Well, let me know when you can... I also have wolves in the neighborhood But you might be like the government really Sucks for you as in they don't help anymore. 😕 😢
Pretty much the same method I use! My beard is in a knot or a brain at least 50% of the time these days. Best instructional breakdown I have seen on the topic! Many show how they do it, but rarely does someone take the time to break it down 🤝
I appreciate your bold demonstration of beard transparency with use of that bright logo. With my beard just above nipple length, I've realized that I have quit wearing shirts with logos. I'll tie mine in a loose pony about 2-3 inches from the end, but perhaps this will pull it up higher; I'm definitely gonna try. Also, this looks perfect for when you need to run a quick morning errand and have a significant "bed beard." Thanks for your content!
This is a great video Dan!! I love wearing shirts with logos but after growing it out more the transparency kills it. I can’t do a knot but trying out hair ties to make it look fuller and stay together. You’re a brave man with this video but it’s needed in the beard community to show what you can do to make the beard look completely different just by a simple solution!
It’s absolutely amazing. I can’t believe a shirt can do that. ! I actually had to go back and check your video from four days ago to compare. What a difference a shirt makes! FYI…… you rock it, regardless of what shirt you’re wearing!
I have seen so many different ways of doing this knot. First time I see it with that thumb and not tucking the ends in! Extremely educational. THANKS 🙏🏻
Got a hang of the beard knot in a couple hours (had to be use an elastic band), and I must say it's nice to get the beard up! Never thought I would say that, going to try working out with this too! 😃 Thanks Dan!
Wow, thank you for showing us this video! This has been the BIGGEST issue that I have been struggling with. This is a tremendous confidence boost for me.
Thanks for the instructional video on beard knots. I have never tried doing a beard knot, but it would be really helpful to me when I am training Brazilian Jiu Jiitsu. You are the "Trusted Teacher" for all things beard related!
Knot half bad, but I usually do a quick not too tight braid for wind and/or work control. Length and gravity is a big plus w a 3yeard. But ya keep ‘‘em coming, appreciate you bro!
Great video Dan! With the help of this video, I was actually able to successfully do this! I knew my beard was just long enough and tried a bunch of times but just couldn't get it right. I'll still have to grow my beard a bit longer for it to look right but at least I know it is possible now!
Dan!!! Wow thank you so much. I’ve been wanting to do this for while I’m out doing yard work and just couldn’t figure it out. Also thank you for being vulnerable because i NEEDED this
thanks Dan! I've struggled to find something to tie the beard up tighter, for times when I'm soaking in a hot tub or something similar to keep the beard out of the harsh chlorinated water. This won't be that solution, but I know you try to keep your beard away from chlorinated pool/spa water, as well.
Thanks for making this video, Dan! My beard is almost the same length as yours and I have always thought it was too thin as I could see shirt logos through it...nice to know that your majestic mane is a little transparent too.
Brought me some nice relief seeing that even you have issues like this. I was worrying that I'm messing somethig up that leads to transparency. I don't have your lenght. My beard is at around 7 inches and a year and a bit since i started growing and i got some annoying transparency that recently started to show. I hope it gets better with a bit more growth when the rows behind grow in a bit more
Great instructional video! I've been putting mine in a knot when I shave my head / trim sideburns. This way looks like a much better way than how I was doing it. Also have the same t shirt problem, great solution! Thanks Dan 🤜🤛
Brave AF and inspiring. My best beard accentuating BG is charcoal, gray , indigo blue. No logos or black is the issue with seborrheic dermatitis (beard flakes). Exceptional video Dan! ✅👍
Thanks for this Dan! I’ve recently switched jobs and now work for Meijer. The dress code includes company printed t-shirts. I’ve done a couple of things to try and help the beard look better with the shirts. I’ve done the Jeremy Siers rubber band job, I’ve actually almost made a sort of bun and rubber band it, and now I can add this to my arsenal. I definitely prefer to wear it down and free, but I definitely want to feel more confident too.
@@DanCBearded yeah, it’s been awesome! We’ve talked about where I was at the last place. I had a lot of time in there, but I was just at a place where I was taking it home with me and I mentally couldn’t do it anymore. Meijer has been a totally different atmosphere, and there’s never a day that I walk out of there and don’t feel appreciated. I definitely don’t regret a thing!
Wow thanks! I’m going to try this when I’ve got a long bread again. I want to braid it too, gonna be a minute though lol I just finished 30 days into my yeard.
Having a white beard I have to stick with the dark colored t-shirts to make my beard stand out...if I go with a white t-shirt or say a bright yellow t-shirt my beard almost disappears with the lower transparency. A bright logo behind the beard seems to do that as well with mine.
@@DanCBearded Kind of nice to see that others have the same issue...I thought it was just me...but the more I look at other peoples beards I see they suffer from the transparency issue as well...I see some guys that don't...but they must have a million hairs per square inch lol. Mine is probably a medium thickness with finer type hair. Once I get to 8 or 9 inches long measured from the bottom lip...the bottom couple of inches really gets transparent.
I bet they do though! You just aren’t seeing those conditions. 99% of the time there is no visible transparency with my beard. I pick my conditions carefully
Tying mine in a knot for sleeping is a necessity. I also sometimes do it for athletic activities, but my method makes a little pony tail. Ill have to try Dan's method and see what it's like.
Dan, I don't know if you made a video on this or not, but have you considered making a video on the story of when you decided to grow a beard for the first time?
Great video Dan! I have been thinking of experimenting with something like this for a while for those exact type of situations. I appreciate your vulnerability. It makes me feel so much better to know that even your beard doesn't always look spot on perfect either 👍🏻😂
Dan, I've been looking for something like this! A way to "tie my beard up" without using bobby pins and hairspray. LOL 🤷♂ I've since trimmed a couple inches, but that'll be back in know time, so can't wait to try this. Perfect for summer too!. Thanks for all your great vids, man. 🙏🏼
I think my hair is more fine. I have to use the excess to tie it back into the knot a second time to stay. I have just enough length to do that, but still not super stable. I may just need more length to really get a secure double knot. But the explanation is great. I’ve seen a lot of videos that go fast and it can be weird when viewing in reverse to try yourself.
As a mobile auto glass tech, been lookin at ways to keep the beard out of my way when working on cars, especially on those windy days, where the beard likes to fly up in my face. I'm hoping this will help, looks easy enough and will try shortly. My beard is approximately 12" in length, so I definitely need something to keep it out of my way when working.
The struggle is real at getting this to work for me lol. I've been going back and forth in this video, play by play. My brain doesn't compute the opposite of how you are doing it lol.
Looks good, Dan. Is there an advantage to the knot instead of the tie at the bottom? Ken, the Bearded Accountant, does it with a tie and it seems to work well too.
Thanks for sharing. 🙏🏼 I never would have thought to see a logo through your beard that low. So you do a great job by strategically putting your beard and it’s ultimate appearance at the forefront on a daily basis. How high up would you have to take that logo for your beard to completely cover it up (no transparency)? For me, after about four or 5 inches (measuring from the bottom lip line) the transparency is really apparent, I have a tight curly kinky beard.🧔🏽
@@DanCBearded no no I totally get that. 💯 I was just saying how high would the logo have to be for your beard to cover it up without being able to see anything.🤷🏽♂️
@@DanCBearded gotcha well for me it’s about 4 inches below the bottom lip, after that I can’t seem to have any desirable amount of density. But like I said, my beard is super curly so when I stretch out the hair it pretty much doubles, the curls bounce up for added density, I just can’t really get a ton of length from it without it being too transparent.
Great tip there dan 👍 maybe you could do a video on how to tuck it under your chin as well 😊 go from a 6 year beard to a 6 month beard whenever occasion strikes 😀 would be great to see that video 😊
Luv the videos but I don’t understand how you say comb the beard slowly, which I do, during the oil application so as not to pull out hairs or damage them, but then I can tie it in a knot and no damage?
Have you tried it? You would realize the massive difference there. There is no snagging or any real negative tension with this by a knot. It’s not tight. It’s not linking the hairs. Where is the damage coming from?
Question for motorcyclists and cyclists are you damaging your beard if you ride without tying up your beard ?? I have an 8 inch beard and i cycle a lot and was wondering if i should start tying up my beard
Unrelated question. But is it best to use a heated brush and then use beard butter, or should I use the oil butter and then the heat brush. I think in one video, you said oil heat, then butter. I just wanna make sure.
I’m still trying to tie my beard in a knot and I’ve watched the video multiple times and paused it to try and see how you’re doing it step by step and still can’t get it lol maybe one day it’ll happen.
@mihaisuciu8167 nope! There is no tension, snagging, or any issues. If it was tight or had physical things to disrupt the hair, possibly. If you try this, you will realize how easy it is on hair
I always like your videos even before watching love the content my brother I have a question I know more or less a heated brush can be used 2 times a week max what about blow drying can I do that daily? Thanks in advance for any info! Btw I’m Using the heated brush Monday and Saturdays at the moment
Hey Dan, just saw the video and got a bit confused. I thought you did "transparency trims" as you called it? And looking in this video it seems like you need to do a decent chop of the beard? Perhaps clear this one up, as in regards to what you really mean by transparency trims? Thanks man and take care
In this video I showed a shirt that would make anyone’s beard look transparent on this planet. A transparency trim is for trimming the parts of your beard that look thin and wispy with your normal attire.
@@DanCBearded I see what you're saying, but I'm not sure that shirt would make any beard transparent. And I think that's why some beard-barbers recommend contrasting colours when doing a true density/transparency-trim. I still think it would be a great video topic to go through. Thanks for the reply and looking out for the next awesome video.
Side note (suggestion)- I think in every video you should show your profile (side) view. Most beard channels dont and I wish everyone would. Especially Dan C... Hope you don't mind the suggestion. 🤜🤛
Dan, I went into this video not knowing what to think cause I have an intense opinion on so-called “man buns”. This actually is useful….”man bun” not so much.
Hi Dan, i started my beard journey 2 weeks ago and i'm struggling with a question. I already threw away a shitty beard oil that i managed to identify thanks to a lot of research (and mainly to your videos), but with this oil i also bought a beard shampoo of the same brand and line of the shitty oil. What indicators can i use to discover if this shampoo can be bad for my beard health? (ex: a indicator for the shitty oil i mentioned is using "bad silicones" as the base of the product)
That won’t last through the day 100% it’ll come unknotted and then your beard won’t look good and you wont get the knot the same as you did in the morning you need to use a tie
@DanCBearded dude you have one of the most majestic beards and it fits your personality. The knot kinda kills it. Now if you braid it, simply pony tail it or do the beaded viking look... that would be more badass .

I know it's probably not your thing but I'd like to see you do beard beads...
I’ll for sure experiment! If for anything, a video at least
@@DanCBearded haha awesome! Dan C Viking!!
Just saying hi to help the algorithm
Hey buddy!
It’s your beard thinning out ?
Nope, that’s the concept of being purposeful about what you wear under your beard. My video from Sunday was filmed the same day.
Man I used to do this with my head hair all the time but this feels so foreign to try in my beard 😂
Oh interesting!
Dan, I went into this video not knowing what to think cause I have an intense opinion on so-called “man buns”. This actually is useful….”man bun” not so much.
Thanks man!
Hi Dan, i started my beard journey 2 weeks ago and i'm struggling with a question. I already threw away a shitty beard oil that i managed to identify thanks to a lot of research (and mainly to your videos), but with this oil i also bought a beard shampoo of the same brand and line of the shitty oil. What indicators can i use to discover if this shampoo can be bad for my beard health? (ex: a indicator for the shitty oil i mentioned is using "bad silicones" as the base of the product)
Unfortunately water based products aren’t as easy as that. We need to know more, such as the pH level
@@DanCBearded Helps if send the ingredients list of the shampoo here?
No, the pH is more important
@@DanCBearded i understand, as soon as i can test it i will report the results again
Call it a beard bun. lol
I can’t do it 😂
That won’t last through the day 100% it’ll come unknotted and then your beard won’t look good and you wont get the knot the same as you did in the morning you need to use a tie
I literally wore it for 8+ hours today, including the gym for 2 hours and 1,000 calories burn. Didn’t have to touch it once!
Lucky I’m a roofer and at work I have no luck keeping it together
Yeah, that has some tough movements on anything like that
FIRST!
The GOLD!
Second
The SILVER!
That doesn't look good on you bro... I'm sorry
lol shoot, I must have forgotten about the part in the video where I asked people how they think my appearance looks
@DanCBearded dude you have one of the most majestic beards and it fits your personality. The knot kinda kills it. Now if you braid it, simply pony tail it or do the beaded viking look... that would be more badass .
@newyorkdominicanking I’ll stand by my original response. Have a good day man!
@@DanCBearded didn't mean to offend bro... dead ass I apologize
@newyorkdominicanking no worries brotha! You know I appreciate you 🤝
I've been "transparency trimming" this whole time...turns out i've been sacrificing beard gains. Feels bad.
It all comes down to comfort level and goals. No right or wrong!
