    @OhNellly Před 4 lety +2

    Where your beard is right now is the exact look I’m going for. I have good genetic for that style but in the past I’ve rocked a cleanup scruffy look a lot. I trimmed my neck line closer to my jaw line. That is why I’m watching this video. The thing is I gave my face, checks, stash, etc a two or three week head start so I’m getting close to needing to carve in a proper beard neckline. Instead of taking it right up under my jawline. It looks like I’ll be fine even though many people seem to shun starting with more on the face than neck.

    I'm new to this self trimming facial hair stuff so I'm kind of lost.
    I will shave my entire beard to even it out and try to grow a full beard now that my neck hair has began to grow in.
    Any tips for facial hair to connect to the sideburn from the mustache?
    Shampoo, Conditioner, and Oil isn't working as fast as I would like it to, but over the past 3 years of doing that routine it has made significant growth despite my genetics.

    Thank you for taking the time to make this video. I agree with the way you line up your beard. The only issue I encounter is that I have a big scar on the left side of my face and neck. I have to allow my facial hair to grow a little longer in one spot to be able to cover the worst area that is right below my jawline. If I don't allow the hair to grow a bit longer, it leaves a noticeable patch that makes it look uneven with the other side. Anyways, take care and thanks again for the tips! Btw, nice beard brother. Peace

    You have to invest in a safety razor I find it much easier to remove the hair under your neck then the multi blades and plus blades are cheaper.

      Frank Mancuso I find that myself, used to take the piss out of my granddad for using one but I won’t use anything else now and so much cheaper

      It's actually a $35 Wahl hair trimmer kit. I just threw those away and got a new$35 Wahl hair trimmer kit. It's in my latest video about trimming my big beard shorter.

    Do you taper the edges of your neckline like you do the sideburns so there isn't a hard line?
