How To Use Beard Oil
If you've taken to furnishing your face with a beard, it's essential that you keep it looking (and smelling) clean and fresh. Beard oil is one of the most effective ways of keeping your growth in perfect condition.
Your facial hair grows more coarse than other hair so it takes a little more attention to keep it looking in perfect form. Beard oils coat each strand of hair with a mix of softening oils to ensure the beard stays knot-free and silky soft. The lasting effects of regularly applying beard oil are a subtle shine, healthy-looking growth and a beard that is ultimately easier to maintain.
How To Use Beard Oil
Beard Oil is really easy to apply. After cleaning the beard in the shower simply dispense 4 or 5 drops of oil onto the palms of the hands and rub between the fingers. Next, work the fingers through the beard starting from the neck upwards, paying particular attention to the cheeks where the beard grows fastest. Try to work the oil as deep into the growth as you can, this will ensure that each time you trim your beard the 'undergrowth' is perfectly formed and ready for exposure. Add more oil as desired.
How Often Should I Apply Beard Oil?
Depending on the thickness of your beard, you should apply your beard oil once daily. If you have really thick growth then you should apply it twice daily.
When Should I Apply Beard Oil?
It's always best to apply your beard oil before going to bed. The long-and-short of this being that whilst you're tucked up in bed, your beard is less likely to become exposed to environmental debris and bacteria, meaning your beard stays cleaner and healthier.
What Should I Do If My Beard Is Still Too Coarse?
Try using your shave cream as a beard mask. Shave cream is specially formulated to soften dry, rough hair and to protect the skin. Using your shave cream as a beard mask is really simple; warm the shave cream between the palms and apply to the beard, working it deep into the growth. Be generous. Do not wet the beard beforehand as you don't want to create a lather. Leave it on for 5 minutes and rinse thoroughly with warm water. Dry the beard and follow with your beard oil.
