Sometimes i come back to see old videos of Dan, i have saw all Dan's videos times and times because every time i do it i have more things that i know and i can understend the tips better than time ago, every Dan's video is a great support for me and i appreciate what Dan do for us sharing his passion in EVERY details. Thanks Dan you rock👊
Great video never thought of side selfie. Just checked my connectors and I need to let them grow I do have a small gap I didn’t know I had. Thanks once again trusted teacher! Always bringing out the knowledge with the minor details! I love it
Thanks for info, it was quite timely. I was standing in front of my mirror my new Brio in hand, thinking I'd clean up the edges. I stopped and thought, let me check online for some info and there was this video. I believe you stopped me from making a gap error. The Brio is now standing in it's base. Again and, it seems to have a recurrent theme, always thanks Dan C.
Thankfully that you brought this up. I always make sure that it is filled in on the sides with my mirrors. I do cringe when I see guys that do disconnect from the neck when combing or brushing forward. I understand that they want create a thicker look in the front but not realizing it makes it looks like the beard is just hanging on the bottom of the chin and disconnected from the neck on the sides. It really looks funny. I do see some of the beard models that does that. Not only that they do shave the neck area even tho they have a long beard that covers the neck area which they shouldn’t have done that. I’ve seen one video that you can see clearly when the sun was beaming right through the beard where you can see the clean shaven neck area that creates the beard look very thin or sparse. I hope I’m not ranting much but this must be said to every bearded guys. Great video, Dan as always! 👌🏻
Hey, great video as always, Dan. For me, I've found that (and you can see with your beard as well) when I trim with my clippers, I treat the sides of my beard as a straight line going all the way down. I don't trim with my clippers inward on my beard, just a straight line from my burns, down, without going in. For the bottom, I take the line straight back to my neck, without going upward. This ensures that the hairs growing at the connector areas fill in completely. If they grow past my lines, then I trim them back to the line again.
Thank you so much for putting out this video Dan! I noticed I was trimming the under a little too often. I learned to leave it alone & no more under cave 😂😂😂 for me. I noticed when I looked in the mirror, I was seeing a little see through on the bottom of the beard, & I learned to correct that. My barber trimmed about 1/2” on the bottom for my daughters wedding & it’s all back to normal. Live & learn. Now it seems fuller. In a few months it’ll be longer than I originally had it
This is me every time I regrow my beard. Idk if you remember me, but this is Nate Rivera from last years beard advice livestream. You told me that I had an awesome beard, but that I needed to grow the under beard longer and move down the neckline.
I accidently hit thumbs down before smashing the like button! It warned me that the creator was notified lol. I definitely did NOT dislike this video. I definitely used to hack away at my side beard, because I thought I was trimming it properly. Then I couldn't figure out why my beard looked so thin! You made me realize that those hairs were critical!
@@DanCBearded Yeah it popped up this warning saying the creator will be notified. I was like oh no! Lol. I also don't really downvote videos so maybe it wasn't used to me doing that.
@@wtmke1ify I've thought this for a long time. Got ahold of BeardTube about it as well. Even just a simple instagram page "Dr Beard" or something would be awesome. I like to do my own trims but being as this is my first 'yeard' I'm constantly second guessing where I'm at with it and to be able to throw a pic up to get a little guidance would be awesome.
Great tips! I'll watch a time or two more to see how or if I can use them. I don't see a gap, and I understand the importance of the underbeard for fullness. I see round brushes more and more, but I have a lot of brushes and combs I no longer use. Now my preferred comb is a Kent FOT (Fine teeth only), with a Beard Brawler on occasion, and sometimes various brushes to remind me why I no longer use them. 😀 Your explanation was clean and clear, as expected!
Good lesson. I'm at 27 months of growth. At this point of growth my beard is about 10x fuller than I ever thought it would be. When I style my beard in the morning I go for the bowl look in the front and want the connected look on the neck. It really makes it look thick and full... Your right this is an angle we never think of....👍👊
Hey Dan, my names Bob. Thank you for all the videos and instruction. I've been growing my beard for a couple years now and have had it trimmed a couple times at a little small town barbershop where I live, and it was jacked. I was wondering if you offer one on one advice. If I were to take pics of my beard from different angles and send them to you, could you tell me what I need to do to have a longer and better looking beard? I need help!!! Or do I just need to save and watch every video you have here on RUclips? I know you're a busy man. Thanks Dan.
Hey Bob, feel free to reach out. I’m happy to help! Contact info is in the description. If you haven’t, consider sending in for our Beard Advice Live show on Wednesday nights. We do that exact thing in real time. Check it out: ruclips.net/video/ccqhjj2ePss/видео.html
My beard is not to dissimilar from yours. Except that the hair at my beard gap grows more full and about 3x faster. It always grows outward. Thank God for beard balm. I was really paying attention to what my barber was doing during my last trim and I noticed he used a round brush to curl it inward as you did here. Been doing that for 2 weeks and the difference is insane!
My last barber (female) cut my side beard off. I was 7 months in so I’m waiting for both sides to come back. Lesson learned, always communicate with your barber and make sure they understand what look you’re going for.
Ahhhh I new help Idk what 2 do my beard is I between medium & long but I have always wondered like a dummy y my beard was never full it’s becuz I have always trimmed everything from my backside of my chin down do I wait for it 2 come in or cut it down & restart
Great video! This will definitely help. I over trimmed my connectors two weeks ago. Hate to have to trim length and start over. Still may have to. Thanks for the tips.
I did the same thing a year ago. I was not happy with myself. However, I left my beard alone and it eventually grew out....We see more imperfections that what other people see. Trust me...
awesome vid as always, I'll be trying this with my beard moving forward. nice use of the rounded brush for the corners and the neck base. what's your opinion for tying off the beard in a ponytail like style, I know you haven't done it, at least in your videos. I've recently started playing around with the style as my beard is on the cusp of being long enough. I find it helps tie everything into to a more rounded shape and where as without my beard is more fan like. especially on the sides where I turn looking left to right. it could be my styling need more work to train my bead the way I want it, but I do like the convince of a chin ponytail and looking forward to when my beard is long enough to do this on it's own.
Great video Dan. I do something very similar but I’ve been using a Kent comb. Going to try the round brush once I buy one and see if it helps even more.
Thanks for the solid advice on how to have a thicker beard .. I just lined up my neck and sides yesterday and feel like I set myself back a little . I coulda used this video a day earlier ! I was worried I was looking scruffy as I’m about 4-5 months into my bearded journey and really wanted to try my new trimmer out. Bad idea! Nothing better than trial and error I suppose... oh wait there is Dan C. Bearded! What a less painful way to learn the do’s and don’t’s of beard growth!!
For any gaps... I may use a filler pen. Not advisable to paint on a full beard here... (did that once on a hot ass july day in nyc... that shit made me look lets just say ridiculous) but if you have a wedding or picture taking event... it helps
Well my beard simply don't grow on neck. I considered this a super power until I decided to grow longer beard and it's obviously a weakness now. Probably going to trim it shorter closer to jaw line like I used to do but we'll see
This is the problem that I need to fix now my beard starts to lay down, on 07-2021 I've got the spade shape on request and on 10-2021 the barber did cut the fly away hair with scissors with the goal to grow a long beard. Time to get another beard trim now that I know what can be improved, did not go to the barber because I did not know how to describe the cut that I want. Can this neck area be one of those places that develops on later ages? It seems like the hairs in that area are starting to change to beard hairs and most of the hair is hard to notice in that area.
Hello Dan, I have been growing my beard for 4.5 months and my neck line is incorrect. Should i shave it off and start again? Thank you for all the video's, your awesome!
Your beard is looking magnificent my guy ... thanks for all the info... I just started regrowing mine out full, I’m a beard rookie and documenting my journey so I can use all the techniques possible 💪🏆🏆
Olla dan c .. awesome vids.. but a question plse.. I thought i only wanted a face beard with 2.5 months in growth. so i trimmed my neck line alit higher. But now wanna grow my beard longer. But have a gap. .. Should i trim my beard to grow with my neck or just let my neck grow ? .... ty
O man this is a good video Dan...this to me is by far the most aggravating to trim around to not cut into the beard and I have to pay close attention in this area and feel like I’m always trying to let the beard work backwards right there...I don’t have a round brush but I do pick my beard out and then comb it through and use my hands to tame the underbeard and get everything to lay right👊🏼🔥🔥
Wish I saw this video a couple weeks ago! I am kinda going for that same full wedge shape beard and got a little scissor happy with those back corners because they were starting to puff out and I didn’t like that so I shortened and defined the corners, so now I’m gonna have to take some time and patience to play catch-up !
Why do trim your side burns- just curious? I started letting my grow out and the are adding so much hair- I think mine will eventually cover my neck hair fly aways I hate so much.
Dan C Bearded I do basically the same as your morning routine video, but I get what I call “cowlicks “ so I use the straightener, I’m passionate about growing a long beard like yours especially the boxy look.
Dan C Bearded I also think it will be easier to manage when I get to a certain length, I think I’m in that awkward phase right now. Keep up the great videos I really appreciate them
I just checked and as far as I can tell I do not have a gap. If anything my neckline extenda lower than my beard at this point and I need to trim it up to clean up the line. I haven't had a proper trim in about two months so it's about time I fix this.
How have I not scene this video? This is the biggest problem I face. Have a scar under my chin from car wreck. My left side is pretty sparse of coverage so once it gets to 4 to 5 inches it starts looking real stringy and like I had a horrific grooming accident.
Hello D.C.B. Its just me . But i dont like or want hair on my neck for gap area .. thats just my personal style. But i am growing possibly a medium beard. Well see how it goes.. but ur videos are awesome.. ty very much.
I'm quite tall with a longish neck (i feel anyway...) and have no hairs down on my neck. They only grow down just below my adams apple at the front and just below my jawline at the sides so its difficult to get decent side coverage at a longer length. Doesn't help that both sides are grey so appear thinner as well
Don't use JFM. Its make your beard feel dry. The color is harsh and fake. Go to Sally's and use a brand called Ion color brillance . Use the light brown 5N color. Trust me it not light and looks very natural. Ask a person who works there to help you. Most employees are helpful. I use a 20 developer. Use 50/50 color to developer. I've used color on my beard for 8 years. This stuff is the best. It makes your facial hair soft. It not a permit color so you will not get any growth lines. Keep it on for about 25 minutes and increase time on the more experienced you become. It will not burn your hair. Just gets darker the longer it stays on. Good luck...👍
Literally JUST watched this after my did my 2 month line up/trim. DAMN. I literally JUST had my sister help me with the line up on my side to where my sides meet the neck. What a damn coincidence. Ahhhhh the thing is I haaaaad to fix my line up on my sides, it was looking BAD from a side view. I won’t get any women with that. Lol. Ahh guess I’ll get again when it’s longer .. ps. Ever since I have found beard butter, I THREW AWAY all my beard balms. Don’t even like it or see the need for it anymore. I like the natural fluffy look way over the balm. Beard butter is the TRUTH.
Dan C Bearded I mean, eh, Idk man. I hate the sides of my beard. It’s literally the main thing that always keeps me thinking “maybe I should just go back to a shorter beard”... those nasty thoughts. Lol. I should just continue to IG Dm You, & maybe you could give me some tips, I could send you a pic right now.
@@CHAD-RYAN depends on your length. If you length covers it looking straight on, leave it alone! Shorter than that, it comes down to personal preference. I recommend one finger above the Adam’s apple
In my personal experience I stopped shaving my neckline when my beard length grew to the point I couldn't see my neckline face on in the mirror. The sooner you are able to stop shaving the neckline the better I believe, because those neck hairs support the beard and give it fullness for the longer beard styles. Additionally, I recommend using a hand mirror to see your beard from all angles as Dan C suggests, because you get a sense of what your beard looks like from all different angles, and you may spot some hairs that need to be tamed that you wouldn't notice otherwise.
Crucial part of the beard to understand, unfortunately this hair represents the most annoying growth I have. They grow unevenly and significantly faster than my other hair. On top of this they are (and especially used to be) a different texture to the rest of my beard. Really feels like I have a piece of rope at each corner of my beard sometimes.
My suggestion is...find a good beard barber who will listen to you, and don't try it yourself! My bifocals prevent me from seeing it accurately. Other friends of mine with beards wonder and ask my why mine stays on point...I don't trust myself! 😂
I know your frustration. I worked a suit and tie job for over 30 plus years. I was laid off 8 years ago and now work for myself. Now I have a big ass beard and love it...👍
This is actually a hecka good tutorial. I need to try one of those round brushes sometime
Thanks Scuba!

Hello D.C.B.
Its just me . But i dont like or want hair on my neck for gap area .. thats just my personal style. But i am growing possibly a medium beard. Well see how it goes.. but ur videos are awesome.. ty very much.
Big fan of a solid connector!! Key to a boss beard
Nice info Dan!
Thanks brotha!
If you shave your neck hair line too high, mess up , will it catch up back to the rest of the beard if you stop shaving them ?
Only if you do small trims to the rest of the beard as the neck catches up
I don’t have the connector. But I can work with what I got to make it look like it. Beard on!
Rock what you got!
I'm quite tall with a longish neck (i feel anyway...) and have no hairs down on my neck. They only grow down just below my adams apple at the front and just below my jawline at the sides so its difficult to get decent side coverage at a longer length. Doesn't help that both sides are grey so appear thinner as well
Thanks for the information Dan C
Hey bro love ur vids. If you use Just for Men dye which color do you use for the brown?
Don't use JFM. Its make your beard feel dry. The color is harsh and fake. Go to Sally's and use a brand called Ion color brillance . Use the light brown 5N color. Trust me it not light and looks very natural. Ask a person who works there to help you. Most employees are helpful. I use a 20 developer. Use 50/50 color to developer. I've used color on my beard for 8 years. This stuff is the best. It makes your facial hair soft. It not a permit color so you will not get any growth lines. Keep it on for about 25 minutes and increase time on the more experienced you become. It will not burn your hair. Just gets darker the longer it stays on. Good luck...👍
I would not recommend using
This is good stuff. Thank you
Thanks!
Literally JUST watched this after my did my 2 month line up/trim. DAMN. I literally JUST had my sister help me with the line up on my side to where my sides meet the neck. What a damn coincidence. Ahhhhh the thing is I haaaaad to fix my line up on my sides, it was looking BAD from a side view. I won’t get any women with that. Lol. Ahh guess I’ll get again when it’s longer .. ps. Ever since I have found beard butter, I THREW AWAY all my beard balms. Don’t even like it or see the need for it anymore. I like the natural fluffy look way over the balm. Beard butter is the TRUTH.
Has the gap been better since?
Dan C Bearded I mean, eh, Idk man. I hate the sides of my beard. It’s literally the main thing that always keeps me thinking “maybe I should just go back to a shorter beard”... those nasty thoughts. Lol. I should just continue to IG Dm You, & maybe you could give me some tips, I could send you a pic right now.
@@RyanMatson hit me!
Ok just starting my yeard journey, where’s the best spot to trim under the beard or do I just let it all grow thanks in advance
Sorry for the late reply brotha. To start, 1 finger above the Adam's apple. Let it grow down natural from there
Great, original content... I am also placing this in the classification of advanced beard grooming techniques. Thanks for this video
Thank you so much!
Great video yet again.
Thank you buddy!
Great content on this channel.
Thank you!!
My connectors grow from left to right. Straight 90degree angle. How to tame?
Heat! Blowdryer and comb or a heated brush
@@DanCBearded is there a point on the beadneckline where you should cut or trim. Like the adams apple and below?
@@CHAD-RYAN depends on your length. If you length covers it looking straight on, leave it alone! Shorter than that, it comes down to personal preference. I recommend one finger above the Adam’s apple
Do you have a recommendation on a starter kit for a baby beard? Non scented
Check out viking revolution!
@@DanCBearded thanks man I appreciate it
Great video my dude
Thanks Dan! I hope you're doing well
Thanks you very much for the video
You're welcome brotha!
I can’t get under my neck to grow what should I do
Patience and healthy habits!
Thanks man
When do u stop shaving ur neckline
In my personal experience I stopped shaving my neckline when my beard length grew to the point I couldn't see my neckline face on in the mirror. The sooner you are able to stop shaving the neckline the better I believe, because those neck hairs support the beard and give it fullness for the longer beard styles. Additionally, I recommend using a hand mirror to see your beard from all angles as Dan C suggests, because you get a sense of what your beard looks like from all different angles, and you may spot some hairs that need to be tamed that you wouldn't notice otherwise.
@@brendon3795 I second everything you wrote...👍
Mine is now natural, I do not touch it
Just checked, no gap!!
Score!
Thank you!

Which hat is that?
That is my hat. We do not have any in stock right now though
Crucial part of the beard to understand, unfortunately this hair represents the most annoying growth I have. They grow unevenly and significantly faster than my other hair. On top of this they are (and especially used to be) a different texture to the rest of my beard. Really feels like I have a piece of rope at each corner of my beard sometimes.
I would trim even while it grows it at its own pace
@@DanCBearded exactly what I do buddy, just gotta be patient with it
Wow, I have a lot of growing to do...
Patience is key!
Sound alike great tips but I'm not allowed to grow my beard out long enough to use this because of my job 😭 lol
Quit, they don't deserve your beard any how
Give them the hand and than turn that crying smiley face into a up and rising smiling face!
Grow it out! lol
The likes were at 599😯 I had to fix it for you Dan C
You da man!!
Good advice
Thank you! I hope you are doing well!
Dan C Bearded aye I am doing well... a bit busy, but doing well
@@TheBeardedDude good to hear from you!
Dan C Bearded thank you bro. I send you a DM on instagram 👊🏼👹⚒🇳🇱🇪🇺
I'm too gifted in the neck gap area they're reaching towards my ears 😂 def need to trim Dem sons of biscuits
haha guys would kill for that!!
That's great . But the boar brush is forbidden to muslims could you recommend something else?
Look for a cactus brush
And candy! 🤣👍

My suggestion is...find a good beard barber who will listen to you, and don't try it yourself! My bifocals prevent me from seeing it accurately. Other friends of mine with beards wonder and ask my why mine stays on point...I don't trust myself! 😂
Have to know your limitations, absolutely
Dude kickback? No way man....lol jk I just ordered some anywayz.
I know your frustration. I worked a suit and tie job for over 30 plus years. I was laid off 8 years ago and now work for myself. Now I have a big ass beard and love it...👍
Haha thanks David! Sorry I missed this comment, it was in the heart of my busy season
From india... kerala
