Perfect! You’re welcome!

[@donaldwlong]

You just resolved my mustache frustration. I never thought of using a heated brush just on my mustache based on how I did not like the way the heated brush made the rest of my beard look. I have been using the heated brush just on my mustache for the past week and I no longer need to use a wax and it is styling the way I like it. It's these little things that change the experience on the beard journey that take frustration to enjoyment. Appreciate everything you do and the education & positivity you bring.

Dan remember when i sent my updated pictures? You suggested to start training it to the sides, well my stache doesn't really grow all the way down to my lip and thats why i like to leave it down ! It gives me the fuller illusion look .

Lazy Walrus. I like that! I heard Eric Bandholz said he designed the comb with a small area for mustaches and the rest wider for beards. I didn't know the mustache area was finer than usual. Thanks for the info! I'm on your page with my mustache. Tried for a Walrus with same qualms as you,. Had a lot of transparencies and waves.

Thanks Dan! I have been trying out the heated brush again, vs using a blow dryer. I've been using mostly the heated brush, because the bathroom is attached to the kids room, and the blow dryer wakes them up early. I appreciate this video, and the video where you go over using both tools.

My beard is the natural rainbow of beard colors, front is black, lower sides is brown, top sides is red, and mustache is blond. On a good day, I do a loose low handle bar, so it kind of displays over/into the beard. I think it highlights the different colors I have.

[@peterenright5347]

Was trimming my mustache every other day. To keep it nice and neat. But now I'm just letting it grow. I'm almost at my 6 month beard growth and my stache to me was looking to small compared to my beard. Now I think it's all working together. Nice to the point video Dan C.

[@manbark]

The Lazy Walrus Stache is my style too. As of a few months ago one side started settling differently than the other and below the lower lip a S pattern. The heated brush is preferred method. A slow run through and immediately use a teaser brush works for me. Followed by butter or balm depending on the day.

[@DanCBearded]

It is working really well for you!

Great video. My mustache is something I’m playing with. I think the lazy walrus is a nice look.

[@DanCBearded]

Thank you brotha!

[@BuschLeaGamer]

I wear my mustache pretty much like you describe. The handlebar and full walrus definitely don’t work for me, and I too can’t stand the feel of wax, or even balm in my mustache. The heated brush does seem like it would work, but I prefer a blow dryer to style my beard, and don’t feel like using them both. I just blow dry from the middle of the mustache, towards the side and use a boar bristle brush for a little tension and just kind of brush it down and to the side, blending it into the beard. Quick and easy, good enough for me, without the matted feel of the wax or balm. 👍

[@DanCBearded]

Awesome, thank you for the add on!

[@30DayReviews]

been wondering how a heated brush would work on the stache. great instructions for people that want to rock the lazy walrus.

[@DanCBearded]

Works perfectly for this style! Not sure for other styles though

[@KC_House]

Timely video for me as anything I’ve tried so far with the stache I haven’t been pleased with. When I’ve used wax I just didn’t like the feel of it. I may recently have drifted into something similar to the lazy walrus but you’ve actually given me a little more direction than I’ve had with it. Appreciate you Dan.

Fantastic video Dan. I too have been using the aberlite pro for my mustache recently. My mustache isn’t nearly as thick and full as yours though.

[@DanCBearded]

The pro has become a daily tool for me. Such a nice one!

[@JimboSRP]

I didn't know it until now, but I do a lazy walrus too - minus any lip trimming. Mind you, I'm only 4-5 months in on the full beard so that (the trimming) may change. Every morning I blow dry each side of the moustache up and out (working from the middle) with my comb, and that's it. I've had a moustache for years and years (probably close to 25 years) but up until now it was just with a goatee - I have learned over that time that as long as my wife can see some of my top lip I can get away with not trimming it - so this style is great because you can still see the central part of the top lip.

[@DanCBearded]

Sounds like a great compromise!

[@pm2055]

Love this video. I have a love hate relationship with my mustache. I like the look of a full mustache but I struggle when it gets too long so I kind of have an in the middle kind.

[@DanCBearded]

Sameee here! such a love hate. I love it, Sam hates it lol

[@TKizzy12]

I have a similar mustache , i guess it could be handlebarred up with wax if I wanted, it is separated from the beard but I just comb it down over the lip and push the “bars” over to the sides with my fingers in the corners of my mouth. And that’s it

[@DanCBearded]

Sounds awesome!

[@LaneRoadevilPhilan]

My girl likes my lips, not hair, but she absolutely loves the fact that I'm growing out my beard. I'm only 43, but because I smoke, and stress (don't ask), my beard is almost all gray. Started my beard journey a out Nov. of 2020, so about 7 months.

[@joshkolthammer9646]

Awesome video Dan!! I sort of do the same thing. My moustache isn’t as strong and huge as yours and some other guys. But right now I sort of dot the exact same thing as you. I comb it to the sides like you and blend it in with my beard. I’m not the biggest fan of handlebar on myself as my moustache to me is not the best for it. But we will see where it grows and if I can get it to thicken up and come in more over time. Awesome video again man. Thank you.

[@DanCBearded]

Thanks Josh!!

[@tedwilliams162]

You recommended today in beard advice live that I should check out this. I'm still not sure if I should just let it blend in or trim it at for example the edge of the mouth.

[@DanCBearded]

This styling first. If it looks good, don’t trim. If it bothers you, trim.

[@DWMMD]

I do have a question. When combining the sides of the mustache to flow into the beard, should it look like the mustaches do beard are one, or should the mustache join but still appear as a distinct mustache with visible ends?

[@DanCBearded]

I like to have a combo of both. You can clearly tell the mustache is flowing in to the beard, but I like the ends to blend in with the beard

[@jryanr2010]

As with most things grooming or beard related, I'd say it's all about preference and what you think looks best on your face.

[@theartistformerlyknownasbr4849]

I do the tongue thing too.. Lol I also find that as I smooth out the hairs, I find my self going "Whaaaa, Whaaa" It's like I can't make the smoothing motion with out the noise, like Dan's trimmer buzzzer noise... lol I've only tried a medium hold wax, and was having okay success with them, but wearing the mask the hot humid breath the wax won't hold. I have been using a product some use for the competitions Got 2 b glued, not the spray, but the tube. It holds the hair out of my mouth and either holds up to the mask, or if it softens, I can reshape once the mask is off by wetting it again. Once the mask isn't an all day affair, I look forward to trying a stronger wax, hopefully by then the 'stache will be of epic proportions... lol

[@DanCBearded]

Great add ons, thank you Brian!

[@funkdaddy3.0]

I use to try and style a handlebar but with the advent of masks in public, the masks push the stache into a walrus. So after a couple of months, I gave up. I haven't trimmed my stache (except for a couple of over achievers, once.) in two years and currently am between a walrus and a "lazy walrus". Lazy at the beginning of the day, to walrus at the end. Perhaps it's a hold over but I use a medium hold wax, blow dyer and stache comb to style.
