4 Products To Soften and Grow Your Bearded Beau’s Facial Hair

I think many would agree with me when I say facial hair to men is what makeup is to women; they look perfectly fine without it, but having just a little bit on your face can tremendously enhance your features. On the other hand, beards take a little bit more effort to care for because they require all the maintenance that other hair does.

It needs to be washed, moisturized, trimmed, and everything else you may do to the hair on your head; but let’s be real–most men do not properly care for their facial hair. It can be rough, unruly, growing unevenly, and even worse: dirty. All of these factors may be the reason why their beard is in bad shape and not growing.

And to be honest? That’s not too good for their appearance or the women in their lives who have to deal with brillo pad textured beards daily.  Fortunately for everybody, there are a few quick fixes that’ll get your man’s beard in tiptop shape.

Below are 4 products to soften and grow your bearded boo’s facial hair.

Backwood’s Beard Balm and Conditioner

Made with all natural products such as argan and jojoba oil*, Backwoods Beard Balm and Conditioner is a pomade created to tame unruly hairs and shape a beard to whichever style is desired. The shea butter* conditions and softens each hair strand while beeswax is used as a molding property.

The best part of the product is that it does more than just condition and style the beard, it actually promotes hair growth and decreases breakage.  Jojoba oil* strengthens the hair follicle, adds shine, and even makes the beard look thicker because it is known to add volume and body to hair.

Argan oil not only helps tame the curly, unruly hairs in the beard, but it also promotes hair growth because it is full of vitamin e*.

Aside from all of the amazing hair health- promoting ingredients, it is also full of essential oils* which gives it the light and warm cedarwood smell for an extra perk.

Fruit of the Earth Aloe Vera Juice

Aloe vera juice is capable of solving all beard woes at once! Filled with calcium, Vitamin A, B2, B6, C, E (and more), it gives beards shine, promotes hair growth, moisturizes, stops itching, and puts an end to one very common problem–shedding!

Doing an aloe vera juice* beard rinse or spritzing it on facial hair once or twice a week after a gentle wash will bring about a noticeable change in your beau’s beard in almost immediately.

There are a lot of aloe vera juices to choose from, but Fruit of the Earth is one of the best because it is 99.8% pure aloe vera juice* while the rest is a safe preservative that increases the shelf life of the product. If you are looking for 100% aloe vera juice, go straight to the source! Aloe vera plants can be found almost anywhere plants are sold.

Shea Moisture Yucca and Baobab Thickening Shampoo

A lot of men would like to grow in thick, full beards but some of them struggle with patches or uneven growth which causes the hair to be thick in some places and thin in others. Shea Moisture* Yucca and Baobab Thickening Shampoo helps thicken and add body to thin hair–this includes beards.

Yucca, a plant found in the warmer climates of Central America and the West Indies, acts as a thickener while the Baobab fruit oil strengthens the hair and promotes growth with Vitamin A*, C, D, and E.

Aside from all of the great benefits, let’s not forget the very best one: it’s a shampoo! If you’ve ever seen a man eat food and drop crumbs in his beard then you know this step is necessary.

Gently washing facial hair with shampoo every week is a good way to keep the skin under the hair cleansed, keep pores unclogged, and hair free of dirt; all of which can stunt hair grow and cause patches.

Beardbrand Tea Tree Beard Wash

You can find a good shampoo for beards anywhere because you can use virtually any gentle shampoo that is for hair, on a beard. However, Beardbrand Tea Tree* Beard Wash is a tad bit better than a normal shampoo because it was created specifically for beards. It has all of the usual components of a great wash, but one ingredient stands out: tea tree.

Tea tree oil* is the holy grail product of scalp and hair cleansing. It has anti-fungal, antibacterial, and anti-infection properties, prevents hair follicle blockage and hair loss, promotes hair growth, and contain anti-androgenic effects that stop male hormones from causing hair loss.

Long story short, Beardbrand Tea Tree* Beard Wash is a great move if they need to create a clean environment for beards to grow in fast, strong, and healthy. This wash paired with other products and proper beard care should have your bearded boo’s facial hair soft and luscious in no time.
