Woop woop congratulations on the affiliate link for 2024!!
Another thing I think is an upgrade, is that it remembers the last temp you used and sets to that with just one click. I had the older version. After 7 months it started to malfunction. Aberlite was quick to reply, and shipped me out a new one same day. I was surprised to see it was an upgraded version. I don’t necessarily love the 10 min timer, as it doesn’t flow with my routine and was always turned off by the time I got to it. That’s not a huge deal tho, and I absolutely love this thing. Game changer when it comes to wild mustaches and sideburns.
Good feedback and great customer service! Remembering the temp is a nice touch too. And yes, mustache and sideburns… cmon now! Amazing!
LOVE my Aberlite Pro. I use it every day now. I have the pre December 2023 model, and I have no issues with it. It heats up quickly enough for me. Just plug it in when starting my routine, and its always ready to go. I used to only use my cheaper heated brush rarely, because it was hit or miss, but the new Aberlite pro I got is fantastic! I have been having good luck with 280-300 as it is a more gentle heat, and the difference of the ionic generator makes a noticeable difference in the styling and feel of the hair. I used to get weird flip ups or dips with my smaller heated brush, that had fairly large temperature swings, even though it supposedly was always displaying the same temperature. Full disclosure it was the Aberlite EDC, which I would not recommend. Small head and comb size, widely swinging temperature, and the back got so extremely hot, that you HAD to keep the silicone guard on it at all times. Maybe the PRO back would get really hot if I used a higher temperature, but the temperature of the back is nothing compared to that EDC I had.
Love all of this feedback from experience, thank you!!
@@DanCBearded You're welcome! Glad you were able to help in the development of this amazing product!
I upgraded from Aberlite Max to the Pro about 3 weeks ago. I love the Pro. With the Max, I almost dreaded using it because of the size and not that maneuverable. I love the slimline Pro, it is so easy to use. I actually look forward to using it. My beard stays styled all day. I cannot say enough good things about the Aberlite Pro.
Awesome feedback! Thank you
Truly the best and it’s the heated brush I use on my beard literally daily!
So good!
Do you use it on your entire beard? Or just the mustache?
I have the Aberlite Pro and have used it for about 3 years now. Excellent product and no problems. Great video update Dan!
Wow, that’s fantastic longevity!!
This is great. I had no idea they made changes to the pro. Thanks!
You bet!
Thanks for the video. I upgraded to the Pro last year about a month before the updated Pro came. The Pro is a great tool and Aberlite is a great company to work with. I watch one of your older videos about applying heat to your beard. After playing around with the heat settings I used 280 as my go to heat setting. I found that 365 straightened my beard a little too much and 280 does straighten my beard and leaved some texture to my hair. Wirth the texture of my hair, being an African American, the 280 setting works well for me.
Love it GHunt!
Thanks for reaffirming that I might need this. The price point is a big deal for me right now, but wouldn’t have been a few years ago. I’ve added some products that you’ve recommended and my beard is now the healthiest part of me. I’ve been hitting vitamins hard for months hoping my heart would get better which it has a bit and I’m mostly seizure free now. I’m hoping to drive soon and be able to get a job. In the meantime I want my beard to look great. Keep growing, fathering, teaching, and most importantly stay positive!
So happy to hear about the positive changes!!
I've had the aberlite Pro for over a year now, love it. We'll built, works great and makes a huge difference for styling problem areas. Thanks Dan!
Great to hear!
Great video. I bought the Go 2 when you had the 20% code a few weeks ago and I absolutely love it on my stache. Thanks for all the tips and tricks.
That’s so awesome to hear!
I got the Pro for Christmas thanks to someone's recommendation...
Thanks Dan! It's great.
Let's gooo! Love to hear that
Great video as usual Dan. Just got the Aberlite Pro for Christmas this year. Delighted with it. Genuinely, thank you, I would never have heard of Aberlite or have any idea of what I'm doing to my beard without you and your content. Diolch 👍
That’s so awesome to hear!
I love getting baked at 420 😂
😂
Great timing on this video Dan I was planning on ordering the Aberlite pro when I get my check Wednesday I’ve bought 3 different $30 cheap heated brushes from Walmart and all 3 did ok for maybe a month and then all 3 went down hill from there so I’ve decided to just pony up and get the best I can’t wait to get it keep doing what you’re doing you have helped me more than you know on my beard journey so far thanks Dan
Heck yeah!!
Yeah, I haven't even had a chance to use mine after seeing you recommend it in another video. I've got the newer model.
What's really cool, is I pulled out the box to look for the manual or anything written on the box.
I pulled up the insert to hold the brush (first time) and voila. There is a little box with a cleaning brush and cleaning spray under the insert. So this video was really useful!
Oh snap, that’s awesome!
Ohhhhhhhh the Dan jokes 😂😂
I got an Aberlite pro for Christmas!!!! Best gift evvvverrrrrr!
Thanks Dan!
Have to bring the occasional joke 😂 and that’s an awesome gift!
Checking out the video as I’m deciding between this and the wireless one
Heck yeah!
I use the aberlite EDC and heat is amazing and a game changer
Awesome!
Seems cool.
I'm using a Hot Tools beard straightener right now.
When I need a new one, I'll check it out.👊👍
Awesome!
Wait so the new one has an app???? That's pretty cool. 🤘🤘 I love my Aberlite. I started out using a different, cheaper brush and it was just awful. I also didn't know what I was doing and hadn't dialed in my heat setting, but it just didn't do much at most temps I tried. Then I was lucky enough to win the Aberlite Pro (just like the one you're reviewing but I guess the version just before because there's no app capability) and I also learned more about how to style my beard and what temp works for me. And the Aberlite is just great! Styles my side beard just great, no frizz once I figured out proper temp. It's just a great product!
Awesome to hear!
Such a good idea to bring the pro when traveling! If anyone has issues styling a thick, long, curly beard check out Dan’s video on applying heat in layers, game changer for me!
Heck yeah, thanks buddy!
Learnin’ more an’ more…….thks!
Glad to hear it!
Love my Aberlite Pro! I've been jonesing for the wireless though lol.
Haha I hear you!
I started minimal temperatures like 250F and still had good results just took longer, but i wanted and needed the extra time while figuring out how to use it, how to dial in style i wanted. I use 320F now because i know what im trying to do, don’t need the extra time. Personally always been confused why these devices allow such high temps above 420F etc, but love my Aberlite regardless, one of the top products and biggest changes out of anything I’ve done for my beard!
About styling i think the biggest error most run into, i did for sure, is simply thinking you need to push it into your beard more then is needed. Good tools, especially these you can style just fine gliding along over the hair no need to push inwards excessively.
The push is so true!
Hey Dan nice one.....I have no expirence with aberlite.
Great company!
Thanks Dan!
No beard baking, guys!!!!
Don’t do it! Haha
The Aberlite Pro is a great straightener. I enjoyed using it. I had mine for just over a year when it stopped heating. The display showed it getting hotter but the unit was not actually heating. The warranty is now 2 years, but that does not apply to older units which I guess still have just a 1 year warranty. Since mine is not covered by the warranty, I am not sure if I will buy another. Was hoping that it would work longer for the price of the unit.
Very fair feedback and I appreciate you sharing. I’m glad the warranty is now two years. It that is a bummer that yours is not, and that is disappointing. I agree it should have lasted longer.
I'll just get baked...then I won't care what my beard looks like 😋...Have a good 1 Dan ✌
Thanks Pmillz
I love the go, only issue is the screen brightness for me, but I understand a dim screen uses less power
That does make sense, but they have improved it now after feedback!
I took the plunge on this at $105 plus another 15% off. Hope it works for me. This beard's getting expensive. 😅
Awesome Keith!
I have two beard brushes, I’ve been thinking of trying an Aberlite but I’m old and crusty lol
Haha they will alwYs be here. No rush!
Good morning
Morning!
Great vid.
Is this still the best option?
For corded, yes! I use the cordless Go2 more, but this is great too
@@DanCBearded I bought a cheap Amazon one years ago and it burnt my beard.
Never bothered since.
I usually chop my beard down at this length, but always regret it.
Definitely need one of these or the Go2.
I will use your link whichever I go for 👍🏻
@kevinkeelan354 🤝
I might have to check out the updated version. My current Pro seems to have a short or something wrong with the power cable. If I turn it a certain way when plugged in, it will turn off.
Interesting! Reach out to aberlite and let them know. They have a great warranty and have even worked with some outside of it (of course that’s not guaranteed though)
Should I use beard oil before I straighten, or just use water to dampen my beard? Love the aberlite straightener.
Damp beard, beard oil, wait 3-5 minutes, heat. 🤝
I’ll take participation award for fourth 🍻
My man 🤝
Second, I was late to the party.
The SILVER!
@@DanCBearded I’ll take it! Lol
Love Aberlite. I’ve not had to deal with their customer service, but their products are spot on. I own both the Pro and the Go2 and I love them both. I use the Go2 daily and the pro will be for my travels. Wonderful products!
Great video Dan!
Which heat shield or spray should you use because you said in a previous video that you didn’t like theirs and you didn’t recommend an alternative.
I don’t recommend any heat shield spray. A high quality beard oil will always be a better option
So, being a beards man, and someone who has followed many beard channels ... I've seen many videos about heat and the beard. I have been on the impression that heat is bad for the beard. Is this indeed true? ... I've avoided blow drying my beard ... let alone using any other devices that 'heat' the beard. Thoughts on this? Is this something that has changed over the last couple years? Serious question ...!
It has never changed with me! I have been using heat from the very start, including my first beard morning routine video. The heat damage comes from user error and myth with associating it with head hair damage from women who dye/treat their hair. Here is the perfect video for you on the topic: th-cam.com/video/RmW1Ut5OPI0/w-d-xo.htmlsi=OZINaIAxy_LhdkJQ
@@DanCBearded thank you Teacher!! Much appreciate your response!
I can't believe I'm still using a blow dryer and round brush.
Nothing wrong with that!
Still don’t have an Aberlite. This year I will have to change that and get on the train 🫡. They look so good and its nice to see they are continuing to upgrade and innovate!
Cheers Dan 🎩
Keep us posted!
Hey Dan, I got a question. I have a really curly and wavy beard and always straighten it to gain a lot of length.
Anyways, I know you say not to go above 360°F, but a lot of companies say to go 390°F+ for curly and wavy beards. Some even say 410°F+, so what temp should I be using??
I'm so confused.
I highly recommend not going above 365° but some beards can get away with it. Maybe give it a try and see how it feels?
@@DanCBearded Thanks, I'll give it a go.
I purchased my aberlite pro back in July of ‘23. How would I know if I have the upgraded version or the older version?
I do not believe it was updated back then. Not sure other than reaching out to them to ask
@@DanCBearded mine shuts off after 10 minutes, however it stops at 400° (not that I care about going any higher). With my first cheap-o straightener, I would go up as high as possible. I know for a fact that I was over doing it! My preferred temp is 340° for the initial straightening. Then I drop it down to 280° when I do the final touches that require a little longer approach. Due to my current length of beard, I am fortunate to be able to come up from the back of my beard and utilize my palm as the backboard. I do this multiple times until I get the desired strangeness, then give ONE LIGHT SWIPE on all sides for direction. It’s important to stop at that point though and hit it with a cool shot. Any more heat after that causes it to fly away and do things I don’t like. Hope that can help someone new who may try and go all out at 400° and damage their lush mane. Keep on trying! You’ll definitely be walking around looking goofy once and awhile until you find the style or styles that you can work with.
I’ve been looking at them on their website any purchased after December are the upgraded ones I believe
Any recommendations for us Uk guys, or is it worth waiting the month for it to arrive? Hate being in the UK 🤣🤣
The availability of the U.S. products and variety is sooo much better. Seven potions is a good uk option though
@@DanCBearded Yeah I do use them, sorry I was commenting on the beard straighteners. Do you know of any good ones in the UK or anyone else? Or would you recommend to wait for the Aberlite to arrive from US..?
@Matt08088 ohhhhh, that makes sense 😂 no, I am not aware of any in the Uk
@@DanCBearded darn it, looks like I'm waiting then 😂 Thanks Dan 👍🏼
How is it different from the EDC
As mentioned, I have not used the edc in many years, so I am by no means an expert here. Looking at the pictures it seems there are certainly major similarities. It looks like there are structural differences with the grips and and design
I struggled to believe that the Pro was that much better to be worth the price... Well I can attest that it IS!!!
I had the Compact (Pocket) from Aberlite, it was a great heated brush, and 1000X better than the original cheap heated brush I had. My original heated brush was made for head hair, was too big for facial hair use, and was limited in the heat adjustability. Plus it was very UNCOMFORTABE to use, it was convex, the bristles were taller in the center than the edges, and the space from the top of the bristles to the heating element was too large.
The Compact was a TON better the shape is concave, it was more comfortable, the distance from the tips to the heating element was better, and the heat adjustability was better.
The Pro is easily that much better than the Compact, the bristles are arranged more comfortably, the profile is flat and the space from the tip to the heating element is less than the other two I've had. The temperature is even more adjustable, I personally like that it goes even lower. I use 280 degree setting, and love that it remains set each time I use it, it heats up amazingly fast, and shuts itself off if I forget...
I shaved my beard to a solo mustache in November, and am just at 6 weeks growth back for the beard, but I can already see the effects of the brush when comparing photos from the last time I was in this stage, I love it!
Man this is such good feedback. Thank you!!!
Where to find in Europe?
I’m not sure
i 420 everyday, but never in my beard.
I have a video on that too! Haha th-cam.com/video/PI_K_ktp55Q/w-d-xo.htmlsi=px37L30gR6HYRCuT
