What do you think of Mahesh's new look? Let us know in the comments!
- Jack
Beardbrand mahesh from INDIA????
Loving the look Mahesh
I liked his long beard. I like his beard as it is trimmed. It still looks good and he's satisfied with it.
Beardbrand I think the new look is far better. Still retains his trademark look, but the beard looks fuller and the shape is spot on. 👌
looks great, very smart...
Love the Cut, Sir. I say healthy over length anyday--but then, its really a personal choice, isn't it?
I don't have a super long beard, but what I've noticed is that when I grow it out for a few months then do a trim it always ends up looking fuller than it would have at that length had I just stopped growing it at that point. I think the slower hairs end up catching up and you end up with something unique and only achievable by letting it grow out longer first. It's such a fun and interesting process.
Love the way it looks Mahesh. ✌️
I love how that’s a trim for him. That’s as long as some guys could ever dream of, myself included. Looks good, brother!
At 71, I’ve had a beard for most of my life......always short. I’m making the attempt to grow it out, similar to yours. I very much like the shape and length of your beard. My cheek lines and the texture of my facial hair seem a lot like yours. Thank you for your videos......I always enjoy them.
I absolutely love all of what is talked about. He doesn't simply talk about the beard and that the beard is not who he is.
"Are you only being the beard or are you a man with a beard?" - Mahesh
When people ask "Do you miss your big beard?"
My reply is "No, I missed my face" lol
Excellent response!
- Jack
Seriously, the Sultan and Mahesh have helped me out immensely when it has comes to my beard. I hadn't cut it down to my face for a good 9 years. I have tried trimming here and there and would be happy for awhile but I would fall back into not being 100% happy with it. This I attribute to me growing it and trimming a bunch while I grew it. Given everything I've learned with my beard in all those years and the Sultan just owning that you are you, you are not your beard. I decided that if I want my beard to be exactly how I want it, I should just start over. Mind you I haven't actually shaved but I have trimmed inches off. I'm confident in knowing I can get back to where I want to be but I'm also cool with where I am. Cheers guys!
That would have been an excellent response, If you get what I mean.
Lol I've asked you this before
100% how I felt.
"just a bit shorter" THAT'S QUITE A BIT SHORTER! However, change is good, and it does look great. Definitely appears to be thicker and fuller.
I agree on the shorter fuller beard for all of the reasons you have said Mahesh. I now can remember one of Craig's older videos when he said that people around us will not notice much of a difference when we go to a shorter beard. I've done that myself recently after completing my yeard and I'm much happier with my look given all the points made by both of you. Thank you Beardbrand.
Looks Much Better , I would have wanted the same , much more healthy looking . Outstanding length and density . Good for you Mahesh ! Looks Great .
I just did the same thing, it’s so liberating and looks so much fuller like you said. So many less bad beard days. I don’t understand the stigma behind the no trimming. Doesn’t make any sense. Longer doesn’t mean better.
It's awesome to not get tied down to one single look, isn't it?
- Jack
Beardbrand absolutely.
It actually looks really good because of how full it now looks. You're right. Love it
Mahesh, he did a GREAT job! I think it's a HUGE improvement. I thought the old beard look good but wasn't crazy about the point on the bottom. This new look suits you just fine.
Love the shorter beard and love the idea of going with a gnarly stache!! I wish my mustache would grow thick.
Your beard looks great. I like it.
Looks awesome Mahesh!! Neat and full.
Hey Mahesh great video. Love the new beard look. It suits you as did the long beard. Growing beard has added to my self esteem for some reason but as you said it is only part of who I am. Thanks for posting. Always enjoy your talks.
It definitely takes a few days to a week for the beard to set in after you've trimmed more than an inch+ off. I find that if I trim a 5 or 6 monther down to a 3 monther, it for certain takes a handful of days for the beard to look like it should.
I have to be honest, for years I have struggled with always feeling like I have to have the longest beard around...period. If I saw someone with a longer beard, It reinforced my thinking. The problem was, It never looked as good to others, as it did to me. And also, the whole "identification" thing...working a farmer's market, I took pride in being known as "the guy with THE beard"...rather than "the guy with A beard"...I too also want to be appreciated for who I am, rather than how I look... and at a certain length (no where near Mahesh's long beard) mine did get very thin...so, I need to change my thinking, and my trimming....right now I'm at about 41/2-5 inches.....We love ya Mahesh, thanks for keeping us honest!
Looks amazing man. I enjoyed watching the trim on your channel (Mahesh’s) but it seems to have been taken down. What’s up with that?
I believe Mahesh is migrating his videos onto his new channel, All Us Men
- Jack
Ten years younger, Mahesh! Who's next, Billy Gibbons???
This is a much better look for you, in my opinion. The difference made by a few inches is amazing.
Looks great just had my beard shaped up and am happy with my look it's very hard here in NC to find someone that can shape a big beard
It looks much more uniform. Really brings it all together, looking great 👍
Absolutely!
- Jack
Love the crisp white beard. Looks like fresh shaved ice lol
You're beard still looks fantastic.
Looks great Mahesh! Not a bad change at all!. Looks nice and full man. It'll always grow back 👍
"Because I felt like it" is all the explanation needed.
1) Did you video it?
2) It looks a lot more professional. Given your line of work, a perfectly maintained squared off beard is I would say necessary to your image.
You're one of the only bald guys (like me) I can find in these channels.
Same here!
AMAZING I love it!!!!!!!
Wow Mahesh, it looks really good brother! Can’t wait to see if it keeps the density when you grow it back!!
Fantastic! New glasses too? Good choice. ;)
Beard looks much better with the trim
Looks good!! Hair always grows.
Mahesh, BIG fan and I've gotta say the beard looks great! Keep on keeping on.
yeah i get what you mean. i used to have really long curly thick hair akin to slash from guns n roses and after so many years of growing that out it because so much of what people would think of when they saw me that when i eventually outgrew it and wanted something shorter i was wondering what sort of impact it would have on my social life. Just turned out people would stare at me a bit less haha ever since then ive never been too scared off a change of style when you shave off over 20 inches of hair wearing some colourful trousers or something like that isnt a huge deal anymore
My beard isn't the longest, but a few of these vids have definitely given me the confidence to trim the wispy shit from the bottom of my beard - girth over width all day! Cheers brother.
What a chill guy Mahesh is. Love all his videos.
Great video man, really liking the trim, it looks really good & much thicker.
It may not be as iconic, but I think this suits your slim face much better.
Looks very full, doesn't it?
- Jack
Mahesh my friend your beard looks good even when it was long👍🏼👍🏼 in all honesty you seemed like a master barber that specializes in beard trims as if you were a wizard 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Hey Mahesh, I think you look smashing. I like the shape better than when it was long. The round glasses are better as well.
Looks good and I bet certain things in life are easier with the shorter beard
Looks good brother...No regrets! I think it will suit you're lifestyle better.
Shorter or longer, that really is up to you. Looks great both ways. I really enjoy having facial hair and remember back to as a boy how I wanted to have a beard...but society did not permit this when my beard started growing as a young man. Jobs didn't allow it...restaurant, sales, and the military law enforcement...no beards back in the early 80s until just recently. I finally was able to embrase facial hair and allow it to grow it when I was about 40 years old and have had facial hair most of the time since then. I am now 57 and really like my salt and pepper beard...turning silver now. Short, long, it's all good as long as we are happy with our appearance.
Why didn't he record it?
I actually don't care either way- it's his insightful commentary that interests me. At a certain point of self actualization, I did not really need to think about my beard anymore. I often forget I have it until it gets caught in the car seatbelt or something. What amazes me at times is when total strangers make comments. Sure when you post a video on it, comments are expected. Last week a hostess at a restaurant made a couple ignorant statements, which caught me off guard. I wanted to ask her if she shared in the servers tips at first. Then I made the conscious decision to be kind, educate her on a few things and try to be a good ambassador for bearded men in general. It's only during times like that I really think about a drastic change.
Hi Mahesh,
I just found your channel and have watched aprox 10 videos on shears and beard cuts. this one though hits right home, you mention so many points I have as well. Similar beard as your self growing strong for over 23 years. My wife tells me the same thing I'm like you happy having it long = less maintenance. I am about to put the trim in and round and shorten to about what your working with now. thanks allot for sharing your experience with us.
I like the look of both but it all comes down to what makes you happy.
Your beard looks fantastic now. It looked fantastic then. Keep up the good work. Love your videos.
I like it! Looks great! Nice change!
Looks amazing! Also great perspective as usual Mahesh.
After I watched this video. Sir Mahesh looks so nice in this shape and length too. It's suits at his Face better than before.
The beard is in point as always sir.A change is good every once in a while,and for me that the fun think about beards(experiment).Everything you said was very for me!
Exactly! Changing things up is refreshing
- Jack
Looks good CLEAN 😎🤙
That is my first comment on your channel. I was really surprised by your new look and the fact that you cut that much of your beard. And I must admit that your beard looks better now than before the trim :)
That was a bold move to cut that much and it pays off by the look of it ! kudos !
Great sweatshirt Mahesh, wheres that from?
Btw bro im all about the thicker beard whichever makes you feel good!
I like it. I was a fan of the longer beard but I do think the shorter, fuller beard looks better imo
Yea man, your beard looks beast now. I agree with the length problem. It gets to a point were its wispy and when it reaches a certain length it just looks long and narrow. Almost looks like a long gotee regardless of it being a full beard. Great choice, and looks awesome.
Beard looks great
Looking great Mahesh. Beards looking healthy, full, and hydrated.
I liked how your beard looked before, but this style looks great too. Some great shape on that!
i liked your Kamesennin style beard but this is your choice and its still great. Still envy the grey transition
I like it man. Makes you look younger I think. And that self awareness you have and not wanting to be attached to an image is perfectly understandable. I love bodybuilding. You know. Aesthetics. Taking topless photos for Instagram every once in awhile / quite regularly when I’m not in tuba mode, and I’m way more than bodybuilding, but it just seems to take up so much focus and hmm yeah. Anyway. That’s why I like to grow my patchy beard out sometimes. Change my appearance up abit from time to time not always being this clean cut guy. Most people prob don’t think I am anyway now haha anyway! Cool vid! Congrats. Do you! And probably a good idea by your team of loved ones and friends saying don’t cut it off. Because really you do like it.
You look very handsome with your beard! The beard really complements your facetype.
Excellent video. I have been deliberating recently whether to trim the beard following my yeard, or just keep growing. I have recently felt like I was growing for the sake of growing and haven't really been happy with quality of my beard. This video has really helped me to decide to finally trim, your beard looks in excellent condition. It may be nice to strive for "terminal" beard...but I now realize I am actually seeking "optimal" beard...thanks once again for this super video.
Your beard is still at a nice long length man, it looks greats like this. It looks fuller and healthier!
Great thoughts! Sometimes, letting your beard grow doesn't make any good. Your arguments remind me of what I tell myself in the mirror when I'm about to trim.
It's something to always keep in mind when growing a beard
- Jack
Well said Mahesh and I like the newly trimmed beard.
Actually, I think that's the perfect length and shape. Doesn't get in the way of every day tasks and still looks like a Boss.
Just ordered some beard oil from you guys! it smells great and i got a nice sample of your old money cologne, which also smells great! you can guarantee i’ll be a consistent customer, because you guys are awesome.
Much better than earlier! I want a beard like that.
Mahesh my brother if you are not crying after loosing all that hair I certainly am bro lol you had in my opinion one of the nicest beards on this channel the way you had it before it was one of those beards every mature man who has a full beard strives for . Don't get me wrong it still looks nice I just feel a longer beard and the shape you had it is really a look that suited you.
Beard looks great Mahesh, Dave nice job man. I recently had a beard trim as well, sometimes you take a little off and the beard looks a whole lot better. Plus It will always grow back. Take care friends
Mahesh with the badass beard! I absolutely love the new cut!
He seem like such a Genuine, deep and humble guy, really love his way,
We can back that up, Mahesh is one of the coolest, nicest, and most down-to-earth guys we've ever met.
- Jack
Looking good, Mahesh.
Beard looks great Mahesh! But your 'stache is stellar! Your ink looks amazing also. Nice style you put together!
Namaste Mahesh sir! Love your beard i am also looking forward to grow somewhat like you sir! And definitely i understood what you have said about beards, but sir if you could provide some tips for people having normal density but good growth of beard? I'd love to thank you for that in advance! Love from India and the beard lovers all around the globe. :-)
Your beard looks great with this shape maye
Now you look exactly like the skull you have hanging on the wall at the barbershop. Excellent match!
Wear white with a white beard, black with a black beard. It makes a long beard look thicker.
The beard looks great as ever.
Looks way better... long beards are for wizards and mountain men...
Ouch! We mountain men have feelings too.
Love wizards
Beard looks epic!
So many things to say, but I'll try to keep it short. My beard is indeed it's own entity. It reminds of this every time it wants to do it's own thing. I grow my beard (maybe not for long) for reasons such as I have a weak chin, I have flaws that the beard covers up, and my wife loves my beard. I broke my goal of 2 years with no trim and deeply regret it. The plan was to wait the 2 years and then figure out where to take it from there. When you have a beard (especially a majestic beautiful beard) for a very long time, it does become a part of you whether intended or not. Take George Bruno (Grey Bailey) for instance, I am still having a hard time seeing him without that wonderful beard. Finally, any tips on approaching someone with a beard you admire to ask them questions or what not?
*Its Mimir! The smartest man alive!*
Very nice change.. Looks great on you sir.. Looks fuller and suits your face very well.. Keep up the great vids guys love them all.
Looks really good, fuller, and better balanced with his face.
The beard looks great brother, if I had the patience to grow a big beard I would hope it looks like yours! 🤘
you should trim more on the sides, it would look better in my opinion!
Why Mr mahesh changed his spectacles according to beard ..thats the ques😂 😂 😂
Mahesh. This thicker look definitely is a more powerful and handsome look. The thin beard looks less manly and more weaker. Although it was longer
You are a man with a beard, not a beard! words of wisdom!
New look still looks amazing.
More power to you mahesh! I agree condition over length any day! Mine is a bit shorter than yours only cause i like having a fuller look and just going from there. You are right about owning the beard,
I love this guy....
I would like talk , take a coffee, with him.
Great video!
I totally dig the new look!!
He needs one of those wool Norwegian fishing sweaters with the giant swooped turtle necked collar.
Looks great brother! Enjoy!
