Beard grooming doesn't have to be hard. Today Eric is showing you how it's done in under 5 minutes.
Grab your comb, hairdryer, and some utility balm. Fresh out of the shower, towel dry your hair then comb out the tangles. Take a dime-sized amount of utility balm, emulsify, and work it into your beard.
Using a medium heat and medium flow setting on your hairdryer, start by blowing the hair upward, then left to right, right to left, then down from the chin to the neck. The last little tweaks are really just about getting the beard exactly where you want it, and locking in the final look. - แนวปฏิบัติและการใช้ชีวิต

Best beard styling video ever. Totally changed my 3 month, wavy beard when I was considering giving up. Much obliged, sir.
Eric, this video was a life saver! My beard is at nearly 5 months and it looked exactly like yours did at the start. Different colour, but same curls and same shape. I was actually going to shave it off recently as I hated the look.
Watched this video and followed almost exactly what you did and there was such a difference! So much tidier, better shape and very little kink or curl. Thank you dude!
Love the channel and the brand in general! Getting my first jar of utility balm in the post any day now to try it. Went for Tree Ranger but I'm tempted by old money for my next purchase.
Much love to the team from Belfast Northern Ireland! Keep on growin!
Just seen your comment, you still got your beard man? Hopefully lol
The BeardBrand sea-salt spray adds a lot of volume. My beard is just over two months old and since I started using the dryer/spray and barrel brush routine, it looks great.
A solid one mate!!! It's awesome to see the before and after takes! Provides the lads with perspective on what it takes to have a gnarly beard!! Keep up the great videos! CHEERS!
This is the best beard video I saw. I came back a few days later just to give this video a like. Try it, it really works.
Im 22 years old, two weeks ago I started using hair dryer and I have to say that is amazing and useful, dont be panic using it
Reached my yeard today Eric. Thanks for the inspiration. Time to beard on!
Michael Perry oh hell ya man! what a great achievement and glad to have helped on your journey!
Hey Eric, how about a video on dealing with the dreaded 'bed beard' ? Mornings are awful trying to get my face forest in place, even with balm and oil
Great vid Eric thanks
thx Eric! thats the reason why i have subscribed this channel!
Woo! Glad we are still cranking out content you value. We've just brought on a video editor, so we are excited to speed up the pace of our videos but still have the same great information delivered in a laid back manor. Just generally the same but better.
So glad I found this vid. I have two major waves in the front of my beard that are very hard to straighten. Your technique of blow drying to one side, then the other, then from under and then straight down has worked wonders! Only difference is I use a detangle brush as I blow dry instead of a comb. Thanks Eric!
"So glad I found this vid. I have two major waves in the front of my beard"....youre still at the beach right now?
Likewise brother..this vid was crisp and to the point..i too use the rounded beard brush after a wash not a comb..this method does give me a straightened kind of a look after..cheers!
didnt get the change to use the blowdryer...your looks blows me away
a week ago I received my order from Beardbrand. I got the beard oil, beard wash, beard softener, mustache wax (all in the Citrus scent) a brush and 3 Combs. Very happy. Thank you Eric.
Hell ya man! That's quite an awesome order. Thank you so much for your business and if there is anything you ever need, let me know.
Beardbrand thank you.

@@Beardbrandbring the spiced citrus back. No offense, but the current scents do not smell good to me and it's stopping me from buying your products.
Most Excellent dude!
i was about to give up on my yeard before i found this video. awesome. totally saved my beard lmao.
Nice vid mate, blow drying always gets the shape I want :)
Ya, it's a drug for me to get my "perfect" beard. I can't imagine styling without a blow dryer.
Another kick ass video E, another kick ass video.....beard on!👍
Woo! Glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for the comments!
This is the best beard video, beardbrand video, and TH-cam video on the Internet. Thanks!
Awesome! Glad you're enjoying the content. Feel free to shoot us some ideas for future videos!

ive tried a blow dryer off and on. and I actually have realised how much I love the shape of my beard not straight. some of you may want to embrace that. towel scrunch dry, balm and oil (very little) comb after and let it go naturally. Some dudes look great with a straighter beard and some dont. To each their own, beard on.
Agreed. Sometimes if I straighten too much it'll get whispy at the ends. My beard looks much more dense when it's naturally dried and "crunched." It's good to have styling options depending on the mood and time commitment.
Beardbrand Definitely
thanks for the tutorial
Felipe Keller Mirin those gainz brah. How long you been lifting?
What wax or gel do you use on your hair and how do you do your hair? Can you post a video of it?
officially two months strong and you guys are helping me keep the beard great. Would like to know, after eating what is the best way to clean any food or drink out of my beard without striping out the beard balm?
There's several videos on the channel that talk about this exact issue! check them out, cause it is a very common problem.
-Parker
Hey Eric! After about 2 inches of growth, my beard starts to curl inward on the right side of my chin and outward on the left. Any advice on how to deal with those kinds of curl?
Abaixo da Crítica got the same problem. Using beardwax atm but would love to see or hear the best method
Abaixo da Crítica blowdry it after a shower once or twice a week, combing through slowly with heat on low following the comb closely, apply beard oil before you blowdry and 90% of the time i do this ive used my beard wash and softener first. keeps it straight for around 2-3 days depending on how well you do it. Thats just my personal method
KingFenrir ROC what type of softener do you use?? Please could you give also the link from where you bought it?
Boa dica!
I’m growing out my beard currently and I have some patches and I want to just get it fuller and more alive, any products from your website that can help ? Thank you
As my beard has gotten longer. My morning ritual was usually was at about 5 mins. Lately its gotten to be 15 mins. I just have to get up a little earlier now. Small price to pay. Thanks for the great video.
A badass beard takes a little time to make it look just right.
Thanks for the feedback!
-Parker
You forgot the beard oil!!!!! =O
Thank you so much for these videos. Help a lot!!
Not to worry my friend, the beard oil was applied off camera ;)
Thank you for your feedback, it really helps us create the best videos we can for you guys! Beard on!

Dope beard
I accidentally bought a hair dryer with a cool setting. do they all have that?I know nothing about hair dryers, however I switch to the cool for 80% of my grooming. basically feels like a strong fan hitting me, I love it.
I'd say the majority of hair dryers do have a cool setting. It's definitely a great way to lock the hair into place.
My beard after 2/3 months it hurts my face a shit ton and feels really uncomfortable just from moving it a little bit.
That’s the man setting in
Congrats for this amazing video Eric!!! I have a question:
You always recommend not washing the beard every single day. But and about the hair? What is your procedure? Do you wash your hair daily or just at days washing your beard?
Marcello Salt I've tried the no shampooing and infrequent washing of my hair, but it's just too oily. I can get away with washing every other day, but no more than that.
Thanks for your answer!
I've been using a prototype soap we've been developing here in the office. It's a Utility Bar that we're planning on launching in 2017.
how long did it take to grow your beard on this video im 2 months in so longest iv ever last before shaving lol really want to grow 1 this time do i just let it keep growing and shave neck
hi Eric, you are great👍
You are great Alberto! Thank you for the comments.
nice video
Glad you enjoyed it!
I'm 17 and I have a pretty big beard. I comb my beard like this every morning when I get out of the shower. Since the hair is being pushed and held downwards by the comb, could this cause my beard hairline on my cheeks to recede?
Cual es el aceite o crema que se hecha???
What is the product that is thrown into the beard???
Recommendation for a hair dryer for my beard?
Awesome
i would like to grow a long beard. I have a beard which is not symmetrical and thick. one hair is long and another one is short.if want to grow a symmetrical long beard should i shave my beard completely and grow a new beard. waiting for your reply.
Is it just me or does Eric sound like a different person in the background commentary?
I believe he was sick when he was commentating on this video. -Parker
Beardbrand ah OK I was so confused lol. hope he's better.
+aqwdemonmaster that was my professional voice I was using on my voice over.
Beardbrand ah I see. good video
It feels like that was your normal voice; without the 'HELLO INTERNET IT'S YOUR BOY' character.. Cheers
Btw, just tried this out, works beautifully, thanks!
see how u have that curl in front under chin?well mines lays flat straight back against my throat. how can i get it to unroll to the front so it can hang down from my jaw line,instaed of it laying flat on the front of throat
Eric, what's with the sort of horseshoe patch under your chin? Do you trim it that way or is just kind of how yours grows?
How long did it take you to grow your beard that long?
Ohohoo it looks so easy doing it when you have a straight long beard. Mine is dry and curly, so if I do it like that, HALF of it will come out on the comb, not to mention the process also hurts like hell. I gotta tend to mine very carefully, slowly... :(
same here...
Same here bro I use a boar bristle brush. Might switch to a more wide tooth comb in the future.
Mau Vasconcellos bro same here. But, I tried the method this video gives, just slowly and carefully, and today my main man mane looks REALLY good. Seriously, somebody come over here and see how good I look!
I relate to this. My Beard is coarse and curly and hella thick. I wish this channel had more content that caters to us and more curly beard dudes
same here :) would be nice to see Eric comment at this
Super.
oddly satisfying
Hi guys, I was curious about the heat factor with blow drying...
My partner has a blow dryer with a cold setting, would it be safer and less harmful to my beard to blow dry cold and would it still give as good an effect on styling? This makes the whole process take longer, bit I'm happy to take a few extra minutes, Cheers guys
Yeah, the cold setting is a life saver. You can use it closer to your beard and really get the style you want without damaging your hair. The hotter settings you have to hold further away. Cheers!
-Josh
Awesome, thanks Josh!
Heat damages head hair, I think beard hair is more delicate
after doing this avg how much hairs do u notice fall
how often can you blow dry your beard?
My beard always feels wiry after I blow dry it, I get the right style I like however, what can I do after I blow dry to help that?
I think most of us have this problem - I personally started blowing the air from the top and combed the beard on the side downwards - and for the most challenging part 'The chin', as Eric does here I comb from left to right and right to left, as combing downwards makes it to curl up later on. Also, comb that you use is equally imp - use the round hair brush with smaller bristles while doing the above and don’t be afraid to use some products prior…Happy Bearding!!
I use this tutorial every morning.
Right on! Hope it helps!
- Jack
Eric, so this is a beard channel but i've YET to see a video of you people using a beard trimmer live on video showing a proper execution of a medium sized beard with a trimmer at home doing it yourself (not just cutting the edges) and showing what direction is best to trim in especially if ur hair dont grow all same direction
Ya, I've got a beardstache video planned but I actually don't own a beard trimmer. So there is some research on my part to knock out.
Beardbrand btw eric iv got a question, just ordered my first beard brush..is it ok to brush hair while its semi wet or its better dry? and will it damage the brush if the brush becomes oily from beard oil or water?
You can brush your beard while its semi wet for styling purposes. Brushing it with products in your beard won't damage the brush, but you might get some residue from the oil, but it should rinse out.
-Parker
Thanx dude 😄😄
No problem my man!
-Parker
Winter started affecting your voice but still sounds good... beard on
Ya, I was sick when I recorded this. Getting better now though.
take care of yourself, we need your tips buddy!
I'm feeling much better now. The troubles of having a 3 year old who touches everything.
I only use organic coconut oil, £3.50 at the local shop. No need for expensive beard oils, beard is lovely and healthy 🙂
How you can eat food ?
where I find this wax for beard?
I've been growing my beard for about 2 months now and it's getting pretty long, there's only one thing. The right side I'm noticing is a lot thinner than the left! I have no idea how to fix this!
+Jimmy Miller my right side is also thinner than my left. Most people don't notice. It's like if you have one foot bigger than the other. There is no fix to it, only learning how to embrace who you are and what makes you unique.
No beard oil? Btw I love your stuff
You don't have to use beard oil if you are using utility balm. It's an either / or thing when it comes to utility balm vs beard oil.
i find on day on dont use oil or balm, my beard looks thinker,and fuller,when i use oil/balm,it looks so then,could u explain why
Are you combing or brushing your beard down after you apply the product? If so it can make your beard look shorter and less full potentially. Try applying the oil, fluffing out the beard with a comb or brush.
-Parker
i got kent 9t large comb,and kent boar brush,im try the blowing all up 1st, then layer it down
I have a serious problem with my beard. It is extremely DRY!
Even after applying almond oil, it becomes dry again after 20-30 minutes. I need some serious help.. I need a moisturizer which can keep it moisturized for the whole day..!! Can you help me BeardBrand?
Hey man, our Utility Balm would be perfect in this instance. Check out the Utility Balm video on our page to learn more about it!
-Parker
There are so many utility balms here: www.beardbrand.com/search?q=Utility+Balm+
Which one is the best for my beard?
..and why can't I find our products on Amazon man. I am asking this coz I live in India
I know what you mean. I also got a dry beard on, and taking care of it is not as easy as it looks in these videos, unfortunately. I also live abroad, and buying from BeardBrand would be kinda hard.
Mohd Tabish there products are on amazon for like 3-4 times the price. I bet they are quality but paying for 4 times the price for a beard oil or any other beard accessories will suck when you want to keep your beard.
Ok someone please respond to my question. What’s up with this in comparison to using sea salt spray? Salt on your beard makes sense as opposed to putting oil or balm in initially if you want the comb to grasp the hair. Most videos i see don’t mention sea salt spray bu an oil or something. So which is it?? I’m beginning to get the impression that you’re marketing more products than u can possibly use. Just my take on all of this. To compile all your advice via the videos one has to wonder. Carlose even made the comment that he sometimes oils his beard three times a day. Is anyone getting my drift?
Different people have different routines and that's what we choose to share. Not everyone does everything the same way and there isn't one right or wrong way. Different beards, different textures, and different styles all require different products and techniques. Learn how we all do it, try it, and go with the routine that works best for you.
There are millions of people who watch our videos; there isn't one guide we could create that would work for everyone. -Eric
Never used salt spray. Sounds intriguing. But when you have sensitive or dry skin, salt could harm your skin, I think. Personally I use alot of olive oil to keep my skin and beard moist and in shape. From what I heard, its what the ancient greek did.
I spread the oil on a fine comb and go through the beard, then pressing the hair with the handpalms down and into shape. I only use a tiny bit of the pricy beard oil at the end of the routine for the woody scent.
i. can't. wait. til this trend. DIIIIES.
I have my morning routine as well but the worst part about it all is the fact that I have so many tangles in my beard and combing sometimes can be a pit painful. How do I completely get rid of beard tangles?
Use a beard brush instead of a comb, trust me, it helps out a lot :)
YesItsMe what's the difference?
+Dorian Gonzalez i hate my knowledge of English language at some points. This is one of those moments :-D I'll try to explain to the best of my abilities :-)
see, a comb, for some reason, which is firstly just one row of the parts that actually go into a beard, so If yours is tangled up, it won't get through as easily, while, if you use a brush, try to get one with three rows atleast, as it will be easier to go through your beard while combing it. Go slow, multiple times, and yours beard will get untangled. if you want, give me your email address, I'll send you a picture of the brush i use :-)
Hope i helped :-)
P.S.
sorry about my English, as I stated at the beginning :-)
Hey Eric. do you really use the blow drier every day? i heard it was bad to use it every day, personally i use it once - twice a week just when my beard seems extra curly as it helps with straightening, combing and oil absorbsion. cheers.
Illious Gookus yup I do use the hair dryer everyday because it's actually healthier for your beard and hair over air drying. Here's the scientific study to back me up: www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3229938/
Keep in mind proper technique is the key.
my beard is not as majestic as yours Eric. I don't use balm just beard shampoo twice a week and oil every morning before I leave for work and last but not least a nice beard comb, a minute or two and thats it. Great video as always Beardbrand 👍👍
Thank you for the positive feedback!
-Parker
+Simon Kerr thanks for sharing your routine Simon. I always love reading your comments and appreciate you taking the time to watch my videos. Beard on! -eric
Beardbrand Your videos are always a joy to watch. Keep up the good work. Beard on!!
😊👍
do I need to blow dry it daily or it stays for couple of days? I will like to give it a try though....my beard is a real mess
If you're having issues with your beard puffing up daily, then yes, you may have to blow dry it every morning for a bit.
BUT, keep in mind, doing this will "train" the hair to lay a little flatter, so over time, you may not need to blow dry it every single day.
- Jack
Guys, i have a serious problem my bears out of hair from my under lip 2 cm to my chin... any one could help 😪
Every night after My shower I put my bread oil on and comb it but I notice my beard sheds a lot after I do this help !!!!plz
Totally normal my man. Unfortunately the more you comb and brush your beard, the more you will shed. When you comb through it, you're removing existing loose hairs.
-Parker
hey Eric do you blow dry your hair daily?... your hair texture is very similar to mine, so was just curious if the medium heat daily will do any damage?
jeffrine savio check out this article we just wrote on hair drying. www.beardbrand.com/blogs/urbanbeardsman/hair-drying-and-heat-damage
Beardbrand ok cool... thanks a lot :)
Hey, I need some help from somebody, whether it's the comments or you guys, when I shave my neck line I cannot stand getting around my big Adams apple and I was wondering if someone had a technique to combat this, or just tough through it.
I definitely have the same issue man. What I do is take a big gulp and pull my adams apple upwards then shave over the area. You can also pull your skin to one side or the other. Good question!
-Parker
Beardbrand Thank you! This has definitely helped!
👊Beard ON Budd.
BEARD ON
How do you even eat with that stache? I have to trim mine cause it gets in the way of eating and gets on my nerves. Lol
We've actually made a few videos on how to eat with a big mustache and beard.

brooo im 4-5 months in and my beard taking forever to groooooow! How long did it take you to have that length of beard? thx bro
That seems like a 6 months old beard... But this vary from person to person.... Give your beard some time and you will be good to go
Its takes months
Hey Beardbrand
I haven't shaved since 6 weeks because i want to grow a short full beard. I already know that I can grow one and also can see the Little hairs. But the hairs in my chin and cotlet area Are way longer. It starts looking a bit weird. Is it ok to trimm those areas or should I still let them grow?
Sorry for My Bad english I'm from Germany :)
I say you dont trim it yet, wait for a couple of months and then start to shape it. Other wise you wont get to the lengtht that you're looking for in a long time.
Eduardo Marin Ok, thanks for the advice. I will wait another 2-3 months before I touch it.
Eduardo Marin, you need to come work for us man! Exactly right, wait till your beard is full, even if that means looking a little rugged for a few weeks. Then you will have the necessary means to trim it to your liking.
-Parker
Hahaha, actually i'm a blogger so i'm online all day long. If you're looking for more people or launching your products in Latin America just give me a call :P
And keep the awesome videos coming! Cheers! :)
Beardbrand Alright, thank you too.
intro song?
Thats for soft beard...what about tough curly beard ???
My beard is soft because I'm using beard softener, and great products. While every beard is different, I think you can achieve similar results with a wider comb and same techniques.
اريد أن احصل عليها ممكن
how to gain 3 inches in length in 1 easy step? foreal, I did. I never paid attention to all that real estate underneath my chin. wasn't until my coily hairs from there came out and I stretched it out. 3 inches longer in length. I never blow dried that part. Just did it and now my beard is wayyyy longer
Wow, that moustache is actually covering his entire mouth
sometimes I wanna buy beardbrand merchandise but then I remember that I can't even grow a beard
Our Utility Balm, Sea Salt Spray, Cologne, and Styling Balm were all designed for people with our without beards.
@@Beardbrand Do you still have a cologne?
Aw can u now??
my beard is so curly what should I use please help me dude
Get some beard softener and do a deep softening treatment in the shower for about 5+ minutes. After that rinse it off, and apply some beard oil. That will help relax the hair then follow this same technique with a wider tooth comb and slower pace. Will help release the curls.
Shave the beard and I can say Praise the sun!
Ok👍
When your blow dryer gets right in front of the camera, holy white balance.
I had a set WB on this video, but was struggling because I was working with natural light and it was a partly cloudy day. If you go through quickly you can see when the sun gets covered up and when it opens up.
Im 16...
Just started growing my first beard
Starting early, I like it! Good luck on the journey my man!
-Parker
+Beardbrand ill try and update you on Eric's IG im pretty much that one dude in grade 11 who has an almost full beard btw great lumberjack beard oil... Smells phenomenon!

What product do you use in your hair Eric ?
They have some products on the Beardbrand website. Even the Utility Balm works for the hair.
The Beardbrand sea salt spray is what Eric uses nowadays!
-Parker
How long ago did you cut your hair??
+sprocaster it was a eleven months ago and I did a video on it here: th-cam.com/video/aa3tw6wg9Kc/w-d-xo.html
Beardbrand thank you!!
The Engels beard
You gotta sick stache buddy. Mine is decent... better than many even, but no where close to yours!
What can i do if i can't grow a beard ? :(
yannick930 chest hair is an okei substitute :)
how's the minoxidil update man?
jeffry yohanes wym
Oh, I'm still using it daily as regular but I'm going to try to slowly scale back my usage and see if I can keep what I have up there. I'm not entirely sure it's made my head hair thicker and it's probably because I'm not using it 2x per day. I'm leaning towards just embracing my MPB and getting cuts that take that into consideration. I may change my mind after getting off it.
Beardbrand I think that stuff pretty amazing tho I have to import it kinda expensive from the original price here to Indonesia, my dad already use 2 bottles now and he do grow a lot of hair and feels super itchy! however I do grow a pretty amazing sideburn and a thicker moustache from what I used to grow! love to know your thoughts man 🍻

Still doing this beard thing eric?
JOSIP PERIC apparently. 🌚
When you think you have a beard then you see this guy 😕🌚
what kind of colour is your beard ?
his beard is mostly a ginger red with some light brown and some blonde ish
I'd generally say it's a red beard, or ginger beard as "Simple The Best" stated.
lol xD
nice combo with the brown hair ! xD
He look the guy in the Lorax 😂
