10 Beard Mistakes You MUST Avoid 

Number one mistake, listening to a woman who tells you to shave it.

I used Weedborn CBD products and healed without any problems.

It was either my beard goes or she leaves me, sometimes I miss her 😜

Guy with awesome beard: "Don't compare your beard to everyone else" Me: 😕

Mistake #10 "Dont compare your beard to everyone else" Me: Comparing my beard to his the whole video

I have experienced receding hairline for so many years now so I just shave my head and never thought of growing a beard. Just 2 months ago I thought why not grow a beard since winter is approaching here in Colorado and see what happens. And Man I'm so happy now especially after sticking it out through the rough phases. Now my level of confidence has sky rocketed because I have hair on my head again but it's on the south side. Thanks for a very informative video! And my beard is helping me in my work environment and socially. I went to a bar recently and the woman I was talking to thought I was a lawyer/ attorney when she 1st seen me walk through the door. You have to go fishing with the best bait!

Mistake #9 "Smoking stops beard growth" Gandalf : Hold my pipe...

Everyone is different. You will typically see substantial growth if you leave your beard alone for 3-4 months. Then you can assess you growth patterns and fullness and go from there!

Absolutely phenomenal advice. I learned all of this the hard way and it's good to see folks providing ACCURATE advice. I'm 11 years strong on my beard and wouldn't have it any other way!

1st video I've watched from you, and it is straight to the point, informative, and not full of ads. Thank you! Happily subscribed :)

“Own the beard you have, embrace it with confidence” got you a new subscriber! 👍🏽

Beard oil does help your skin, but I've found that it also makes my coarse beard hair softer. When I hit mid-life years, my beard hair started bothering my wife because it scratched her, but the oil on my beard has led to many more kisses.

The best overall beard care video I've seen! Thanks, brother!

I am literally in awe of the epicness irradiating from your majestic beard

Great looking beard. Not trimmed mine for over eight years

Great tips! Good to see y’all more active on RU-vid.

I didn't know that I needed this video in my life until it popped up in my 'suggested'. Thank you sir.

I love that piece of advice, compare never your beard with anyone else's. Thanks for the video

I love that there are videos dedicated to beards! Rocking my first beard right now

"Don't trim your beard at all for 90 days". Copy that. See you in a couple of months.

You looks like a beard expert

Thank you for just taking 5minutes of my time and explaining everything in detail

I'm subscribing thanks man, great video. Big mistake I made and trimmed it at the chin line not the neck line. Should I start over or let it catch up?

Dope video. Surprisingly informative and no wasted time. Thank You

Don't trim too* often

The best advice I could give to anyone is just let the thing grow, if needed use product to make look look kept up with and so it doesn't go wild but let it grow. Give it a good 4-6 months of not cutting not trimming unless you absolutely have to because it's obviously unbalanced. Than go to a barber and ask them to trim and balance your beard for you. They will be able to shape it just save some photos of what you shape you want and show it to them and they can put you on the right path. Hair takes a lot of time to grow and if you are not skilled/confident in trimming it let a barber do it for you after that point you have a rough outline of where to trim once it starts to grow longer. As it gets longer it will cover up spots with thin hair, I can grow an amazing beard on the sides of my face but my chin is one large thin spot and it's hard to manage because of how thin the hair is there and how slowly it grows but as the bottom portion of my jaw started to fill in it was hardly noticeable. When it does start to grow you are able to comb/brush your hair how ever you like but you can also comb thicker spots over light patches to hide them.

Great tips. Crisp, clear and helpful. Thx

Really enjoyed this video. Real honest advice, not an advertisement to sell products.

Love the tips man keep it up! I loved that you mentioned smoking- I was a smoker for years and started developing a receding hairline- once I finally quit my hair grew back near the front of my head and my beards were much fuller!

Started my beard journey June 15th of this year! Definitely have had the days where I look in the mirror and it looks like crap, but those are the days you push through. Cause the end goal is right there with patience

Great video. Straight to point & easy to understand

Great tips to help a new beard grower. Keep up the great work brother.

Nice tips.. Thanks a million!!

I am 64 Years old... Starting my first beard hey.. now I am loving it... I am retired and no one can tell me anyting about proper work facial hair stuff anymore... I finally feel as if I am free! My wife loves it yes, and so do I!

thanks for explaining the neckline. I had a feeling I was missing out on some width.

thank you man i have plan to grow a beard and i needed a guide

Best beard advice ever! So good I had to leave my first ever RU-vid comment. Thanks Brother!

extremely straight to the point, with that pace I could listen to you speak for hours

Very helpful. Thanks for the vid.

GREAT video! Just stumbled on this on accident and it confirmed many of the things I assumed, and taught me a few things I didn’t know. Let’s beard it up!

Thx a lot

I love that Legendary 1920s mustache.

I had always prayed that my man would have an amazing beard, and God did not disappoint. My bearded, blue-eyed prince, however, does not have a single sweet clue about how to take care of it properly. These videos are amazing and I can honestly say they have helped SO MUCH. Long live the beards 👏🏼

Very informative thanks!!

Most people who appreciate a beard will like yours a lot more than you do. Those who don't like beards are highly unlikely to give you positive advice or encouragement. Look after your beard in the manner suggested in this video and sit everyone out if you can. Its easier when you're older as work isn't always a drag on your beard ambitions. All you have to do is wait.

0:58 yes there is, it’s called minoxidil. Worked for me and many others

Your beard’s awesome! Thanks for the tips brotha!

great stuff! thanks for the heads up!

The sharp edges on plastic combs actually aren't from snapping the comb off anything. The mold for the comb is made in two halves to allow for removal after cooling, and the line where the two mold halves meet won't create a perfect seal, no matter how skilled the moldmaker is. A small amount of plastic oozes out between the two halves when it's injected, and the issue slowly gets worse as the mold wears out. The only thing that gets snapped off is the gate where the liquid plastic is injected into the mold. That will look like a small, rough circular spot in one or more spots on the part. You'll also find smooth circular areas on the comb with their own flashing. Those are from pins incorporated into the mold used to eject the part after the two halves open. A good quality saw-cut plastic comb won't have any flashing, and is a good alternative to wood.

great vid and great explenations ! thanks !

Excellent video. Great advice in a timely manner. Thumbs up.

I have started my beard journey two days ago on August 1 from a clean shave. I'm a mix of salt and pepper and have always been self-conscious of my grays, but now I'm ready to embrace my silver and take a seat at the table. Thank you very much for the tips, I'll certainly be referring to them as my beard grows.

Just recently started using live Bearded products again. I forgot how good the products are!!! Great video! I’ll be doing a review soon. Stay tuned 👌🏻👍🏻

the oil tip very helpful

That last advice is gold 👌🏼

Kent Combs are fine and not molded plastic so they won’t have your little micro burrs but they will create static.

Just found you guys, just subscribed ill be watching. I've got a Shaggy little go-t and a little mustache.... Little. But im still young just 19 bit one day ill have a fat beard too

Just bought my first bundle and a 'live bearded' hat. Super stoked to receive them!

Great post and great tips

Who actually regards the area under the bottom lip as "patches"? That's pretty normal.

I’ve been waiting 20 years to grow a beard; haven’t shaved for nearly three weeks now and it’s looking good. Thanks for the info.

Man your advice is really good, the video is well done and you go straight to the point I love that !

Really excited just placed my first order! Thank's for the 10 mistakes video Learned alot from it.

I'm trying to grow one, I grew it out before an got depressed when I shaved it off. But I'm back for round 2, I'm only 2 weeks in. But I'm glad I found out about these helpful tips. I made so made of these bad decisions on my first grow. I noticed the Oil did make it stink more an I was washing my beard everyday & wondering why I wasn't seeing true growth. Glad I'm stronger & ready to get this going!

Beard oil does help your hair stay moisturized too sir!

So good. Such simple but huge info. I'm just starting my beard. Good for me to hear all of this. Where did you get your GRATEFUL shirt at? Very needed in our world now. THANKS

Phenomenal advice sir, and very much appreciated. Thumbed up with no hesitation AND Subscribed. Keep up the great work.

uhh minoxidil changed me from no facial hair to a total beard

Spent 1-9 obsessing over his beard and being disappointed with my own, then he hit me with number 10... 🙄🤷‍♂️

Best video for tips on beards I have ever seen!

As a rookie beard grower - this was invaluable info. Thank you. 💯😊

I just did the shave the cheeks down to the chinstrap thing. I salvaged the mustache and goatee. Beard round two, go.

When I decided to grow a beard, I suddenly noticed how many men have beards. I live in the San Francisco Bay Area and it seems even more prevalent here as there is a big hipster scene. The boots, jeans, flannel shirt buttoned up all the way to the top, glasses, big beard, and arm sleeve tattoos. Many guys have this look but not all can pull it off. I don’t have a theory as to why there has been a huge surge in wanting a beard and I am often asked why I am growing one. I half jokingly answer “I grow a beard because women can’t.” 😉.

Awesome tips to keep in mind, thanks!

First time ever that I click that notification bell ! Phenomenal tips and actually I got some info from this video that I've been searching for ... for years now ! What's your opinion on beard straighteners though ?

For #2 just use minoxidil. Will probably take a year but you'll grow new hair on your beard. Edit: To be fair you did say follicles which you CAN'T create, even with minox. but still, minox is almost magic for a patchy beard.

Also if you smoke and wear a beard, your mustache will turn yellow and that is not a good look.

WOW, amazing video. I did not know a lot of these facts even though I have a thick beard. I have always used a plastic comb, never would’ve known that holds me back.

Nice tips bro

Don't tell me what to do Spencer. I'm a free man.

My Beard loves to smoke Cannabis! 🔥🌲🔥🌲🔥🌲

Surprisingly helpful. Thank you

Good tips, but bruh... your beard is asymmetrical and it’s driving me nuts.

Don't bite your beard.

Thank you gor the helpful tips!

Great tips brother

I'm guilty of the bar soap

mistake 1 Dont take beard advice from people. Just grow it.

Love this!!!! Great info and to the point!!! My guy has a magnificent beard. Trying to get him to do the handle bar look.

Great video👍Thanks again bro.

I wish he wouldnt have had the camera on himself the whole time. Barely learned anything that beard is fantastic and distracting

BUTTER???

Excellent video. Keep up the good work.

Great tips !!

The 307 dislikes on this video must be people who cant grow a beard.

WHAT? it dont go on your Beard? put the oil on the skin? under neith.Ok let me finish watching?

Thank you guys for this. Awesome/well made video!

Thank you for the advice

I’m 17 smoke a pack a day and still have a full beard, I never wash my beard and always use a plastic comb, which has led me to the conclusion that 95% of beard growth is genetics
