Here we have the beard oil you’ve been looking for. With its all-natural ingredients it will leave your beard soft and smooth. Whether you’re just starting to grow your beard or you have beard-hive, Grooming Hut’s beard oil will add that luster you are looking for. Beard oil is used to cleanse, nourish, and moisturize your beard, keeping it healthy and strong. The oil also keeps your skin free from flaking and itchiness and flaking-hence why it makes an important part of your grooming. If you normally experience beard dandruff or beard itch, it doesn’t matter if you already sport a full beard or are still on the stubble phase, what you need is beard oil. It not only alleviates the discomfort but helps in supporting and maintaining beard growth. The best time to use the oil is right after getting out the shower. The beard will be at peak cleanness levels and the skin pores will have opened up, good for absorption. Remember to gently towel-dry the beard before you apply oil but leaving it slightly damp. Don’t apply beard oil when your hair is too wet as water and oil don’t mix well. How Often to Use Beard Oil When it comes to how often you should use beard oil, it will depend on a variety of factors. First of all, all beard oils are not similar in quality and composition of ingredients. Again, it may come down to individual preferences with many beard aficionados applying the oil every day and there is certainly nothing wrong with that. In fact, most experts recommend daily use to help in keeping your beard as attractive and healthy as possible. Frequency of application will vary depending on the local climate, the season, and several other factors like cost. You may want to start with an every-other-day use and adjust the regimen as you think necessary. Your beard is likely to dry out more if you are living near drier climatic areas which may mean that a more frequent use becomes necessary, perhaps twice a day. If, however, you find that daily use is making your beard too oily, consider cutting down to every other day application. How Much Do I Use? Because natural beard oils have a non-greasy feel, it can be tempting to use more than your beard actually needs. Remember that if your beard is wet after a shower, the water prevents the oil from getting absorbed into your hairs and skin, therefore ensure it is dry but damp. The amount of beard oil needed cannot be described as an exact science — it depends on the beard length and thickness. While finding the perfect amount can be through the trial and error route until you find your balance, a good rule of thumb principle is to use a dime-sized puddle poured in your palm. As a guide, here’s how you should ideally use beard oil based on beard length: • Stubble: 1-2 drops • 1-2 inches long beard: 2-4 drops • 3-6 inches long beard: 4-6 drops • Over 6 inches beard: 7+ drops (this ensures all strands get coated and roots penetrated) Another helpful tip is to think of beard oil as hair gel, but for the beard — your beard will inform you when it’s nicely saturated. Applying Beard Oil Beard oil not only moisturizes your beard but also the skin underneath reducing dandruff and skin irritation. Depending on the specific type of essential oils used, you can get additional health benefits like increased blood flow to the hair follicles and lower blood pressure because of the stress-reducing aromatherapy. When applying beard oil, it’s perhaps more important to focus on how you apply the oil. One vital aspect is to make sure that your beard gets lightly coated in oil from the root to the hair tips. All you need is just a few drops for that. If you are located in a cold zone or particularly dry climate, it becomes even more critical to maintain this daily moisturizing routine if you are to have a well-maintained beard.
