What gave me peace is that I've looked at James Harden he has been growing out that bad boy for years.... it's very thick and dense but when you look at it from the side it's not long because it's coiled up..... that's why I'm saying a black man's beard is very underestimated..... i believe it always grows just difficult to see.....
@blainkenny3851 of course, I know about the curls and coils. I know that my beard is longer than it appears, but it stays that same length, lol. I'm not really upset about it or anything. This video is more about answering the question. If a dude comes to me and says that his beard has been the same length for 3 years, I can no longer tell him to wait it out. Maybe his beard did reach terminal length. It sucks because who can actually answer this question? Is there some sort of doctor or specialist? It just seems like it's a big mystery...
@@lumpvision5746 I feel you my brother..... but it's a great question or statement..... sometimes I'm wonderdering aren't I'm doing to much that's why it's at a stand still.... but I definitely feel you.... I'm just trying to brainwash myself by being positive🤣
@blainkenny3851 I ain't mad at that. Don't let me stop you from your own brainwashing 😂. You did make an excellent point overall. I know that maintenance is extremely important, but how much do we really NEED to do? I've used a ton of stuff to see how it works and presented it to everyone. I've come to realize that I, me, don't NEED a ton of products to grow a healthy beard. Someone else might NEED it, but I don't. That's why I keep it simple these days.
My beard has been the exact same size for 6 years. I don’t cut it or shape it up, I never put any type of clippers to it. Same exact size. Never goes past the length it is. I cut it in 2017 and it grew back to the same exact length it was before I cut it and it never gets longer. Haven’t put any clippers or scissors to it other than to shape up the mustache area.
That's how I'm feeling right now at this point that my beard isn't growing but I'm also a little impatient. I feel it's all in my head that it's not growing but it is just slowly. We have to just trust the process.
Nah, gotta use objective measures. Ill let it grow without touching it and see what happens, dont wanna be thinking about “did trim a little too much”@@lumpvision5746
Some things to consider about hair and nail growth.. Nutrition or the lack there of has an impact and also medications you take can effect growth as well. A few years back I started taking blood thinners and my hair and nails grow like crazy it's like miracle grow lol.. So scrutinize your diet, nutrition and supplements.. Good luck beard brothers!!
I partially agree with nutrition being a possible factor. What do you say about the dude who is 5'10", 280lbs with a massive beard and a full head of hair? What do you say about LeBron James being one of the best conditioned athletes out there having a decent beard but not a beast of a beard and going bald? I'm not trying to sound condescending, I'm truly want to hear your thoughts.
@@lumpvision5746 all valid points Lump not saying that it's the only or main factor involving beard growth or health just a thought to consider. It's like going to a muscle building expert who says did you try supplements. Some people respond amazingly other have no effect at all. So maybe a daily vitamin or more healthy fats in a diet might give you a beard bump, maybe not. One has to determine if it's for them to try. The prescription medicine is a whole other factor because those side effects can be clearly determined by cycling on and off meds for a period of time.. Love ya my friend!!
@stinkercooch9688 OH TOTALLY! Our bodies respond differently to stuff for sure. We're basically saying the same thing. You have a ton of knowledge on many different subjects, so I'll always listen to what you have to say or even try specific methods. God could have given me your genes when it comes to hair and beard growth, and this video would have never come about 😂😂. Much love always homie! 👊🏾
@@lumpvision5746hair loss is purely genetic; specifically to the maternal side of your family. If your mother’s father has/had a full head of hair, so will you at his age.
Terminal length is a real thing. However, my terminal length ended up being a lot longer than what I originally thought several times. My beard is dense at the bottom and filled in near my mouth like yours. The type 4 coil pattern varies on different parts of my face, but not as drastically as yours. Under my chin is basically the same 4A/4B as the front. But my beard stops right at the Adam's Apple. I used to think that I didn't have sideburns until I stopped shaving the sparse hairs there. My sideburns never get any longer than two inches at the top to six inches going down. I thought at first that the terminal length of the main, lower part of my beard was 7 or nine inches. Then I learned how to comb and brush much more gently and stopped using a hair dryer and it grew to eleven. Then I learned how to safely do two strand twists or braids and rely on finger detangling more, and it grew to thirteen. Because of the Covid pandemic, I figured out how to put my beard away so that I could wear those masks. I made one loose braid that I wore tucked under my chin without clips or bands and also wear this at night on satin pillowcases, and it is now 17 to 18 inches. This was over a ten year period with me lightly trimming just the ends at the bottom, trimming the stache so that I can eat, and then creating a deliberate fade at the top where the sideburns meet the hairline. The tucked away look keeps my beard safe from wear and tear, and I only fully unleash it maybe once or twice a week.
Wow! That's very interesting. Sounds like you have a beast on a beard! I'm glad that worked out for you. Thanks for your comment. Maybe this will help someone who is possibly hindering their growth. RESPECT 👊🏾.
@@lumpvision5746Believe it or not, maintaining it very long and elongated is actually easier than maintaining a nice neat looking afro beard. If your girl has natural afro hair, it is just a modified/simplified version of what she would do.
Toward the end of last year it seemed like mine had stopped getting longer. For a while in fact it stayed around the same length. After that I stopped paying attention to it, throw some oil in sticking to my routine. After a few months I noticed it had gotten longer, maybe around an inch to an inch and a half. But thinly thing I did any different was cleaned up my diet and went crazy with hydration. Each person might have different points where their beard slows down for a bit then starts going again. But I don’t really know for sure, that’s just my experience.
I just told my wife on Wednesday that my beard doesn't look like it growing anymore.I been growing it full for a year been using jamaican black castor oil for beard benefits don't think it work for me. But i will give it two years of growth to see.
I know it happens because we get impatient, but at some point, it has to be true. I've seen too many beards the same length FOR YEARS! I don't know. It makes me wonder.
This is exactly my point. You know how your body is reacting. I know hair seems to grow slower when it gets longer, but 6 months is a long time to not see growth.
Lol... no! This might sound stupid, but I forgot how quickly 1oz bottles can get used up! I use like 6 drops at night and a tiny bit of butter during the day. My beard seems to keep that fluff when I use oil only. Maybe I was just using too much butter before.
Do you feel like your beard stopped growing/getting longer? Let's discuss...

Thank you.. When i see my shirt through my beard, Yes... i had to trim it.
You got that right!

How long do you trust the process? 1 year? 2 years? Your entire journey?
Great video lump! The beard is looking good at that length.
Thanks homie! 👊🏾
@@lumpvision5746 anytime
Great Topic 💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾
Thank you 🙏🏾
Great vid my brother,thnxs for the info 👊🏾🔥
Yessir! Thank you 🙏🏾
I’m not trimming anything at all. Testing my limits lol
Damn, not even if your beard looks see through of you develop split ends?
Nah, gotta use objective measures. Ill let it grow without touching it and see what happens, dont wanna be thinking about “did trim a little too much”@@lumpvision5746
Gotcha. Better safe than sorry sometimes, huh?
Combing it downwards might help it grow longer
How so?
@@lumpvision5746gravity, stretching hair follicles downward. Mine grows rapidly compared to other men’s cause I comb it downward

@kemitamenophis3221 lol... I wouldn't know! My beard has not gotten anywhere near the length of your beard.
Toward the end of last year it seemed like mine had stopped getting longer. For a while in fact it stayed around the same length. After that I stopped paying attention to it, throw some oil in sticking to my routine. After a few months I noticed it had gotten longer, maybe around an inch to an inch and a half.

My growth slowed down at the upper chest area…just shaved it off to enjoy the process all over again 😂
😂🤦🏾♂️

I know it happens because we get impatient, but at some point, it has to be true. I've seen too many beards the same length FOR YEARS! I don't know. It makes me wonder.
Man I called myself trimming my beard exactly 1 year of growth this past June and man I wish I didn't
What made you trim your beard?
@@lumpvision5746 tried to even the chin with the sides didn't know what the hell I was doing 😆😂
😂😂😂😂 damn! Hopefully, you make a strong comeback!
@@lumpvision5746 👍 thanks 🙏
Could it just be genetics 🧬?
For sure. I believe that everything is like 90% genetics.
Im letting my hair grow just like my beard i can see where my hair is growing but my beard has been the same length now for about 6 months
This is exactly my point. You know how your body is reacting. I know hair seems to grow slower when it gets longer, but 6 months is a long time to not see growth.
My beard has stop growing iam not genetically bless to have a big full beard but it's better then where I came from a super thin chin strap
I hear that! Recognizing that you came from nothing to something is a great way to look at it. RESPECT 👊🏾.
You still only using beard oil bro?
Lol... no! This might sound stupid, but I forgot how quickly 1oz bottles can get used up! I use like 6 drops at night and a tiny bit of butter during the day. My beard seems to keep that fluff when I use oil only. Maybe I was just using too much butter before.
