Beard Styling 101
- Match Your Beard to Your Face - Make sure you look great by growing a beard that looks good with how your face is shaped. Rounder faces can add some length with a longer goatee while the rectangular-jawed men would look great with short sides and a full goatee. Have a pointier face? Go long!
- Wash it Often - Just like your regular hair, you have to wash your facial hair. A freshly cleaned beard not only looks better but also encourages hair growth because dead skin cells are washed away. If your facial hair gets itchy, giving it a wash can help with the itch.
- Make Sure it’s Neat - Beards might be back but looking like a hobo isn’t. Make sure your beard stays under control by getting regular trims and using a widetooth comb.
- Get Moisturizing - One more reason for itchy faces is under-moisturized skin. Keep it hydrated with beard balms or oils. The correct product can hook you up with style, control and moisture all. The same thing goes for mustache wax if your ‘stache needs some love.
- Keep Healthy - To make sure your beard keeps growing well you need to do a little work on your lifestyle. Eat right, sleep enough and hit the gym. Wham bam beard.
