BEARD OILS, ARE THEY NEEDED AND DO THEY REALLY WORK?

A question that I'm often asked from time to time which tends to arise around the month of 'No Shave November' is 'Are beard oils really as needed as people suggest they are?' 

And the short answer you'll always receive from myself is a simple one worded reply of, Yes.

If you are a regular reader of the 'TBS' beard blog you'll have no doubt read my many posts where I continuously stress the importance of using a premium quality beard oil or balm when it comes to the day-to-day care of your glorious beard.

So, today I wanted to reinforce those reasons as to why every beard fellow should be using beard oils...

BEARD OILS HELP RESTORE YOUR BEARDS HEALTH AND VITALITY!

Using a generous helping of beard oil each and every day will help restore your beards health and vitality by repairing any troublesome areas you may have, such as beard split ends, whilst softening any wiry rough areas too. When your beard is softer it will also prove much easier to style and control, making your life a little easier when it comes to maintaining your furry chops.

For those with curly facial hair that's particularly hard to tame, check out our guide on how to straighten a curly beard for additional tips. 

SAY GOODBYE TO DEAD HAIRS AND BEARD DRYNESS!

When the day-to-day elements meet your beard they can have detrimental effects to your beards well being. In the hotter summer months you'll notice your facial forest will become much drier and somewhat brittle to the touch. Same with the cold wintery months, condensation can easily form within your facial hair and mustache and cause beard-cicles (Yes, they do really exist!) which are never fun. Using beard oils will help eliminate beard hair dryness by providing the right level of moisture and hydration for your face, helping your beard continue to grow big, strong and long.

For a deeper dive into causes and treatments for this common issue, our article on dry, brittle beard causes and treatments provides comprehensive solutions.

SLAP ON THOSE OILS AND SHINE BRIGHT LIKE A DIAMOND!

Bad beard days happen, that's a sad yet simple fact. But when your beard game is on point 'TBS' oils and balms will add a extra shine and glow to your beards appearance. My beard is of a rather large size and extremely ginger (Ginger beards FTW!) and after I've applied some 'TBS' Day Liquid Tonic to my face face the extra shine adds to the beards appearance and looks fantastic for all the right reasons. If you're looking to enhance your beard's appearance even further, explore our collection of beard styles for inspiration on how to shape and style your magnificent mane.

HELP SOOTH THAT BEARD ITCH WITH SOME BEARD OILS!

This comes in real handy when you first set off on your beard growing journey, but applying a daily dose of 'TBS' beard oil, like our Loki Beard Oil, will further help eliminate that dreaded 'beard itch' phase. Once you've begun applying oils to your beard your skin also benefits from soaking in much needed moisture. For beginners, our complete beard care kits provide everything needed to maintain healthy skin and beard.
