After spending so many months at home, many of you decided to give it a go and try a new look: growing a beard. You love your new look but you know that it doesn’t end there. Now, you need to maintain it and keep it looking good, healthy and soft. But where to start?
Proper beard grooming is one of the fun parts of having a beard and being proud of your awesome look. There are tons of products out there to help you take care of your beard and we also have some tips for you.
In this blog, we’ll focus on beard washes, oils and balms. Here are some of the products we like to suggest to our beard loving customers, together with some tips on how to use them and how often.
Making the beard look healthy and soft.
- Beard Wash
Washing your beard is important to keep it healthy, however you don’t want to wash it too often. This will dry your beard and weaken it. Wash your beard once a day using a beard wash product, not an ordinary hair shampoo. Our customers love King's Crown Antibacterial Beard Wash, this beard wash is a foam that penetrates your beard and gets rid of all the dirt without irritating the skin underneath. Your beard will look and feel clean and healthier from the first wash.
- Beard Oil
Washing your beard will keep the dirt at bay, but to help hydrate and soften your beard, you will want to use a beard oil. This is a product that you will want to use every day after the shower because it will help balance the natural oils in your beard and skin. Depending on the product you use, and on the size of your beard, you will want to put a small amount of beard oil in your hand and massage it on your beard, allowing it to penetrate in your beard but without over doing it. King's Crown All Natural Beard Oil and Jack Black Beard Oil are both made with natural organic oils and extracts and are ideal to hydrate your beard and condition the skin underneath. King's Crown All Natural Beard Oil is one of our best selling product: it keeps your beard soft, healthy and smelling fresh!
- Beard Balm
A beard balm has a similar functionality to a beard oil, however many like to use it as a complement to the beard oil especially when you have a thicker or coarser beard. The balm will not only help moisturize and condition the beard, but it will also help to style and soften it. Depending on your taste, you can also pick your beard balm based on its smell to keep your beard smelling its best. BARBERSTATION Beard Balm is one of our best-selling products of this category. This balm is easy to wash and leaves no residue. If you are a citrus scent lover, this will certainly strike your fancy. Other beard balms include Reuzel Beard Balm, and Nova Scotia Fisherman Beard Balm.
Now that you have all you need to make your beard look healthy and soft, you will also want to make it look nice and tamed. Stay tuned for our next blog where we will focus on how to shape and style your beard!
