Hi guys! I'm celebrity barber Matty Conrad. I teach beard grooming techniques that help guys at home achieve better results and have more confidence when trying to tame those wiry whiskers.
In my opinion Beard care is always going to be focussed on two primary steps 1) Beard Care (products) 2) Beard Trimming (tools)
1) BEARD CARE
When it comes to care I always had a hard time finding a beard wash that actually takes care of my skin and makes my beard feel soft while smelling fresh and rinsing clean. Thats why I made my own. I stand behind it 100% and I honestly think its one of the best in the world ( and so do a lot of other people)

2) BEARD TRIMMING (Tools)
Because I am a professional I usually uses pro tools like the ones below. It's easily the most common question I get asked ... so here are links to them both.

BUT often the feedback is that these tools are too expensive for everyday guys and most guys just don't need something so premium to do their daily grooming. So I have been on the lookout for more affordable alternatives.
One day not that long ago the people at BRIO reached out and sent me a BEARDSCAPE PRO. In all honesty I am a bit of a dick when it comes to tools referring to themselves as PRO. But I wanted to give it the benefit of the doubt and put it through the paces to see if it stacked up against my usual line-up.

Here is my honest review...
WHAT I LIKED: The tool feels very solid, the run time and battery life is excellent, the blades are sharp and cuts very clean, the motor is nice and quiet, its easy to set up and use, the tabletop charger looks great on my countertop, the zero blade cuts fairly clean and shaves the hair down tight, and the carrying kit is clearly good quality.
WHAT I DIDN'T LIKE AS MUCH: I still don't like that its called the PRO 😂 The guards are a bit tricky to get on and off and don't really "click" when they are attached properly so you kind of second guess whether they are going to stay on HOWEVER so far they have never fallen off when I am using it. The trimmer blade does a fairly decent job of trimming the hair tight down but the unit itself is a bit bulkier than most of the trimmers I have used which makes it a bit of a challenge to see what you re trimming at first... this does gets easier with a bit of practice but it is an adjustment.
OVERALL
I actually like it for home use... it's a good value and its a decent choice for someone who is looking for a quality tool at a slightly better price point.
