So I have been trying this method daily since watching this video and had to come back to comment. I will say that watching the video I was skeptical, only because it doesn't look like you are applying enough balm. But I was wrong, don't tell my wife, and this method works very well. It is now part of my daily routine. Thanks for sharing.
That is admirable how you mention your wedding ring in several of your videos, considering we live in a time where most men (and women's) integrity is questionable at best. I too tip my hat to you, sir lol.
Josh O: I agree with the comment 100%. Let me say that I think you have to start with a great beard-then grooming it the right way will yield the terrific results that Dan gets. My beard is curly, and shoots out in all directions, so that when I follow Dan’s instructions, I get a very nicely hydrated, oiled and balmed beard with curly hair that shoots out in all directions. Sigh. You’ve got to start with the right kind of beard, and I’ve pretty well accepted that in my case, what you see is what you get
I know I’m a tad late to your videos, I’m just getting into this whole hobby honestly, but you have already taught me so much. I go to do my daily beard routine and listen to your videos while I do what I do. Absolutely love your videos! Thank you
Thank you Dan C really worked well for me, now that my beard is longer and thicker now days ,I'm 21 so it grows more and more everyday , but I always watch you an really appreciate the great advice you give.I lean more everyday from you .Thank you
I like this method... when I go throughout it loos to greasy. The whole point of me ever doing Balm is like you said, "to LOCK in my style for the day". Thanks my friend!
Dan C - “Teach away” my friend. This video came just in time and is exactly what I needed to not give up! I am on week six for growing my beard and I have these rouge hairs that won’t lie down. In the past I have cut my beard back because I didn’t know how to manage it. Of course, that was several years ago and long before RUclips.
I have just picked up my first beard balm. First time to try it and I loved it today! All whits beard and it is 8”s now. I will be using I more now that I tried it! Thanks Dan!
I'm going to try this technique out. I'm pretty knew to the game and I've been following your tips since my begining. Lots of people at my job have beards but I've noticed that lately I'm the one who's been getting the compliments. People are now asking me about "my" beard routine . Even guys who've had beards longer than me. I don't take credit for anything. I'm sure to give them the You Tube link to the master Dan C Bearded. Thanks Dan.
Your guidance is really helping my beard come along nicely I'm only 2 months in and its full healthy and about 3 inches in length. Yours looks incredible cant wait till mine is like that but I want it about 50% longer.
I’ve been waiting for this video. I had a good idea of your method but have had mixed success styling my beard this way. Maybe it has more to do with length, or the grey/white hair that I have, but it seems my beard has a mind of its own. Thanks for the video and all of your great tips! 👍🏻
Dan the man great video this was one of the best informative videos ever !! I know early on I put in like oil but I remember you tell me how to did it a while back and I started to do it that way you showing and it was amazing and tbh , I didn’t do it as often as I like . Those 5am mornings sometimes make it hard but I need to do it this way more often !! Thanks my brotha
New sub! Great content. I'll definitely be using this technique from now on. My beard isn't as long as yours (I'm only 17) but this is certainly going to help me maintain mine better
Love it brother!!!almost the exact way I do it except sometimes I just use a butter for hold instead of balm put apply it the same way just outside...because I do wash and butter at nighttime...because of the trusted teacher's advice....changed my beard game brotha!!!! I am forever grateful to you 🤘🧔🤘....
Have been using the honest amish oils and balm it seems like the balm really softens my beard nicely . I am new to beard products and find your videos helpful thanks for all the info 👍
Dan - another great video While I apply beard balm throughout my beard, I start and finish on the outside as you do, and I feel like I've gotten pretty decent results Keep up the great content!
Good video! This is exactly how I do it. I have a very similar morning beard routine to you, just minus the blow drying. Shower (water only most days, only wash beard twice per week), towel dry, comb, wait a few min, towel dry again, comb again, apply oil making sure to rub into skin and all throughout beard, boars hair brush (favorite part because it feels so good lol), wait a few minutes, apply balm to outer layer of beard exactly as you showed here. Works great for me, but maybe not for others. That is one of the coolest things about beards... everyone's beard is different and everyone may have their own "best practices" for how to maintain and style theirs! I still have yet to try co-washing or your night time routine... need to get on that.
This is exactly how I use my balm. Glad I’m doing it “right.” Works perfectly. I’ve even used my boars hair brush after application for a few light passes.
@@DanCBearded I’ll add this, I normally only use a balm if I’m going to work or for date nights, usually after I straighten. Though I’ve used it without straightening and I’ve found that my beard appears fuller (more full?) throughout the day vs just using my oils.
Wow!!! Ive been using twice as much as you and running it through, and too be honest never liked the way it felt and have more oil only days then not! Cannot wait till tomorrow to apply in this new technique !!! Again info we crave and are thrilled to receive!!
I usually apply my balm like I do the oil but I will definitely give this application a try, especially since I’m at the 5 month mark now and need to focus on styling too
I find that my beard is at a really awkward stage. It's about 4 inches, but the sides are not growing as quickly as the front, and it's a gray beard (more salt than pepper). The side hairs want to stick out on the one side of my beard and applying just to the outside of the beard doesn't seem to hold them in place yet. I find that I still need to apply the balm to the underneath hairs on the sides to aid in the styling and to help me resist the urge to cut away the fly-aways. Once they are long enough, I'll switch to the outside coat of Balm. Thanks for your most excellent coaching on all things beard.
Your video has helped me out alot thanks man. I've been trying g this method and it works out a lot better for me. I wait at least 10 mins or so after I putt my oil in the the balm
Another awesome video, Dan. Have you made any videos regarding Woody's beard balm? I'm curious if you like it. I've had a beard for a long time, but your tips are a game changer. Ill try this one out. Wishing you continued success.
Mine isn't as long as yours but I only put balm on the outside to style and hold as well. Works great for me. Great Advice keep up the great work my friend
Yes sir... always oil under and balm to style and hold on the surface. I do reapply but it may be due to the coarseness of my grey/white that just starts to kind of push out the density over the course of the day. I’ve started actually combining just a little balm and oil together for a work through application when I reapply late afternoon and early evening. On busy evenings due to family and life I can even skip a nighttime routine and the beard stays fresh overnight from that application
Awesome Dan! I always end with that technique, though I do apply the balm to the rest of my beard prior to that. Going to try strictly applying to the outside now. Thank you sir!
Would like to see more of these how to vids. Great vid Dan. Teaching and Preaching!!! Are you using balm everyday now? Thanks buddy keep up the great work!!
I have tried this & it works for me at night. I shower at night so this is perfect. However, I find the opposite way works best for me in the morning. Balm first, then oil on top of that applied about an hour or so after the oil. I wake up super early & go to work so I don’t have much time for a morning routine. I just find that one way works best in the morning & another way works best in the evening. Keep up the great work & cheers to 2019!!
Very interesting Jason! Each beard is different, so I bet that is awesome for your beard! Just makes sure the oil is getting to the skin after you have balm on, because that is the purpose of the oil
I personally go in first with oil and then apply butter throughout the beard. No balm. My beard is at the 2.5 month stage right now, I think once I get another month or two on it I’ll start using balm. Don’t really need as much hold right now!
I did so this method in my morning routine video so a lot of people subconsciously made the switch after watching that video lol but I thought it deserved its own dedicated video. Glad we have the same method 👊
This is probably the best place to ask... how important is it to my beats health? I always buy oil and balm together, but I'm starting to not like the feeling of the balm at the middle of the work day. I've been toying the idea of oil only, especially with jelly.
I do basically the same with the exception of going back with the hair dryer set to cool. Then I add a tad more oil just for the smell. But with that said, my beard has a tad more curls and a little shorter so it doesn't lay down quite as nice as yours.
Hey Dan that is the method I started with. To me balm was like wax-for hold. But the local beard guy I was talking to suggested I start with balm and finish with oil. He said that most dilute balm by already having oil in hands.
I think a dollop is a precise unit of measurement lol. Haven't tried styling with balm like that but I think I'll give it a shot. Thanks for the video trusted teacher.
I would say my beard is at or almost at the length of yours in this video. I know you stopped using balm as the beard has grown. I have these constant flyaways by the end of the day so wanted a refresh on balm application. I’m happy to have found this one from a couple years ago. I will try this method for a while, use the correct amount (was using too little), and wait until after I am dressed to balm it up. Only question, does the beard need to be damp while applying balm? But he time I dress it’s almost dry. Thanks and much love and respect as always.
Have you ever done a review on the beard Club products? I've been doing my beard balm like I'm inside all over looking forward to trying in the morning the new method I'm sure it'll be great
Been doing this for a few months now. I used to only use oil. But with the balm it most certainly helps alot with the stray hairs. Still trying to learn how to use the mustache wax for the curly mustache look, but it seems like one side has grown slightly a little thicker than the other...
Call it the "Dan C Beard Helmet Technique" with the balm being applied like a helmet to the outer edges of the beard. I actually do my beard the same way, but minus the oil. I like to only have to apply one product at a time, I am a night shower person so I apply my oil at night, then morning I wash up and this dampens the beard then I apply the beard balm the same as you concentrating mostly on the corners as I too have a thick bushy curly beard. Yup last all day for me as well, and this means the balm, or some times I will just use oil in the am on a light day, better be able to cut the mustard all day or it's out! Have a suggestion for a new try , "Huckstle" a new start up from Ohio they have a product called multi- balm for use on your beard, skin, hair, even your wife could use. High quality ingredients some unique scents, I'm using a OUD/ Teak wood wow! I like the product, I have not tried the oil at this point. No affiliation, just one brother to another recommending a nice product. Oh ya the price seems a bit high but you receive almost 4 oz in a quality glass jar. I will give the bit of oil to the skin a try thanks again for quality informative videos, carry on!
Sir I feel bad for spamming questions knowing you make an effort to reply to most of your viewers, but given that you're a teacher we can trust, here goes nothing: Is using beard balm everyday problematic if you don't wash your beard with a beard wash everyday? In the sense that it will prevent other products from being absorbed due to buildup? Is a wash with just water good enough to prevent any problems? I assume that when people mention not washing your beard everyday mean not washing your beard with beard wash everyday, where washing with just water is okay?
I do recommend washing your beard after every beard balm day. Rinsing with water doesn’t do enough I do actually recommend washing daily. Just need the right wash!
Dan, what a revelation fella. I actually do this in part but, I also run the balm through like other 99% as you say. Will definitely try this method.......and Dan, I have a name for this method........'The Dan c stroke'
My beard's no way near as long as yours, could I email you a picture because I'm pretty unsure of what to do with it. I'm capable of growing a large beard but I'm trying to keep it short, last night I tried trimming the sides down with a guard on my shaver and I regret it lol. P.S just wanted to say that I get all my advice from this channel, it definitely helps. There's just so much information out there that I didn't know where to start, but thankfully this channel provides all of that with concise and informative videos, so keep it up 👍
I thought beard balm was useful for not only styling and moisturizing your beard, but also for sealing the oil into your skin by adding a protective layer. I’m surprised you don’t get it into your skin. Glad this method works for you though, still struggling with dry skin lol.
Great tips sir 👌 I have always used this method as I found it kept my thick beard styled for longer. The usual method could be better for thin or patchy beards as it may provide more 'body' to each hair and make the beard appear fuller?✌
I would have to disagree, I think putting it throughout makes the hair stick together and look thinner. That is the main reason I go to this method! I have never had a thin beard lol so I cannot say, but the other method does make my beard thinner
@@DanCBearded I experienced the opposite! It made my beard stick out and more bushier as if my hair was thicker! Maybe it was the balm or the quantity used? Like you say every beard is different!
I apply balm in the same manner, but prefer a stiff balm. Have you ever done research on how beard hair compares to head hair? There has to be a difference in the two hairs shape, or how they form? Round vs flat shape? I don't know but I bet the trusted teacher might know. Have a good day!
@@DanCBearded Awesome I guessed you have done the research. I remember a few things from biology class, and hairs do have different shapes etc. I look forward to you having a class, on this subject, for all of us. 🏆

That is admirable how you mention your wedding ring in several of your videos, considering we live in a time where most men (and women's) integrity is questionable at best. I too tip my hat to you, sir lol.
You have one of the best looking beards I've ever seen. You could be a beard model.

@@DanCBearded thank you Dan! You’re amazing
Working overtime these past few days. Thanks for continuing to dish out content and education for us.
It is a little more than usual lol worth it though 💪
Thanks. My beard is just like yours, after I tried this, I came back to tell you that it works for me too. The Command beard style. Works for me.
That's awesome!

What's co-washing?
@walterprice9775 got you covered: ruclips.net/video/rogy6jCkFog/видео.htmlsi=qNC83q95et3r-tAh
Agree outside structure holds inner workings. Deff addresses balm build up issue.
This is exactly how I use my balm. Glad I’m doing it “right.” Works perfectly. I’ve even used my boars hair brush after application for a few light passes.
Awesome! Many disagree, but it was the method that worked for me back in the day
Many are wrong 🤣

I have been doing this for about a week now. I use less balm and get the same hold on throughout the day.
Sounds like a win to me!
Your morning routine video works great for me! Thanks for the beard knowledge!
Awesome, glad to hear Joe!
Wow!!! Ive been using twice as much as you and running it through, and too be honest never liked the way it felt and have more oil only days then not! Cannot wait till tomorrow to apply in this new technique !!! Again info we crave and are thrilled to receive!!
You use sooo much less balm with this technique. Report back with how it works for you!
It is a game changer I been doing this the last month or so and it works great!!!!
That is awesome! I briefly showed it on my morning routine video, but figured it was important enough to have a dedicated video
Dan C Bearded that is where I learned it! And I agree def needed a video tutorial
@@ryanjuneau4912 so fricken cool to hear!
I usually apply my balm like I do the oil but I will definitely give this application a try, especially since I’m at the 5 month mark now and need to focus on styling too

That's awesome!
Great video Dan. I use the exact same method. Only use the balm for styling. Have great Sunday sir.
Beautiful! Glad to hear it

I've been using this method since I seen it in one of your earlier videos, works well for me
That is awesome! I thought it was important enough to highlight this specific aspect with a video
Would like to see more of these how to vids. Great vid Dan. Teaching and Preaching!!! Are you using balm everyday now? Thanks buddy keep up the great work!!
Thank you! I certinaly have some more to come. How to get out waves is my next one, pretty excited!
I have tried this & it works for me at night. I shower at night so this is perfect. However, I find the opposite way works best for me in the morning.

Very interesting Jason! Each beard is different, so I bet that is awesome for your beard! Just makes sure the oil is getting to the skin after you have balm on, because that is the purpose of the oil
I've learned so much from you thank you!
You are welcome Ken!
I’ll be trying something new, today! Thanks!
That is so awesome to hear!
I'm gonna have to start trying this method out. Been having some grief with balms and didn't know what I was doing wrong. Perhaps this is it.
It will for sure work! Just might take a little practice
Your beard is majestic.
Thank you brotha!
You're stylin Dan. Thanks for the vid.
Stylin and wildin!
Good advice Dan C keep them coming

I personally go in first with oil and then apply butter throughout the beard. No balm. My beard is at the 2.5 month stage right now, I think once I get another month or two on it I’ll start using balm. Don’t really need as much hold right now!
Sounds like a plan! Check back when you get that need for hold
Thought I was going to be enlightened. Instead, it turns out I do exactly the same thing. Great minds think alike. 😁 Keep up the great videos.
I did so this method in my morning routine video so a lot of people subconsciously made the switch after watching that video lol but I thought it deserved its own dedicated video. Glad we have the same method 👊
Thanks teach. Happy holidays!
Happy holidays to you as well!
i am new to having a beard im a month in i put beard balm in the morning after my shower it works well too
Glad to hear it!
This is probably the best place to ask... how important is it to my beats health? I always buy oil and balm together, but I'm starting to not like the feeling of the balm at the middle of the work day. I've been toying the idea of oil only, especially with jelly.
I do not use balm other than when testing for a company. If you go oil during the day and butter at night, you do not need balm for health purposes
Hey Dan, I believe you and I have about the same morning routine on styling. This method makes a good beard day. 👊
Very cool!
Great tip Dan. Thanks brother!!
Thank you 👊
I do basically the same with the exception of going back with the hair dryer set to cool. Then I add a tad more oil just for the smell. But with that said, my beard has a tad more curls and a little shorter so it doesn't lay down quite as nice as yours.
Sounds like a great step! I always hit the cold setting right before balm
🙌🙌🙌tips on top of tips
On tips on tips on tips
Love the video brother.
Thanks Ryan!
Not first, but happy to be here!!
Happy to have you!
Thanks for the advice, what night butter do you recommend? Your beard always looks great
I always use a rotation of: uncle donnie's, detroit grooming company, and beard octane. I have codes for each if you would like!
When using scotch porter. I do the balm first then serum. I finish with 1/4 of a dallop on the outer beard for hold.
Very interesting!
Great video DC!!👏💯✊🏽👊🏽
I appreciate that!
That simplifies this step for me. So, not under or in my beard but just apply to the out surface. So basically a, uh, Balm Shell?
Exactly!
Hey Dan that is the method I started with. To me balm was like wax-for hold. But the local beard guy I was talking to suggested I start with balm and finish with oil. He said that most dilute balm by already having oil in hands.
To each their own, but I am strongly against that method. Treat the skin FIRST with oil, then balm to finish.
I think a dollop is a precise unit of measurement lol. Haven't tried styling with balm like that but I think I'll give it a shot. Thanks for the video trusted teacher.
Let me know how you like it! And leave it to the Americans for another crazy unit of measurement lol
Great introduction 👍
Thank you!
I would say my beard is at or almost at the length of yours in this video. I know you stopped using balm as the beard has grown.

I will try this method for a while, use the correct amount (was using too little), and wait until after I am dressed to balm it up. Only question, does the beard need to be damp while applying balm? But he time I dress it’s almost dry. Thanks and much love and respect as always.
We should call it the Dan C Balming method!
I’m down! lol
Have you ever done a review on the beard Club products? I've been doing my beard balm like I'm inside all over looking forward to trying in the morning the new method I'm sure it'll be great
I have never tried them, sorry!
Been doing this for a few months now. I used to only use oil. But with the balm it most certainly helps alot with the stray hairs. Still trying to learn how to use the mustache wax for the curly mustache look, but it seems like one side has grown slightly a little thicker than the other...
Awesome to hear! I have a mustache wax video in the works! Stay tuned
Great video Dan
Thank you Dan! I was doing it wrong
Great video trusty teacher, what is your advice for me, 40 yrs and first time letting my beard grow. Thanks 🤘🤘
Drink water, then some more!
Dan C Bearded lol thanks 🤘🤘
Good stuff homie! I'm with you. I'm a one time application guy myself! I think having a curly beard helps with holding a style 🤷🏾♂️
Goof stuff... jeez D, at least make fun of me in a message. Doesn't have to be public 🤣 haha thanks buddy! Could be, the curls hold on together
@@DanCBearded lmao... EDITED! Damn trusted teacher!
@@lumpvision5746 I liked it better before!
@@DanCBearded hahahaha
Have you ever used Proraso beard balm?
I can't find reasonable review of it, so I would love to hear your opinion on it.
I have never actually heard of them, sorry!
@@DanCBearded It's Italian brand, probly thats why.
Its also a liquid beard balm, which makes me curious about it in the first place I guess.
Great video. I'll give this a try tomorrow 😍
Awesome!! Report back with your findings and experience. Seriously interested to hear good or bad!
@@DanCBearded I have been doing this now for 3 days since I watched your video. Definitely the way forward. I like it, thank you
@@jonclarke10 that's really cool brotha!! Thanks for sharing
@@DanCBearded no problem bro, thanks again for the video
I was just wondering if I was applying balm right and this video popped up.
Turns out I am doing it right and I have another company to try.
Awesome Rob!
I'm dying to try beard octane beard balm!
hey you mentioned Vitamines, are you talking topical vitamines or Ingestable?
Just pills for me 👊 I have another video on what I take. Just search like beard supplements
Will do Dan , Thank you
I know this is an old video but, you would apply beard balm after using a beard heated brush correct? Love all the content
Correct!
@DanCBearded ok and thank you again for all the great content.
Call it the "Dan C Beard Helmet Technique" with the balm being applied like a helmet to the outer edges of the beard. I actually do my beard the same way, but minus the oil. I like to only have to apply one product at a time, I am a night shower person so I apply my oil at night, then morning I wash up and this dampens the beard then I apply the beard balm the same as you concentrating mostly on the corners as I too have a thick bushy curly beard. Yup last all day for me as well, and this means the balm, or some times I will just use oil in the am on a light day, better be able to cut the mustard all day or it's out! Have a suggestion for a new try , "Huckstle" a new start up from Ohio they have a product called multi- balm for use on your beard, skin, hair, even your wife could use. High quality ingredients some unique scents, I'm using a OUD/ Teak wood wow! I like the product, I have not tried the oil at this point. No affiliation, just one brother to another recommending a nice product. Oh ya the price seems a bit high but you receive almost 4 oz in a quality glass jar. I will give the bit of oil to the skin a try thanks again for quality informative videos, carry on!
I actually have 3 oils and a balm from them Huckstle with a video in the couple weeks to come!
Dan, I always use this method, it's my way for balm
But great to share it so other people knows how to control their beards ;)
That's great! Most do not
Trusted teacher did it again👍
Thanks brotha!
I will have to try this out tomorrow morning. It's a little different compared to what I normally do.
Keep me posted with results!
Absolutely will!
@@fredmoranis77 awesome, excited to hear!
@Dan C Bearded ok I’m impressed. This worked out great. Especially when I used my thumbs under my jaw and styled from there. Thanks for this video!
@@fredmoranis77 that is so cool!!
Sir I feel bad for spamming questions knowing you make an effort to reply to most of your viewers, but given that you're a teacher we can trust, here goes nothing:
Is using beard balm everyday problematic if you don't wash your beard with a beard wash everyday? In the sense that it will prevent other products from being absorbed due to buildup?
Is a wash with just water good enough to prevent any problems?
I assume that when people mention not washing your beard everyday mean not washing your beard with beard wash everyday, where washing with just water is okay?
I do recommend washing your beard after every beard balm day.
Rinsing with water doesn’t do enough
I do actually recommend washing daily. Just need the right wash!
Dan, what a revelation fella. I actually do this in part but, I also run the balm through like other 99% as you say. Will definitely try this method.......and Dan, I have a name for this method........'The Dan c stroke'
haha idk about that name!
My beard's no way near as long as yours, could I email you a picture because I'm pretty unsure of what to do with it. I'm capable of growing a large beard but I'm trying to keep it short, last night I tried trimming the sides down with a guard on my shaver and I regret it lol. P.S just wanted to say that I get all my advice from this channel, it definitely helps. There's just so much information out there that I didn't know where to start, but thankfully this channel provides all of that with concise and informative videos, so keep it up 👍
Absolutely 👊 email is dan_command@yahoo.com
@@DanCBearded Awesome man, thank you. I'll be sending the email when I find some time! Cheers.
I thought beard balm was useful for not only styling and moisturizing your beard, but also for sealing the oil into your skin by adding a protective layer. I’m surprised you don’t get it into your skin. Glad this method works for you though, still struggling with dry skin lol.
Balm is really only for the hair and is more styling than nourishment. I think you are more so looking for the butter
Great tips sir 👌 I have always used this method as I found it kept my thick beard styled for longer. The usual method could be better for thin or patchy beards as it may provide more 'body' to each hair and make the beard appear fuller?✌
I would have to disagree, I think putting it throughout makes the hair stick together and look thinner. That is the main reason I go to this method! I have never had a thin beard lol so I cannot say, but the other method does make my beard thinner
@@DanCBearded I experienced the opposite! It made my beard stick out and more bushier as if my hair was thicker! Maybe it was the balm or the quantity used? Like you say every beard is different!
@@enqrob super interesting!
I apply balm in the same manner, but prefer a stiff balm. Have you ever done research on how beard hair compares to head hair? There has to be a difference in the two hairs shape, or how they form? Round vs flat shape? I don't know but I bet the trusted teacher might know. Have a good day!
I have, yes! And why it's curly and all of that. I certainly have some videos planned. Even why head lice cannot live in beard!
@@DanCBearded Awesome I guessed you have done the research. I remember a few things from biology class, and hairs do have different shapes etc. I look forward to you having a class, on this subject, for all of us. 🏆
@@dougefresh5793 👊👍
I just started my beard. So i picked up some honest Amish beard oil and beard balm. Is that good for starters?
Literally what I would recommend for starters. Quality products at a great price
@@DanCBearded thank you sir! I have Cremo beard and face wash too. I bought a sandalwood Cremo comb as well.
What do you like best? Beard balm or beard wax? Thanx
These days neither, just oil during the day and butter at night
Sweet video!
