BEARD EDITS IN REAL LIFE!

Beard Edits! are a thing that I've seen

on the internet over the last few years

and whenever I see one of me, half of me

is like "Yeah~ work that beard dad"

and the other half of me is like

"NO! Throw it into a volcano!".

There is no in-between.

I just did an Instagram ~poll~

57% of you said I should get a beard!!!

and 43% said NO. I feel like the people

that said "yes" are not thinking about

my best interest and they are just curious

about what it would look like cuz it's not

your face! but-

incouraging nontheless.

so I thought, the only way I could find

out if I truly suit a beard would is to

actually try some out in real life.

so I bought a whole variety of Fake Beards

I'm gonna stick 'em on my face and find

out once and for all.

we're gonna do a Beard Rating out of 5

and decide what is the Best Beard for me.

so before I destroy my face let's have a

look at some of the Beard Edits you guys

have sent in.

oh my god that

looks like a completely

different person. that is so weird.

who are you? why are you cooler than me?

this one I don't like as much.

I'm slightly scared.

NO

that one is terrifying. ok i need to make

a note 'Do Not Smile with a Beard!'

that one is an absolute NO

Oh My God

That is the most cursed thing I've ever

seen [im so sorry phil]

enough.

so I had a very intense day of

Fake Beard Shopping and I thought we could

kick things off with some fake mustaches.

simple. clean. maybe I just need a

mustache and I don't need the whole

hairy neck scenario. I like that they are

'emergency' like what is the emergency???

why do need them???

firstly the ultimate classic.

~oh~

it looks like I've got more niche interest

and I'm like 10% gayer like I

only talk bout 1960s bicycles.

it's not bad we're giving it a 3.

ohhh that looks bad.

does this mean I'll have to dye my beard

black for it to look good?

I never considered this-

I'm gonna give it 2 stars. I want it off

my face. oww.

no.

this one is also giving me a gay vibe

slash police. Gay Police!

I'm the gay police. I would definitely

have a cooler name with this mustache like

~Richardo~ or ~Blake~

but yeah, generally I'm kinda digging it

especially with this denim jacket.

it's giving me a whole like

"I'm gonna stay at the club till 5am in

my tank top and you're not gonna do

anything about it!" OW!!!

3 stars! I kinda got used to it on my face

and now I look weird without it on my face

are you getting that? no? ok.

onto the beard!

the first beard I bought is- this

why would you use such a terrifying person

for the picture? are they real?

they look CGI! I'm scared.

do you wanna scratch my knees?

I don't- I don't even know how that's

gonna attach to my face but let's give it

a shot. the biggest mystery is what this

person looks like beardless.

equally unfriendly. mrahhh

sorry if this like your dad. this feels

strong as well. I'll find a look that's

gonna be my face with no skin. right I'm

just gonna- alright just gonna plunk it on

oh my god. that's not right. ~heyyy~

oh it's really hurting my face.

say this wasn't such a crappy packet it

don't look half bad does it? I'm kinda

liking it guys. ooh~ imagine having such a

fluffy face. it's like having 6 hamsters

strapped on there. I feel like if I had a

Beard- a beard! I would do a deeper voice

I'd be like "hey, my name's philip-"

maybe I would call myself Philip.

Philip here, would you like to try my

craft beard? Philip here and my new merch

is AXES!!! alright, squint your eyes

because at a distance this looks pretty

good. I'm gonna give this one 4. right-

I better peel it off now. oww it's stuck

to my hair. ahh! oh my god I look about

14 now. bring back the beard!!!

ok equally weird packaging. we've got an

attractive man's face and they just

plonged the beard on top. I'm feeling like

this is gonna be more greying,

sophisticated, "I've seen things" vibe.

free him. ohh hello, less scary maybe

these two could be friends? now kiss

i mustache you a question how does it look

wonky! oh no! I can't have a wonky

mustache. that looks like I've got some

kind of small animal on my face like a bat

has just gone "cro" and stuck under my

nose. ok here we go- umm, ok, that is a

look. I look like Rick with a beard from

The Walking Dead. "Carol-"

I feel like I would twiddle this a lot

while solving mysteries like a college

professor but a bit badass like I've got a

dark secret- what's in his basement?

ok that's a bit more creepy. at this age

in life I don't think I'm ready for the

grey beard yet but I'm not gonna say no to

it. I'm gonna give it a 3. on its own that

is a 1. alright get off. the next one is

described as a Ginger Hypster beard.

a lot of people think if I grew a beard it

would actually be ginger but I think it

would be dark brown. this is probably the

longest my facial hair has ever gotten

which looked alright. there might've been

a few ginger strands but it wasn't fully

orange. anyway I'm intrigued how this

will look because maybe I'll dye it if I

do get one. ohhh! this is the longest one

yet. this is exciting me. how do I do this

do I just put it on the back of my head?

oh it's getting in my mouth- people with

beards how do you stop it going directly

into your mouth? oh oh I think I've done

it. this one does not look good. I thought

this would be one of the good ones.

it's got the fold from when it was in the

packet. i do like how wild it is tho. I'm

like an untamed lion ready to sow my oats

I think this one would suit me with

glasses more. wait- yes! now I can see it.

can you see it? do you love it? i- I'm on

the fence. if these two hair colors

matched I think it would look a lot better

so overall I'm gonna give this one a 2.

and- ow get it out of my mouth now! blehh

this one I think is gonna be the best.

it's described as a viking beard which is

my dream. why are there two pieces?

oh my god- how do I even attach this ti my

face??? oh here we go-

imagine having this much hair on your face

I like that its got plats in as well and

this is a wig to go with it. yesss. i dont

know what's happening I can't see but I'm

really enjoying myself. this feels good

it's like having a permanent duve on your

face.

the name is Lestgar do you wanna ride on

my ship? no. this is great. I'm gonna give

this a 5. I might consider growing this

when I'm fifty. I love it!

the next one just says God which I'm

thinking is gonna be really similar to the

one I just tried on. ohhh this one is more

sleek. it's like I've used Pantene Pro V

for wizards. hello my children. I'm either

god or the wisest wizard that ever

wizarded. imagine if god had a youtube

chanel- "hey guys, smash that like button

today we're gonna talk about what the f*ck

a giraffe is". I love it but I'm not gonna

personally keep this look so I'm gonna

give it a 3. oh i forgot about this- I got

beard lights. I've run out of long beards

right I'll put this one back on

so you literally clip them into your beard

this has given me the biggest jealousy

so far I would totally get this for

christmas if I had a beard. who needs a

christmas tree when you can have fairy

lights on your face. so finally I wanted

to try and get the most authentic beard

possible and I did some googlin' and I

found a way to do that was to use hair

fibers which kinda grossed me out because

I thought it might be real hair but its

not. it's fake hair that you glue to your

face to look like a beard so I'm gonna

glue my face and then sprinkle some hair

on myself. alright let's get a good

mustache line. oh this is hard cuz its

invisible. how much am I gonna regret

this? uhhh- this is automatically gross.

ok it's happening.

oh my god that looks kind of real. ok so-

it's a bit messy. I shouldn't have gone up

so much over there. alright I'll try and

be more careful. oh that's a bit wayward.

oh no.

oh this feels so gross. I don't like it.

transformation complete

can't stop looking at myself in the

monitor umm- wow. you know what? I think I

look pretty great. at a slight distance

this looks pretty realistic like if I went

to the shop- oh I just breathe some in-

don't breathe this. if I went to the shop

people would think I was a guy with a

beard. I dunno if mine would be this dark.

that's the thing I think it could be

lighter brown which may affect this whole

look. so overall I do think I'm happy with

my natural no beard face but I could do

this one day just as a little change.

maybe for a few months. I'd never go full

beard forever. I've also got hair all over

my hands I guess the rumors are true

don't do too much beard application or

you'll get hairy hands. I'm gonna give

this a 5.
