The Everyguy’s Daily Beard Care Routine

A good beard care routine is the first step to getting a healthy, handsome beard. Whether you’ve just grown a beard for the first time, or you’ve had one for years, it’s never too late to get in the habit of taking good care of your whiskers. Follow these steps for a simple and easy beard care regimen that will keep your facial hair looking and feeling great.

Step 1: Clean and Condition

Your beard, just like the rest of you, needs to be kept clean and fresh. It’s a no-brainer—no one likes a dirty beard. Every beard is different, but washing 2-3 times a week is usually a good plan. Some beards need to be washed more often, but see what works for your beard and skin type. Keep in mind it’s almost always better to wash less often since washing too much dries out beards and can cause flakes and itchiness.

Use a cleanser that will thoroughly remove buildup and odor but won’t strip your hair and skin of healthy, natural oils. This will give you a beard that’s soft and clean, not dry and brittle. Follow up every wash with a beard conditioner to add hydration and get rid of scratchy, wiry hairs.

Step 2: Towel Dry

After washing and conditioning, dry your beard thoroughly by patting it dry with a towel. Don’t rub! It could damage your beard hairs and cause frizz.

Step 3: Hydrate with Oils & Serums

Next, grab a beard oil or serum to give your beard some much-needed moisture. Treating your beard with these products every day will help eliminate one big problem almost all beard guys deal face: a dry and itchy beard. Beard oils and serums are formulated with nourishing oils and moisturizers that will leave each hair smooth and well-tamed. Add a few

drops to your beard and rub throughout to get rid of frizz, flyaways, and coarse, itchy beard hairs. Use beard oils anytime throughout the day to refresh your beard if it’s feeling tired or dry.

Beard Guyz Beard Serum: Includes a blend of proteins and peptides that go deep into the skin underneath the beard to fight itch and irritation.

Step 4: Butter Up

Add some beard balm or butter for extra smoothness and softness. The

rich texture of balms helps provide long-lasting hydration, so your beard stays itch and irritation-free all day long. For easy styling, try a balm with a light hold.

Beard Guyz Beard Balm: Its Shea butter and coconut provide intense moisture and a light hold.

Step 5: Comb Out

Comb your beard daily to eliminate tangles and style it how you like it. Using a brush or comb is a great way to spread oils and butters evenly throughout the hair and keep your hands mess-free. Combing and brushing your beard also increases blood flow to your face, which helps stimulate growth and can lead to a thicker, fuller beard.

Beard Guyz Natural Boar Bristle Brush: Its durable bristles get rid of debris and help spread your skin’s natural oils throughout the beard for an even sheen.
