Hey guys! If you are in the process of growing a beard, or have been rockin’ facial hair forever, you may wonder...

When growing a beard, it’s important to keep it healthy. If you’re in the early stages of beard growth, don’t give up with a little irritation. The most intense irritation in beard growth is right before your hairs have passed the half-inch mark. This is when the hairs are a short and have sharp stubble. For some the low-level irritation can linger pretty much indefinitely. 

While brief stages of discomfort are normal when growing a beard, there is no reason to suffer with long term itchiness, dryness, or flakes. And, just because you have a beard doesn’t mean the skin under your beard doesn’t need to be cared for. Moisturizing your beard and face, and softening it for those you hold close, is so important. If you have any skin issues, talk to your doctor about your skin condition and choose a natural Cleanser that won’t irritate or dry out your skin. Without proper moisture, the skin under your beard will be dry just like not moisturizing any other skin covered body part.

Good news … there are ways to help these things. Take care of your beard and your skin under it while maintaining your beard-style. Head hair to beard hair can be soft with our full body, any Hair Oil! Plus, it softens coarse chest hair. It is fast absorbing, non-staining oil that keeps any hair soft and nourishes the skin under it. The snugglers in your life will love your smooth beard and chest nest.

Caring for your beard (or even chest hair) doesn’t stop after the shower. Help the skin under your beard by allowing it to be hydrated without smelling musty or looking greasy. As soon as you step out of the shower and dry off, put a pump of Hair Oil on your finger tips and rub it into your beard stubble. Daily applications from the time you start growing your beard will nourish the hair and skin under it. The Hair Oil absorbs quickly, doesnt stain and leaves no greasy or oily residue.

Any Hair Oil will soften facial hair and will help the flyaways and tangles. It takes time and effort to grow a beard and facial hair. If you are the guy with that fabulously manicured facial hair and a cluttered product line-up in your bathroom, any Hair Oil can simplify your beard-care regime and save money - it shareable! But, if you are a guy who can’t be bothered with all that and usually forgets he has a beard until it itches, any Hair Oil is your all-in-one full body of hair fix.

A beard can be just for fun, temporary or long term, but it can also offer some health benefits. Beards help protect your skin from the sun’s UV damage and also help keep you warm in cold, snowy climates by adding that extra layer of protection that insulates and protects your face –  like a wool sweater. If you are living in a place with a colder climate, the winter months usually have little to no moisture in the atmosphere; further adding to your dryness.

Windy climates, or activities that subject your skin to irritating wind - like skiing or golfing, can be extremely challenging for your skin. Even the slightest wind can blow away any moisture found on your skin and hair. When this happens, your skin becomes dry and sometimes even damaged, like from windburn. Our Hair Oil soothes and repair your under-hair skin while nourishing and softening your facial hair.

Moisturize, moisturize, moisturize. If you want a luscious beard, dry skin is your nemesis. Just because you can’t see the skin under your beard, it doesn’t mean you don’t need to worry about it. Excessive cleansing, harsh shampoos and artificial cleaner residues can also dry out your beard hair. While removing dirt and grime is a good thing, you’re stripping away natural oils. It’s time to get your beard cleaning in order with our all-natural gentle Cleaner.

Put your best (bearded) face forward whether it’s a caveman, hipster, Playoff beard, or whatever motivates you to grow your face foliage.
