How to use Beard Oil the right way
Master the Art of Beard Oil
Achieving a healthy, well-groomed beard starts with proper care, and beard oil is an essential tool in your grooming arsenal. The Brighton Beard Company offers a range of high-quality beard oils designed to nourish your facial hair and keep it looking its best. In this guide, we'll walk you through the process of choosing and applying beard oil for optimal results.
Choosing the Right Beard Oil
Selecting the perfect beard oil is crucial for addressing your specific beard care needs. Consider factors such as scent, ingredients, and your skin type when making your choice.
For a classic option, try Old Joll's Beard Oil, which is hand-blended and poured in small batches. It's made with argan, jojoba, sweet almond, and vitamin E oils to ensure a healthy beard from root to tip. For a luxurious experience, consider the Alfriston Bergamot & Rose Geranium Beard Oil, designed to deeply moisturise and nourish your beard.
Preparing Your Beard for Oil Application
Before applying beard oil, it's essential to start with a clean canvas. Follow these steps to prepare your beard:
- Cleanse your beard with a quality beard shampoo to remove dirt and excess oils.
- Gently pat your beard dry with a towel, leaving it slightly damp.
- If you have a dry, itchy beard or flyaway hairs, pay extra attention to these areas during the next steps.
Applying Beard Oil: Step-by-Step Guide
- Wash your beard 3-4 times a week
- use 3-4 drops and rub through the hair and into the skin
- Brush or comb to evenly distribute oil
Now that your beard is prepped, it's time to apply the oil: For even distribution, use a beard comb or brush to work the oil through your facial hair. This will help tame unruly hairs and ensure the oil reaches your skin.
Incorporating Beard Oil into Your Grooming Routine
For best results, apply beard oil daily, preferably after showering when your pores are open. You can adjust the frequency based on your beard's needs and the climate you live in.
Consider using Seasonal Beard Oil to adapt to changing weather conditions, or try the Old Joll's Beard Oil Mini Trio Sets to experiment with different scents throughout the week.
Tips for Maximising Beard Oil Benefits
Key Points
- Consistency is key: Use beard oil at least 2-3 times a week for optimal results.
- Proper beard trimming and shaping: Trimming and shaping your beard can help distribute beard oil evenly and prevent patchiness.
- Address specific concerns: For patchy growth, try using a beard oil with biotin and keratin. For ingrown hairs, use a gentle exfoliant.
- Complete beard grooming kit: A comprehensive kit can help you achieve a well-groomed beard with products like balms, waxes, and combs.
- Moisturize your skin: Beard oil can also help moisturize the skin underneath your beard, reducing irritation and itchiness.
- Choose the right scent: Select a beard oil with a scent that you enjoy to help you stick to your beard care routine.
For those dealing with patchy or sparse beards, regular use of beard oil can help improve the appearance of facial hair over time. If you're prone to ingrown hairs, gentle exfoliation before applying oil can help prevent this issue.
