Totally makes sense I actually really like the contrast between a really tight cut and a bushy side burn - great as always 👍

that was the tip of the year so far! Thanks man!!

Totally agree. Excellent point and very critical on the beard shape and overall look. Well done 👍🏻

Great tips Jeff It confirms something I started to see but I wasn't able to put the right words to it

Great tips. Thank you Jeff

Great tip. I'm going to watch for it now.

I've been saying, we're men & for that, we're allowed to grow a bomb ass beard. The more hate, the beefier my beard is gonna get girls!

As a bald guy with a beard I've always felt something looked off without sideburns or with them faded. This video is a really good explanation of why.

Extremely interesting, and perfect timing! I'm heading to the barber tomorrow.

Quite a unique insight. It does make a lot of difference to the esthetics of the beard indeed.

wow great advice

Good advice

Nice video 🤘🏼

Why is it in every Beard Brand video they always taper the sides and blend it. I 100% agree with you it looks way more natural to keep the hair on the sides.

I always went back to a really short beard because I thought long beards make me look weird for some reason. This was literally it, keeping the sideburns longer fixed everything.

Another video thanks for the tip I was about to get a haircut now I know what to do

Brooo thanks so much i had the exact same issue and figured something with the sideburns was off

Since the pandemic began I started shaving my head. Most of the videos I was watching for bald with a beard guys were fading and trimming their sideburns, so thats what Ive been doing for a few months. All I can say is it was a big mistake and i knew something was off.... but this video really helped me pinpoint it. With me because of the shape of my cheekbones under the sideburns, it made that whole area look really strange and off. thanks man, great video. time to grow out my glorious sideburns again.

I never knew it effected the shape thanks for the tip

Awesome, dude 👏. Thats so on point. I've watched a lot of beard grooming in youtube; some from beardbran too, and the barbers insisit on trimming the sideburns too much and go super long in the chin and jaw area. I never really dig what they're doing. Like you said, they do fading in all that area to blend it with the hair cut a little, but it looks kinda wrong, like not organic. So its great that you point those things out, so barbers stop going too hipster on the beards and start going for a more even and natural look, sort of clint eastwood beard in 'the good, the bad and the ugly' kind of style. I think that a waay better and manly beard.

@@jeffreybuoncristiano LOL. I just looked in the mirror and realized it has no effect. It definitely will help the less hair I get on top. It's funny how, you may not change up the beard in any way, but if you get a different hairstyle, bam, it changes the face perception.

Also, not tapering or blending the sides of the beard into your head hair is soooo much easier to maintain. It's really easy to mess up a fade or taper.

Yup true 💯

That works fine for people with most ear types but on me, if looking straight at my face front on, you can hardly see my ears as it is. So for me, it's actually better to tapper the hair and make it more flat unlike yours. I tend to do more side on profile photos otherwise it seems like I don't have ears. But your point is definitely valid for most people. PS: That's an absolute fantastic beard you have!

Good tip. My beard pattern grows well behind my jaw bone under my ear and it grows straight back. That is the challenge for me bc I either have to round that off and add that to the minimal shave clean up every few days or let it get long enough to let gravity help it switch directions. Not sure if my description makes sense. I shaved to stubble this week anyway. I get annoyed with the whole beard maintenance.

Hi, I’m new in trying to grow a beard and I wanted to ask. I normally wash my face twice a day with L’Oréal Paris Men Expert hydra sensitive soothing daily face wash, then use L’Oréal men expert Vita Lift anti aging daily moisturizer. All over my face from my forehead to the bottom of my neck... Want to ask when your growing a beard (mine is about a centimeter by now) do you stop using cleansing washes on your facial hair side and moisturizers? You only use beard shampoo and conditioner and beard oil and balm? Meaning from forehead to nose normal cleaning routine and face products and from checks to neck just beard products only? No more moisturizers where beard growth is? Guess beard oil replaces that? Thanks :)

Im bald and my barber tapers my beard. I've always thought it looked great and I always got compliments on how bad ass my beard was. But I do like the cut down from the ear look you described. I'll give that a try next time.

@jeffreybuoncristiano

I think you misunderstood. It’s not about the cut down. It’s about the size of the sideburns equal to the bottom of the jaw. The cut down is just a result of this.

You should do this one with Beardbrand

Yep, sure i did exactly that like a week ago

Ok so I transitioned from a full sideburns to a faded one because full burns on a frizzy black beard on an already wide face, no matter the grooming, looked TOO unkempt and animalistic. It especially gave off the homeless guy feel. Once I started fading, my face looked more within the boundary. I guess a point to be noted that I often have shaved or buzzed sides with a top knot, so my hears are pronounced no matter what.

I’m 19 trying to grow my beard out. My hairs are about 1 inch long but is curly and kinda patchy. Gonna try not to shave for awhile and see what I can do. I do have beard shampoo and a comb and brush and beard oil so hopefully it can become fuller and grow more. Just taking forever since it’s curly :/

(i know this sounds stupid tho, maybe i m too childish about it). in my head, in order to make it look better i had to keep growing it, may be wrong tho. i guess with the age i will be able to have a different beard, i m impatient (i know it). i hope this message won t piss you off 😅 and thank you very much for your attention. great tips btw, you are awesome. cheers

If I don't want or tbh can't handle (too stiff and painful) a handle bar mustache, how do I integrate a chevron style to the rest of my beard? Is it doable or should I reconsider a handle bar?

As a bald man I'm not a fan of long sideburns, it just don't look right . I think blending the sideburns into the skin on the head just looks more streamlined . A good example of this (besides myself) is Rich Cooper from Entrepreneurs and cars .

But other than that, I think he’s actually doing a disservice to his style by blending, but to reiterate, it’s an “ah-ha” moment that is a once you see it, you “get it”. But until you do, you’ll stay the same, and that’s ok. But hopefully you’ll see the light.
