When to start growing beard
How to Grow Your First Beard | Week One
hey what's going on it's Jack Morocco
for beardbrand let's talk about the
first week of growing your new beard
[Music]
it's been exactly seven days since I
started growing this beard and in that
time I've learned a thing or two now
don't get me wrong this is not the first
time I've ever grown out of beard and
it's not the first time I've ever grown
out of beer on this channel but it's the
first time done in a while and in this
process I've really learned a few things
today I'd like to share with you three
thoughts that I've learned in past 7
days of growing this beard back so what
we're gonna tackle today is three fronts
the appearance the feeling and the
expectations and that one's important so
bear with me to the end ok let's start
out with the appearance and like the
name suggests it's really just that it's
how the beard looks seven days after
growing it keep in mind I haven't done
anything to this beer at all other than
care for it I've haven't touched my face
to the razor or blade whatsoever in this
time so in that seven day span I've
learned that you're gonna find out what
your growth pattern is depending on
whether or not your order are younger
than me keep in mind I'm 24 years old
your beard might look a little bit
lesser or a little bit fuller than what
I have but I want you to keep in mind
that there are different growth patterns
for what you can expect within the first
week for a lot of guys and I mean a lot
a lot of you are not gonna see much
growth at all within that first week I'm
a little bit of an anomaly I'm young and
I grow my beard very very fast at the
beginning and it slows down under a
certain point but those first few days
into that first month are really really
fast that's not necessarily the case for
everyone out there especially those of
you who are younger early 20s into your
teens I've said this before in other
videos but you're probably going to see
one of two different types of growth
patterns within your beard at the
beginning you're either gonna see a
strength in the mustache and the goatee
area or you're gonna see a strength in
the cheeks and the neck area with me you
find that it's in the cheeks in the neck
okay so if you're not in that category
you're gonna find the vice-versa the
mustache and the goatee there is however
exceptions to this rule nothing when it
comes to beards is set in stone and that
goes the same for growth patterns if you
find that you don't have either of these
two patterns and maybe you have the
entire thing growing in evenly
congratulations you are one of the lucky
few I'll touch on this a little bit more
in the
lactation category this video but keep
in mind what you see in the first week
is not what you're gonna get you're just
starting out so be patient with it all
right now if we look a little bit closer
at the hair itself growing on your face
you're probably gonna see either one of
two different types the main type would
you see mostly covered in my face right
now which is really gonna be what the
beard is and then there are some lighter
hairs and especially if you're younger
or if your genetics aren't exactly
firing on all cylinders for beard growth
you're gonna see these really light
color hair which aren't vellus hairs
there's a whole subject into how you
turn the vellus hairs into real hairs
and whatever that's not what we're
covering today all I want to tell you is
you're either gonna see this where
you're gonna see this again this is only
seven days in what you see is not going
to be what you get ultimately all right
moving right along let's talk about the
feeling and this is where it's gonna
really test a lot of you first time
beard growers because in that first week
you might be developing an itch that's
especially true if you've never done
this before and that's where products
come into place in proper care of your
face comes into play
all right the entire reason beard oil
was created in the first place was not
only to give your beard a great shine
and a great look but it's to take care
of the skin underneath the hair and
that's really critical within these
first seven days if you are experiencing
an itch within that first week of beard
growth I would absolutely encourage you
to pick up a bottle of beard oil or a
jar of utility balm alright that is
gonna give you the much-needed relief
for what you are experiencing right now
and it's also gonna make the hair
healthier looking as it grows out it's
not gonna completely transform the look
of your beard but it's gonna transform
the way your beard feels so do yourself
a favor pause the video right now go
check out the description I put a few
things down there if you want to check
it out now is the perfect time to start
investing in the care part of your beard
alright if you don't want to do that and
go for the full natural and let it just
kind of happen it's fine
you can do that muscle through it
alright finally let's talk about the
expectations now this is something I
talk about a lot in my videos and that
is to be realistic with your goals you
are not going to have a full beard at
seven days and that is just ridiculous
no one does that you can have a nice
growth of scruff within a week but
realistically you're not gonna have a
beard within that time period all right
so be patient with it because if this is
your first time this is where it's
really gonna test you okay not only is
it not gonna look fantastic it's not
gonna feel fantastic and it's not gonna
be what you want all right this is where
you have to decide are you going to keep
the scruff are you gonna shave or you're
gonna commit to doing the full beard
because I think at the very least you
should give yourself 30 days of growth a
lot of people wonder when is the proper
time to assess when you need to add a
neckline in the cheek line and that is
not a simple answer okay it really
depends on the type of person of what
type of growth pattern you have if
you're experiencing what I have and it's
really predominantly growing down here
and growing all the way up into your
eyeballs that is when you can probably
pick up the razor and establish the
neckline the cheek line after a week
especially if you were in the type of
profession where you need to look
professional and put together
I would absolutely urge you to establish
a cheap line and establish a neck line
as soon as possible now almost every
single guy on this channel has covered
how to establish a neckline and cheek
line at some point in this channel so if
you want to figure out how to do that go
ahead and check out the description I'll
put some of those videos down there
alright but if you want to go for the
full month and not shave at all that
will give you the opportunity to really
see where the hair is coming in so keep
those expectations real establish the
neckline of the cheek line if you want
care for the beard during this first
week and remember you've got to be
patient throughout this entire thing
I'll check back in with you guys next
week and show you what two weeks of
growth looks like on myself and tell you

within two weeks of growing all right
