The Countless Benefits of Beard Oil

The stereotype between men and women tends to create the notion that women are more invested in the overall care of their bodies, particularly their hair. There are endless commercials in magazines and on television that spout how grooming products are a necessity for women. Perhaps the stereotype is true, but it is a shame that men are kept out of the equation. Hair care should be an important part of any person’s day, man or woman. Now, while you might only be considering the hair atop your head, you’d be neglecting the hair that sits upon your face.

A well-groomed beard is a wonderful thing, and, through unfortunate circumstances, beard care has dropped off over the years — through the times when the glorious beard began to wane. Thankfully, we can all breathe a sigh of relief, as the beard has entered its majestic return over the past decade, with men growing out their facial hair and taking care of it.

The economy goes to show for it too, as the male grooming market’s projected compound annual growth rate (CAGR) is expected to grow by 5.2%, while the market is expected to reach a value of $60.7 blllion just by 2020. Compare that to the hair care industry, which is expected to reach $91 billion by the year 2019 and you see just how popular male grooming has become, and for good reason.

We all know a poorly maintained beard — it’s likely that you see multiple of them everyday: dried out hair, dead ends, patchy and un-maintained. But it doesn’t have to be this way; there’s better ways to treat your beard. While you might already hit your beard with shampoo and conditioner on a regular basis, you very well might be neglecting beard oil.

Beard oils, which are created with essential oils and vitamins, are used in maintaining the condition of your beard, such that you can ensure that it maintains it health, grows as it should, and such that your skin beneath does not become dried out. For those in particularly cold or dry climates, beard oils can be a savor, as they will ensure that your beard and face are properly moisturized, year round.

If you’re considering a product to seek out, consider opting for all natural beard oils and beard oil kits. These all natural beard oils will likely use organic natural oils, straying away from any nasty chemicals, as well as infusing natural vitamins (particularly Vitamin E) which are essential for hair and skin care. And if you’re seeking out that light, natural feel, one that won’t weigh your facial hair down or become too thick, consider reaching for lighter, all natural oils, which will easily be absorbed by your follicles, all without that heavy and greasy feeling of hair oil.

The best time for you to apply beard oil is right after you’re done with your morning shower, as this is the best time for your face and hair to absorb these oils (as your pores will be more open, along with your follicles being more receptive). Some naturally scented beard oil can go a long way too, provide that warm, tingly feeling you’d get out of peppermint-based oils, or the subtle, refreshing smell you’ll get out of lavender-based oils.

If you’re a man with a beard — whether large or small — who has yet to have used beard oils, find some natural ones and give them a try. Trust us. Your beard will look incredibly rich and healthy in no time.
