So picture this. The year was 1987, and I was 11 years old, watching MTV. It was the first time I saw George Michael. He was playing his guitar in his super slim-fit jeans. He wore his leather jacket and was doing all kinds of sexy moves. He had on sunglasses, and his hair was perfection. But the one thing that really drew me in and caught my attention was his beard. I had never seen anything like it. It was perfect!
From that moment, I knew I would someday rock the George Michael designer stubble from that moment. Fast forward a few more years, and here we are today. I'm doing a grooming tutorial to show you some of men's biggest mistakes when rocking short stubble beards.
Biggest short stubble beard blunders
Going too short is the biggest mistake that I see. It's the difference between a 5 o'clock shadow and a 10-day stubble. There's a big difference between 2 mm, 3 mm, 4 mm, and 5 mm. 5 mm is the max for a short stubble beard. For it to look its best, make sure you're using a great tool that has the flexibility to give you what you're looking for. The only tool I use and what I recommend is the Brio 2.0. 10-day stubble is scientifically proven to be the most attractive beard length, with studies from thousands of women.
The next mistake is not fading and blending your beard into your sideburns. You look stupid when there's a distinct line between your beard and your hair. I recommend going over your hair to maintain that specific length.
Not detailing the boundaries properly is a mistake I see many guys making. Overly carving or shaping the beard too thin will make you look like a douche. Also, don't let it grow up your face or down your neck; you will look like a savage. Learn to define the boundaries properly, which I demonstrate. I also demonstrate how to shave correctly underneath your chin. The proper boundary will frame your face and make your beard look the best it can be, and a proper shaving of the jaw doesn't make it look weak.
Another mistake is neglecting the crook of your nose, leaving long hair.
Failing to edge is another issue. Edge along your lip and make sure that your hair isn't growing down into your lip which is another huge mistake. Nobody wants a kiss with a mouthful of fuzz. Edge around your ear to ensure that you keep it clean and tidy in between haircuts.
Regarding the soul patch, clean up stray, straggler hairs. Give it a bit of a diamond dimension or triangle. It will draw the eye down to help strengthen your chin. - Навчання та стиль

Is this trimmer water proof or shower safe? Looking for a trimmer I can use in the shower to clean the blade while I use it
How do I get it in the uk?
these are the best trimmers
I bought this trimmer right b4 seeing your video so I didn't get the free zero blade . I emailed Brio about your video and they sent me a Free zero blade just for mentioning this video. Thanks Alpha !
@@kylehartley3822 no it's not water proof . Meridian Trimmer is a good waterproof trimmer w ceramic blade
I hope all my brothers watching this level up financially mentally and physically
Thanks homie you too
YES 🙌
Thanks, same to you
You too bro beans
👊🏻 You too brother
I grew up without a father figure in my life. I’ve recently been able to grow a beard so these videos help a lot. Thanks a lot Alpha
Same mate❤️ fatherless
Be the best dad you can be to your kids.
1. Going too short (shoot for 5 mm)
2. Not blending your beard and your side burns
3. No proper boundaries
4. wrong carving underneath the chin
5. Curving lines, no sharp angles
6. neglect stray hairs at nose and lips
Thx summary guy..🤙⚡
Nice summary! And speaking of “Facial Hair…”
If you’re a dude (and you’re able to grow a beard - Lol), and you want to start attracting women to no end - grow a heavy stubble.
If you’re used to shaving your beard every day, just let it grow for 10 days, and see what happens.
I bet you’ll start getting some compliments, because women see this as a sign of maturity, masculinity, and not to mention - dominance.
And you know how most women feel about dominant men!
Anyway, that’s my two cents.

7. Don't shave the beard after shaving balls
Yoo Markus my guy, thx
Thanks
as a teen that grows too much hair I am greatful to you
You’re always out to help people.I appreciate that Alpha.Keep being great man👊🏾
Cause I gotta have faith! I'm loving the Brio. Have had it now for a few months now and it's still fully charged pretty much for the quick grooming I do every week or so. Havent charged it yet and you can feel it's powerful. Took a while to find the mm length with different guards and micro adjustments than what I had before. Would definitely recommend.
Great video and thanks for recommending excellent gear!
I definitely agree, the Brio is the best I've used ever.
It was over 12 years ago when I first subscribed and saw your first beard video haha You talked bit faster on this video, the instructions on the first video were easier to follow 😃 Good to see you again! ✌️
Thanks Aaron. I recently picked up that trimmer the last time you did a promo. Much appreciated. I love this thing. Highly recommend it to everyone 👍 blessings from Colorado 🤙 btw, I'll be moving to Georgia here soon. Might have to hit that salon you go to and get a proper cut.
I knew it! I always thought your style was inspired by George Michael. It makes so much sense!
I bought a Brio on your recommendation. Thing is AMAZING. I've had it like 3 years, I use it regularly. I've charged it like 4 times. Battery lasts forever.
I got one and it’s absolute garbage.
I got one years ago and it is definitely better than what I used to use. What would you recommend instead?
Hey Alpha, So glad you still have The Legend that is GEORGE MICHAEL in mind ❤️ 😎 The best music artist that Britain has produced 👌 His Stubble, His Hair, The Aviators, The Leather Biker Jacket, The Distressed Jeans and the Metal Toe Cap Boots. Without a shadow of doubt the original stud look. And let's not forget that voice and his songs 🤗
When I see you on your channel I see alot of George Michae'sl features in you.
Keep Rockin' Fella 👍
Love these videos. I feel like I never get my bread right, haha. Also, I have that product. It’s a great shaving tool.
I use a cheap beard trimmer with the 5mm adaptor, first i use the trimmer faced upwards then i use it faced down to cut extra lenght it gets me something between 3 and 5mm as i prefer that way it's the sweet spot for me look handsome AF.
Alpha is like the big brother we never had
I find that the Brio comb attachments are pulling my folicals. I switched from Brio to Philips One Blade to maintain my beard and works better for me.
Awesome video. About to have a 5mm beard. Excited to not shave anymore, but glad I’ll look sexy lol. Thank you for the tips! I’m gonna order a Brio 😊
Alpha Gang💪
Great Content🐐
Thanks! I’m new at growing a beard and you helped me a lot
Thank you!!! I needed these tips lol
Thanks for this video man!
Always great advice!
My man gonna burst a vain tryna help me😂 gotta love alpha m💪🏼 thanks bro fr!
Alpha I been using Brio's for 4 years now , the battery life and the quality build is great , However the Guards and attachments are very flimsy, they don't stay firm and solid in place and often they fall off, please use your magic influence and maybe they will listen to your advice and improve this great product, Thanks
Interesting to the methods of others. Thanks for the video
I remember the GM faith video as well as a teenager ,it had a big impact on me as well that look rocked ...
I do the george michael stubble, plus leather jacket, cross earring and aviator look when its a bit colder and I rock the sht out of it.
Cause ya gotta have Faith!
Useful video. Thank you.
Some Guys really enjoy this style. Hey Rock what you got and makes you happy.
You ain't lying George Michael is what inspired me on the perfect stubble beard..I been saying it for years. Since I was a kid I was like how get a beard like that I need it..dude had the look. The hair gods blessed him..but you forgot 1 other stubble legend that impacted millions.. Don Johnson!
That was Good. Great energy
Hey Alpha i think the Ray Ban Outdoorsman sunglasses will suit you soooo good
Love you bro ....keep working
Even though I hate having a beard, this will come in handy if I'm ever open-minded about having one.
I can’t even remember the last time I used a disposable razor 😂
Good info Alpha, you should grow a beardstache and do a video tutorial
Thanks my dawg
Awesome and interesting study, I would personally go with clean shaven for best appearance but oh well
Love your videos, and just bought one! Good luck with the Marni team up!
I just got my brio now im here 😂
Great advice! Thank you. Shaver- don't mess around with this thing (yet he has one)
Thank you Top G
I have a stubble beard from many years since I find it looks better than totally shaved but better than a full beard, which I only let grow once ten years ago. My stubble beard is probably shorter than yours maybe just 3 millimeters but lately I’m starting to grow beard again but I’m not sure about that. My chin and mustaches are good full looking but my jaws and chick they still look sparse and thin to me, not necessarily patchy. So my question, let my beard grow a couple of more weeks is going to make my beard fuller or it will looks still sparse or even worst than now?
sick beard, silky bathroom...just killing it!
Dude everybody has own style. Some peoples likes 3mm and they are looking good in that beard.
Everyone grows at different rates. 10 days for my dad is way more than mine. My 10 day is way more than my brother. It's all genetics and hormones.
Alpha: what’s the watch you’re wearing? Sub with black dial or bluesy?
When I use the Zero Blade, it seems like I'm scraping my skin. I put the aftershave on and it burns.
For us bald guys, do you still recommend the 'fade' sideburn?
I personaly run a ten day stubble down into a chin beard,
Looks sweet, have been complmented on it.
Just curious, have you tried a clean shave? I guess you'll look great with it.
Lifesaver!
Such stressful vibes lol
Can you please make a video about the cheeks? How and where are the boundaries there?
I can't grow facial hair like that, so I just focus on what I already have
I prefer the 3mm but 5 looks good as well.
I do 2 mm,i think 2 and 3 look more crisp imo
Where'd you get the fitted tee bro? Looking for some good fitting tees but can't find the right one
I just have to lmao om this guy because he is spitting facts, but he is doing it on a aggressive way like "PLEASE THINK ABOUT. HOW MUCH I HAVE SAID THAT." and thats funny
For me, it was Don Johnson's stubble in Miami Vice.
10 days is beyond stubble for me. You get I to actual short beard territory.
keep going
@@HealthyBearded lol not for me. Tried that bf. My face shape is idea at stubble or even lower.
rpm meter on the trimmer.. super useful stuff
I was thinking exactly of the George Michael look before you mentioned it!
Thanks dad
How does this rule applies to partial or complete bald guy? Thanks.
Tiege Hanley ball powder or Pete and Pedro ball powder?
What scares me is I agree with 99.5 percent of everything you present
alpha m. must be bringing in the dough. Look at the solid gold Rolex he wearing.
Can you color stubble or does it have to reach a certain length before you can?
My issue is that my chin and jawline my beard grows very thick but on my cheeks not so much
Look at how Johnny Depp/Robert Downey Jr rocks it, they both got similar facial hair growth.. if you can grow a bit of a mustache of course
Under my chin do I go up with the trimmer or down?
I want a stubble beard but I don’t want to create waves
I have this but it’s a dog clippers… same style lol
This is insane! I’m literally growing out a stubble beard !
What about shaving my junk . I have sensitive skin . .
there , I always knick something .I have a Phillips Norelco .
True Alfa lol
My beerd doesnt go into my hairline, and creates a "Stupid line", beerd under lower lip, grows independantly as a small line and my mustche doesnt connect with rest of facial hair. Very generalized tips.
I love my manscaped lawnmower 4.0 💪👍
I have to grow my beard for 16 days in order to get that “10 day stubble”
My problem is the cheek line of my beard is not that clear, i mean i have so much beard that i cannot leave the cheek line naturally, i have to clean it and it looks like a fake beard lmao how do i fix that?
I personally Rock the 3mm
Hi alpha I love your stuff I would like to know if you do shipping to UK
uk.briopg.com/ yes! Here's our UK store.
Is this trimmer available in the UK?
WHY ARE YOU YELLING
I know. The baby's asleep
Alpha make video for patchy beard my beard is patchy .
Does the 10 Day Rule also apply to older men with Grey beards who are hoping to attract a younger woman; or would that just make them look too old, and scruffy?
If you're above 40 I'd say go clean shaven. The only way a beard can look good at all is if it is dark
@@rad9541 That's what I figured lol. Although I don't think having just a moustache wouldn't be too bad.
Liked 💯👍
I'm 18 and I have a beard but it takes me a whole month to get to 10 day stubble does anyone know why? Please help me
You can grow a full beard at eighteen!!
Consider yourself gifted bro.
Sounds like you've got good beard genes. Wait a few more years, you'll rock it.
I can't remember my own experience, but my nephew couldn't really get anything going regarding notable facial hair until he reached his early 20's. Now aged 30, he has a decent 'operator style' beard. I know some people or particular races will experience minimum growth their entire life, but I guess it's not always linear or predictable. Bear with it.
What about the sideburns if u shave your head?
They keep saying being women is so hard while styling your beared is the real hard shit 😂😂
25 years old , 200lbs 5’10 and fairly ripped …. But I cannot grow a beard. Biotin minoxidil nada it is so demoralising going about with a baby face
This guy is like the dad i never had
The Brio cut my neck to shreds! the Braun 5514 that you recommended is still the best!
Braun all the way. Not a fan of different size attachments. He brau has an adjustable dial that works wonders

Damn , I just bought a new trimmer
You showed how to do the fade on the side burns if you have longer hair. What if you shave your head?
I sent you a message. Thank you
When trimming, I've stopped going against the grain
Hey guys, Alpha has mentioned a beard brush before in his videos. Does this help growing out your beard, even if it is 5-6mm or less? Or is brushes only for longer more full beard? :)
I feel like it could help growing out more beard, in terms of stimulating blood flow etc.
Are you talking about the derma roller ? if so....yes it helped me grow a beard
It definitely is useful when trying to grow a longer beard because during the growing stages the hair will Sapp all the oils and may cause itching and dry skin. (beard oils are useful too).
The blood flow thing might help even with shorter beards and you should be able to "train" your beard into growing a certain direction the same you can do with the hair on your scalp.
The derma roller the other guy was talking about is a step further and needles your face. It is used usually on the scalp but some people found it works well on beards too, particularly along with some medication, but I never tried it.
Mpmd talks about it iirc, and there's a big channel all about beards that you might find useful, beard brand iirc, not sure rn.
It's for longer beards..
Alpha, my girl complained that when I kiss her, that my mustache pricks her top lip. Any suggestions?
??
Just title the video Beardscape with zero blade at this point 😂
I have no beard but im gonna buy that machine
While beards are great. I am kinda digging not having one. Because it seems every single guy now has one. Plus I still have a baby face. So I look 10yrs younger not having a beard. And I was growing a beard before it was normal. We should change both our haircut and facial hair. At least every 10yrs. Hair is no different than clothes. You got to change it as you age
