+p=mv Yeah, sure a sharpened weapon can cut through a beard, but can it go far enough to actually cause damage, or are you killed by the shame of not having a beard anymore first?
I just want to thank you for this video. My father died before I was old enough to get beard grooming tips from him and you have now provided me with an excellent example of what to do. It brought a few tears to my eyes but I'm overall happy that you finally made this video.
I just want to share a story to fellow friends of the beard: It was really hard for me to get some beard oil or balm, had to order it online. I asked in most stores who sell shampoo, razors, scissors for haircutting, etc and the people working there all look at me like some wild circus beast when I was asking for beard oil or any other stuff to care for my beard. Whenever I asked, they promptly showed me the section with razors and aftershaves. It seemd like "caring for your beard" actually means getting rid of it. The idea that I wanted my beard to grow was met with surprise and weird faces. I don't really care what people think of me so it's mostly a funny story to tell... ^^
+TheBritishGeek inside your shell you wait and beard i used to shave most stuff outside of goaty because it was looking like bald people with long hair until this year so basically i had to shave till 26-27
When you cut the beard, though, do you just shave it? Moisturize it first? Comb it out a ton? End it rightly? There's no pommel, so we can't use that...
great video my wife asked me to grow a beard 2 yrs ago and i refused at first because attempts at growing a mustache were terriable so i asummed there was no way id grow a proper beard but i decided to give it a try and 2yrs later i still have a wonderfull beard and get compliments on it all the time
Hey Skall, weird tip from an uncle with a MAGNIFICENT beard: When your beard gets unruly, put fabric softener in it for 5-10 minutes, and then wash it out in a shower. (According to him) this softens the hair and lets you straighten it out via combing and brushing. (I think it stiffens again over the next week) Thoughts?
I was never taught how to maintain any of the hair growing out of me I picked up a few things but when it came to facial hair I was just getting by after watching this I got weird dad feels like a father figure teaching how to properly take care of yourself idk I hope you take that as a compliment just cause of the way you present your self very professional and patient
I think this is due to my Asian descent. I have tried leaving my beard be, but it hasn't grown at much at all, despite not cutting it for months. It doesn't even reach the bottom of my neck. Haha I can only imagine how long those ancient Asian masters waited to have a really long beard. Hahaha I'll just console myself with these tiny dragon whiskers or something. Hahaha
+Chujutsu Genetics. I know plenty of Asians who are capable of growing beards, may I ask what part your heritage is? Generally southeast Asia along the southern shoreline has the least beard growth.
Madra I am of Chinese descent. I am not sure if I have some other ethnicity in my family tree, but at the very least, the most part of my heritage is Chinese. From what I remember about my family, we've migrated to Southeast Asia in only the past few generations. My paternal grandfather came from China at least, but I don't remember if I had asked my other grandparents where they had come from.
I'm an Irishman with a black man's pubic hair on me face! And it's RED! I look like Prince Harry except I'm not rich or well-liked and my wife's a skank. Please explain procedure for seppuku, I cannot bear the shame.
@@jasoncarswell7458 Seppuku is japanese, not Chinese. But even as a german, I looked it up a lot: first, you need to find some officials to judge if you have restored your honor after the seppuku and a friend Who can almost decapitate you (he needs to cut deep enough to Kill you, but if your head comes Off, he dishonors you and has to seppuku himself). The real Seppuku Begins with wearing a white Kimono. You write a Haiku, something like your funeral poem. Then you Pick Up the Tantō or Wakizashi. You use it to make a cut from the left side of your Belly, height about six centimeter beneath your navel (but more to the left) and then you cut all the way to the right side, drawing the sword upwards when you're on the right side. The cut has to be deep enough so you cut your aorta. Important: don't scream or Show any pain on your Face. It's not honorable. If you're close to screaming and crying and whatever, lower your head, exposing your neck. Your friend then slashes with a Katana, killing you in One Blow without completely decapitating you. If he doesn't manage to Kill you with one blow (e.g. the Katana gets stuck in a bone) or completely decapitates you, it's dishonorable and he May be forced to do Seppuku himself.
So... I've been watching Skall's videos about various melee weapons, and then I found THIS. I'm in process of growing a beard (absolutely incidentally a bit like Skall's awesome beast), so I've embarked on a magical journey through videos about beardcare. It's been a very enlightening 4 hours of my life.
Had a beard for around a year now. My only additional advice would be, if you have a good barbershop in your area, to go ahead and pay them a visit. The good ones will have a barberpole outside, a nice decoration, good conversation, advices, products, and offer you a beer at some point.
I used to think I couldn't grow facial hair, but after about 3 or 4 months I actually had a proper goatee. Still very patchy on the sides, but I'm 20 so I guess only time will tell
Your beard is majestic. You made some great points about body image. As a bearded person myself, I learned some interesting new things, even though I've been bearded for 5 years now.
HA! Jokes on you! My power as ASIAN stop beard from growing on me! I will never become a beautiful moster with magnificent beard like you! Ha hahahaha hahaha ha [cry]
If you want tips about the kind of shape you might want to have for a stubble, I can actually recommend looking up videos about male makeup and contouring. Contouring is the result of good makeup technique that can seemingly redefine the shape of your face. Male contouring can be used to create a more masculine appearance through the use of shaders from the cheekbone across the cheeks. Female contouring uses a similar, softer curve to the contour. Use those guidelines for the stubble you want to grow on your face. It can make your face look more defined. Skall shows how to do that with your jawline here too.

i mostly clicked on this because i wasn't doing much, and it appeared in my subscriptions feed. turns out, actually quite useful. didn't see that coming.
+Tony Li Some people just look better with bears. I myself find it hard to appreciated my appearance when looking in the mirror if i don't wear my stubble beard. And so think all of my male and even female friends. Chicks dig beards.
I know that feeling. One time in high school I shaved and actually had trouble sleeping because I wasn't used to the blankets being able to touch my chin. XD
+Tholfend Anyone who bears the mark of red hair such as myself understands the burning hatred of the heat. I have had 2nd degree sunburns all over my back, neck, and arms before. It made me unable to wear a shirt for 7 days, and I cried myself to sleep every night. Everyone is always shocked to hear that I despise summer with all of my being, but they don't understand what it's like to be so sensitive to the heat. And that burn was only from 3 hours of constant sunlight. If only they knew. I thrive in Winter, and pretty much hide from humanity in Summer haha.
bob smith Wow that must be pretty annoying thing, sorry to hear that :/ I am not sensitive to heat I just don't like heat, like 10°C is fine for me but in summer.....yeah I hide, too :D Winter is the best weather for me or autumn when its rainy and cloudy :)
keep up the good work skallagrim, personally i think you're the best youtuber going. you and the other half ever come to the uk it would be an honor to meet you for a beer or two to say thanks for the enjoyment you give your subscribers
I've shaved my moustache today and I look like an ISIS warrior... -_- I must grow it back. But what to do if my moustache hair enter my girlfriend's nose while kissing? :|
+Edvardius Two options, either keep the mustache trimmed fairly short so that the hairs aren't long enough to poke, or grow the mustache long enough to be soft and potentially being waxed to the sides/into the main beard.
You and me have the exact same pattern and color of beard growth so I had to watch this. I've tried all kinds of tapering on the sides, and even down to the exact long chin style you're going with but eventually decided for myself that only way of avoiding the kthulu factor is to let the sides and even the neck grow the same as the chin up to right below the ears before going short. It grows massive wings, but holds a strong ball shape and no matter how big it gets that keeps the structure. Also, I find hot water to be bad, but cold water is the key!
I've been using Mane n' Tail for my hair and beard for a year or two now- it's been nice, no itching or the like... but I loooove the sound of some of the scents on Beard Monster, so hope to try them out soon. Thanks for pointing the way to them ^.^

The on thing I was augment about beard growing is more time. I currently have a 2 year old beard. At the start there were a few minor bald/thin spots and the top of the ball of my chin wasn't doing anything either. By year 1, most of the thin spots decided to grow in. Or enough around it had grown that you couldn't see any bald/thin spots. Half way through the second year, the spot on the top of the ball of my chin finally decided to start growing hair. Beard hair grows at different times and rate. You may have spots that just refuse to grow no matter how old you get. You have some that are just lazy and will eventually start growing. The only way you'll know which you are is time. If you don't like how your beard is growing now, wait a year or so and try again. One thing is guaranteed, it will never grow as long as you keep shaving it.
There's no hope for you. Unless you mean you are only 16 in which case give it a bit more time. I could only start growing a beard when I was already 18.
I'm 23 and can only grow a loose ... something, it is too long to be called stuble, but too short to be called a beard. Unfortunately I need to shave once every 4 days due to my weird growth. I just recently gave my "beard" aboot a month to grow since I just recently entered NEET status unfortunately, and it didn't go anywhere good.
Nope. Undercut usually means you have hair hanging over the shaved part. If there's only a patch of short hair on the top of the head, AFAIK it's called a jarhead - b/c it looks a bit like the lid on a jar.
My beard grows out very fast, but my mustache is really weak and wispy, and my soul patch is almost non-existent... So I can only have total neckbeard, sideburns, goatee, or stubble. I'm not sure what to do. :(
+TheSpaghettiKnight Sideburns are a legitimate option. I kept sideburns until I was able to actually grow a beard. I wasn't able to grow a full beard until I was nearly 30. But the other day I was likened to a bear, so I say it turned out well in the end. If you do the Klingon beard, then mad props.
+Vykk Draygo I can grow mean sideburns, but the rest of my beard is patchy and my moustache makes me look kinda like a child molester. maybe there is hope for me after all..
2020, I just saw this video. Nothing new for me, but this video was just... nice. You know? Nice. Something for us bearded people. Keep your beard awesome and keep safe, the world is kinda shite now. And all the ladies and men, get something nice to your hairful partner! I love beards and chest hair and if someone has problem with that, I'm mostly straight. I just love good style.
love this vid it was a surprise to see it but i never thought of using oils on my beard till now, now i know what im going to get for christmas. happy beard growing :)
Beard King makes a cool trimming apron that snaps around your neck and suction cups to the mirror to keep your sink clean. Its made of the same material as a barbers apron so cleanup is a breeze!
Been a fan of your sword-related content for a bit now, but somehow never noticed this video! I've always had just the goatee, but lately have been trying to expand it out into a full beard; these tips were definitely helpful.
shaving doesn't make your beard grow any faster, but it can make it look thicker once it grows back, particularly if you've never shaved before. 'Fresh' hair tapers down to a fine point at the tip. thus making it appear thinner, and once you cut it, the tip of the hair ends flat, rather then tapering down.
I have a beard myself, and as i saw some of your older videos, i definetely noticed that wispy beard of yours. I actually did the exact same mistake, only with a full beard, i let almost no neck-beard at all. You can imagine how that looked :P Thankfully that's not the case anymore. Awesome Tutorial btw Skall.

Agreed

+p=mv Yeah, sure a sharpened weapon can cut through a beard, but can it go far enough to actually cause damage, or are you killed by the shame of not having a beard anymore first?

If you want tips about the kind of shape you might want to have for a stubble, I can actually recommend looking up videos about male makeup and contouring.
Contouring is the result of good makeup technique that can seemingly redefine the shape of your face. Male contouring can be used to create a more masculine appearance through the use of shaders from the cheekbone across the cheeks. Female contouring uses a similar, softer curve to the contour.
Use those guidelines for the stubble you want to grow on your face. It can make your face look more defined. Skall shows how to do that with your jawline here too.

ASMR suddenly makes sense to me.
You're an inspiration to us all, mighty bearded man!
How do you guys feel about Lemmy style mutton chops? It's basically the only thing I can grow.
+RegurgitatedNews DO IT!
Look at cult of dusty's old videos.
I've been using Mane n' Tail for my hair and beard for a year or two now- it's been nice, no itching or the like... but I loooove the sound of some of the scents on Beard Monster, so hope to try them out soon. Thanks for pointing the way to them ^.^
Step 1 : grow a beard
Already failed
I totally get the whole beard-stroking habit. I have long hair and find it hard not to play with it. I love it.

LOOOOOOOOLLLLLLLL!!!!!!!!/10
but where do you apply it?
The on thing I was augment about beard growing is more time. I currently have a 2 year old beard. At the start there were a few minor bald/thin spots and the top of the ball of my chin wasn't doing anything either. By year 1, most of the thin spots decided to grow in. Or enough around it had grown that you couldn't see any bald/thin spots. Half way through the second year, the spot on the top of the ball of my chin finally decided to start growing hair.
Beard hair grows at different times and rate. You may have spots that just refuse to grow no matter how old you get. You have some that are just lazy and will eventually start growing. The only way you'll know which you are is time. If you don't like how your beard is growing now, wait a year or so and try again. One thing is guaranteed, it will never grow as long as you keep shaving it.
skall what if I havnt shaved in 16 years and I haven't grown my beard yet
There's no hope for you. Unless you mean you are only 16 in which case give it a bit more time. I could only start growing a beard when I was already 18.
I'm 23 and can only grow a loose ... something, it is too long to be called stuble, but too short to be called a beard. Unfortunately I need to shave once every 4 days due to my weird growth. I just recently gave my "beard" aboot a month to grow since I just recently entered NEET status unfortunately, and it didn't go anywhere good.
Connor Hudson yeah I'm only 16 and havnt shaved. so far can only grow a mustache
brandon silva then you need to shave your shitty peach fuzz
I demand a 10 hour long video of you brushing your beard without saying a word, just the sound of comb caressing your beard!
finally
And at the very end he shatters what i've believed since middle school... thank you.
Personally, oval face + mohawk + that kind of beard just seems to me like it elongates the face too much.
+BuFufilms
That's not a mohawk.
+Skallagrim Is it a jarhead?
***** Couldn't think of a better term, what would you call it?
+BuFufilms
Pretty sure that's simply called an undercut.
Nope. Undercut usually means you have hair hanging over the shaved part.
If there's only a patch of short hair on the top of the head, AFAIK it's called a jarhead - b/c it looks a bit like the lid on a jar.
I'm a 21 year old woman and totally enjoyed this 👍
My beard grows out very fast, but my mustache is really weak and wispy, and my soul patch is almost non-existent... So I can only have total neckbeard, sideburns, goatee, or stubble. I'm not sure what to do. :(
+TheSpaghettiKnight
Maybe you could do kind of a Klingon beard? :)
+Skallagrim o_o ...Maybe? That might actually work, I do have a low brow, rounded jawline and a strong chin... I could try.
+TheSpaghettiKnight Sideburns are a legitimate option. I kept sideburns until I was able to actually grow a beard. I wasn't able to grow a full beard until I was nearly 30. But the other day I was likened to a bear, so I say it turned out well in the end.
If you do the Klingon beard, then mad props.
+Vykk Draygo I can grow mean sideburns, but the rest of my beard is patchy and my moustache makes me look kinda like a child molester. maybe there is hope for me after all..
Only a real man makes a 19 minute video on beardcare. Well spoken, sir.
i like my beard going all Cthulhu :D
+Y0G0FU iam one of the people that cant grow a beard D: i tried it 3 times allready and everything looks awfull.
+Y0G0FU After it goes awful just wait it out even longer. Don't even trim it. Neglect it. Leave it dirty. It'll come to you on its own.
2020, I just saw this video. Nothing new for me, but this video was just... nice. You know? Nice. Something for us bearded people. Keep your beard awesome and keep safe, the world is kinda shite now. And all the ladies and men, get something nice to your hairful partner! I love beards and chest hair and if someone has problem with that, I'm mostly straight. I just love good style.
How old are you? If you don't mind me asking
+Boady Cranford 42

That's not a beard and damn did it ever sound like dried out wires
Actually it is a beard
Beard King makes a cool trimming apron that snaps around your neck and suction cups to the mirror to keep your sink clean. Its made of the same material as a barbers apron so cleanup is a breeze!
Introducing MAN ASMR.
*The room fills with the sounds of gentle beard brushing.
i got nothing to do
but i'm totally not bored enough to put this on a loop
I haven't shaved in 5 months, and my beard is still growing. It's been going through stages of growing, stopping, growing, stopping.
Been a fan of your sword-related content for a bit now, but somehow never noticed this video! I've always had just the goatee, but lately have been trying to expand it out into a full beard; these tips were definitely helpful.
shaving doesn't make your beard grow any faster, but it can make it look thicker once it grows back, particularly if you've never shaved before. 'Fresh' hair tapers down to a fine point at the tip. thus making it appear thinner, and once you cut it, the tip of the hair ends flat, rather then tapering down.
al hail the beardtastic skall!
I`m waiting for this video for more than a year!
Thanks Skall :D
Best video ever made
And thus the greatest video of all times was made. And there was peace on earth.
I have a beard myself, and as i saw some of your older videos, i definetely noticed that wispy beard of yours. I actually did the exact same mistake, only with a full beard, i let almost no neck-beard at all. You can imagine how that looked :P Thankfully that's not the case anymore. Awesome Tutorial btw Skall.
Never expected a beard growing tutorial from Skal, very informative.
