New Year's beard resolutions

With a fresh start upon us, goals and resolutions for the months ahead are inevitable so why not add an extra couple to the ones you had in mind with our suggestions: 

I will… 

Treat myself to a professional barber experience 
Bank any Christmas cheques you got from the grandparents, aunties or uncles and treat yourself to a quality tidy. Not only does it make you feel like a king, having someone else deal with your wiry face fuzz, but they’ll effectively create a template for you to follow, making it much easier to maintain in the long run. You can find some of our favourite barbers here. 

Be patient 
Rome wasn’t built in a day. If you’re a fresher to the beard world, don’t expect a thing of beauty to magically appear on your face in three weeks. If you’re completely clean-shaven, there’ll be an uncomfortable itchy period but that’s where we can help – use a beard shampoo to gently cleanse away any dead skin cells, a beard brush to train the hair to grow in a single direction and satisfy any urge to scratch, and a beard oil to soften new hair coming through and moisturise the skin underneath. 

Take part in Movember 
You’ve got looooaddds of notice so grow your lip rug ready for one of the best causes around which tackles men’s health on a global scale. You can find out more in our post here. 

Eat healthier 
Being more aware of what you’re putting into your body will show on the outside. If you haven’t tried one of our ‘Eat Your Way To A Healthier Beard’ recipes, 2017’s the year! Or better still – why not create your own? We’d love to hear about your nutritious meals so email in to hello@thebrightonbeardcompany.co.uk and we could feature your recipe on our blog. Don’t forget to drink enough water too. 

Wishing you all a very hairy 2017!
