    I'm almost exactly at 6 months of growth. It's the first beard of my life, and it's been an amazing journey to be honest. The boost in confidence in undeniable, I have no idea where that comes from, but I've heard a lot of men talk about that boost, so it must be fairly common.

  • @ryancascardo66
    @ryancascardo66 5 років тому +3

    Hell yeah, power beard! That length is really nice. I like how you explained everything about maintenance trims and taming the beard at this length. Its just long enough to be a big, burly, beard with its own shape, but short enough to not take over your face. Good luck with your goals, Eric. And keep on growing!

  • @movement.marcus

    As always a good looking beard. I submitted a photo about a year ago when Jack was going through his "years growth." I am currently in the 18 month of my growth. My beard is now between 14 and 15 inches long. I get complements all the time whenever I am out and about.

    I'm at my 1st 6 month beard and it's rocking hard. So happy I didn't give up. I'm a 5.5ft guy with a bad jaw line and shave my head because I have been balding since I was 26 years old- I am now 54 years of age. I also have premature grey and white hair mixed with some black- so weird but it fits and my new nick name for obvious reasons is Santa and I get joked a lot now since Xmas has passed but I do get great responses to my full fluffy curly natural beard so that is cool. Don't give up on your beard and enjoy the ride.

    Thanks for providing the name, "Power Beard"! Six months would be about three inches, wouldn't it? You're right about taming it taking work, yet in my experience, once I learned how it responded, keeping it tamed didn't seem hard at all. Thanks for all the great, helpful stuff you do!

    My yeard journey started on Jan 1st 2020 so I'm now at the power beard phase and this video popped up in my recommended list as one of the few Beardbrand videos I hadn't seen. The power beard! I like it but it definitely needs to be tamed, otherwise, it has a natural hourglass look to it by dipping in just below the jawline. I need to get me a round brush I think.

    6 month beard is my favorite beard lenght. I've been growing my beard now at terminal length and it does not grow longer than 8 cm below the chin/ 11 cm below the lip. In my opinion it is pretty short for a terminal beard, kind of wish it would grow longer than that. But they still say it belongs in the category long beards 🤷

    My cheeks are still a bit too sparse for a power beard. Just had about the six month length and it wasn't working. It looked a little too ratty. Just trimmed it down quite a bit and now it looks great. I'll definitely have to try for the power beard here in a couple years though since I'm sure my beard will have filled in more by that time.

    The best i got was 4 months. It was the first time i was growing it out. the worst problems were the extreme change in my look and beard dryness coupled with itchiness and hygene concerns. I have tried many times to go beyond 4 months but barely got to 2 months and a half. I am trying it again now.

    Never went more than two months (summer) without shaving. I've now gone five, as I'm a teacher who was sent home in March. I want the power beard, but I don't feel like putting in the work. I have balm and a beard comb, I'm just too lazy to put the same amount of work into a beard as a 50's girl puts into her beehive hairdo. I can't do oils, hairdryers, trimming, etc. Can I be lazy and have a beard or should I just shave now? If it's work, I'm out. Expert advice needed.

    I have just hit the 6 month beard in the last few weeks. Have to agree it’s the most pleasant phase of my journey to date. It really catches attention (if that’s what you’re after). At 5 months I kinda had a bit of a wobble (I wonder if others experienced this?) where I began to think the beard was ‘taking over my face’ and I was really uncomfortable with my look. I began to feel like I was wearing a big hairy rug on my face and became self conscious. But then I passed that phase and now I am fine. I always thought that the hard stages were supposed to be the early stages, and no one ever mentioned that you could ‘have a wobble’ at 5 months. But I did. Anywho, to those that do have a wobble - power through! If in doubt, grow it, don’t mow it. Unless we are talking about your plums - then go ahead and trim those quarter pounders.
