    A beard is full time job, a big responsibility. It's almost mathematical, measurements, quantity, angles. I'm learning something new about men and their beards every day now. I have a new found respect for the Beard. I used to just admire a mans full beard and wanna touch it, I had no idea just how much goes into a sexy full beard. It's not just about growing it out and brushing it. It's almost mathematical, there are measurements, the quantity you want to remove, angles of the facial features, the size of the guards, the precision in a guard free trim, the steadiness of the hand, the confidence after the end result. How can you not love a man with a styled beard. A man who styles and cares for his beard is showing lady that he loves himself just as much as he loves her by gracing her with such an outstandingly trimmed beard.
    I take my hat off to all men with beards. It makes you look dangerously sexy. Okay, I'm going to stop now.

    After being "in the wild" for about two months, I was full Duck-Dynasty. I needed to get back to my usual Mil-Spec Operator beard (issued to me in Afghanistan), but the last time I went from long to short I ended up effing it up so bad I just took it all off, which was tragic. This vid was everything I needed, and nothing I didn't. Thank you.

    You posted this awhile ago. I just wanted to thank you for it. It was EXTREMELY helpful to me. I've always had a relatively low cut beard. Being middle age I had never grown a big beard. Well I achieved success grew that big beard and I wanted to take it down some just not as low as before and I was leary to try after all the work of growing it. Because of your video I feel I am armed to give it a try. Thank you again.

    yo, I've always grown a beard fast but I've never let it actually grow out before. this was super helpful for taming that 2 month beard back into something cleaner that I liked. I really appreciate you covering the varying lengths for the sideburns, mustache etc since I always struggle with those, even when it's short

      Is it really that important to go for hair? I mean, instead of using a 2.2cm one in this case, if I used a 3cm one in favor of the hair, the result would not be similar?
      Going in favor of the hair, I notice that the hair that always stays longer is from below the earlobe, not the one on the chin, which is how I think it should be.
      Why do you see it as important to go in favor of hair?
