I have shaved my mustache, they r very straight and very hard to turn. Can I make they thick as I had in my beginning.

[@piuloillustration5837]

I have a powerful (dense) and bold one, with the tips pointing outwards like an arrow. No need for handlebar; although I could do it with wax. I prefer a natural flowing of the hair. Kent combing and hands. I love it, its gonna stay forever. Long live the moustache!

[@DanCBearded]

I love the outward tips on a mustache, it is actually my favorite style!

[@fergotti]

Start training early. Do not trim strays on your mo while it's short. They will just grow back and bother u even more. Resist the urge and in 2wks it wont bother you anymore. For me the longer the stache the better. I kept trimming mine and it never worked. Soon as I stopped, viola! It worked

[@DanCBearded]

I agree, time can heal all!

[@kruppert54]

Thanks for the tip. My mustache is coming along nicely but there is the temptation to cut those wild ones that grow the opposite direction. Matt and Dan, you have great beards and experiences to share, thanks!

[@Soulseeologia]

Unfortunately I saw a video saying trim the middle so I did now it’s hard to stop trimming

[@selfactualizer2099]

There's nothing wrong with trimming stragglers If I'm going out I just cut the ones that don't form its not a problem and I usually just cut them just behind the part of the curve I don't like, they retrain I am meticulous about my hair lengths, other guys don't care as much If you want that super clean look, it's a lot of work

[@steelbeard151]

Great video. To answer your question, I agree with you. A big full beard needs a mustache. I let mine grow as big as possible. Sometimes I wear it brushed into my beard, but often I handlebar the ends just slightly and then wax it up so it will not go all over the place. It completely covers my mouth, but I found its just a matter of getting used to eating with it. When waxed it hold together and I can get food in with no problem. I like the look and its nice and thick. I won't ever shave it.

[@DanCBearded]

amen brotha!

[@nevermind47713]

i've kept a stache since graduating high school, I'll be 58 this month, mostly keeping it trimmed close. Just in the past few weeks since Ii started using Bossman's Mudstache wax, I've decided to let it grow, I can now keep the stache out of my mouth. Can't wait until I can get it to a length that I can give it a proper curl. The guys at work are definitely envious, but hey I'm from Hicksville, it's only expected. I enjoy watching your videos and pick up a lot of info from the Trusted Teacher, with tips and tricks for the beard and stache. That dropbeat was a definite plus during your tutorial, Veteran was a good choice. I have a boars hair brush, but really like the Beard Octane one better. Will have to put it on my wishlist and get one soon. CHEERS!

My mustache is trimmed and short only because it bugs me when the bottom of it starts to bother my lip. I really appreciated this video training. I’m going to try and grow my mustache out and train it with your method. I have been tossing around the idea of using mustache wax, but I’m going to try your method first. Thank you, Trusted Teacher!!!

[@graciegjj]

Those coarse hairs really can rough up the lips for sure. Beard oils and such help but still.

[@jryanr2010]

Oh how I envy people who can comb or brush their hair in a certain direction and it cooperates. My hairs will immediately pop back to their desired position. Whether it's hair on my head or hair on my big toe, my hairs will always go whichever direction they want to go and I don't believe even super glue would be a strong enough hold to change that! 😂

[@mr.beardsly784]

Good tips, Dan. I hate my mustache on most days because I can never get it to lay down and look right. I have tried using wax, but typically I just throw in some oil and balm and that works for the rest of my beard. I'm going to give your way a shot and see how that plays out for me.

Larger mustache, rarely trim, prefer to groom it away from lip v.s. trimming. I have been definitely getting into a better routine since watching your videos, using more oil, no balm, oil & butter in evening, blow drying. I want to rock the beard but I’d like to spend minimal effort on maintenance. I live in south LA and work outdoors quite a bit, and even if I’ve completely groomed & styled, it seems 5 minutes in the environment, it goes back to a semi frizz. I have noticed the oil helps, will be purchasing a reputable butter after watching the Beard Guyz review. It has been since filed away in the circular file along with their balm I had also purchased. Thanks again Dan C for all the inspiration!

Thanks for the video.. I do not have a mustache.. I always trim it short with the clippers.. There’s nothing more annoying than having a wet mustache when drinking liquids or eating food..

You know what, I’ll start now.. I’m going to let my mustache grow.. Thanks..

Always had a short trimmed mustache. Until now I am growing a big mustache now. This has proven to be extremely challenging trying to train the beast. I believe I'm letting the ends grow to long. It is not separating from the beard. Your tips and tricks are helpful thanks for the videos Dan👍

I’m letting my mustache grow - just using a pair of scissors to make a little split above the my upper lip - and have come the point where I have handlebars and don’t know whether I want the curl or if I just want the ends to be at the same level as the top of my beard. I don’t have mustache wax, so the curl definitely isn’t happening now, but I do enjoy having the end of my mustache lay over the top of my beard line. Thanks for the videos! They’ve been a great help!

Man my mustache drives me NUTS!

You'd think a man who's been bearded for nearly 20 years would know what he's doing by now lol

@@DanCBearded dude the stache seriously. The gym is easy because I'm in control of everything that happens.

One day it'll cooperate and another it's mayhem lol

[@unicyclerider]

I love the look of the bigger, more significant mustache especially since I’ve grown my beard out longer. I struggle with mine creeping down over my lips throughout the day. Is there ever a need to do any trimming in the middle of it or is it best to simply be patient and grow all the hairs out to a length where they can be styled away from my mouth?

I do not ever really trim the middle. I just part it and trim the length, which by that point is out of the middle

I used to trim it to the lips, but have been growing mine out since August, I was curious how it would grow. And have to say, the longer it gets the less problems I have with eating, drinking or chewing on it.

My mustache is kinda thin. Kinda pulled the short end of the stick in the gene pool for this one 😂. But at any rate, the corners of my ‘stache keep curling into my mouth making it a pain to eat. I was wondering if you or anyone had some tips for a thinner ‘stache. I use wax occasionally, but it gets kind of gross when I eat or drink and I taste the wax. Half wondering if I should shave it off but I agree w/ you 100% that the ‘stache really brings the beard look together. Any tips to keep it from curling?

I can usually get away with balm and pulling it to the sides but I do gotta keep the middle "V" trimmed so im not sharing with everthing I eat/drink but I have started to adapt to using bottles and straws so only time will tell whats in store for the mustache!

Thanks very much. I have a pretty big mustache and recently worn it longer down toward my chin. I don’t have a beard. My problem is this. One side of my face my mustache and sideburns grow perfectly and straight down so no trouble whatsoever. I have very wavy hair. My other side grows completely different and I’m frustrated by it. About 1/2-3/4” inches of the bad side the hair grows sideways but hard to explain. The hairs start messing up too high up to cut that part off. If I did cut that part off my mustache would not look very good on me. The much shorter length would look bad on my face. My friends all love it and I have enjoyed the extra length this year. I recently cut off about 1/2-3/4” inches of it since I have grown it out but that hasn’t changed my problems I’m having with it. It is like the part of the mustache is from a different person lower down and it is so much of my mustache I can`t do anything with it. I`ve tried some beard wax. Nothing helps. That part of it grows completely different than any facial hair that I have had. I have had this mustache for probably 40 years plus. Do you have any suggestions what to do with my out of control part of my mustache?

[@DanCBearded]

Nice man!

[@user-ob6th6yp8s]

I love your videos Dan, and you give very good advice, but this works for a "young" handlebar mustache, then a time passes that yes or if you are going to use wax, if you want to at least eat, drink and have sex with your woman, it's essential... After that... sometimes it can exceed a year, you won't need wax or anything... it will hold up well just with oil and a dryer. A piece of advice guys, use seawater, which is worth two dollars and prior to wax (or depending on how, without wax) it holds up very well and gives the mustache a very cool volume.

[@DanCBearded]

That’s the concept of this video. It’s about the training phase. Not the full handlebar phase

[@cubiczirconiabeard5366]

I cut the bottom of the mustache, about 3/16's from the lip. That way the long top hairs lay down and go out. And hit it with bees wax emulsified in coconut oil and low heat.

One of these days I want to try to just let the mustache go combing it out to the side and such... But I'm afraid it won't stay that way it seems to naturally grow down correct well I guess that's what wax is for but like you I'm not particularly fond of the firm hold. So for now and I also like the look I just trim it above my top lip sometimes I let it go over the top lip a little bit.

[@DanCBearded]

[@tomhagzan5773]

My stache just doesn't grow as fast as my beard does. I've always combed it straight down as you do in step one but then I would take my trimmer and take all of the hair off of my lip. I stopped trimming it now though and will see how it goes. Since I've always trimmed the stache, I lost the length and weight I could have had now, which is probably why I feel my stache doesnt grow as fast as my beard does.

I have followed your advice on getting my beard where I want it and I have been successful, thanks to your advice. My mustache has always been the issue for me. It would be wirey at the ends and hard to control. It just didn't look right as a handlebar or a schnauzer. I have managed to grow it long enough at the ends now where it blends with the beard. Not optimal, but acceptable. I think you have more FPF (follicles per face) and that allows you central of maintenance now, due to the fullness. I also notice that you seem to only groom the top layers. Similar to your beard, you dont dig the brush in. This is probably another factor why yours comes out so well. I am finding it hard to get the courage to cut it shorter and try your process, but success will come with trial and error. Sorry for the long post, but as I said earlier, this was important to me. Thank you for making this video, it is really appreciated. ✌

I love that post, thank you! Great point about grooming the outside layer. That is key to my style. Health under, style over!

I have a basic stache -- my beard didn't look right without one. I've used Clubman Pinaud beard balm in place of a mustache wax. Terrible for beards IMO, but it has perfect hold for the upper lip! I got it for about $3 at my CVS.

[@DanCBearded]

Sounds great!

Just want to suggest... FreshBeard’s 1920 is a perfect pairing for clubman products. They nailed the “Barbershop” scent.

Great video ! More then the beard(about 8 months in)the mustache is really taking a lot of patience ! I’m presently trimming my stache, I’d really could use some advice on growing a longer, more full mustache. Thanks...

[@DanCBearded]

Thanks brotha!

[@funkdaddy3.0]

That's pretty much what I fell into as a matter of course. Beardbrand has a travel boar bristle brush that is very maneuverable and perfect for me, I like a handle to give me the illusion of control. I do have a preponderance of gray hairs in both beard and stash. Man, it is like babysitting two year olds or herding cats. As a result, sometimes wax is the only way to tame the errant gray hairs. Thanks for the video, now I feel like I'm on the right track.

Awesome buddy!

Now with the face covering mandates it's pretty hard to keep my mustache groomed

[@jayo5376]

I love the video and ur point of view n video good information. I trim mine to the shape of the outline but I am letting the side rock out too see if it covers the little patches on the side I only connect one side the other one is growing in a little slow but positions I have....

[@DanCBearded]

Let it grow brotha!

[@jhnndrs8832]

Your beard is on point!

[@DanCBearded]

Thank you!

[@lisagreer2006]

Great video dan. I like my mustache longer but I try to trim it right on the lip because I hate moving it while I eat all the time. I dont want to use wax because mostly it doesn't smell like what i have in beard but also it just doesn't feel good or right. Looking forward for your next video buddy. Thanks

[@DanCBearded]

I hear ya brotha!

[@beardedben2988]

Dan the man!! Great tips my brother!! Stash Is looking great!! I'm growing my stash out. Big beard big stash. I think the stash makes the beard like you said. I went short for awhile but the stash is the cherry. Beard on my friend.

[@DanCBearded]

Thank you! Let it grow for sure 👊

[@beardedben2988]

@@DanCBearded wish I could post pics on here. Lol i have my pics of my stash goals in my phone. So when i get that urge to trim it i just look at the pics to remind myself of the goal.

[@AubreywanPicobi]

I've always trimmed mine to keep it out of my mouth. BUT NOW, I'm going for the BIG FULL one.

[@DanCBearded]

Yesss! Embrace it!

[@diddybob69]

Gotta rock the mustache it goes good with the beard only thing I do differently is I blow dry up and to the side helps keep it out of my mouth and trains it well for me I rarely use wax unless I'm going out great video brother 💪👊👊

[@DanCBearded]

That is great brotha! Sounds like a great method!

[@begrateful8934]

Yup def rock the stash brother. After warching your video I actually use a similar technique as you do and it def does the job.

[@DanCBearded]

That is super cool to hear!

[@scottmichaud4002]

I wouldn't say my mustache is the shortest, maybe between short and medium ish lol. I've thought about growing the mustache out a little more but haven't really let it go extended amounts of time with out giving it a little trim.

[@DanCBearded]

Growwwww!! I would love to see what it looks like full

[@Arthineas]

Great video as always. Dan I was hoping that you would do a mustache video. For me the mustache is the biggest time consumer that I have in my beard process in the morning. I did try out your whole mustache routine this morning and it definitely helped. I found all the tips very helpful. The only part that did not help quite as much as I expected it to was the brush part where you brush up and out. Don't get me wrong it did help but not like how it does for you. To be honest it might be because I am using a synthetic bristle beard brush and not a boars(I don't like boars hair products). And also probably because I am not used to using this technique. I am sure it will work better for me over time. The two most effective tips for me were - 1) blow drying the mustache straight down before combing to the side. I was amazed how well this worked. My beard and mustache are fairly curly. My mustache wants to curl in toward my mouth on both sides . Particularly the left side. Normally I would try to blow dry my mustache in the exact direction that I want it to lay. Which for me is to the left/right and down(providing extra thickness to my connector areas). I would do this and a lot of the time my mustache would still want to curl in. It would take a lot of work and effort to make it lay where i want. Drying it straight down made it dry pretty straight. I was amazed. 2)Pinching the hair between my thumb and finger and running it the length of the mustache also worked wonders. I was really surprised how well that also helped to put the mustache where I wanted it to lay. I never thought to do that. I always tried to make it lay in place with just my Kent comb. Sometimes the more I had to comb it the crazier it would lay. Sorry if this post is long winded but I just wanted to say THANK YOU Dan! I really appreciate you and all you do for the bearded community.

[@DanCBearded]

I love the detailed post brotha! Awesome experience and feedback. Thank you!

[@louismilano2701]

The reason I've been trimming my stash is because I didn't want it in my mouth! But I'm growing it out now, I'm going for the handle bar stash!

[@shannahershey4779]

I have a mustache i live it so far but im only 3 months into it so its at the awkward stage so im starting to train it

[@DanCBearded]

Train that puppy!

[@seanandhelen]

I’ve been training my stache with heat, Kent, bristle and balm every day for 18 months now. My stache just says NO! I’ve learned to appreciate it the way it is now.

If you can train a dragon surely you can train a moustache
