ABOUT BEARDBRAND
Beardbrand is a men’s grooming company that is helping men keep on growing by providing education and tools for urban beardsmen to master their morning routine. We’ve found that confidence starts with self investment, and allows men to do great things for their families, co-workers, and community. We are working to break down the negative stereotypes that surround bearded men, and show the world it’s the man who matters, not the way he looks.

I just recently came across your videos. My Granddad was a barber for 73 years. He started when he was 14. When he turned 18 he went to barber college in Birmingham, Alabama so he could get his license. He later worked at Craig Field in Selma until they closed the base. He was there for 43 years. He also had his own shop in his home until he turned 92, then he retired. He started the shop in his kitchen, then in 1965 he built an addition next to the kitchen for a shop. He was open until 8 pm every night and 8 to 8 on Saturdays. Needless to say I never had long hair. I'm 63 now and don't have much hair so I comb it with my shaver. Enjoy your videos, kinda takes me home.

I don't know what is about a man with a nice fade and a full beard. Love it. I did both round and square. It all depends on the neck and hair growth for me. I lined at the end. When I was in my shop back in the day, I did a lot of military and guys about to join. I really enjoyed doing a nice fade. Everyone does it a bit different and I like to see the difference techniques. You are awesome.

For handlebar mustache a life hack I use is Elmer’s glue stick. Perfect for the pocket and on the go. The tips stay perfect 👌🏼

[@tgif3658]

I line up around the ears and the neck when finishing clipper work on the sides and back… I may also get a head start on the beard lining that too if there’s bulk that can be knocked off around the ears and on the sideburns. After finishing the top I’ll clean up the hairline and check around the sides and back for anything I may have missed. Im excited to go to work rn ! I know this is old but you’re awesome 🤍😊

Interesting way to cut the top, I haven't seen it done like that before. I generally do square/rounded by what the client prefers- it depends on the cut/client's hairline as well. Digging the music for sure and glad to see the 100 year anniversary Whals put to use! -O'Corsi 💈👻

I'm just seeing this video but it's great work! I'm a licensed barber in 3 states and Ontario CA. I say square backs unless it's going to elongate the neck, then you should do round back.
