    I know this video is 3 years old, but I really appreciated the demo and good explanation. I am in my 40s and grew out a beard for the first time. I had a barber shape my neckline, but with everything being so expensive, I needed to be able to trim at home. This video helped make that happen, and the end result looks great. I'm going for more of a "this is Sparta!" than "it's over Anakin, I have the high ground." :)

    I trying to my beard ever since I was able to grow facial hair but to not avail. I never under stood that there was more to just growing it ( grooming conditioning etc). I want to simple say that I enjoy your videos. It offers great advice on not just growing your beard but growing your overall character to become a more complete individual. I have started to invest in your beard products and I see the change just after a few day of use. Your products are amazing. I am very pleased with my purchase and I do intend to purchase more in the future.

It's been coming along pretty well but I've always had similar issues with the wispy stuff at the base near the neck that drove me nuts and just didn't look right. This video was an absolute gamechanger! Instantly improved the look without having to take much length off at all. Thanks so much!

      Woo - welcome to the party, man. 🎉 Depending on where you're at in the journey, it's common to navigate through patchy areas in the beard within the first 90 days of growing. Depending on how how your facial hair grows, you can work with different styling techniques to help disguise them. Either way, we've got you covered in the journey - let us know how we can support you. Cheers! 😎 -Sly
