Great advice bro. I remember 8 months into my journey I cut my beard all the way down. Had a function for my son, and wanted to look “clean” like u said “outside influences”. Worst decision ever on this beard journey. Started growing it back and never looked back. 2 years later here I am 👍🏽✊🏽
Just crossed a year in Sept. I realize it is a beard. But it is for the wisdom..it is for the man...it is for the sophistication. I love my gibraldi look. Fellas keep going because opinions shouldn't matter in all affairs of men.
Listen to this man, he knows what he's talking about! Especially about managing expectations. I learned you can't look at his beard, or someone else's you like, and expect yours to turn out exactly like that - you might be disappointed. You have to be willing to embrace *your* beard, which may or may not grow like what you see on other people.
And also when you have a bad beard day don't cut it, think about the time it took to grow and wait, often the beard will be better after a couple of days. Great vids and awesome healthy beard you got there, keep up the good work!
Great advice bro. Closing in on 2 years of growth,I can say the biggest thing i've done to help me grow the beard i currently have right now, is no trimming it at all! Everyone's beard grows different though. Mine just happen to grow to where i didn't have hardly any split ends are alot of wild hairs out of place, so it was easy to maintain. I also patted my beard in, like you said, to make it look way shorter, without trimming it.
@@BeardedExistence Thanks bro. Plenty of times i wanted to give up and cut it back to a short beard. Watching vids like this, made the journey easier. I'm trying to figure out how your beard grew back so fast. Growth is crazy!
kingtali 1985 yeah bro me too It would be so much easier 😂 but I did that before and regretted it I am thinking about keeping this length and not going any bigger but part of me wants to see how much longer it will grow👊🏾
Been growing mine since August 2016. My beard was down to my mid chest in exactly a year. Trimmed in November 2017 cause my supervisor thought I should trim it, even though I didn’t have to, but I did. Big mistake. But I let it rock out all the way to now. I’ll never trim my beard again. Thick and full. Love the channel bro! 💯
Yo brother, I feel you on the dreads patience. Teaches you because of your current situation doesn't mean you know the possible out come. I hear you fo real!
Nice beard man… I got the beard at least 2 inches long, but I want my mustache to look like yours lol that thickness will make it look great mine is still to short.
Very true about growing your beard past where you want it and then trimming it to where you do. Very important. A lot of guys think (but may not know better) that shaping happens naturally. I contantly screw up my neckline personally because of this very reason.
Glad i clicked on this video. I'm 3 months in and thought about trimming my sides because my beard is coarse and thick and has hairs sticking out so I thought I should trim....thank God I found your video. Blessings to you and #beardforth
Bruh, you should consider coining your phrase, "You cannot trim your way to a BIG beard." Put it on a t-shirt! That's fire!🔥 Thank you for your service! You have helped me so much. Blessings! 🙏🏾💪🏾
#1 was the absolute most important step That mental part is crazy. For example, I’m restarting my journey for about the 3rd time I lose count and primarily due to the outside world. i.e. Job, family, friends, wife and self 😂
I’m growing out a beard and it’s going on about a month in a few days.. it’s already trying to connect. Learned patience when growing out my hair now onto the beard!
I shave my beard 1st of july for the summer then the last day of september i grow it for winter then by november my beard looks like yours my facial hair grows very very quick
*Good morning my brotha♥Never was a fan of beards because men simply didn't care how they looked but now I'm absolutely amazed at how coiffed beards are now and THANK GOD!! You look absolutely gorgeous* ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥
Hey much success on your journey man, got shot in the left cheek 9 years ago, Got a patchy beard on the left cheek but it's hard to notice it gets thick and fuller
Great beard!!! I have a question sir, I am white, but I shit you not, I have a black man's beard curliness. How is this possible??!! LOL. Great videos. Thanks for the advice.
All your videos brotha has value in there at some point or maybe all areas. But this one bro is VERY VALUABLE and should be promoted or something because a lot of people have their own perspective on how it grows and more but this is on POINT 🎯 blessings brotha! Your dope! Keep up the light on your journey! 🙏🏾
J Black You will have areas of your beard that grow slower than others patients is key!! Keep that area clean and use oils that keep your pores clean and stimulate hair growth I’m going to do a video on this topic. 👊🏾
I started my beard October 15th 2018. Right now the time is February 18th 2020 and I'm just seeing growth underneath the neck where I can have a comb snag. Patches are starting to have small growth on the cheek area, but my side and jaw area looks good. My chin is very long and my mustache can be put all the way in my mouth. #TrustTheProcess
For your beard the only word that comes to mind is... EPIC! I didn't announce to anyone I was going to grow a beard, not even my wife LOL. Now that I'm 3 months in my family is starting to tip toe around the subject. I had to renew my drivers license yesterday and my picture....I looked like a bum. Oh well, eventually I'll get past the crap stage and make it respectable.
@@BeardedExistence it looks like it is growing in the front than on the sides. I got a trim because I had some split ends. I have been growing it for about a year now. First trim in some months.
Bearded Existence and its crazy cause I actually have trimmed the hairs that poke out only to find out the next day or same day they return! Lol so i said screw it i groom it the best i can and keep my neck and cheeks clean. I think it will be a very long time before i see a barber and then i gotta choose wisely
Brother i appreicate you always droping knowledge ive learn alot by watching your videos you and beard samson has the best beards on you tube love you my brother ✌
@@3mason26 - Basically, don't cut your beard at all during the growing phase. Don't even outline your beard! Depending on how your beard grows, you could be cutting hairs that are meant to lay down over other hairs to give you the "full" beard look. Like the man said in the video, just grow your beard until you get to the length you want and then you can start shaping and trimming. If you cut/trim early, you're stunting growth of the beard!
Josh Harmon this video is inspired by my personal experiences, successes and failures on my journey!! I do believe that almost everyone that has tried to grow a beard or do anything outside of what society considers the norm has gone through these things and probably have the same experiences!!
The bearded Appetite yeah It’s a good concept silk is good for the beard probably works. I don’t think I can wear it though having it around my ears all night. the silk pillow case is good for me👊🏾
I just bought foods rich in the vitamins necessary for beard growth.... vitamins include Vitamins C,D, E, B7,biotin, niacin, and thiamin. No haircut for 60 days. So we'll see. Thanks B💯
Can you make a video on a practical routine for men during the cold winter months like on the East Coast and Midwest? As you know the "Hawk" can be brutal on the beard😩😁. Thanks again
Hey I really have a problem that I have been struggling with for a long time. Basically, my left side is weaker than the right side of my beards. It does not grow equally and it really frustrates me cuz I have to always trim, which I don’t want to. I really need advice on this pls. Thank you.
Just watched your video and I’m trying to let my beard grow long n thicker my wife motivates me not to cut it at all she loves the way I’m growing it… but question what balm is best to use on beards
Good video and great advice man. Question though what was your process training the hair towards the back of the beard? Just a heavy balm and brushing?
When the beard is short you can brush but once it gets to a certain length if your beard is course and curly you have to be careful because the brush will pull hairs out. My night routine as twisting gave me my best results👊🏾
@@BeardedExistence that's my dilemma because it's not long enough to twist back there but not really short enough to brush and train. I think ima bite the bullet and have my barber trim the back down some, balm and brush, and train it that way. Just a little temporary set back but I'll get right.
Films Yeah we all get there I have cut my beard off a couple years ago and definitely regretted it! It’s definitely a journey! Stay strong thanks for the support and feedback 👊🏾
literally one of the greatest beards i've seen !
Thanks bro I appreciate that👍🏾👊🏾

My wife is on my case, telling me to cut my beard, but I’m not gonna give in, it’s been 9months and counting 🙌🏾🙏🏾
Mentally preparing is a must
Just crossed a year in Sept. I realize it is a beard. But it is for the wisdom..it is for the man...it is for the sophistication. I love my gibraldi look. Fellas keep going because opinions shouldn't matter in all affairs of men.
Love this comment!
I watch all his videos. Honestly the best beard videos on UA-cam.

@LastDon_909 Thanks brother.. You'll get there... stick with it, don't over trim.
Man your beard looks nice af. It's rare to see black men with beards like that
My advice was “you gotta go through the ugly phase”
Yo im trying to grow my beard like this brutha!
I have a medium sized beard and working to get into the big beard gang.. Great tips and much respect brother!!
Love the tip about patting it in. I have an curly beard myself
Dueqwell Smith it can really shape your beard and make it look perfectly groomed!!👊🏾

Great advise, love the beard!! 100% on what you say is right, letting mine grow and its a struggle, the way it looks from day to day!!
Yo brother, I feel you on the dreads patience. Teaches you because of your current situation doesn't mean you know the possible out come. I hear you fo real!
No doubt fam👊🏾
A beard worthy of its majesty

FuzzySoulTiger thanks bro much appreciated 👍🏾👊🏾
Great video. Patience and proper maintenance are key.
tariq abdussamad thanks 👊🏾
It also helps to take Vitaims... fish oil, and collagen powder.. have a good diet...
