Listening to this vid, it struck me that growing a beard isn't a thing you do. It's a discipline. It's like zen for your face. It teaches you to have patience. It teaches you to not expect immediate gratification. It teaches you how to nurture. It reminds you that you deserve to be good to yourself.

That's a great way to put it! Grow a beard can really help you grow as a person too. Well said! -Josh

I actually just shaved everything tonight to start over and do something minimal. I had about 8 months of growth and I couldn't get it where it made me happy, so I decided to start over and keep what I like. I'm with you.

Your beard is looking WONDERFUL!!!!

Jeff, you have the greatest beard. True beard inspiration for me haha. Love your videos man, keep it up.

This video has philosophical implications. I love it.

I agree. What ever makes you feel good about yourself is OK

I believe every beard is personal choice. However, I am going on 8 week growth and never thought it would be a minimalist beard. But, you have a point. I still think you rock a nice minimalist beard. Truthfully, you and Beard Baron are my inspirations. Happy 2017

I had exactly the same experience. I was in front of a mirror four times a day mucking about with this or that. A couple of weeks ago I tightened things up a bit and I'm enjoying my beard now more than ever. Another benefit is that it has reproportioned my mustache which is now super awesome.

Great video. Kinda like a beard therapy session . Also may I recommend a good comb /boar brush even for minimalist beards

God, I'm so jealous of his beard lol.

I am very envious of your beard man, also love the epic mustache.

I always look forward to Jeff's videos on Beardbrand. I like to keep my beard fairly groomed and don't let it get too crazy with the random waves and curls. I agree with you Jeff, having a minimalist beard helps you enjoy your beard but not have to obsess about it. And I am all about the beard oil! Keep the videos coming Jeff!

I am a huge fan of the minimalist beard. My profile picture is old, but where I am at now is maintaining between 4-6 months of length. It has good length that feels nice but still works with various looks. Great video sir!

Having had different styles of facial hair I am on the minimalist beard look now. It doesn't mean unkept, but I've found that length that is long and full enough to satisfy me with the minimal amount of hassle. I kept finding myself in the mirror too much trying to comb out waves and getting my beard 'just right', because some small part would annoy me. Now I can wash it, give it a towel dry and be good to go for the day. In between washes I use beard oil to keep it soft and moisturized. I do some trims when I think I need them and decide if I want to go a little longer or a little shorter. Having a minimal beard doesn't mean you can't update it. For me I tend to have a longer beard in the Fall and Winter, then go shorter in the Spring and Summer. If you're chasing after a style just because and it's frustrating, the enjoyment won't be there. Take a step back to something manageable. At the end of the day it's all about doing what makes yourself happy and many times less really is more.

A bit late to comment, maybe never to cross your radar, Jeff. Just wanted to say your conservative and organized style is great, because it helps put into perspective for me, the value of minimalism with the concept of growing and maintaining a manly beard. I'm truly excited about growing out my first full beard finally at 41!

I agree with you, growing mine out now, and will go for the minimalist look. Seems a little easier in a hectic lifestyle to care for and still handle what life throws our way. Keep up the great videos.

You just keep making videos that reassure what I'm thinking is common. I like the idea of keeping what makes you happy. I kept the mustache after getting a big chunk of length taken off but am thinking about taking it shorter and almost "retraining" it. I'd like for it to be more minimalist. There's a lot of tough choices but it all grows back if you make the wrong one.

Definitely definitely with you on this and you're absolutely not alone, I'v recently adapted this mentality and I have never been happier or more satisfied with my beard, you know what else I have noticed ? My beard is even healthier and the oil and care for my minimalist beard is somehow optimized , glad I'm not alone with that mindset !

Love this - goes for all grooming, that sweet spot - just enough but not too much. Simplicity in a complicated world is the holy grail. And using fewer of the best things, doing fewer but only the best things gives more quality of live. Minimalism rocks.

Hey, its all good! What ever beard length someone is capable of growing, or feels comfortable growing, AND can own is beardtastic! A tight minimal Arabic look works best for me. I'm growing my hair long again, which there is a lot of, ...a lot!, so keeping my beard to a minimum keeps my head from appearing to over whelmed and heavy.

I totally agree Jeff! I can't wait to be freed from the tricky areas of my beard. I'm about a month away from accomplishing my first yeard and I've been thinking a lot about what I am going to do. I have no intention of going clean, but just how short to go. After watching your video I want to just knock down the "rough" areas that make my beard look unruly. I still want a full beard just not a scraggly one.

Hi Jeff..., I totally agree with you. I am growing back a beard now (I used to live in North Africa so a beard was just normal there, although I did wear it very short and trimmed). I decided now to go longer than a very short trimmed beard but actually just natural (and not very long though) I guess it would be a medium beard. A bit shorter than what you have in this video. The principles you explain in this video are exactly how I feel about having a beard. Jus the myself with my own natural look.

Glad to see you again Jeff...I like the beard on my chin and the sides tight to face.

you said so much that needs to be said. thank you for explaining every angle of thought and individual differences that go into so many parts of beards. I'm loving all the beard brand videos the most.

I had the same epiphany. I a long beard and I was spending tons of time on it. The attention also got a bit crazy. Random women wanted to touch the beard...seriously wtf. Anyway, I think that the awesomeness of a beard is not dictated by length. I stiff have a short beard and use oil because, like you, I love the stuff. Cheers

I started this a few months ago and it works for me. I let my barber trim and shape it once a month and keep at around 3 inches in length and looking sharp. I also trim my tache' regularly keeping the hair from coming over my top lip. I've decluttered my beard products. I ditched a number of combs, brushes, oils, waxes and balms. I now only use the essential few. Maintenance, grooming and eating are just now so much easier. It saves time and effort, but my beard is still healthy and looking great!

whatever makes you happy! me personally though, i have very curly/bushy hair. so when its short it flares out and is a bit odd looking. it looks a bit better and is easier to tame and control with some length. beard balm is the best for me, beard oil when it short.

don't be a slave of your beard is what you are trying to say, completely agree!

Cheers Jeff. It's really good to have as much info as one can possibly get. The whole beard thing is very new to me, despite being 56 and having a white beard.. Your beard rocks by the way and I hope emulate it.

The "minimalist" look is my personal preference for sure. Beard on brother! -Parker

i agree with you 100% percent i grew mine in 2014 and 15 grew it for 14 months and i had the same issues, it took a lot of work to make it look how i wanted it to look, with the blow drying straightening softening and so forth. it got to the point where i had to buy a beard straightener and use every day just to make it look the way i wanted it where it wasnt all waving the wrong way and yea was too much work. dont get me wrong it looked awesome once i did all this and used to get nothing but compliments but i just got over it. once i realized i was having to do my beard for longer than my gf did her hair i was out. so i shaved it off completely for a year and just recently decided to grow it back and its good to hear your thoughts on a minimal beard cuz thats what im going for this time. you are a huge inspiration to me because we have the type of beard hair it looks like and also we do our hair somewhat similar, i have a receding hairline like you as well so it would be cool to see some more vids on how you do your hair with that issue. i know its kind of a shitty thing as we get older to deal with but like i said your vids make me feel better cuz you rock it with confidence and thats awesome. anyway make more vids man i love this channel your my favorite on here love your vids and tips for this lifestyle. hope all is well and stay up and beard on

i agree... it just depend on the look that we like... but it awsome to grow a beard... congrats...

I love the minimalist beard, I'm about 3 or so months in right now, i didnt really keep track of how long because i never thought of growing a beard when I started, i just get lazy at shaving and just shave when it gets long but now i stopped completely, I always hated using a razor because of the razor burns, and always used hair trimmers without the guard, and then i never really thought about how long i wanted it, until this video! i never thought or knew the term Minimalist beard, and when I saw this video, I knew thats exactly what I wanted, so thank you! but what i really hate is that its not completely full around in front of my lower lip area, I really want that sharp full hair line under my lower lip line all the way across like Jeff does! but and the middle area of my upper lip. I just want to say, Jeff, you Look like "Franks" Character from How To Get Away with Murder, but with a much fuller and better beard! of course : )

Great vid! Rocking that 'Bandholz' stache right now and the struggle is real. Keep'em coming!

Running a beard now for several years, and I've never trimmed it, reason why, is IM afraid I'll mess it up. Your beard looks great buddy. Solid looking neat beard, if I knew HOW I'd try it.. as it stands I use my home made beard balm to keep my beard all together. When I wake up in the mornings it's pretty scary looking lol.

+Beardbrand TY!

I don't know if I'm too late but in my opinion I think your beard looks awesome. A little shorter couldn't hurt. But you are rocking your current length.

Very much agree. This video and your athletic beard style video have inspired me to go shorter with my beard. I have slowly been trimming more and more, but will pay a visit to the barber soon to get an inch or two taken off. I want to take a minimalist approach to products as well and only use beard oil. I am tired off using oil, then balm or butter, then mustache wax. Ready to simplify it! Thanks.

I think it really depends on what style you relate to. Like if you see a guys beard and you're like dang, I wish I could sport that..then do it! It should be the truest reflection of yourself. Just like when you first start growing a beard and you look in the mirror, and you say "hey, that's me. That's my face". You take it a step further when you refine that image into the shape and length you want. It takes time and experimentation, but like you eventually you find what you like and rock it. It also depends on what genetics have granted you to grow. If your beard is really thin, having a long beard probably isn't ever going to look good. Grow what ya got, love what ya got, have fun and beard on!

I have been thinking more and more about taking the beard down to a more manageable length like yourself, Eric and Carlos's length. I have been maintaining my current length for almost a year now. I took a good amount off after my first year of growth to my current length and it took me a while to get adjusted to it but in the end i was very happy with the amount of time i was saving with the care of it. It's just taking me more time to pull the trigger this go around. Thats the beauty of a beard though, it will always grow back.

Well, I'm now on my 9th month growth. But during in my 4th or 5th month growth. I actually struggle with the same problems with the hair that is sticking out and curls. I did tried to maintain it by using a blow dryer to keep it straight. However until the 6th or 7th month that curl or fly away is gone. So, I don't have to worry about that anymore and no longer a time consuming issue. But I respect your desire to keep it minimal. I might do the same after I arrive my yeard beard (or not :) Also, yes it does squished my beard by wearing a scarf or a thick jacket. But I manage to change all that as I tried to find different ways to over come that. Other than that, sure enjoy your videos Jeff. Keep it up.

Bronners, conditioner, honest amish, done. I constantly explain "bad beard days". Well i used to, i went minimal, but it's growing out again, go figure. :)

Yeah bro I agree with u I wouldn't want my beard too long,but then again it's how u feel with have a short beard or a long beard.

You had an epic long beard and I can honestly say you were one of those people that just looked really good with it! When you shaved it off completely to start over it just didn't look the same. I was in the same boat where I completely shaved off my 6 month growth beard all the way but I just didn't like that look on me as much so I immediately grew my beard back. I agree with you however, that having a longer or bigger beard just takes a lot of work and effort and it's just easier to maintain a normal beard. I'd never go completely minimalist where my skin is still visible, but having a normal length beard is just easier to maintain and less hassle.

Of all the video's talking BS about how to maintain a beard, what's best for it and what products blablabla (not just singling out Beardbrand here, the rest is worse), this has to be the best video on beardcare, maintenance and preference. Oils are not needed, soap is not needed (have been shampoo free for 2 years now, both scalp and beard and it's the best for your hair has looked), balm is not needed. All of these though can enhance it and I use oil because it keeps the skin hydrated underneath. Most importantly, don't be afraid to trim it and change your style up. I recently took up this "minimalist" beard style after having yearded and it's much better, much less to worry about and easier to keep in shape. Good video Jeff and Beardbrand!

My hair is pretty coarse, kind of like Carlos Costa's. 2 things I have been thinking about doing.... 1. trim the tips of my mustache to be similar length as the rest. 2. over all trim down the sides for more of a professional look.

I have a suggestion for a future video, if the topic wasn't adressed already: On previous ocasions, you guys advised those people who are still at the first stages of growing a big beard, to try to find pictures/videos of other people with SIMILAR beard styles as your own. While that is acceptable, you gotta KNOW which are these different types of beard out there. I am trying to grow a decent long beard, but my hair is thick and bushy, not as long and easy to handle as most people out there... thus, it makes things harder for me to spot other internet folks who share the same genetics. If I knew how you guys refer to beard types, like a "Beard Catalog" with names, it could help a lot of people out there, making it easier for us to identify which category we fit in. Once we have the official "beard kind name", we could take it from there, and search the web after those who share the same genetics as we do, and follow their specific advices too. Nonetheless, keep up the good work, guys.

For me personally, having a longer beard is more minimalist. My beard didn't consistently look the same each day until I was at about 9 months. I have a pretty noticeable whorl in my beard which I had to really work at daily to get it to be presentable. I used to have to spend at least 20 minutes on my beard each day, now I look in the mirror maybe five minutes a day.

I agree with you 100%.

Nice video, but personally I'm prefer longer beard, beard on!

I feel exactly the same. I wanted to grow it crazy long then got tired of the waves, curls, and work. Lol but my girl doesn't want it short. 😒

Your beard looks awesome. Ive been growing mine since September. I deal with flare outs and what I now refer to as bed beard. When its all over the place in the morning, I feel it has a mind of its own. I only comb it through the week as I've not got the time(or can't be bothered). Some days it gets on my nerves and I feel like shaving it off, but I resist the urge and think Im not having to look at it. Eating is now a game of chance on whether i try to consume my hair and top lip. I wouldn't say mine was that long either. All my family tells me to trim it but that makes me more determined to keep it as is. My wife doesn't like it too much but admits i would look strange without a beard now. Rant over Beard on

I'm enjoying the routine of fixing up my beard in the morning, but I definitely foresee the novelty wearing off, and I'll probably transition to minimalist after I hit my goals. Keep up the awesome videos, Jeff. Well done.

Cool beard... especially your moustache. My moustache is a horrible mess with thick hairs growing at right angles to my upper lip. I'm tempted to go Abe Lincoln and just have no moustache at all.

can you do a stache trimming video please.. its hard to get hold of beardbrand products in England too. good tips in this video thanks..

Awesome.. I'm actually struggling with right now myself I like the big long beard but you're right it's a pain to fix all the time.. I don't normally fix it during the week, I work construction so not really a big deal but I don't feel as happy with it when it's not.

For me I think going with a shorter beard and making it easier to maintain on a daily base is better in the long run. Rather than feeling down about my appearance because I wasn't able to maintain the big beard through out the day will at work..

I've had my mustache at varying lengths, and when it's longer, it never stops being a bit aggravating when eating!

i agree and have had a pretty full minimulest beard before in the process of growing it back i just have one question about beard oil if you chose to do that is carrot seed oil a wize desision i like it so far and will clearly know more as my beard comes in , your thoughts?

the whole point is you have your beard, or you shave, or anything, for yourself..not someone else. its you, your face, your hair..your life - you do whatever you do to try something new, for a challenge for yourself.. to feel better about yourself. if you want it - grow it long, if you got fed up with long - trim it, shave..whatever - its you not some weird religion or fashion telling you what to do and how to look like.

First of all I wanted to thank you for all the tips you're giving us! They're really helpful and make many men's life a lot easier! When I saw that video I was like "this guy reminds me of someone, but I just don't know who..." and now (after watching it again) I know who you remind me of... Dan Bilzerian :D (And that's definitely not negative!) Well, I just wanted to say thank you and keep up the good work!

+NestiusHD Woo, glad to hear you're enjoying the videos! Thanks for the support! -Zach

great video

I'm tired of having a large beard and the effort it takes to keep it looking good but don't I don't have the balls to trim it down. I need to take that leap of faith

+Jdyke2059 Thanks! It's more of a fade actually. There is not harsh change as defined as an "undercut".

+Jdyke2059 haha yeah. coz i don't give a F about snapchat! hahah it's just me talking a sometimes into my phone about some stupid thought i have at the moment. All throw away stuff, not really worth sharing exactly. More of how i am in real life! haha

my beard looks like yours but my stash isn't even close to yours, the only part I'm struggling with

I have a long beard. I sorta want to have it shorter but haven't worked up the nerve to start cutting drastically 😤

Try for small trims, just take a bit off at a time instead of one drastic cut! -Zach

+dave klier Yeah, Jeff's beard is the cause of much beard-envy. -Zach

i personally love the beardstache look, much more refined i think and not a look that everybody sports
