1976 and have never shaved it off, I did trim it but it has never left my face.

[@AbbsJr]

It can only rot off it seems

[@frankieshankypanky]

My husband is rocking the mustache and I love it so much. I’ve gotten some great tips from Beardbrand videos. I trim and style it for him and I love doing it.

[@jayscraggs1012]

I've been cutting my own hair an beard for years , trying to teach my wife to help me out some Not going so well😳

So true...doing the things we dont have the nerve to.....

[@devilman2465]

The mustache was really only big in the 70's, as in the "70's porn stache", though it was still around in the the 80's, as in "80's cop stache", but the 90's were pretty much stache-less.

[@DanCBearded]

My mustache is my proudest part of my beard! Ron Swanson #goals. My first time seeing those pictures of Greg and his stache, that is awesome!

[@briano.5746]

I think Greg is an alien LOL! 👽🛸

[@manuelfirpo]

3:17 I believe I mentioned this a long time ago, but if you had trimmed the stache just a little bit (just a little bit) That style would have been among of your greatest indeed.

[@TheLoneDragoon]

Been rocking a big mustache for a year. I was going to do the 90 day challenge. Well, 90 days came and went and I did not like what I saw. Except, for the mustache. So, I kept it. For about the past two and a half months I have been rocking the beardstache. Coincidentally, I actually got the inspiration from Carlos and you, Eric... And I lOVE Four Vices mustache wax. Wish you made a cologne in that scent.

[@EricBandholz]

Just wait. Got things in the works. 🤐

[@TheLoneDragoon]

@@EricBandholz Awesome. Thanks for the reply😎

Your beardstach was glorious I loved it you looked great!

[@michaelleb1874]

Hey Eric I went threw a lot of different facial hair transformations, and I finally decided to settle on the stach. I love it , and more importantly my girlfriend loves it.

[@thewolfateandthegoatremain2454]

Same here mate, except the girlfriend lol

[@michaelleb1874]

Thank you mate

[@dlprofitt]

Rockin that beard stache, Yo! I’ve had a scruffy beard for a long time now. I decided to participate in Movember and I’ve been growing the stache ever since. I have a slightly rounder oval face, so I’ve found that the beard stache is a better look for me. Gives more definition to my face. Planning to grow my first full beard this year.

[@thedarthflagger]

I didn't know the owner of beardbrand was Fozzy Bear.

[@StrappingYoungLadam]

I would love to be able to rock a beardstache when I'm older. At 26 I'm just now able to have an acceptable short beard so maybe someday.

[@georgemitchell1488]

The mustache looks nice on you. You look nice.

[@ReyahsCommet]

Mustaches are coming back! The reason I like them is because of the show Narcos. They have some amazing mustaches that are inspiring lol. I can grow a beard, but sadly my mustache is too thin.

[@treycrumrine1482]

Rockin a handlebar on top of my “power beard” as of now, I’m gonna commit to the stache in the summer🤙

[@AlphasPath]

I recently went from a full beard to a beardstache. It ain't a bad look. It has the machismo of facial hair yet makes you look like you step outside your cave every once in a while. At the same time it is extremely unique. Most guys have stubble or a short beard these days. You can't really stand out the way you could a decade or so ago. With a mustache or beardstache though you're going to be turning heads.

[@KrisVic91]

What is a power-beard?

[@thedeadlygames9716]

@Bald DeGea it is essentially a a 6 month beard

[@teakey]

2:00 very Daniel Day Lewis there. 〰️👌🏼

[@SelfSealingStemBolt]

Totally! Watched Gangs of New York (currently on NF) a few weeks back. Loved DDL’s stash and hair in that movie. GB def has similar vibe in those pics.

[@alexanderc7213]

I think if guys rock the Chevron, it's not so much by choice, as by genetic limitation imo. Not everyone can rock a huge stache like you Eric, although that's my goal now. Since they say it takes 6 months to grow, I'll wait until June. Also, if you have a double chin, mustache is not a great look IMO. It's why I have a beard 😂...I do think the trend will move away from 'hipster beards' to more shorter styles though. We will see what the new decade has in store. Happy 2020 all.

[@elmagnificodep]

Alexander C I like the Chevron. The problem is it has this relationship with being a “porn stache”. I have to have a van dyke for this reason. The wife doesn’t want an 80s pornstar. LOL

[@alexanderc7213]

@@elmagnificodep LOL. I guess we can't win. Mustaches, beards, longhair...there are always negative stereotypes associated 🤷‍♂️

[@jensrb50]

I looked like Ron Swanson when I had a mustache...so I have that going for me...which is nice.

[@lifehelpexpress9504]

Some facial hair, regardless of the style, brings out your cheekbones more and most guys in general look better with some facial hair because it brings out their cheekbones.

[@aryansharma9644]

Open your company in India I will love it

[@sergeantshelby6142]

My dad passed away 2 years ago and he always wore a moustache. I've been sporting one since with and without beard.

[@thecowboy9698]

I use to have a mustache when I was in my late teens and early twenties, before going to a full beard. And I have to say I got some very nice compliments.

[@25inspector]

I had a stache back in 1988 when I was married...it looked funny.

[@CoolHandLukeDuke]

There are very few guys who can truly pull off a solo mustache or even a stache with stubble. Mustaches definitely don't work for weak chins and turkey necks.

[@manuelfirpo]

It is funny. I was thinking of shaving my beard and just sporting a mustache after my wedding has passed.

[@jensrb50]

I wear a hybrid hybrid beard .A goatestache .Short on the chin and a retro looking mustache .I have blonde facial hair and I can't even grow a patchy beard(cheek area) but I liked the beardstache so I made my "own" version of it .I am 20 btw so only time will tell

[@zer0theher030]

Haha, I guess great minds think alike. That was my style for quite awhile (3mm on the chin and longer chevron-like moustache connected to the chin hair). Although I wear a stubble at most times - I like to go back to the goateestache from time to time.

[@dankey6761]

I used to sport a beard since the mid 2010’s, but in November I figured I’d give the mustache a shot because I was starting to get tired and bored with the full beard.. 2 month later, I’m rocking a Chevron(Tom Selleck/Burt Reynolds style) and I love it! Have gotten many compliments from both men and women. So I definitely think the stache is coming back in the 2020’s! And I agree with you, I love the beard but sometimes you got to spice it up and try a new look. Keep on rocking the stache!

[@jayscraggs1012]

I'm sorry but mid 2010s ? Why not just say a few years ago 😂

[@briano.5746]

One of the most iconic mustaches I can think of is the one and only Frank Zappa! PEACE 💀👽🎸🎶🎵🧔

[@gaminglegend]

Wow Eric's mustache grows so fast! At this rate, it'll be back by February or March!

[@talega1]

your mustache grows fast. I usually grow it w goatee for 2 -3 weeks then grow full beard....(except this last time). And I know, you want to look like John HOLMES....

[@loganmiddleton5959]

Been a moustache guy for a few years now, and recently got my first "baby mullet". I was apprehensive about it at first because of all the negative connotations around the word "mullet" but oh man, I'm loving it.

[@robertpoole5652]

I hate mustaches. I like it with my beard only

[@mauwganwoods3341]

About 3 months ago i decided to go on the Bearded/Mustache journey because i caught a glimpse of a few videos by BeardBrand and the big Berzinsky, and well I was inspired. And ill tell ya i didn't think i could do it. But you guys really proved that wrong. I had thin cheeks, And really every excuse under the sun not to grow, But ive been pushing through it with the mustache and beard now thanks to you guys and the right products to keep up the confidence during every phase of beard and mustache growth.

[@rawdror4701]

I love my handlebar mustache been rocking it for about 3 yrs now and get massive compliments almost everydayabout it from men and women.check mine out on my IG @PEEPTHESTACHEBITCH

[@sirstashalot7441]

Grew my handlebar in 2013, it has been there since. But now i also have a 8 month beard. I will eventually change my style to a long fu manchu/horseshoe (similar to Sean Raiger). I like the beard but im definitely a stache guy... waiting for the cold to clear out lol

[@WallsClips]

Can't believe you didn't go for the full stubble look, I think it would've suited you very well. But you do you, Eric! Merry late Christmas

[@douchebag2019]

Nahhhhhh

[@shaunmoss1915]

Definitely been concentrating on my mustache since starting in November. This is my fourth time growing it, so I'm starting to know what I need to do: First, it's important to know YOUR mustache possibilities and find an example, or several, of what YOUR mustache could be (plenty of old boxing and military photos from the early 20th century for me). I trim individual hairs that do not seem to be growing in the direction of the mustache about every 3-4 weeks, just a very small trim to cut out the curl (we're talking centimeters). My beard comes in wiry and shaping is just difficult without some trimming. Blow dryer on low heat, good wax (Layrite cement or heavier wax at first), brushing (or combing) in the from under the nose in direction I want it to grow out of the way of the mouth, and cool air to finish. BE PATIENT, IT WILL TAKE 9-11 MONTHS FOR THE PHILTRUM HAIRS TO REACH THE CORNERS OF THE MOUTH, THAT'S WHEN IT STABILIZES. Once a week I put coconut oil in my beard, mustache, and hair overnight. Once a week I wash with Grandpa's Pine Tar Soap, spray with 10/90 apple cider vinegar, and put in leave in conditioner. Once a week I try to leave it alone and not put any wax in it. This is not as complicated or expensive as it sounds, a small routine that saves hours of pain in misery of shaping and keeping a larger mustache. Of course daily use of oil or balm, but just a dot, lots of guys are going crazy with the oil. Start eating with a knife and fork, buy cups with small drink holes. This helps during the inbetween phase when the mustache can get into the mouth, and it can help lose weight. Hope this helps some of you, good luck!

[@jayscraggs1012]

Goddamn lol

[@steadfastwog3746]

I get that it helps the brand to say there was a drop-off and then a resurgence in beard/moustache popularity around the time you started making KZbin videos but this is anecdotal at best. Do better Eric

[@BeardbrandAlliance]

If you wanna see the popularity of beards/mustaches over time see this: trends.google.com/trends/explore?date=all&geo=US&q=Beards%20%2B%20beard,Moustache%20%2B%20mustache This aligns with what I was saying of seeing a popularity of hipster mustaches around 2012 and it falling down afterwards. I believe that we’ll see a resurgence in mustaches like we’ve seen a resurgence in mullets. -Eric

I have. I've placed a couple of times as well. Generally I tend to judge them though.

how about a yearstache? 2020 is coming up in a day so you would have a perfect countdown from there. shave it off for a final time and see how long it will be in a year, no trim, no shave. would be really cool to see.

[@NR-ir1mv]

I agree with your view on the Pedophile mustache joke people make, I had a killer mustache and I let jokes like that make me feel insecure while rocking a look that I chose for myself. Next time I have a mustache I will not let that joke slide!

[@kahn04]

Probably the wrong video for this question, but here it goes, Is there such thing as a good looking beard without the moustache? I’ve been growing my facial hair out since Christmas and can’t stand the look of my moustache, the main reason being the scar under my nose leaves a big ol’ gap that ruins the polished look I’m going for.

[@SJdanglerED]

Just shaved the handlebars off ...7yrs strong..it's on passport pic and all..now it's time for regrowth and training. Sometimes more aggravation than what it's worth, but if you want it...wax your whiskers!

Mustaches are coming back in a big way, from my understanding the bigger and bushier the better, 5 guys that i work with are currently having a mustache growing contest for 1 year ! they are calling it a stash yeard 👍 my self, i like my full beard and mustache.... Edited because of typo.

[@SelfSealingStemBolt]

Personally, I think a stash all by itself is hard for most guys to pull off. For me, the power beard helps to support my stash. My stash is definitely the best part of my beard. My beard has more imperfections when compared to my stash. Anyway, another great vid. 👍
