4 Tips for Growing & Maintaining Your Beard

Is your beard growing weird? Over 55% of men across the world today have beards, and over 68% of women prefer their partner to have some degree of facial hair.

But beards are more than just facial hair growth. A proper beard is thick, lustrous, and well-maintained. If you’re having trouble with your stubble, here are 4 barber tips on how to grow and maintain a healthy beard.

STEP 1: Let It Grow

You may have heard the old wives’ tale that shaving makes your beard grow in thicker. In fact, shaving doesn’t affect the root of your hair beneath your skin and has no effect on the way hair grows.

It typically takes 2 – 6 months to achieve full beard growth over time and during that time, your hair and follicles need all the nutrients they can get. You should always wait at least a month before trimming your beard or neckline.
Our nutrient-rich Pro Rich Beard Oil allows you to maintain a healthy growing beard by supplying facial hair follicles with essential vitamins and minerals.

Natural oils like Castor Oil and Sweet Almond Oil help to stimulate beard growth while like Sativa Seed Oil and Argan Oil protect, moisturize, and eliminate dry skin under the beard.

STEP 2: Clean & Condition

You may have heard the phony theory that beards are dirtier than toilets. In fact, clean-shaven men are more likely to have infection-causing bacteria on their face than men with facial hair.

In order to keep your facial hair hygiene top-notch, make sure to clean and condition your beard daily, and follow up with an application of our Pro Rich Beard Oil.

Simply rinse your growing beard and apply the Pro Rich Beard Oil daily to keep your facial hair soft, shiny, and resilient. Natural oils like Argan Oil prevent breakage while Jojoba Oil nourishes scalp and follicles.

STEP 3: Brush & Comb

There’s nothing worse than seeing a guy’s lunch stuck in his beard. If you want to grow and maintain a healthy beard, brushing and combing throughout the day is essential.

Beard combs work by ridding your beard of food particles, dust, and unruly hairs while evenly distributing your beard oil across your beard’s surface.

The Rich Barber Flash Comb is the ultimate tool to help you maintain your beard! With an integrated LED light, ambidextrous design, and waterproof body, the Flash Comb can accompany you from home to studio to office, helping you maintain your grooming routine with unparalleled accuracy and detail even in low-light conditions.

STEP 4: Shave & Trim

Just like your lawn, your beard needs a trim every now and then to look its best. Once your beard has grown for at least a month and you’re beginning to see results, it’s time to start shaping your beard and neckline.

While trimming, shaving, or doing line-ups, use The Rich Barber Razor Holder for ultimate precision and control over your angles. The classic 360-degree motion, push-style design allows you to use your single-edge razor blades to detail and shave with rigor without added hassle or weight.
