Cool video I'm only starting to grow my beard 19 days growth my checks grows slow but my moustache and area surrounding lower lip and chin grows in quicker My whole hair on my face feels like pubic hair and It scratches I tried beard oil it helps for a while softens the hair then dries up within an hour and goes back feeling like public hair What should I use and I want to let it grow for at least 3 months and I would like a nice beard but the itchyness can be annoying
Dan, my nephew is starting in with a beard for the first time. This video is essential for him, and others starting out. It would be fantastic to re-record these early videos.
Trimmed my beard down a few months back cause I got tired of it, and tonight I clean shaved to do a complete restart and beard journey! Time to start binging this channel again for every tip I can take in or might’ve forgotten! Already missing facial hair and I’m only 2 hours in lol
This is a great teaching video. Just like a good teacher, you have explain things very well. One tip I use is when blow drying your beard, use a round brush to help tuck or roll your beard under to help on those waves.
I have a ginger beard but isn't a bad looking one as I let it grow. Been doing research about my situation on having a blond head and ginger beard. The whole reason I grew this beard, I missed having hair on my head lol. Can't grow it on my head though no more so now trying to grow it on my face. I've never grown a beard before until now hitting my mid 30's. I've always preferred clean shaven since before this time. Wanted to try something new so decided to grow a beard right. Man, all those years shaving my face really added up because my beard has been growing like crazy. Kinda excited to how much, thick etc my beard is going to grow. Anyways great episode, keep up the great content and I'll stay tuned.
Blow drying is a def at times, but I do not use it everyday. Gets my beard going in the direction I want it, which would be down! Always on low heat. As the Sultan of Silver taught me and I quote " Heat plus tension equals direction"
Thank you so much I've just finally am able to grow a beard I hope to grow it long if possible but it's always been hard for me to grow a beard but with all your help it's helping me to be more positive thank you so much and God bless you and your family
Sameee! I hate when bearded guys with unkept beards say "beard envy" or something along those lines. Just takes time, effort, and knowledge to keep it looking good.
@@DanCBearded never =) my old ones were way worse. excellent info. I only use oil..... and ive been doing it not the right way. i am just combing it in. ill have to got some more product.
Just forwarded this link to a couple friends. Love the Luxurious Bastard cap! Just put an order in last night for some of his products and gear. I guess he uses Oud in quite a few of his scents as an under layer. I love the Oud scent. Wife not so much. Great video Dan!
Building up my arsenal as I grow my beard. My next purchase is going to have to be a good comb. The last comb I bought was 0.29 at a beauty supply shop. My beard is still short but it is growing.
Dan, great information as always 👍👍 I would respectfully disagree with combs being useful for shorter beards. Initially I found the boars hair brush to be really useful, and a comb, not so much. It wasn’t until my beard was off my face and started to get some length that I found the comb useful.
Oh I needed and loved a comb for my short beard. Could be the different textures of beards I guess. I like the comb to massage and get into the skin, which is my more firm and better than a brush for that purpose. Get the blood flow circulating, which has been proved with a comb. If anything, for that reason alone.
That makes total sense - I found I was able to massage the skin using a boars hair brush This is one of the reasons I appreciate engagement in the community, because you get to hear other's experience and what worked for them!
@@thomaswillingham1973 I agree completely! You are always pushing me to think differently, and as a teacher I have really grown to embrace and appreciate that. Always making me better, thank you Thomas!
I hate that standard about beards. At my job they kept pestering me until I kept telling them I'm getting it touched up. They eventually stopped and even compliment it, all while it's the longest I've had it.
Kent sawcut R18 T is the best 👍 any tips ? When I shower my beard gets tangled with my pubic hair? My wife tells me to just cut my beard 😜😜? And I told her she needs shock treatments to even say something like that 😂😂😂🤣🤣👍👍✌️✌️✌️ I know we clash at times but your best work was these earlier videos, much love and respect my fellow American
I just saw a video you posted where you say oil does not hydrate your skin that water does and on this one you say it does 😢😩I’m just trying to be a good wife and get my man some beard goods for fathers day😅
lol yup, you learn as you go. There are many terms that people just use along the way. I like to learn about things and not just use them. I have a couple of videos were I correct terms i have been using. For example, I have a video titled "I was wrong, beard products do not emulsify"
Question. Do you put cologne on your face ;which would mean it is getting rubbed onto your beard)the way someone with no beard would or do you feel that’s bad for the beard. If so do you just add it to the back of your neck Thanks
Hi Dan I’ve been growing my beard for over 2 years now and had to trim it here and there because I work in a kitchen and need to keep neat for service. I never took into consideration how important it was to keep a healthy beard and the routines and products needed in order to achieve a healthy long beard. My question to you is.. am I too far into the journey to reverse the damage that I have created such as split ends and brittleness to restore the beard or am I better off shaving it to a shorter length and starting again? I’ve started to take better care and maintenance in probably the last couple of months but I’m worried it’s too late and the damage can’t be reversed. Thanks for your time!
You forgot the #1 beard Tip....................Its Sub and Smash that bell right? I Also use a blow dryer on low heat and low power..........If it was so bad then every-hairdresser in the world would be in the wrong???
The Luxurious Bastard so true I don’t think it’s that harmful to blow dry everyday long as it’s not using nuclear heat lol. Keep the settings low it should be fine.
If I had to offer a tip, it's to grow through awkward stages. Dont panic and grab the scissors everytime. And my go to comb is from badass beard care. Ox horn comb is really awesome. Best comb I've personally used.
Great video as always! Two tips. 1- don't feel obligated and/or overwhelmed to try everything all at once. Don't be afraid of moving a little slower and simply add one product at a time. 2- don't be "bulldog-matic" and force someone else's technique blindly on your own beard and face. Don't be afraid to experiment with what and how much. You, and your beard, are uniquely you.
My tip or advice is to just let it grow. Many times those patches that you're concerned about will fill in or cover up with time. Accept your beard as it is and do not compare it to others. Realize that professional beards pictures are photoshopped to look fuller just as much as waists are to be smaller. If you look around at normal people, we all have imperfect beards. Amazing tips Dan! You nailed it with this video. I've still yet to try the butters and jellies, but you make it tempting to buy some!
DAN C !!!!!! Class in session!! I have watched alot ( and i mean 100's ) of beard videos and this has got to be the best no nonsense straight to the point in plain english explanation video i have seen yet!!! Phenomenal advise, tips, and knowledge for bearded men at all stages of their journey sir! One tip I personally wish was told to me is.........STAY THE HELL AWAY FROM THE MIRROR!! Dont look at your beard 100x a day its like that old saying " a watched pot never boils " it wont grow overnight it takes time and stop looking at it all day lol!! Love your content--- and i know this is an older video that im just now commenting on but going backwards in your playlist and watching them all👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
I just started growing my beard out about 4 months ago, but i never even heard of beard oils etc. till xmas time. I do find myself looking in the mirror thinking "does it look fuller yet?" lol But honestly i like seeing the quality of the beard with the oil/balm in it. Looks better, nicer, clean and tamed. I can appreciate that and like seeing what I'm spending my money on lol. the products has helped a lot with looking fuller and less patchy which i really appreciate. And im sure my wife likes that it is more tamed not "bummy" looking lol
My #1 tip would be to ditch the shampoos and conditioners for your head hair and buy a beard shampoo. I was skeptical at first, but once I bought a beard shampoo and beard conditioner/co-wash, the game was changed. I also appreciate hearing how others keep their beards “professional” as I am getting my masters degree in biomedical sciences and after that I’m going to physical therapy school. I’ve had some physical therapy school interviews and I’ve done my best to keep a beard and have it presentable for an interview for physical therapy schools. I still keep the beard for interviews, however it’s significantly shorter. I agree with you about the double standard, it sucks. However, I’ve came to the conclusion that Since my beard grows so fast major trims here and there for the sake of following my dream is a sacrifice I’ll make. Plus once I’m in school I can grow it and once I’ve secured my career I can grow it haha. Keep up the good work man!
Great video. Just stumbled onto you channel. I’m about 4 months into my first real attempt at a beard. My problem I think, is impatience. I freak out over every sly away, or little curly hair on my sides that I can’t get to lay down. I’ve tried circle brushes but I guess they’re just not long enough. Any tips on that? Also, when I first started I trimmed my neckline way to high. I’m trying to play catch up, but it’s tough, as I trimmed it a few times before seeing I was doing that wrong. Keep wondering if I should just go real short and kind of start over. It’s so hard to just be patient.
A beard will teach any man patience, if you let it. Time and gravity heal all. My biggest advice would be to let it grow and watch my video on how to apply balm. It really helps in the meantime!
Bossman Is hands down some of the best products I have tried. I'm on my 3rd month of my COVID-19 beard and I can see a big difference in my beard. Great scents, prices and customer service.
Ty!!! I really needed this cause im now starting my beard journey and one tip I would have is don't compare your beard to other beards they're all different just like we're all different!
@@DanCBearded yes sir be happy and proud of what you got and make it the best you can the cleanest and healthiest it can be! and let it grow man Let It Grow
I love these beginner vids! I always learn something new. My biggest tip is "DO NOT TOUCH". Nothing dries out a beard more than excessive touching, and it never goes away no matter how much oil you put on, but you also will be tempted to pick, the worst habit of all. Most
I'm new to beards. I asked a customer at work, who has an awesome beard, what his #1 tip would be. He said "Let it go, to let it grow". He said dont trim it until it's at or near the length you want it. Groom it, oil it, clean it, ect. Just dont trim it. It that good advise?
This is my first time here and wow, am I impressed!! I needed to hear that someone has a preference for a beard that is tight on the sides, neatly trimmed and styled to perfect straightness. You have that perfect pirate look. These are all things to aspire towards. Thanks for posting!!
Great beginner tips, love Bossman Stagecoach. I blow dry on low cool setting, straightens but not too much, takes a few more passes but don't have to worry about heat damage.
The comments are doing a fine job supplementing your video. I can't argue amounts of beard oil for anyone's beard -- my skin is oily and my beard doesn't take much -- but I'm not sure "rubbing it all around and getting it into fingertips" works well because beard oil is intended to absorb quickly. I rub once quickly to spread (sometimes just on fingers) and then on skin and in beard. I think otherwise the beard oil is going into my hands. This is a great video, and one of few with comments not just "worth reading", but "must be read". (Except this one, perhaps).
Gotta Co-wash. Makes the beard feel great. My favorite co-wash out of the 3 I've tried is Co-mmand Co-wash for sure. It's nice and thick and smells awesome. I wish they had that scent in an oil 👍
Dan you are the master. Just discovered your videos as I'm finally deciding to grow a beard on lockdown, you're videos are super useful for a novice like me! Keep it up man!
I have some knowledge on growing a beard now. I always wondered why my beard would itch after so long of not shaving, I used to use hair shampoo on it, but since I've started growing it out I've learned a lot from watching videos. Now I use beard oils and butters and have a pretty good general routine, and it's doing a lot better than I expected. Your videos are great and very helpful, and you've replied to questions I had and pretty fast and I really appreciate that. I actually just ordered a can of uncle donnie's beard butter using a link from another video of yours, and cant wait to try it out. You're awesome and out of many videos I've watched and different people I decided to go with what you say and teach. Also I just subscribed, 😎
Hello, i have black hair and ginger beard on my chin and i grow it like a goatee. I dont use products and my beard doesnt get full straight unless i use hair straightener. I wash them with shampoo when im showering and after that i use hair dryer and a notmal comb to make it as straight as possible. But the roots of my beard are not so strong so it gets ripped off easily. Do these products you mentioned help this, if not what so you recommend for me alongside with oil balm butter jelly?
Dan C Bearded i use what i use for my hair- head and shoulders mint because i cared about flakes more than strength. Ill buy products step by step as i have budget, thanks for the advice

Hey Dan. I recently discovered your channel and I am really loving it! Im starting to grow my beard from short to a more medium one. I got a set of beard shampoo/conditioner, beard oil and beard balm. You mentioned in the video to apply the beard oil and after 5 minutes the beard balm as a daily routine. But what about washing the beard? Do you recommend washing the beard daily?
Hi I am Rolando , I staring a beard and your video is more than instructive is an eye opening on how to grow and keep a great looking beard I can’t wait to put it in to practice! Thanks

Great video Dan, keep it up. 👍👍 If I could suggest one tip... If I'm going out and want to smell as good as possible, I'll reapply some beard oil after I've applied balm. Balm has a tendency to smell a little different if not slightly muted, from beard oil and not quite as pure a scent. My routine is, towel dry, beard oil, balm, blow-dry to style then a few drops of beard oil applied to the outside of the beard and combed in to final style.
I have tried 99% of all beard companies, that makes beard oils and butter s. I have settled on 3 companies that work for me. Beard octane, Mr. Bastards co., and hero's and legends. Its either the oils, or scents,
I love applying beard oil in my comb, the teeth catch the oil and i can slide the comb flat against my skin, like as i'm pushing the oil out of the dropper and swooping it in a fast motion across the comb and its a thin line of oil in the teeth, it work perfect for me, way better than if i use my hands, it feels like i'm not getting much oil to my skin, have also put the dropper in my beard to my skin and sliding my comb flat again my face, works just as good as well
I’ve tried something similar but on a much smaller scale for just my mustache. Basically I just rub a few drops of beard oil into my mustache comb and then style my mustache. (This is just for nourishment for the stache. When I want to “style” my mustache I use wax.). I’ll have to try it for the rest of my beard.
Love the Stagecoach sent of Bossman, that is my before bed treatment. I’m thinking of a butter to switch it up to feel the difference, great video brother.
Dan C Bearded I really like the butter, like you I’m not a huge fan of the greasy feeling with boss man not that I Don’t love it great product. But the butter I’m digging right now.
I have been growing my beard now for 7 months it's funny I just subscribe to your to your channel today sorry about that I been watching your Videos for about 2 months thank you for all the good info
Great video! I was the same way in my beard growing at the start. I had no clue on beard oils, balms, combs or anything. I thought you just let it grow and kept it clean. Then I started watching the ole UA-cams and was shocked. I had no clue it took the care that it needs. But once I got it figured out it has payed off and my beard feels so much better. One tip that I needed at the start was on washing my beard. I thought regular shampoo would work. Then after research I realized I was washing way to much and with the wrong stuff. So now I use a quality beard wash and a good co-wash as well. That helped my beard a lot by just doing the change in wash.
Beard shampoo and cowash make such a difference. To the point where people cannot understand until they experience. Only if they use the best products though. Great tip!
I love this video, and all your other ones too Dan C!! Love your beard, that's my beard goal, to get mine like yours!! Some awesome knowledge being passed on there my man!! 👍🏻👍🏻

What should I use and I want to let it grow for at least 3 months and I would like a nice beard but the itchyness can be annoying
1) quality beard oil in the am
2) quality beard butter at night
3) quality beard wash in the shower

Where does beard wax fits in? Seems like balm.. no?
Wax is more styling and less nourishment, as compared to a balm. Pretty much to solely give you hold
@@DanCBearded so not essential
With ALL due respect…I get better results from using Butter instead of Balm to style my beard for the day. It keeps it nicely in place.
Nothing wrong with that at all! I don’t use either lol all personal preference

At the length you have now how long you been growing?

Hi Dan I’ve been growing my beard for over 2 years now and had to trim it here and there because I work in a kitchen and need to keep neat for service. I never took into consideration how important it was to keep a healthy beard and the routines and products needed in order to achieve a healthy long beard. My question to you is.. am I too far into the journey to reverse the damage that I have created such as split ends and brittleness to restore the beard or am I better off shaving it to a shorter length and starting again? I’ve started to take better care and maintenance in probably the last couple of months but I’m worried it’s too late and the damage can’t be reversed. Thanks for your time!
If there is damage like split ends or damage you can feel, you will need to trim the damage off

Great advice!!! Preach brotha!
DAN C !!!!!! Class in session!!
I have watched alot ( and i mean 100's ) of beard videos and this has got to be the best no nonsense straight to the point in plain english explanation video i have seen yet!!! Phenomenal advise, tips, and knowledge for bearded men at all stages of their journey sir! One tip I personally wish was told to me is.........STAY THE HELL AWAY FROM THE MIRROR!! Dont look at your beard 100x a day its like that old saying " a watched pot never boils " it wont grow overnight it takes time and stop looking at it all day lol!! Love your content--- and i know this is an older video that im just now commenting on but going backwards in your playlist and watching them all👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Thank you for such kind words my friend, seriously! 🙏 that is a huge tip you mentioned! I agree completely
I just started growing my beard out about 4 months ago, but i never even heard of beard oils etc. till xmas time. I do find myself looking in the mirror thinking "does it look fuller yet?" lol But honestly i like seeing the quality of the beard with the oil/balm in it. Looks better, nicer, clean and tamed. I can appreciate that and like seeing what I'm spending my money on lol. the products has helped a lot with looking fuller and less patchy which i really appreciate. And im sure my wife likes that it is more tamed not "bummy" looking lol
Please help me iam no beard
Sir please
This is a great video man. I’ve still never tried a beard butter.
1 tip. Put down the razor and let nature run its course.
Yesss! I had to learn that with my neckline. I wanted to shave my neckline way too high. Just needed to learn to put the razor down. Thanks Snake!!
Dan C Bearded same thing I did. I have some pictures of me with the rediculous face beard lol. I keep them around so I never forget.
@@marcushart4883 same lol literally same

@@DanCBearded why thank you! We have a big day tomorrow. Go 🍀
@@aidanbradypop 👀👀 nervous face
My #1 tip would be to ditch the shampoos and conditioners for your head hair and buy a beard shampoo. I was skeptical at first, but once I bought a beard shampoo and beard conditioner/co-wash, the game was changed. I also appreciate hearing how others keep their beards “professional” as I am getting my masters degree in biomedical sciences and after that I’m going to physical therapy school. I’ve had some physical therapy school interviews and I’ve done my best to keep a beard and have it presentable for an interview for physical therapy schools. I still keep the beard for interviews, however it’s significantly shorter. I agree with you about the double standard, it sucks. However, I’ve came to the conclusion that Since my beard grows so fast major trims here and there for the sake of following my dream is a sacrifice I’ll make. Plus once I’m in school I can grow it and once I’ve secured my career I can grow it haha. Keep up the good work man!
Thanks for the comment brotha!!
Great video. Just stumbled onto you channel. I’m about 4 months into my first real attempt at a beard. My problem I think, is impatience. I freak out over every sly away, or little curly hair on my sides that I can’t get to lay down. I’ve tried circle brushes but I guess they’re just not long enough. Any tips on that? Also, when I first started I trimmed my neckline way to high. I’m trying to play catch up, but it’s tough, as I trimmed it a few times before seeing I was doing that wrong. Keep wondering if I should just go real short and kind of start over. It’s so hard to just be patient.
A beard will teach any man patience, if you let it. Time and gravity heal all. My biggest advice would be to let it grow and watch my video on how to apply balm. It really helps in the meantime!
Bossman Is hands down some of the best products I have tried. I'm on my 3rd month of my COVID-19 beard and I can see a big difference in my beard. Great scents, prices and customer service.
Awesome!
Ty!!! I really needed this cause im now starting my beard journey and one tip I would have is don't compare your beard to other beards they're all different just like we're all different!
Hugeee tip rigut there my man, say it again louder! Haha seriously though, that is key. Listen to this man people!!
@@DanCBearded yes sir be happy and proud of what you got and make it the best you can the cleanest and healthiest it can be! and let it grow man Let It Grow
@@clintr.34 absolutely! And always remember to watch all of Dan C Bearded's videos lol that helps the beard
I love these beginner vids! I always learn something new. My biggest tip is "DO NOT TOUCH". Nothing dries out a beard more than excessive touching, and it never goes away no matter how much oil you put on, but you also will be tempted to pick, the worst habit of all. Most
I agree, awesome tip! It is so hard to learn to leave tour beard alone. I still do it with my mustache, but I am working on it.
Intro song???
I have not been in bearding that long but you taught me about beard jelly in this video. Never knew it existed. Thanks Teacher!
You’re welcome!
I'm new to beards. I asked a customer at work, who has an awesome beard, what his #1 tip would be. He said "Let it go, to let it grow". He said dont trim it until it's at or near the length you want it. Groom it, oil it, clean it, ect. Just dont trim it. It that good advise?
PErfect advice!
So, say you only use beard oil and don't use the butter and the other stuff, Are you cheaping your beard, Or is that ok?
The two most important products would be beard oil and beard wash. You can have a healthy beard with those two
This is my first time here and wow, am I impressed!! I needed to hear that someone has a preference for a beard that is tight on the sides, neatly trimmed and styled to perfect straightness. You have that perfect pirate look. These are all things to aspire towards. Thanks for posting!!
Thanks brotha! I rock it much longer now but love all spots in the journey from my beard
How do you blow your nose without getting in into your moustache?
Cup the tissue around the nose and lean forward/down
What do you think about using a heat bush? I have the Aberlite Pro where I have control of the heat in the bush.
I use the same one daily, I love it!
Hi. Bro i didnt have beard on my face but i have small hair folicals on my face wat i want todo to grow the beard
Just give it time my friend!
Great beginner tips, love Bossman Stagecoach. I blow dry on low cool setting, straightens but not too much, takes a few more passes but don't have to worry about heat damage.
I love using the low cold setting after my initial blow drying, it really is nice for styling!
New to the channel, definitely hoping to impress my wife with using your beard tips
Awesome! Be sure to check out some more recent videos 👊
Ok so you use oil & balm in am
Do you wash before putting butter at night. ?
I no longer use balm, but when I did I would try to wash out my balm before butter. At the very least a thorough rinse
The comments are doing a fine job supplementing your video. I can't argue amounts of beard oil for anyone's beard -- my skin is oily and my beard doesn't take much -- but I'm not sure "rubbing it all around and getting it into fingertips" works well because beard oil is intended to absorb quickly. I rub once quickly to spread (sometimes just on fingers) and then on skin and in beard. I think otherwise the beard oil is going into my hands. This is a great video, and one of few with comments not just "worth reading", but "must be read". (Except this one, perhaps).
I agree 💯%! The comments are better than the actual video here lol all about the community! Thank you for adding to that, always! 🙏
Should I trim a couple times to let the under beard catch up or just let it be ?
Yes, I do recommend trims along the way
Gotta Co-wash. Makes the beard feel great. My favorite co-wash out of the 3 I've tried is Co-mmand Co-wash for sure. It's nice and thick and smells awesome. I wish they had that scent in an oil 👍
Dan C - You can at night use oil & beard butter at night ?
Yup!
Don’t neglect your moustache or it will end up in your mouth while eating or kissing your wife 😘
Very true!
Dan you are the master. Just discovered your videos as I'm finally deciding to grow a beard on lockdown, you're videos are super useful for a novice like me! Keep it up man!
Thank you brotha!!
I have some knowledge on growing a beard now. I always wondered why my beard would itch after so long of not shaving, I used to use hair shampoo on it, but since I've started growing it out I've learned a lot from watching videos. Now I use beard oils and butters and have a pretty good general routine, and it's doing a lot better than I expected. Your videos are great and very helpful, and you've replied to questions I had and pretty fast and I really appreciate that. I actually just ordered a can of uncle donnie's beard butter using a link from another video of yours, and cant wait to try it out. You're awesome and out of many videos I've watched and different people I decided to go with what you say and teach. Also I just subscribed, 😎
Thank you brotha, I really appreciate that!
Hello, i have black hair and ginger beard on my chin and i grow it like a goatee. I dont use products and my beard doesnt get full straight unless i use hair straightener. I wash them with shampoo when im showering and after that i use hair dryer and a notmal comb to make it as straight as possible. But the roots of my beard are not so strong so it gets ripped off easily. Do these products you mentioned help this, if not what so you recommend for me alongside with oil balm butter jelly?
A good shampoo and cowash will certinaly help with the roots. I lose less hairs since I have been using those. For sure use these!
Dan C Bearded i use what i use for my hair- head and shoulders mint because i cared about flakes more than strength. Ill buy products step by step as i have budget, thanks for the advice
@@hatersbby absolutely! Let me know if you have any other questions!

Hey Dan. I recently discovered your channel and I am really loving it! Im starting to grow my beard from short to a more medium one. I got a set of beard shampoo/conditioner, beard oil and beard balm. You mentioned in the video to apply the beard oil and after 5 minutes the beard balm as a daily routine. But what about washing the beard? Do you recommend washing the beard daily?
1000 subscriber GAW BAHAHA. Bro you grew fast. So awesome.

3 droppers works great for me.
3 full glass droppers or drops?
@@DanCBearded sometimes 3 full droppers usually 2 depends on how dry or thirsty beard is .
@@beardedknight3239 love it!! Dropper on!
Great video Dan, keep it up. 👍👍
If I could suggest one tip...
If I'm going out and want to smell as good as possible, I'll reapply some beard oil after I've applied balm. Balm has a tendency to smell a little different if not slightly muted, from beard oil and not quite as pure a scent.
My routine is, towel dry, beard oil, balm, blow-dry to style then a few drops of beard oil
applied to the outside of the beard and combed in to final style.
Great tip! Thanks for helping out!
I have tried 99% of all beard companies, that makes beard oils and butter s. I have settled on 3 companies that work for me. Beard octane, Mr. Bastards co., and hero's and legends. Its either the oils, or scents,
I love applying beard oil in my comb, the teeth catch the oil and i can slide the comb flat against my skin, like as i'm pushing the oil out of the dropper and swooping it in a fast motion across the comb and its a thin line of oil in the teeth, it work perfect for me, way better than if i use my hands, it feels like i'm not getting much oil to my skin, have also put the dropper in my beard to my skin and sliding my comb flat again my face, works just as good as well
I am going to have to give this a try, thanks Jake!
I’ve tried something similar but on a much smaller scale for just my mustache. Basically I just rub a few drops of beard oil into my mustache comb and then style my mustache. (This is just for nourishment for the stache. When I want to “style” my mustache I use wax.).
I’ll have to try it for the rest of my beard.
Love the Stagecoach sent of Bossman, that is my before bed treatment. I’m thinking of a butter to switch it up to feel the difference, great video brother.
Yes, give butter a run! Let me know what you think once you do. I think you will love the switch up. Mix a night rotation between jelly and butter.
Dan C Bearded I really like the butter, like you I’m not a huge fan of the greasy feeling with boss man not that I
Don’t love it great product. But the butter I’m digging right now.
I have been growing my beard now for 7 months it's funny I just subscribe to your to your channel today sorry about that I been watching your Videos for about 2 months thank you for all the good info

Dude that's a killer hat! where can I get one?
This one is from the luxurious bastard 👊
@@DanCBearded Thanks bud!
Michael Scott would ask her to shave... just saying. Love you videos Dan C!
My only tip would be to not snack on super glue from the tube. One drip in the beard and you have to cut out whole clumps. Definitely use a spoon.
Spork acceptable?
Good tips bro!
Hey thank you! There are sooo many, but these ones seem to come up often in questions and in my own experience.
I’m in the market for a cool hat Dan, can you tell me where you got the one in this video, THANKS.
This is from the luxurious bastard
@@DanCBearded wow your right on it, 😊 Thank You, I’m going for it.👍
Got the gray off center logo.👍 all they had left..
Awesome 👊
Great video! I was the same way in my beard growing at the start. I had no clue on beard oils, balms, combs or anything. I thought you just let it grow and kept it clean. Then I started watching the ole UA-cams and was shocked. I had no clue it took the care that it needs. But once I got it figured out it has payed off and my beard feels so much better.
One tip that I needed at the start was on washing my beard. I thought regular shampoo would work. Then after research I realized I was washing way to much and with the wrong stuff. So now I use a quality beard wash and a good co-wash as well. That helped my beard a lot by just doing the change in wash.
Beard shampoo and cowash make such a difference. To the point where people cannot understand until they experience. Only if they use the best products though. Great tip!
Excellent review....especially for new beard growers like myself. Thanks and keep up the great reviews. Love the channel.
Love your comments, sorry I missed them the last couple days!
What is the soap solution you use to cleanyour boars hair brush and how often do you clean it
What should I do I recently just clean shaved to restart and to regrow my beard what would be the things I should be doing in the first weeks??
Get beard oil on your skin and drink 1 gallon of water a day!
I love this video, and all your other ones too Dan C!! Love your beard, that's my beard goal, to get mine like yours!! Some awesome knowledge being passed on there my man!! 👍🏻👍🏻
Thanks brotha!
I think the big deal with the Kent Combs is, they dont absorb the oils and scents like a wooden comb would
That is for sure a great benefit! I would say the strength and smooth cut is the biggest benefit!
