We can choose to be grateful for what we have. In the Rubaiyat of Omar Kaiyam , he wrote "I cried because I had no shoes until I saw a man who had no legs"

I stumbled across your videos only recently and man do I love them! After only watching a couple, I feel as though I am a part of a bearded brotherhood. I don't have any men around me with beards in my profession, so this is so encouraging. Thank you my brother!

Thank you Mr. Bruno, I really enjoy and appreciate you sharing your experience and helping others (like myself) embrace their individuality. Congratulations on your great KZfaq channel, your videos inspire me - and many others I'm sure - to continuously seek ways to improve, reinvent, and redefine ourselves. Beard on!

Positive vibes George you've helped me through my bad beard days 💪🏾

Thank you for this vid Gray! The perfect motivation for me. I am 2months in and get compliments all the time but I also fall into that trap where I look at guys with beards like yours that are full around the lips and high on the cheeks and I get sad. Thanks for boosting my confidence.

I greatly appreciate this video and your advice. Not only have you answered many questions I've had, you offer invaluable reassurance. Thank you. :)

Hi George Just want to thank you for making these inspiring videos :) . Greetings form the Netherlands

Great video George. Watching you daily now with my morning coffee!

love the videos man been watching a lot of your videos this week, very entertaining and encouraging, beards men like yourself should so make dvds that hit on tips and motivationals to help keep us bearded brothers focused and determined to achieve our goals especially if or when the time comes when we kinda hit that low time in our lives and we need that boost to keep bearding on anyways always a pleasure listening to your wise discussions really learning a lot and looking forward to what the next video is going to be about. ;)

It's because of great bearded gentleman like you that I've learned to embrace my beard. I've learned that in most cases we're our own worse critics and while I used to see the faults in my beard others just saw a beard. Now I embrace those faults and try to wear & style my beard to enhance my strengths and in doing so I've grown to love my beard. Cheers to you sir & thank you for the great channel. I've learn so many great tips from watching it and my beard looks the best it's ever look because of it.

yo i love ur channel, ive been following u 4 awhile, i appreciate everything ur about

The hot towel shave video is actually how I found your channel! Love your content, and the asmr aspect your videos give! *fist bump*

Awesome advise Bruno. Really appreciate you brotha... Peace be with ya!!! ✌🏽

Ooh I see what you did there, the sultan of silver wearing a quick silver shirt.

Awesome video, George!!! Love the shirt!

So glad you talked about the "swirl" of your beard. I'm from the south and friends would call mine "hurricane root", it only did that to one side. I'm 4 months in on my beard and it's not as noticeable now as it was. Thanks for the encouragement.

Comparison is the thief of joy! Great video.

Bro excellent video and thanks for sharing these tips

I have more salt than pepper in my beard these days but I'm rocking it and looking forward to the purple VO5 and sultan silver wash 😄 you are absolutely right about time, length, and patience. My beard is starting to kick ass and getting a lot of compliments. As always love the videos. God bless you brother

Thank you for the great advice about growing a epic beard all the things you mention in this video seem to apply about my beard and i am learning from you to reach my goal again thank you very much Gray. by the way you have the perfect beard one of the best i have ever seen. cheers from Canada

These are cool videos. This guy is my favorite beard tutor.

Very inspiring content. Thanks again!

your such a blessing Mr. George. thank you for being my internet mentor at times. i look forward to growing my yeard and coming to visit in time and scheduling a super consultation. thank you for your service to the male life humanity. peace and blessings bretheren

Great video as always Thanks have a great day

great videos Bruno!

Been growing a beard now for 8 months and went to the barber and got my first major trim which it needed badly. Looks a lot cleaner but it wasn't the perfect trim by no means but i guess it will fill in with time and i can always shape it as it grows back out again to a longer length. Your videos are wonderful and you earned a new subscriber. Cheers and beard on!

this was very inspiring! Im going to just let my beard be and concentrate on the health of the hair. thank you

Your videos are much better than an appoitment with the psychologist. That's the best thing I can tell about your person, apart of your awesome Beard. :) Cheers, mate.

Your beard is always on point!!!

Phenomenal video! Thank you for the information! "You can wear a funky ass tie." 😂

Your beard and especially your mustache is looking the best I've ever seen it. Well I'm biased because your handlebar looks like my goal (or dream) beard but still.

the ultimate hot towel shave is how I found your channel. was thinking of switching to straight razors for crisper lines on my beard and it was down a rabbit hole I stumbled into for that.

I know you weren't talking about reviewing a product(s) for just whoever. But if you do, I would love to see your opinion on Mad Viking Beard Oils/Soaps/Balms. Anyways, I love your videos. I've learned A LOT. And it's all helped me make my beard, though sparse, MUCH better overall! Thanks to you!

George, thanks for the encouragement. Cause my beard is at close to three inches, and it's still super curly (mostly on the sides-Goatee area back to ears), front starting to strengthen out (gray and silver coming in mostly in front goatee area), the hair on my head is just spiral curls, (wear it long, about middle of back). You mentioned that after all the white came in your beard lost the curls, is this common? Our if you just have super curly hair and beard, that's what it is for life, cause I'm 55 and I don't see the curls letting up at all, ha ha. Any ways again, thanks for your time you give us with your beard and life wisdom, love watching and learning from your videos. Please keep it up brother George, and God bless.....

I`m an black male on my beard journey, and i stumbled across your videos, but truthfully, i couldn`t stop watching this video because of your voice, very nice beard sir.

I feel like the main thing with people growing any kind of hair is the fear of the unknown, because you feel like you could be wasting your time growing something and looking odd for an outcome your going to not like anyway, which makes it very difficult to not compare yourself to others, it keeps you going, saying oh when its longer I think it'll look like this or this, its good but doing it too much is unhealthy

You are like the brother I never had thanks

Thank you for these videos. Sometimes I feel like shaving it off, but these encourage me to let it grow.

what mustache wax do you use that stays all day? great videos

Nice beard . Good stuff

Ive actually started making my own oils and blams recently. Ive been giving them away to get feedback and if it’s positive I may start trying to sell them. Personally I love them and I love experimenting with different oils and aromas. I tend to focus more on oils that moisturize as well as have relaxing aromatherapy properties. Ive been making 3 different scents for each of the 4 seasons. I hope other people like them as much as I do lol i also plan on selling some veggies at farmers markets and selling the oils and balms there as well. I just wanna spread the love of beard care and make come extra cash doing it

thanks for the great video george, big fan! one question - what is the best way to trim or cut the ends of the handlebar? should i cut the tips when the beard is fully styled with wax or when its clean? thanks a lot and greetings from germany

Hi George, i have been growing a beard for 1.5 years. Thanks for the vids!!!! I've been trimming the front bottom to encourage it to curl under. Currently, when I blow dry as you recommended my beard curls-out in the front instead of laying straight down. What do u recommend along with letting it grow to make it look decent for work?

You've probably gone over this before, but where did you get the name Gray Bailey? As always, great video good sir. Keep em up. I love all of it.

Peace be upon u Sir ! I really like the videos ! May you be blessed in this world and The Hereafter !!! Love from Pakistan !!!

@Gray Bailey Is there some kind of acne, or follicle inflammation of sorts that kills your follicle? Because I have some kind of acne or similar and I'm guaranteed that I've lost beard (beard have become more patchy) in the last 2-3 years. Do you have any information on this?

I totally get it George... I get a load of younger gentlemen stating that they wish they had a beard like mine, but as I say to them, ya gotta rock what ya got...no matter what size it is...and as I also say to them, it's all to do with genetics.. point blank... I'm lucky I have a nice full beard...good genetics on my fathers side...my great uncle had an epic moustache... anyways.. another inspiring video as always

Great vid brother...!!! Beard on...!!!

Gary if you could pick two of your videos to show a hair professional who has never cut beards which would they be? I have been growing my beard out now for over 6 months and i have only trimmed my mustache.... I really don't want to attempt to try myself and i have no beardsmith in my area

Thanks for the words of encouragement George. I have curly beard and wish it was more strait. If I'm hearing you right the longer it gets the less it will curl?

Mr. Bruno, where do you see yourself and your beard in 1 year? Your goal is a noble one sir! After you reach the 3-button goal, what's next? Would be nice to see a video of you talk about reaching your goals and setting the next one up!

Hey George...got a question. I recently started to grow a beard. I dye my beard because the gray makes me look older. What are your thoughts on dyeing facial hair and beards?

you are a wise man👍

Hey, I'm about a week and a half into growing a natural length long beard, but the hair on my top and bottom lips are out and up a bit and driving me crazy......any suggestions? How long until they lay down? Thanks

We can't grow another man's beard. We want what we can't have. Every single individual is unique, one-of-a-kind, just be the best you you can be, you will never be any more.

George, I have been growing my goatee for 6 months and it is getting long but now I want the full heard so I quit shaving my cheeks and sides of my face, will that ever get to the length my goatee is or should I start over, thanks,, Alvin

Love your beard 🤗

Curious ... at what age, Sultan, did your beard fully mature and fill-in ?

great video as always,look forward to more tips from you in the future,check in daily for new videos,keep doing what you're doing Bro, beard on 😊

Good!, cheers!!

Great video again George. I have a question, how do you get your hair cut? What I mean when I ask that is, what would I tell my barber to have it look like yours? Also, what is your favorite cigar? I just started smoking cigars about a year ago and I'm still trying to find that perfect one. Thanks

you crack me up with your patented cheese wedge vernacular. your remarkable. stay very bruno brother

How is called when your beard slit in the end? (08:11 of the video) I heard once that when your beard reached that point, it will keep growing "forked". It doesn't look cool at that point. Is that true? Thanks! Great beard and videos.

So, I have relatively good genetics, there are hardly any patchy spots and good thickness all around. However, my sideburns are not at all thick! Should I be worried or with time that should get better?

I just trimmed my beard for the last time thanks man I'm at 1month and 10 days

the brofist thou!!

Hi George, You talked in more detail about this in another video, I can't find it back, but you mentioned alittle about it here, at what point of beard length do you stop shaving the neck line above adams apple? Also my lower lip there's hair in the center but it's not very long and it's more bald on each side, will it ever grow in full? like a sharp line all the way across like yours? (And i'm not comparing) haha

😉 thanks!!

What's your opinion of henna George? I've used it a few times.

Hey George, not trying to be untactful here but out of curiosity: What is your genetic background? Where did your ancestors come from?

I have shitty mustache to beard connection but I still rock it lol embrace what you have is what I say

grass is always greener on the other side..

Did u ever grow a long beard in your younger years?

What is a Glitter Beard please ??? Never heard that expression before...

george i said it before and ill say it again...U DA MAN!!!!! PLEASE run for president!! quick!!! ........Jude

SANTA CLAUS

Sending bearded fellas to a hot towel shaving video ....Noooooo!! bahahaha

What is your instagram?

Links ....Links ... Links... you just don't realize how lazy some people are ...You can always go back and add links in the description

I think big beard NEED to be a bit messy. Othrwise it looks unnatural. Just a thought.

Sultan of silver?? Why are u knowing for that

I use mobile 1 oil. Gives me great mileage. 😏

The only magnificent thing in the video is your beard.
