My husband has been rocking a beard for a couple years but never had a clue how to trim/maintain it (no one ever showed him how). Then I came across your videos a few months ago on how to do beard trims/maintenance at home to share with him, and they have been a game changer! I will say, I've been the one studying up and learning these skills to replicate on him, and I have improved so much because of your videos and his beard is the best it's ever been. THANK YOU for sharing your knowledge!!!
That’s so awesome to hear. Thanks for the encouragement. I appreciate it!
As somebody who lost his dad at early age i want to thank you because your videos really helped me to figure out how exactly to maintain and trim my beard... Really appreciate your work!
Growing my first beard in 60 years. It's at the 2-month stage. I'm going to let it grow out for another 2 months, but I'm now starting to think about what style I want, and how to achieve it. To help me out on my first trim, I'm upvoting the request for full-length videos on all those shapes. Thank you for sharing your knowledge!
Much love Matty 🤘🔥 keep growing
I’m gonna be honest Matty, I like how you look with the rounded beard. It looks dope.
Also, let’s be honest, we will probably want an individual video for every shape you just did haha 😂
My favorite internet beard guy. Have learned so much from you, as well as my hair stylist since, other than me, she barely trims any beards hahaha, so I’ve been sending her your videos so she can leave me nice and clean, better than I do it myself 😂
Great video, Brotha 💪🏽💯
Really appreciate how thorough you've been with these. Thank you!
great and very helpful video, thank you!!
I love how your videos are always informative yet with a touch of humour
Thanks for watching !
Helpful, thanks. Triangular's definitely favored in my book
This is a brilliant video it helped a ton 👍👍👍
Amazing video again!
Thanks Yanick! Hope you are well!
Thank you for the tips brother! This is an extremely informative video 👍🏻
Thank you for these videos!
Thanks for watching!!!
Nice job Matty! I always look forward to your videos! I agree, the ducktail looks cool. I am two months into achieving one myself!
Great video…and the Beard of Rick Rubin on the desk….love it!
Great vid, Matt! Full videos, please 😅
Best Beard Video Trim Tutorial Ive ever seen..... Great Job!! Helped a lot!!!
I would definitely love full length videos on all these shapes. If anything it makes for some great viewing during my morning coffee 🙂
As always, nice videos. Regards from Spain
Best beard videos ever!
Thanks Matty, when I started growing full beard from a long term goatee the best information out there was always yours ... still is!
Thanks Matty, full length on styles 2 and 3 would be welcomed! Super helpful, thank you
Great video as always. I always refer to your older video about how to tame an overgrown beard. Almost felt I was comfortable with that process but this raises the bar. I need to start practicing. Thanks for sharing. Great beard man.
This is my favorite video on CZcams!
Appreciate the Nerdy Stuff Matty!
Thanks for taking the time!!!
Thanks man!! It takes the longest to do but I really like to get nerdy about stuff.
Love it. Thank you for helping me debate the shape of my face.
One of the best videos I’ve seen on this topic! Thank you 👍
Wow… thanks!!!
Hi Matty! So glad I found your channel! Used your trimming technique and finally have the square beard I've always wanted! A few more weeks of grow and trim and I'll be exactly where I want it!
Hands down the best beard video tutorial I’ve ever seen. Now I can style any of these looks. 👏🏽🤝🏽
Hello Matty,
Thank you for sharing your wide knowledge regarding beards. It definitely improved my looks. I would appreciate even more your take on the hairstyles, styling and home grooming of head ;)
Great video as always! I finally have a jawline thanks to your tutorials! I would love your recommendations (even a video) on Barbers you like in NYC, in particular Brooklyn.
Cheers!
I love your beard videos
Thanks so much!!!
I really liked the lean sides with the round bottom
Always love your videos, man. Succinct and informative. Groom on!
I appreciate that! Thank you sir 🙏🏻
love it, i just love docktail beard.
Great video Matty, i prefer the pointed Shake of the beard.. Looks awesome!!!!
Me too!
This video blow my mind man ! , thanks!
Thanks for watching!!!
Love your videos, I'm trying to grow a full beard and it's thanks to you that i know how to do everything with it 😅.
That’s awesome! Thanks for watching!!!
Recently found your channel and I’m loving the advice! Currently trying to go from a bit past stubble to a longer beard. If you or anyone else has tips for how to handle the “awkward phase” I would really appreciate it lol
The best man! Thanks!!!
You're welcome!
AWESOME videos Matty I do the square beard I find it easier
For some time, I've been wearing a long beard, but I've always struggled with trimming and styling it effectively. Your videos have been a revelation-they're incredibly helpful and easy to follow for beard enthusiasts like me. They've sparked my interest in self-trimming and enhancing my beard. I'm looking forward to seeing more detailed videos on trimming long beards and mustaches on your channel. I'm also excited about your upcoming tutorials on shaping a rounded beard and chemical straightening (relaxing). Keep up the fantastic work!
Hola, Matty.
First of all, thank you for sharing all of these tricks and details on how to model our beards like you do. These recommendations are very useful.
Second, I admire your beard and how well these 3 styles fit perfectly on you. You are so blessed for having a versatile beard like yours.
Finally, I really love how you encourage us to improve our skills on shaping our own beards with a magic ingredient known as PATIENCE.
Thank you for your ideas, your time spent on creating content like this one and your leadership, Señor Conrad.
Regards from Tijuana, México.
Just a quick note to say thanks. Had a disastrous beard trim recently, he undercut it and made it look transparent and weak at the front as well as lopsided, I can't find a decent barber round here to fix things and the clippers I had were awful. So armed with new Gamma+ clippers and trimmers set and your videos, I plucked up the courage to have a go myself. Your videos took the mystery out of things, it's not a dark art after all and I now have a 'soft' square beard and a trimmed and shaped handlebar 'tache.
You have made an old man (and his missus) very happy, thanks!
yeahhh Matty !
Thanks for watching!
Man I just started watching your videos in a lazy attempt to grow my beard and I got to say these videos gave a more confidence to actually grow it and educate myself on how to take care of them.
I’m such a fan and hopefully I can keep learning from your videos.
The triangular shape fits me the best but I have sometimes taken a little too much from the bottom and sides trying to achieve the right look. Slowly getting better tho. 👍🏻
That's awesome! Thanks for the feedback!
Love these tips! Your channel and channels like it have REALLY helped me up my beard game. In 5 or so years, I've gone from having little growth ability to a beard that only takes a couple months to be strong. I've only sat in one barber's chair and honestly, I probably spent a hour fixing it after leaving, so I guess I prefer to trim/style my own beard. Being a balding guy, a good beard is a huge compliment to the overall aesthetic. Thanks again, Matty!
It’s my pleasure Clark… glad I. Could help.
Love this video tutorial! Great work bringing it all together 👍 and as a bookseller I just have to ask: is it Rick Rubins book on your desk?
Do you recommend any good beard books on how to shape and trim a beard as well? Love all the content.
Always motivating to watch your video. Give me confidence in grooming my own beard. I was always worried that this won't apply to me being black, but all your tips work wonders. Continue the amazing work.
That’s awesome to hear!!! Thank you so much for the kind words! It’s appreciated
Thank you for your videos! They really helped me with my beard journey. Other barbers I visited really liked it and were really surprised it's a DIY from CZcams videos 😂
Great video, as always. I’d love to see a video of you talking about your hair and hair in general. How often do you get it cut, how often do you wash it. What’s the out of the shower styling ritual. Etc. Thanks!
I can do that!
Hi Matty, awesome video as always. I style a rounded shelf with flat sides. I tend to tilt my head back but trim downwards to compensate. Seems to do the trick.
That will do it 👏🏼
Im thinking about the beard journey. What shape would you recommend?
Really appreciate your videos, simple and straight to the point. Subbed 👍
I think I have a similar face shape to you so I go with the ducktail.
Great to get a top barber's advice!
How'd you end up feeling about the new trimmers? Recommendation? Thanks for another great video!
Hey! Here from Gatineau/Ottawa Canada. I'm an apprentice barber💈and I love your videos. 🫶
Love your videos ❤ for me, a short to middle length business beard would be very helpful to learn.
I have an uneven beardgrowth, one side growing down, the other growing softer and sideways. I have an hard time using anything like guards, because one side needs to be shortened, but if that happens to the sideways side, it will be much flatter and a visible difference.
I literally have been waiting for these videos for months now.
Btw, my dad has a beard, quite like yours.
Solid video as always, Matty. Point to be noted- it's worth mentioning the "hybrid shapes", like "square and round" (parallel sides, slightly rounded bottom) and "squared ducktail" (flat bottom but parallel to your jaw; not pointed). Reason I say this is because these have become more popular over the years than these classic shapes. They're also more natural than the above 3, in my humble opinion.
Regardless, as someone who styles his beard like a ducktail in the morning and it becomes a round shelf with parallel sides as the day progresses, I'm very pleased with this video and this guide. Thank you!
Yeah.. the fundamentals are kind of important to start with. And you can only fit so much in a single video.
@@mattyconradgrooming true that. And I'm happy that you explained the fundamentals in such detail. Haven't failed even once since adopting your teachings. Only wish you taught us common folk in Germany too.🥲 But until then, lots of love and gratitude!
Also you’ll notice in the thumbnail for this video I am wearing a rounded base with linear sides. I think the most important thing is learning to understand the basics so you can put them together in any for you see fit.
Thanks for these great videos. I’ve tried two barbers with less than stellar results
I find that the spoonbill suits me best as well. Would love more in depth videos, especially with tips for guys with sparse side hair. I know I can’t go too short or it just looks scraggly.
Dude u have a cool beard !! Nite!
Love your videos, they've really helped me trim and shape my beard to look much better. What I am curious about, is your hair in this video. How is that style achieved? What do you grow out, and how do you trim it to get that swept back but lean on the sides look? I'd love to see a video on that.
Me encanta la ducktail
Off topic question, can you do a video on the jewelry (wrist band, rings etc.) that you wear.
I have been trimming my beard with no clue of what I am actually doing. warch time i get new shap as I was just experimenting. Thank you so much for the information.
I would love to see a full video for triangle shape.
Love your videos man! One tip, Im not ambidextrous too, but when Im trimming left side I use both hands on a trimmer and it helps alot. Cheers!
That's a good idea!
I see that Rick Rubin master piece on the desk there. Keep creating my man!! Thanks for all the info!!
It’s a great read. Really enjoying it.
Could you do a video discussing growing and grooming styles of the mustache in combination with a full beard?
I am currently trimming to the top of the red of my lip, which seems to be common for many men. But I see most beards you show have the stash trimmed to the bottom of the lip and I don't know how to achieve that from my current style
The squared off shape is so great.
Thanks! Honestly I kinda like them all 🤷🏻♂️
Solid counsel as always! If you ever need a long beard model in the Asheville, NC area... I know a guy -
Great Video!! Where are you coming you with your trimmers?
Still working on it! Thanks for watching!!!
Love your videos! I favour a square beard but I’m never sure what to do with the sideburns. Does your beard kind of start at the cheek line? And what length are your side burns above that?!
Best youtube channel
Thanks for watching!!!
Hey Matt man love the content, I’m a new beard grower and black so my hair grows so differently have you got any tips or vids to come with black men with big beards. Thanks man fan from the UK 🇬🇧
I’m a licensed barber 1 year into the industry. Appreciate this. 👊🏻
Hey Matty, any tips on styling a wiry, patchy and not so 'dense' beard?
More in depth video on duck tail please
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍 Matty! Classic aesthetic yet very informative!! I always love the nerdy stuff and what about the white T huh? Lol! No one does beard content like you my friend!!
Thank you so much sir. I appreciate the positive feedback
Thanks would love to see more in-depth on all three shapes. I think duck tale is were I need go. I struggle with the big moustache. Once it gets long as yours or a bit longer it is difficult to style. If you could do video on long moustache care trimming would be awesome. Thanks for all the tips
You got it!
Matty, thanks for the great tips! Could you consider a tutorial on a more layered & natural look. Although, it can definitely be more difficult to master. That is, to keep trimmed but beard walls more layered and natural rather than straight, flat, and completely uniform. For example, Leto Atreides Dune beard look. Maybe get someone with a large beard and wittle it down and layer it to look Oscar Isaac Dune like?
Haven’t found anyone that shows this, but, you’re the one man that can pull that off on CZcams!! Let’s do this Matty!
Where can i go to schedule a beard trim with you? I want to take a vacation week, and thouht coming to see you and the shop would few days off. Marcello
Matty, how often do you recommend people trim off flyaways from their beards when styling them?
Do you have links to the combs/tools you use?
Can you please do a video on how to properly maintain a goatee?
Clipper and trimmer recommendations?
Ive had my beard for a few years now, ive had it short, ive had it long, neat and messy. The best beard ive seen and the one i want to emulate the most is Duke Leto Atreides played by Oscar Isaac in Dune. If you could take a look at this style that would be amazing! It seems simple but so powerful!
You make everything look so easy. On month 5 of my newest beard journey and I feel like I need a trim to keep things looking proper. Can’t decide on a shape though. Rounded seems like it would fit me. Do you accept emails with beard pics for suggestions? Great video as always.
Great videos, love your cinematography!! Your grooming style is exactly what I’ve been trying to accomplish, but haven’t found the right barber. I found a few good barbers in Raleigh NC, but not a great one. Any suggestions of people you may know in the area would be appreciated. Especially beard maintenance, long square/duck tail ish.
Hmmm not sure if I know anyone in Raleigh… 🤔. Sorry, but Thanks for the compliments my dude!
Just came across your video for the first time today. I have never really tried to grow a beard until now any places you recommend in the San Jose area of CA ?
Absolutely love this video, gotta be one of your best. Just wish that background music would disappear when you're talking or at least have it dialed back. Thanks for the beard tips!
Excellent feedback.., I’m still working on my video editing… clearly haven’t mastered it yet 🤫
@mattyconradgrooming New follower! You might already have shared this. Wondering if you would do a video on the trimmers/ clippers you like as well as what's more price point friendly but still good. Looking to buy new clippers soon. Thanks for the content!
I will definitely work on that!! thanks for the suggestion!
Yeah.. Excellent video. Any recommendations for beard barbers in London, UK?
Thy Barber in Shoreditch is 💯
@@mattyconradgrooming appreciate that! I'll check it out
@@mattyconradgrooming Hey Matty - fresh out of Thy Barber today after a trim, looks great, thank you for the recommendation!
For shaving on the cheekbones and on the neck(cleaning up a beard) do you recommend transparent shaving gel?
Great video as always! I have a question about cutting back lines. I have a difficult time cutting my back lines without messing one or both of them up (I usually screw up the corner part of the jaw). Do you have any tips or tricks? Like maybe use a comb as a straight guide? Thanks for any help in advance!
What is your opinion on the Wahl High Visibility trimmer?
I'd really like a series of time-lapse type video of going from completely clean shaven to fully bearded. I know it'd help me a lot with knowing how to groom at different stages
Please! Do Duke Leto Atreides next!
I've been told I have the square look recently from a coworker, but I feel as though he's just being nice. I usually use a ponytail in the morning on my drive to work to help with my beards bed head.
