Facial Hair in the Old West

I got a buddy with an impressive bushy mustache, he took his kid to cave creek wild west days and the gunfighters kept trying to recruit him to join because he "already has the facial hair" I've been telling him this for years.

I love the west so much I’m only 10 but is the best thing in the world you the best

If you’ve ever tried shaving with a genuine Victorian straight razor that’s been professionally sharpened you soon understand why beards 🧔 were so popular😢

My pop got me hooked using mustache wax when I was 7,incidentally is also the same age I started chewing tobacco

It took me a minute with the SMG that he kept coming back with different facial hair styles. Really nice vid Santee, as usual.

As a barber and bearded gentleman i really enjoyed this video! I have a deep appreciation for shaving/barbering history and the tools they used, Thanks santee!

Ah, another great episode. Makes me want to go out and grow some mutton chops and use a straight razor. My wife says she'd like to use a straight razor on me too, wonder if that means she's going to do my shaving?

I love having a moustache, but by god does it make soup an obstacle course.

My Great Grandfather was a blacksmith in Indian Territory, he sported a very large handlebar moustache, his favorite brand of wax I hear was...I believe, something like Uncle Boogers Moustache Wax.

It is interesting how facial hair styles, change and roll back around in & out of fashion.

I shaved once both my daughters ran away from the "strange man in the livingroom" 1 was 4 the other was 2 theyre now 31 and 29 and my beard is about 10 inches long now ... loved the vid make more and faster lol

I found this the day after I shaved my full blown beard down to a mustache and gotee, lol. I usually grow a full beard in the winter along with my hair out and come spring time, just before planting our garden, I shave everything down to either just a gotee or clean shaven both on the face and scalp and keep it less than 1/8 in til the cool weather comes back. I happen to eba FireFighter where certain facial hair is either explicitly banned and others highly encouraged. I happen to primarily ride an ambulance so I don't have to keep the whiskers short to fit a mask and get to have the luxury of growing a beard and make some of my coworkers jelous.

Being the youngest in my family, I must of got all the facial hair. One brother has "Joe Dirt" scattered patches. Oldest brother has decent mustache and beard. Other older brother never really tried. When I start my fall beard in September I am Santa by Christmas. My mustache has been described as Sam Elliot, great, glorious and other terms that embarrassed my wife when spoken by college girls. I went way east once to a week long maintenance course. We had a rental car and a few hours to kill and wanted to see the Atlantic Ocean. On the way back we went into a little gas station on the New Jersey/New York border. I walked in where the guy was behind the inch thick window and a customer was buying lottery tickets. The room was quiet and I heard one of them whistle the Good the Bad and the Ugly tune. That said it all.

This channel just makes my day every time.

I've had a mustache for almost fifty years now, and chin whiskers for the last twenty, helps cover up the scars! I used some beeswax one time on my mustache and the dang bees would fly around my face and drove me crazy! The wife said I tasted sweet when she kissed me, but next time I used it that I should probably separate the wax from the honey ! 😊 😉 Thanks for sharing and take care. 👍

My beard needs a trim! Haven’t shaved since the 1800s!! 🧔

You're right about a big beard making you look more aggressive. I have a pretty impressive "Man Mane" and someone snapped a pic of me, at one of our shows, leaning against a post, smoking a cigarette while I was waiting for the show to start. Holy Cow! I looked meaner than a rattlesnake!

One of the many things I love about your videos, Santee, is you always include one of those short clips from an older movie. I search those clips and find some pretty interesting movies afterwards.

This was a great episode, i can't believe it didn't pop up in my feed until now!

I swear watching you folks is like watching a history / Monty Python. I love every minute of it. Keep up the great funny and informative videos.
