HAHAHAHAHA!!!! Me too!!
Got a long one growing.
I have been making my own beard balm, beard wax and mustache wax.
Got some bad ass recipes and tricks from this site.
Grow a Beard Now - Beard Care & Grooming Products
Then after I really grew it out long I went to This guy Mir who is a super stud t trimming and shaping beards.
Mir the Master Barber - 16 Photos - Barbers - Sherman Oaks - Sherman Oaks, CA - Reviews - Yelp
Mir has people travel from all over the world to get their beards trimmed and shipped.
This guy was awesome!!! Learned a lot of cool tricks that I would never find on the internet on how to get the look I wanted or any look I wanted for my beard.
One trick that was pretty bad ass was to blow-dry my beard with a vented brush to ad volume.
My heard is curly and kinky without blowdrying.
I was making strong beard balm and beard wax to get control before I learned about blowdrying.
Now with blowdrying and beard balm and mustache wax (That I custom made), I started getting the look and feel that I wanted. Blowdrying makes a monster difference on how my beard looks.
And you have to grow out the stash!!
I also use Kent combs and brushes. Do not use anything else!!

Amazon.com : Kent Men's Handmade Comb, Set of 3 : Beauty
The combs are hand made and the brushes will last you a life time.
I use this blowdryer. The more expensive ones are the better ones! Trust me!! I did my research. You can fuck your beard up with a cheap blowdryer. Using the mall attachments that come with it is a must. It really focusses, the air and heat.
Amazon.com : BaByliss Pro BABNT6160N Nano Titanium Torino Dryer : Hair Dryers : Beauty
Got 2 of these when they were $80 Now they are $126

This beard thing has been my new thing for 6+ months. Started growing the stash out 5 weeks.
I know I sound like a bitch, but I do swear by everything Im using. But anything and everything I buy and choose to do, I spend an enormous amount of time reading and researching it. I hate buying shit twice!! Buy it once and buy it right.
Any questions feel free to ask.
