Bearded TMBers and Such

I’m prob shaving tomorrow morning

All my hair grows fast which is annoying

 

Myself and 2 buddies from work are trying the yeard (not shaving or cutting hair until Memorial Day 2019).

About ready to invest in some beard balm or beard butter to keep this thing under control.

 

Are you unemployed or homeless or something?

 

Maybe a little of all 3....

 

Didn’t trim it for 5 months until this week. Feel like a whole different person.

 

You inspired me lank

 

Did the same for Lockn last year. Kept the soul patch too.

 

I need a new beard trimmer. Currently working with a $20 amazon version that has held up well for a couple of years but I would like to invest in one that is a little better quality.

 

Afternoon bump

 

I just use my Wahl hairclippers. But I don't trim my beard often. I will edge the top of my upper lip to keep that out of my mouth.

My old beard trimmer died about a month ago. I bought a braun mgk3980. So far, I like it a lot. It's $55 on amazon.

 

Is this the one you have?

 

The one I have cost like 25 bucks at CVS. Don't overthink it

 

Beard oil and conditioner? Never tried either, but not wanting to drop a bunch of money.

 

Coconut oil

 

What an unhelpful response lol

 

I get whatever beard oil is at Walmart. Seems to make a difference for me.

 

I've tried a bunch. My favorite is

 

Yup

 

I have used this as well.

 

Woodsman Beard Oil Cedar Scented Leave in Beard Conditioner Keeps Facial Hair Soft and Moisturizes Skin All-Natural Oils Jojoba, Argan and Sweet Almond Essential Oils 1 Ounce

Thats what i got on amazon before walmart picked some up

 

I've found the liquids to be a little more greasy and sometimes overpowering in scent. Although in full disclosure, I have a very manly and powerful beard

 

how do i even make my beard look ok

 

Need a picture for a reference point

blindly - don’t shampoo it, balm or oil, wooden comb that is only for your beard.

 

My spirit gay, Johnny Van Ness says your beard line is across your Adam’s apple. Had not heard that before.

 

what? really? is there a pic as an example?

 

Idk who that is but he’s right. All these people that try to carve out a jaw line look awful

 

Heres pics. I dont shampoo it.

 

It’s in an episode of queer eye on Netflix somewhere.

 

Yeah ive always heard the same.

 

Oh god i know, my buddy has one hat's awful. Like really bad.

 

I have a friend who cant grow facial hair above his jawline but refuses to keep the rest shaved off

 

That’s how I do it The hair on my throat/underjaw irritates me

 

Step 1: Know where to stop
Look straight in the mirror, holding your head upright. Any hair you can see below your chin from this angle definitely has to go. Now.

Rest your finger horizontally on top of your adam's apple. That's where the bottom of your beard line should be. If you have a longer neck, you can to two fingers.

Odin your beard looks fine. Are you going for a tighter look? Line up the cheeks a little bit, and then take clippers and knick off the whisper parts, where you barely cut any whiskers. That will go a long way in cleaning it up and looking more clean cut. But Id ont think your beard looks bad or unkempt or anything

 

You'd be better off just shaving the whole thing. That's a bad look.

 

Imo its a bad look and makes people look like they have double chins.

 

Yeah id like it to be tighter for sure.

I comb balm through it each morning, i just dont know how to trim it really.

 

guys, this is my beard


jk

 

My beard is thicker than all shown above so it’s not like a sharp line across my jaw except when I trim it all the way down 1-2x a year. Fuck y’all ladies tell me my beard is sexy

 

The best thing to do is pick a clipper guard and do you’re entire head and face the same length.

 

Just take your clippers and trim downwards. not upwards.. Barely touching your beard, knocking off the stray whiskers. That will go a long way. Put a 2 guard on the clippers until you trust yourself.

 

How long has it been since you guys have had a completely naked face? I think I'm at around 4 years.

 

9/6/14. Before that like 2009.

 

Have had a goatee since 1994, full beard for the last two years. Without regular trimming and beard balm I'd look like Yukon Cornelius.
